You should see my original post. There’s a couple geniuses that are trying to say that I’m using the same logic that people use when racists think that all Muslims are terrorists.

So, basically, poor people don’t deserve to have pets. Got it.
Having supportive family to watch a furbaby while away is helpful. My parents watched over my dog while I was waiting for a dog-friendly unit to open in the complex I was moving into. Was a hard 3 months without her, but she was happy to have me back when she was able to rejoin me.
Ok but that’s exactly my point - if your finances are so tight that you can’t afford the extra however-many hundred dollars a year it costs to live in a place that allows pet, you shouldn’t have gotten a pet in the first place. If you are sooooooo strapped for cash that you live paycheck to paycheck and a change of a…
I live in a major-ish city, but I rent, so I don’t know much about HOA fees. I’ve never had a problem finding a pet-friendly place in my price range, which is low compared to what other people pay around here. I have paid pet deposits everywhere that I’ve lived since I got my dog- the most recent one was a…
If a man votes for Hillary Clinton, should he be congratulated for overcoming his gender? If he votes for Bernie Sanders, should he be pitied for being unable to overcome his gender? Ridiculous.
yep. or when Bernie supporters will go “well why don’t you do some research and look into his policies, you’ll change your mind”
Every single time he comes out to defend something he is called out on, it furthers my opinion that although he really really means well, he still doesn’t really *get* the experiences of people not like him. Privilege is invisible, and I’m not sure he’s doing enough to make sure he sees it all the time. Like with his…
But Bernie, bro, a lot of your followers are explicitly saying just that and losing their shit anytime someone attempts to even mention the word Hillary let alone discuss the issues at hand. Also, you might want to mention that all non uterus having folks have had a stranglehold on this whole process for eternity, so…
Here’s one...this election is too damn long already.
After encountering Berniebros, I’ve been mulling that over too. On many issues Clinton and Sanders are similar (I’ve heard there is greater than 80% agreement on concrete issues), so a lot of people are probably making their decisions on feelings for the candidate, public speaking style... That leaves a lot of room…
Yes to this. While I like that electing Hillary would be historic, I think she would be a better president than Bernie.
My favorite uncle once told me, “show me your friends and I’ll show you who you are.” It’s probably the best advice I ever got and I feel it applies to the berniebros situation.
Exactly. Obama energized black Americans to come out and vote. No one reputable chastised them for it. It’s significant for our country to elect a woman president and I can see why it matters so much to older feminists especially. I’m reminded of an elderly woman meeting Secretary Clinton and how meaningful it was to…
Everyone seems to think that saying “I’m voting for Clinton because she’s a woman” really means “I’m *only* voting for Clinton because she’s a woman, and I obviously just haven’t *researched* enough and only vote on genitalia”
I’m supporting Clinton because I think she’ll be a better general election candidate than Sanders and I think she’ll be a better president too. However I am also supporting her because she’s a woman. And everytime I see any sort of criticism of that line of thinking it just reinforces my belief that we have to…
“A few weeks ago, a man emailed me to “congratulate” me for “overcoming my gender” and voting for Bernie Sanders.”
Yeah, guys, I’m not calling for a White Entertainment Network or a Men’s History Month, OR a straight pride parade, so what’s going on with your shit, guys?
Thank you. I was actually about to type exactly the same words: “however the fuck she wants”. Regardless of how the Millennial Bernie Brigade thinks she should vote and the ever-so-subtle ways they come up with to say so.
