I don’t see how it’s relevant whether she’s left of Obama or not. She’s a hawk who helped legitimize a military coup overthrowing a left wing government in Honduras. She’s been an enthusiastic proponent of free trade, has played a significant role in expanding our brutal, racist prison system and accepts money from…

Couple of things:

Americans are overwhelmingly willing to vote for a woman, and Democrats and independents actually have a higher propensity to nominate a woman than a man. The problem isn’t sexist voters, it’s a sexist political machine. https://www.jacobinmag.com/2015/12/hillar…

But as usual, Clinton supporters derail the convo with…

Welcome to the Internet. People are ruder than they really should be. That doesn’t change the fact that “Bernie Bros” is a cynical ploy to divide and conquer the left wing by turning feminists against other progressives. Internet civility is absolutely an important conversation, but it’s a different conversation.

Gawker is literally the only outlet who doesn’t treat Bernie like a joke. If that’s bias, then Breitbart is objective.

Wait, in your mind criticizing Hillary for being too conservative or for not calling out Trump counts as “conservative talking points?” That’s nuts! Fiscal conservatives adore her because they understand she’s one of them, and the idealogues think she’s some kind of socialist.

Examples?

I agree it would have been best to avoid the topic altogether, but now that she’s got into Nancy Reagan and AIDS, she should have at least called Reagan out for not speaking up — even if only in a mild, “she did lots of good things, but one of her failings was...” way.

Democrats would be overjoyed to elect the first woman POTUS. If Wendy Davis were up for the nomination, Sanders wouldn’t stand a chance. All this “Bernie bros.” nonsense is just an attempt to distract us from the fact that Clinton is another center-right hawk. Sloganeering from mass murderers like Madeleine Albright…

Agreed.

To me, this goes beyond a gaffe — it shows a degree of indifference to the truth. Meanwhile, she’s up against an opponent whose integrity prevents him from denouncing Castro and Ortega, even when it’s sure to undermine him in Florida — someone incapable of playing politics. She’s not awful, but we have a much…

Right... people only criticize her because of Republican talking points. Not because of, say, her close connections to Wall St., past support of devastating free trade, willingness to play fast and loose with the historical record, participation in a military coup against a left wing democracy, and general…

Much safer to send redundant encrypted pigeons, while separately sending your encryption key with a group of dolphins. Nothing is more secure than a one-time pod.

“I can’t believe I just read the whole thing, but I do not need minutes of my life back. “

You never see two statements together on the Internet. That’s serious praise.

Yeah, it is a great story. But take a break from congratulating yourself for all the wonderful things you’ve done and how pro-sex worker you are, to recognize that “I Know Why the Caged Bird Hoes” reads as very racist, and that, whatever your intent, what you characterize as flippant comes off as racist and classist —…
