By the way if anyone wants to go down a related rabbit hole, Check out The Monster of Florence ... featuring the nutty sherlock holmes-wanabe guy from the Kercher/Knox case (Giuliano Mignini).

They. Are. The. Same. Fight.

Hillary Clinton is the first female presidential nominee of a major party, and someone who should, arguably, be president right now. Dismissing her is perpetuating sexist bullshit. Seriously fuck off with that.

Every time people put her on the same level as the old white-dude fraud she legitimately beat by millions of votes, they are asking us to be silent or forget about the double standards she is facing. Every time a non-scandal is breathlessly built up (without checking facts) because surely she must be guilty of…

So when is this “women’s” site going to stop pushing faux-conspiracies aimed at discrediting the first female nominee of a major party?

Clinton has broken new ground as a woman in politics. The outsized hatred and slandering directed at her (including this article) are symptomatic of sexism in our society and the barriers women still face. That’s why we can’t let this go. There is no ‘moving on’ from the systemic oppression of half the population.

Just remember... both parties are the same. /s

Hey, crazier things have happened. :)

Also, I don’t know if you are from the US, but I’d guess that a lot of that “two-decades plus low” is the result of Dixiecrats having finally given up even the pretence of belonging to a party they never actually voted for.

I edited my comment to acknowledge the other one. I think most of the popularity polls on off-election years are pretty useless.

He got beat in the real popularity contest by about 4 million votes.

I’m all for getting anyone from Iowa or New Hampshire off of positions of power in the DNC. Those states (two of the whitest in the union and not representative of our country or party) need to lose their privileged positions.

You do you.

Being on Trump Jr’s side and arguing that he’s ‘winning’ are different things.

Are you sure? It seems pretty in line with the Jezebel article linked in her first paragraph. Also, if you can’t really tell if it’s sarcasm does the intention actually matter? It’s bad either way.

Since when did anyone believe that leftists/liberals can’t be abusive dickbags? You only had to talk to women (especially in 2016) to know better.

At least The Root doesn’t have white contributors. It also (in my opinion) kicks Jezebel’s ass from an advocacy pov.

I’m thinking of Hugo Schwyzer. I forget his specific list of horribleness.

Really? I don’t see how Weinstein has affected any Democratic politician’s vote on any issue.

Yup. It’s always a woman’s fault. Specifically Hillary’s if we can twist it that way.
