AM I OVERREACTING OR IS THIS REALLY VERY NOT OK?

What he said was literally true. The cops do protect the “us” he’s talking about. Rich white guys.

I hate the idea that we have to respect police officers for the sole reason that they are police officers. People give two reasons for it: (1) “they have a super dangerous job and could get killed on any given day” and (2) “they’re risking their lives to protect you.” Well, actually, being a police officer is like the

YES!

I’m an educated, white, middle-class woman, and I find the idea that I should, at least on some level, favor Hillary because of her identity (instead of Bernie, whose policies are in closer alignment with what I believe in) is insulting. It seems like an appeal to self-interest over the common good, and that’s slimy

I found that jaw-dropping. I know these formidable women belonged to a different wave of feminism than I belong to, but to suggest that anyone who isn’t aligned with a rich white warmongering corporatist is a bad feminist smacks of a worldview that is wholly unfamiliar with intersectional feminism, really any sort of

Somehow I don’t think “respect for police officers” is the answer to the whole police officers shooting unarmed citizens problem we have in this country. It’s kind of hard to respect an institution that keeps shooting your family, friends, and neighbors in the back on a regular basis. That’s just me though. I could be

Hey guys, remember when those sexist “Obama boys” were attacking Clinton online everywhere you looked?

My partner counts Steinem amongst her shortlist of heroes and she’s pissed. Like, way to negate the agency of women, Gloria fucking Steinem.

The sound was TERRIBLE. I couldn’t hear any of them singing clearly.

Ok, it wasn’t mentioned at all on the other article either, but was it just me and my sister who seriously couldn’t hear anything? I wouldn’t know if she repeatedly said “negro” or not, because I couldn’t hear a damn word anyone was singing.

As Jeb Lund wrote in Rolling Stone last week:

Like the default being crying “sexist!” and doing every possible to avoid having to address actual issues instead of perceived attacks on one of the most privileged women in the world?

tfw madeline albright calls you a sex traitor

has anyone written anything on rude Hillary fans yet? Because I’ve seen some really gross things written about Bernie, too.

Oddly enough, none other than Madaline Albright and Gloria Steinem came out as sexist ‘Hillbros’ this weekend. My mom was especially pissed at what the former SecState said. Implying that women who don’t vote for Hillary are hellbound is a horrible thing to say.

oh yeah, there have been lots of pieces popping up here in the u.s. about the clintons’ collective decisions to the detriment of black (u.s. and latin/francphone, bearing honduras and haiti in mind) americans. there was a really good one on salon the other day. i was little when bill was in office (i was born in ‘83),

You honestly always have the best comments, i just find it so disgusting that the top rated comment on here is praising Madeleine and acting like she is feminist icon. I am finding Hillary supporters to be even more offensive than Bernie Bro’s, they do not care about anyone outside the US nor do they care about WOC.

It’s been depressing to watch Clinton’s supporters try to bolster her campaign with these false and divisive narratives about sexism. It’s practically Trump-esque the way they’re using identity politics.

“BernieBros” is exaggerated bullshit. Some people just prefer Bernie.
