And as I said before, I own not campaigning actively for her. I never once said that I couldn’t do more. Of course I could have done more. We ALL could have done more. I’m confident you could have done more. And we should all be looking inward and thinking about what we could have done. That said, I did donate money…

I offer my background to further my point that there’s a bigger picture. If there are a number of people who are reliably engaged over time who are not engaging at all or to the same level, that might bear some scrutiny. One person or a few people can easily be chalked up to personal issues. But in the aggregate, it’s…

I’m at work and on a mobile. So yes, when I come home tonight I can paw through some of the conversations that spanned multiple posts by people that show some pretty gross name calling. Since you seem to have rather a lot of free time on your hands, maybe while you look through some of those looking for more evidence…

Also, I’m not really sure how calling out comments I made suggesting that neither Hillary nor Bernie supporters could be considered a monolithic group support your screed, but sure. . .

There were numerous instances where people here said that I had “internalized misogyny” and called me a Bernie Bro. And that’s fine. I never responded by calling them any of the gross slurs people used against fervent HRC supporters. And in those comments are places where I say that some of her policies were very…

Oh dear, your focus on “feelings” is bordering on willful ignorance. That’s not what this is about and I think you know this.

The tragedy of the commons

My, what an interesting, “alternative” retelling of our earlier exchange. Your opinion was that even in a forum here at Jezebel ostensibly for political discourse, it was heresy to utter a discouraging word about HRC. It emboldened enemies and turned away would-be voters in droves - nay, lost the election for her! -…

Firstly, why do you feel the need to treat Bernie supporters as one monolithic group? They were just as diverse as Hillary supporters, warts and all.

if Hillary got all of the Stein votes, she still would have lost. And if you think a single Johnson voter was ever going to break for her, I have a bridge to sell you. Move the fuck on.

You keep repeating “fact” after your specious statements, as though it will magically make them factual. Kind of like when Trump has to tell everyone he’s the best.

Thank you for your service!

So what you’re saying is that you are unfamiliar with the concept of direct action or the many historical victories in which it has played a vital role? Did your school get its textbooks from Texas?

That point of view simply fuels your desire to blame only one small slice of people whose actions led to the situation we’re in. Reductivism in action.

Yup. Totally not that 6+ million who voted for him nor the millions who didn’t vote.

Also, I forcefully disagree with the Hillary went too far left because of that asshole Bernie and lost the Rust Belt. Centrism has not been working well for the Dems. Obama is one recent success story in a sea of blue losses.

Our experiences obviously differ. I saw a lot of Clinton supporters who saw even the slightest glimmer of discomfiture and pounced on it and the person, accusing them of ruining the message. And I would think that hearing from people about their concerns is exactly what you want to do when crafting effective…

It was usually in response to someone here nuking me for deigning to not be an enthusiastic supporter. And I’m not talking about trade secrets or illegal activity but instead a culture and approach that, in some instances, was very slimy. I was also quick to point out that friends who worked for her at State have been…

Her awards season red carpetry is going to be EPIC.

Electricity demand has actually been decreasing and that trend is poised to continue, including in the west. You get brown-outs from load imbalances - spikes in demand at specific times. Google the duck curve. This is why everyone is working on how best to integrate intermittent renewables into the grid at higher…
