The Clintons seem to be a magnet for rape accusations and accusations of defending rapists. I thought that video was just more of the same.

Why did you feel the need to defend the Clintons by using a dehumanizing and lovely attack but not feel the need to check your source first?


Noam Chomsky posted:

No but you could be more understanding when someone explains themselves, but then you couldn't get your hate on.

The issue is that your explaination thus far has been "no big deal guys, I though she was on the bad guy team."

The attack you tried to use is wrong regardless of the politics of the individual. I wish I was more shocked at your claim to be left of center yet are so regressive on this issue.

Your "explanation" has not even remotely addressed "this sexual assault victim is crying fake tears because uhhhh" at all.

He asked a weaksauce energy independence question that alluded to pollution. It may have been the closest we've come in the entire election to addressing global warming, sadly.
It was actually a fine question really. It was asking how you were going to be environmentally friendly without killing the economy. One of the only policy questions of the night.

Meh you can have bad opinions and still be generally decent

Yeah it's not easy to parse. Her, Sotomayor and Kagan ruled against some truly lovely racist policies like Police using evidence gained from illegal traffic stops (which would reinforce the abuse of power that is being protested) but this seems like a statement that would rile the left up, particularly since Kaepernick has the stance of not trusting anyone in the system, full stop.

You have no high ground here. You apologized, then you went back and defended and explained and rationalized. If you want the conversation to move on, just say "I'm sorry" and leave it at that.

People with working empathy don't see a video of a girl crying in the bathroom about being a sexual abuse survivor and then call them a fake because she doesn't agree with them. You are still a shithead.

Noam Chomsky posted:

She's wondering why Hillary Clinton would perpetuate sexual assault or some dumb bullshit like that. Also - and I absolutely know I will get poo poo on for this here - she's fake crying. Such astroturf bullshit.

First reply:

Noam Chomsky posted:

Super vitriolic reaction to my post as predicted.

Sorry, I only watched a bit of the video and I thought she was saying she tried to ask Clinton a question, and was wondering why Clinton perpetuated sexual assault. I also thought the OP said /r/the_donald and 4chan were boosting the video.

I guess misinterpreting a video is indicative of me being a horrible monster who hates all sexual assault victims and thinks they're all lying fakers. It doesn't take much to make you people absolutely freak out.

So you lead off with a "gently caress all of you" and end with a "gently caress all of you", but we are all the real monsters because we decided to read your post and take it at face value.

It's not hard to apologize. Wanna know how? Take your post, and I'm only going to use words that you used, OK, so you had complete agency over this the entire time:

Bombed to poo poo, food shortages, pretty sure there aren't any functional hospitals left. Several hundred thousand civilians are still there with no way to get out.

The sample size was 100% during the tape release timing. So, this is probably Trump's floor and Hillary's ceiling. But if she holds onto even half that lead, it's a big win. At least 2008 sized.

Random thought out of nowhere, but where the gently caress is Sarah Palin? I figured she'd be offering her unique bit of word salad to anybody who'd listen right now and I can't remember the last time I've seen her on TV. Maybe that awkward appearance where she endorsed Trump?

Right wingin' bitter clingin' somethingsomething I'd have hoped she's dead as a political force by now.

This is going to make the polls worse for him, not better. Lashing out at other GOP will alienate all but his base.
