Please. "Chimps" is putting so many filters on the poo poo that was slung at the Obamas that you might as well be lying. Yes, they were called chimps, but I can think of a word that starts with N that they were called about 500,000,000 times more than that, though. While we're living in the worst reality right now with Trump having any semblance of power, we really weren't doing well off with society's racism for the 8 years prior.

I'm backing Hillary on this one as it supports my longstanding belief the only DNC wants Bernie's email list because they are too stupid and lazy to do the hard work of canvassing. It also fits with reports the final Hillary GOTV efforts had a nasty habit of reaching out to Trump/Other voters who were still on old lists.

She's got a point as far as ambitious women are concerned, but yeah, between that and her Sgt. Pepper headline, not exactly batting 1000 on easily digestible concepts here.

It's a different kind of internet broke-brainedness where you can only think about media as being a collection of types and ideas

I remember seeing a screenshot of TVTrope's original writing section (people pitching and writing their own ideas for stories) and seeing a post that was literally like "My world is an After the End setting that uses Alternative calendar with some elements of Raygun Gothic. My hero is an Unwilling chosen one with an Animal Companion and a Bumbling sidekick who has to Save the girl to save the world..." etc etc

TVTropes starts with what might be a reasonable idea (here are some things that stories do a lot that don't really have a name, here's how they usually affect the story). But that breaks down when you have to make 300 different tropes to describe "types" of sidekicks or when you start trying to categorise real events based on obscure terminology that's just derived from references (sort of like tying everything back into Harry Potter!)

There's a good number of leftist POC folks but they definitely have been marginalized during and after the primaries. Once they started vocally supporting Bernie or criticizing the Democrat's Russia obsession, you suddenly don't seem em on tv as much anymore.
