Ask me about Briar Rose and Chicken Chaser.
"She persisted" originally referred to Warren but yeah it was co-opted by Hillary and that's almost certainly what the stickers are evoking.

The people who are not wonkishly paying attention to politics would assume it's about Hillary.

Which overlaps immensely with the people who care about stickers.

gently caress I post in the suck zone and know the history of it and I immedialy assume Hillary because it was associated with her almost immediately because Warren and Hillary are both females, and Hillary has persisted since the 90s so she's the original persister who's warren some berniecrat that wouldn't endorse mi abulaaaa~

I'm serious, I legitimately wonder whether the majority of people who have heard the phrase "she persisted" could correctly identify who the pronoun originally represented

I'd be interested to see data on this.

a shitload of people stole it from warren and used it for hillary instead. kind of problematic, imo?

it would be more accurate to say that the meme became about women in politics in general. it obviously does not make sense for hillary, given that she has clearly not persisted as no one has seen her in 6 months outside of when she occasionally appears on a stage for a few minutes and gets mad about 2016

1) Hillary is women in politics
2) Hillary has been persisting since the 90s

good news, it appears that hillary clinton is not referenced other than a first page cameo in the book

other news, it appears neither is elizabeth warren
