Groovelord Neato posted:the gently caress is this. That's so hilariously uptight. "Making it legal will mean more people will use it which is inherently bad!" Also she had to put in her dig at expunging convictions which says what she's probably really pissed off at but knows enough not to say it so brazenly.

If you listen to her you'll see she has a point. I would be a better person if I listened to her more often than I do. So I guess what I'm saying is that maybe she has a point about the USPOL crew's criticism of Clinton.

If you listen to her you'll see she has a point. I would be a better person if I listened to her more often than I do. Wait, is she even making a point about criticism of Clinton? I got the impression that the tweet she linked was referring to people attacking this woman for a question she asked Clinton in an interview (with the general message being that it was absurd she was attacked despite having a positive view of Clinton herself and the criticism being very minor). Regarding criticism of Clinton, my feeling is that you can make an accurate point regarding disproportionate criticism of Clinton (or other women/minorities in politics) in general, but that such points have no place when interacting with specific individuals (assuming their criticism is actually valid and not inherently sexist/racist itself, in which case it should just be attacked on the basis of being wrong/bigoted). edit: Such criticism can also make sense in the context of a publication or organization, but I feel like there are a number of issues with attributing someone's (presumably not directly sexist) individual criticism of Clinton to sexism. Even if you can somehow prove that they disproportionately focus on Clinton, this can easily be attributed to the fact that Clinton receives disproportionate focus by US media in general (and is thus going to produce more opinions in response). Basically, it's an important and useful discussion to have, but it shouldn't come up in the context of a rebuttal to an individual making the criticism.

gently caress that poo poo the DNC should raise its own money if they can. They're having problems because it's clearly smarter to donate directly to campaigns you support but there's no real shortage of democratic money this cycle. The DNC got something valuable at a deeply discounted rate and are bitching they didn't get it for free. That's pathetic. If the DNC wants more money, they first need to prove they can use it effectively. Why would you even donate to the DNC in a midterm cycle anyway I mean gently caress?
