We would have Killer "antivax" Mike ads instead of Lena Dunham. Which I'll admit is probably a marginal improvement

Killer Mike appealed to the minority underclass and millenials. Lena Dunham appealed to exactly nobody outside of rich white women.

a very large portion of what was said in support of hillary and condemnation of bernie was actually untrue horseshit that ultimately cost the election and while i respect that y'all want the thread to be more things than just saying that alone, if you don't create space to recognize the quite literally MAGNIFICENT and multilayered inept, cack-handed failure of Certain Folk to understand the community in which they live then its just idle chat about why blacks, latinos, and women didn't break for a lady who won the primary someho--oh wait we're not talking about that.

So when we talk about Hillary voters in the general election class,

You are talking about minorities. We voted for Hillary.

You are talking about women. We voted for Hillary.

However,

Young white men with college degrees and in larger numbers white men without college degrees in large part voted for Trump.

Millenials had lower turnout (stayed home)

Left leaning independents voted third way or sat out.

So say it with me class, white men of all stripes voted for Trump, and those of them that did not agree with Trump but wanted to remain ideologically pure let him become president.

Millenials who at least have youth and naïveté to excuse them also sat home and let a racist clown become president.

Millennials and left leaning independents were what made up Bernie's voter base.

The party was split, and frustration led the Bernie supporter to stay home.

So stop blaming Hillary supporters.

That is tantamount to deliberately knocking over a glass and then lashing out at the concept of the glass existing.

When action was required, so called activists preferred to make an ideological point instead. That is fine by the way.

Just stop stringing up the only people who bothered to do something to fix the problem.

Your going to have more of these articles and most of them are just people venting. The majority of these people have never given a rats rear end about politics so to them it's all just loud oppressive noise.

See the problem is that these people actually believe this poo poo all the time and are willing to spout off about it, not just post-election when they're stressed and need to ~vent~. I'm not going to excuse what is frankly hateful rhetoric wrapped up in identity politic language because something bad just happened.

I just saw this thing on Facebook. Some people want to make wearing a safety pin a thing to indicate solidarity with oppressed people. Apparently this is worse than being a Trump supporter?

I get that it's kind of low effort, but shouldn't we all try to be supportive instead of rabidly tearing each other down?

This is probably some kind of *-splaining. Sorry.

its garbage slacktivism and IMO infantilizes marginalized groups (I dunno about you but when I think of safety pins the first thing I think of are diapers)

Best case it's some dope who means well putting something on to let everyone know they're One Of The Good Ones, at worst it's a bigot disguising themselves so they can get close toward a target

I wouldn't say it's worse than being a Trump supporter but A. if you're going to be supportive toward the oppressed why not just be supportive, and B. the virtue signaling involved is the toothless kind of faux-activism that got us here

Please do not compare the actual genius politician Merkel with the toxic gently caress up that is the Clinton name.

Anyway, Merkel grew up in the impoverished East Germany, was even approached by the Soviet secret service, but in the end chose public service, and didn't even profit from her career by making hilariously overpriced speeches.

Angela is all that Hillary wanted to be, but infinitely more competent and more humane.

what the gently caress is this neoliberal nonsense

ironic that he's telling "LGBT" people that they don't need to worry, considering that trans people are absolutely going to see their legal rights undermined and stripped away under Republican rule

and I doubt very much that a Republican-dominated federal government would do much of anything in response to anti-gay discrimination by the individual states

but white-collar gay men like himself will be fine, and state-level discrimination would only ever happen in those backwards red states and not in his own state, so as far as he's concerned there's nothing to worry about

imo his message was "things aren't nearly as bad as they were before and they won't get worse unless we do nothing about it except cower in fear" which is exactly how I feel
