    Almost all these commenters are complaining, but I’ve had so many people tell me the exact same thing when I talk about third party voting.

    This is literally actually just sexism, I don’t really see any other reason for everyone to be suddenly hating on this comment when it comes out of Hilary Clinton’s mouth, but turn around and upvote the exact same comments on Lemmy every time this topic comes up.

      If you run into a version where Bill is saying it, and he may very well be, I’ll happily hate it too. There’s a flavour difference between some “In this house we believe in Science” sign in the yard capital L liberal saying it and an establishment ghoul on the caliber of (either) Clinton

          Every fifth political article including this one is related to the conflict of more progressive or leftist voters not wanting the highly establishment Joe “bussing policy, crime bill, I’m a Zionist” Biden. If you haven’t seen that then frankly I’m a little baffled

              Not gonna hear it from me, criticize away!

              I think this particular thing is more like: is my somewhat well intentioned but misguided neighbor coming to my house complaining that I’m killing the earth with my one monthly Ziploc bag or is Exxon Mobile coming and telling me that

              The first one is surely an eyeroll but the second one is a real circus act.

              So, while criticizing Biden might catch you heat from some random Vote Blue No Matter Who types, it’s real fuckin rich to hear it from as deep inside the machine as a Clinton

              He created and supported some of the most fucking atrocious bills to ever be fucking passed in recent history but he gets a pass for it now because… He hasn’t apologized but he’s older now? Like that’s it? People say he’s learned but has he? What signs is there for that?!

              This man started his career by ruining the life of his sister, and has been seeking power ever since, why is that a good man to save us from the horrors of Trump who is just a dumber version of Biden.

              Oh and you forgot big fan of mass incarceration.

              “Cadre of young people, tens of thousands of them, born out of wedlock, without parents, without supervision, without any structure, without any conscience developing because they literally … because they literally have not been socialized, they literally have not had an opportunity. And it’s a sad commentary on society. We have no choice but to take them out of society.”
