RustyBertrandThey don't burn witches to get rid of the witch. They do it to control all the women forced to watch the fire.
Labrador Girl@RustyBertrand Happily, she is also doing her thing *for us* and inviting us to laugh with her. ❤️😀
Chris Real@RustyBertrand The common phrase used by movies in films is "We need to make an example".
We know NOW that there IS a "vast far right conspiracy.
Hitler wasn't right. But Hilary was.
@RustyBertrand Full disclosure, I felt the 2016 election was a choice between Nixon in a dress vs. Mussolini in a power suit.
(Barrett Brown served 4 years in prison for exposing the Thiel surveillance empire—2 of them in pre-trial detention—while she was Sec. of State under Obama).
But at least Nixon had the dignity to resign when he was exposed.

David BarkinInteresting. So everyone who dislikes Clinton, dislikes ONLY because she's a strong Woman.
Oddly enough I disagree...
Stephen Matheson🌵🌲@Ulzana @RustyBertrand You disagree with something that only you wrote. It's not remotely related to the post you responded to. Pathetic.

AMEN!! It's not just Hillary. Ask any successful woman and you will hear how she is always told she's "too..." Too something, because she's never going to be told she's a powerful, successful woman, and that's worthy of praise. Compare the press for whip-smart Kamala Harris and Mike "Fence Post" Pence. Some bars are placed so they're impossible to jump.

Darwin Woodka@MHowell @RustyBertrand "too intense" in my case
@RustyBertrand usually they do it to steal her property
KenBallweg@RustyBertrand @spocko thus as it ever was.... also, most of the time when women get elected to positions of power, they do such a good job (Ardern, Merkel) it raises the bar too high for the good old boys to get over, and we don't want that do we fellas?
Well, yes, there was Thatcher, but... most of the time.
Nonce Olbrecht@RustyBertrand while this is true for the witches and perhaps on some lower level of consciousness it does apply loosely to Hillary or women of power, I think you're reading waaayy too much into the fact that most people really just don't like Hillary's stank ass face and completely out of touch demeanor. She is an institutional and corporate Democrat of the highest degree and a corrupt politician and if you don't think that plays into the opinion, then you're missing the forest for the tree
ThunderstrikeFuck that.
I am bound and determined that my friend's little daughter (who I adore) is going to grow up with as many strong women role models and fictional heroes as I can find. I am done with the misogynistic bullshit. Bring on the Hillary Clintons and Captain Janeways and Captain Marvels of the world.
Bynkii@RustyBertrand @arrjay watching the reply guys going on about how bad Hilary was thinking we forget how they specifically said they’d rather have Trump than Clinton since they couldn’t have Bernie.
I remember that tantrum.
apalu@RustyBertrand I agree with the overall point but Hillary was the protege of Henry Kissinger, we are not taking about a very aligned-with-anyone-here individual, just to keep to the facts

@RustyBertrand
when she comes out with, in the current phrase, no more fucks to give, and, as my generation had it, just tells it like it is, to burn her at the stake for that — well that’s not done to address Hillary Clinton. When the liberal bros go into hysterics about the nerve of her, they’re doing that for all the other women who might dare to be too ambitious. They’re doing it for the benefit of any little girls who might be watching. They’re doing it to teach us all a lesson.

CharLight@RustyBertrand "but but her emails" I hear that so freaking much around here and I'm like "well at least she didn't ignore subpoenas and testified for over 13 hours and nothing was found, so whatever point you were trying to make is null and void. But I like what you posted...sums it up nicely.
Connie Ko@RustyBertrand I still don't like Hillary Clinton personally, but this is a powerful message here.
Micky@RustyBertrand I wonder if there might have been a better example for your case.
