Just a reminder that Hillary lost the election for all of us by running the most pathetic campaign possible without visiting key states while she relaxed on the coasts talking to donors

Also reminder that I voted for Bernie in the primary

That Hilary thread is a new level of pathetic hypocrisy and tribalism. The 2016 election completely destroyed what little sense that community had left.

I can only imagine the meltdowns if the Democrats fail to capture the House in the 2018 elections and/or if Trump gets re-elected.

[Boredfrom]

Clinton may have been better candidate than Trump, but he was a horrible candidate with a campaign as shallow as Trump.

I don't think you get to call the person who lost one of the easiest elections in US history "the better candidate".

Man, even without the context, is obvious that it was a sarcastic clap.

Sure as fuck she would be better than Trump. But not exactly a fan of her to begin with.

Some of the mods also don't dare to question the judgment of their 'minority' co-workers because they fear the backlash and dog-piling.

Christ. If no one else will do it... *rolls up sleeves* Hey, Shostakovich, get me a mod account instantly and I'll do it. Slayvern think he can ban "white tears" posts that call out that bullshit? Not on my watch, bitch.

Edit: And I don't even visit the fucking board and I'll do it simply because that shit should be called out and reversed if they want to save the stupid board.

She's a much better politician in the system that's still left leaning, so yeah I'd much rather have her than Trump obviously. That still doesn't change the fact that she's pretty vile and toxic enough to have lost what really could have been a slam dunk of an election. She was a horrendous candidate that lost because of it.

Anybody who even remotely sticks with her after that and considers themselves to be in a good spot politically is what I would call a moron.

Trump was the best candidate of the 2016 election cycle.

The GOP had garbage candidates because Ryan wouldn't have a go at it (El Jebe, Rubio bot, Chris Christie, Ben Carson, the Zodiac Killer) none could lead the party so Trump hijacked it.
On the other hand the Dems had already set Hillary up to win, the first female president after the first black president. The political masterminds were furiously masturbating they were going to pull it off.

Then Donald John Fucking Trump after offending half the planet including the pope and a handicapped reporter beats Hillary Clinton like a chump and gets his revenge for Obama's White House dinner roast.

You better start believin' in the lord bitches, this is biblical revenge. Next time it's the flood.

You spent a lot of time in leftist online spaces that are geared towards women's rights or lgbt stuff? I'm not talking GAF, I'm talking the even more dedicated spaces than that. She's a dime a dozen, fits the stereotype to a pretty insane degree. Being that type of "ally" and being that level of vapidly stupid are just kind of how it is for the most part. I mention Sweet Nicole cause she was a founder of this mess and she's from around those spaces it looks like, so I doubt she'd think much of it.

The sad thing is that many posters didn’t learn shit from it. Now we have stuff like: “Stop complaining about the DACA. Everything is going to be fine when the blue wave comes and we control the house and the senate”.

[Himu]

Hillary loses the easiest election predicted ever and she blames everything but her own staff and the DNC. She doomed an entire generation. The presidency was the icing on the cake. I was fighting for SCOTUS. And then after the fact she still won’t disappear. She still won’t leave and people still furiously defend her and her failure. It’s maddening. I fucking hate Hillary Clinton and fuck the Democrats for going with such a bullshit candidate with no message beyond the status quo and identity politics.

Kirblar tried to save face:

Yup the USA Today story completely retextualizes this to serious anger.

Excelsiorcief tried to help him:

It's impressive though that US Today did a far better job contextualizing this in the here and now than the NYT.... especially because all the US Today had to do was going through the shit head's twitter account.

What a tool.

It's been steadily getting worse since before that, I'd say since some of the "woke" trends started back around Idk 2012(yeah I know about the 60s blah blah I mean the more mainstream online shit from recent years)? Started to get normal on campus around me around that time, cause reasons. The crazies then were on like tumblr and stuff, then twitter, then other places etc. By 2015 that type of stuff was pretty normal, then Trump happened and people lost their shit. That's at least how I experienced, shit was already getting normal and that election kicked things into hyperdrive.

Like again, why would they bother canning Morrigan if she's just like any other normal online feminist lady? For every 1 space and every sensible ally I've met, there's a Morrigan Stark saying enough of the right shit somewhere in spaces that are a bit more extreme like GAF and now ERA. Shit's just the new normal around there, so fuck it.

Kinda sucks cause people like her and Nicole make me avoid places that are "lgbt friendly" a lot because I don't want to deal with people like that. I know lots of cool places that aren't like that, but it's not worth checking. It's like when I checked out TransGAF and I was so uncomfortable I walked away pretty quickly. That type of stuff, especially the ERA crazies, gives us such a bad name that I almost just went back to the closet for a bit. Can't be understated how much I despise people like Sweet Nicole over stuff like that along with my own personal beef.

Or was a piece aimed at Donald Trump's 2016 general election opponent, timed to run 12 hours later w/ a byline credited to the "Trump Whisperer" simply the price of maintaining access to a man with a notoriously short attention span?

Also "Many people are saying" is a line straight out of Trump's playbook

https://www.resetera.com/threads/many-people-are-upset-at-the-new-york-times-who-dont-watch-fox-news-heres-why.19180/#post-3809427

You have gone completely off the fucking rails if you are peddling a conspiracy that Maggie Haberman withheld knowledge of an attempt to fire Mueller so that she would maintain access to the White House. We are one year within the administration, so if publishing that really would burn the whole bridge down, that's a hell of a bridge to burn 25% of the way in, not even making it in time for the tail end of the Mueller investigation. And furthermore this totally ignores the leaks and leaks and leaks the NYT published liberally (pun unintended) for six to nine months that were seeping of the very walls of the west wing before Rank Pubus locked it down like a SAT exam in highschool.

Which is more likely: that urban liberals are actually totally out of their depth when it comes to understand rural and "average" (white) America so they fell over backwards doing David Attenborough pieces on the topique du an... or that there is white nationalist normalization coming from WITHIN THE NEWSPAPER ("they're comin' outta the goddamn walls!") in order to balance their journalistic integrity with "access".

What you are describing does exist but this thread is too much. And furthermore, the NYT has always had conservative sympathizers, in both its opinion space (which is SEPARATE AND DISTINCT FROM ITS EDITORIALS) and its reporting (see: the whole fucking Iraq War, also the pro Clinton bias over softie Barrack Obama during 2008). Why else do you think William Saffire was one of their most venerated columnists for years?

[Great Rumbler]

Hillary? Never heard of her.

[Nintex]

Of all the conspiracies this is really the dumbest, Kristoffer continues to drop the truth bombs

Also wtf is "access" even for? The president just lies to the press. His press secretary lies to the press. The Mueller story came from a leak (probably his lawyer), just like most of the interesting stories. Access is completely worthless, everyone in the media already knows this.

On Neogaf I would get massive dogpiles for defending Bernie on the most innocuous infractions like him simple having the gall to stay in the race after it was unlikely for him to win. Seriously, if these allegations surfaced about Bernie there would be such a furore but oh well, those type of 'what-if' comparisons are silly. I just wish people would accept Clinton's error without framing this debate around 2016, Trump and Bernie.
