if someone new to the forum blew in here and did nothing but insult everyone, post a bunch of fake bs and receive repeated warnings from the mods in just a couple of days, pretty sure they'd be banned, and rightfully so.

he doesn't even have the excuse of not knowing the rules around here. it's nothing but shitpost after shitpost and since he showed up this thread has become terrible. good fucking riddance.

Eta: babydoll, i remember that sexist shit too, and you weren't the only one on the receiving end. we should be welcoming of people like this? no.

You realize he was being an obnoxious troll in all his posts, right?

I'm pretty sure that's why he enjoyed it...

I like how you consistently act like there's sexism involved here when I didn't vote for Kerry or Obama either. My views on the party and its top candidates really haven't changed with Clinton at the top of the ticket, but I was invested in the primary outcome for once thanks to Sanders.

I also voted for a female candidate (and ticket) for President in the general election before any of you, so there's that.

yep, he's been around a long, long time and insulted so many here along the way, including us longtime members and new ones. Yet lashes out when we dare to question anything he says.

Never have and never will stump for the right. But I am bracing myself for a Trump presidency thanks to the poor candidate you've chosen for the rest of us...

2020 should be fun. If Hillary is President, her supporters will be complacent concerning the primaries and it would be the perfect time to mount a challenge.

And I like how you consistently act as if it's the not voting for Hillary is the reason we call you out on your sexism. You are not sexist because you're not voting Hillary, no one ever even implied that. Your posts are viewed as sexist because they are filled with sexism, has nothing to do with Hillary.

Well, I'm all ears for examples. There's certainly examples of me being called out as sexist, usually quoting posts of mine that don't even remotely reference gender.

Face it, according to you, any slam on Hillary must be a slam from a woman-hater who is also racist because a lot of non-whites voted for her. Quit acting like you get to be the arbiter that decides all of this shit when your own candidate refers to blacks as "super predators" (along with the constant race baiting of her 2008 campaign) and the fake planned parenthood videos as "disturbing"...the only marginalized and scorned member of society that she wants to truly help is Hillary Clinton.

No, you can deflect all you want but this has nothing to do with Hillary. I've pointed them out and you chose to deflect then as well, but most had to do with saying women couldn't think for themselves or speaking for the motivation of women without any quote or hint as to what they are thinking.

Her long record of public service suggests otherwise. The many individuals the DNC has brought up this week would beg to differ with your assessment as well.

Oh, also? This is the sexism we're talking about. How you presume to know what motivates her, even though you clearly have no personal insight into her life.

[mikal]

I just don't understand how Hilary could possibly focus on the job as President when she also needs to focus on cooking and cleaning. That's the one advantage of having male Presidents as they haven't had to focus on those items in addition to a very stressful job.

By this logic, nobody can then speculate on the motives of someone running for office. But to call me sexist because I'm assuming what Clinton would do in office or what drives her is completely preposterous.

Nope. Never recall saying anything like that in these threads, especially since women (and young women for that matter) were hardly running to the polls to vote for Clinton in droves, thus giving me nothing to gripe about.

Plus, the only group anybody had evidence of where her being female played a big role in getting support was with older white women, a group that likely would have voted for her anyway given her history with the party and that Clinton voters skew older in the first place...to everybody else on the left, it's a non-issue in 2016.

I don't follow you either on the sexism stuff.

When I vote or decline to vote for any candidate I have some knowledge on, I presume to have an idea of what motivates the person. It's just part of the total package.

And how many of us have personal insights into any major candidates' lives ?

Taken in isolation, sure, I could see how that sounds unfair. But it's not as if you haven't been posting here for some time.

How can we even begin to imagine the disgusting, classless, offensive creature that he is occupying that role? Spewing nonsense from the pulpit? Policies aside, I actually think anyone who thinks Trump's temperament is at all acceptable should feel deeply ashamed. We are all better than this.

So, so true.
