Day 1 was a barn burner. I personally think Day 2 was fine, but not to the same level. We’ll see where day 3 takes us!

Scheduled speakers:

    Please let this be the end of the Clinton dynasty. Just F OFF already!

      OK, real talk… What dynasty?

      No seriously, what fucking dynasty?

      Bill Clinton was president. Hillary Clinton - who is not his descendant and has her own successes from before and after his presidency - has every right to her own career. Their daughter has shown no interest in becoming a politician.

      So… what dynasty? Where are the multiple generations of Clinton politicians dominating some aspect of American life? Is there also an Obama dynasty, consisting solely of Barack and Michelle Obama? Their kids don’t seem interested in politics right now, either.

      You’re not angry because Hillary Clinton has her own career and ambitions, are you? Because telling the “Clinton dynasty” to “F OFF” sure seems like you’re just angry at a “dynasty” of a single married couple.

        Hillary should forever be clowned on. She literally gave the world a Trump presidency. Her ego got us into this mess.

          By winning the party’s nomination and running for president? The fact that she failed to beat Trump doesn’t mean she didn’t try.

          Or wait… Are you one of those conspiracy theorists who thinks the DNC stole the nomination from Bernie? Bernie supporters stole the nomination from Bernie - and I say that as someone who freaking loves Bernie Sanders and voted for him in the primaries. With all the loud, public demonstrations they did in 2016, you know what they didn’t do? They didn’t 1) fucking register as Democrats, and 2) fucking vote in the primaries. Clinton won the primaries in a landslide.

          I have a good friend who worked for the Democratic party in Oregon. He strongly supported Bernie, too. But somehow, all his pleas to his fellow Bernie-or-bust types to actually register as Democrats for Oregon’s closed primaries fell on deaf ears. They preferred to march in the streets instead of march to the ballot dropbox and make a fucking difference.

              The Democratic party stopped a non-Democrat from getting their nomination?

              Holy fucking shit! Crime of the century! How DARE the Democratic party ensure a Democrat was the Democratic party’s nominee for President!

                  Independent. Not Democrat. The Democrats throw him bones because he caucuses with them.

                    Oprah said tonight she’s a registered independent. Do you Dems still want her vote or not?

            • @kescusay
              2•3 months ago

              Oh, so the Democratic establishment stopped Bernie supporters from voting in Democratic primaries? No? And your response was a non sequitur?

                  Here’s how this conversation has gone so far:

                  • You: Clinton dynasty!
                  • Me: One generation consisting of two people who aren’t even related isn’t a dynasty.
                  • You: (Topic change) Fuck responding to your point, I’m just here to hate on Clinton cheating her way into the nomination and giving us Trump!
                  • Me: She didn’t give us Trump, and you sound like a conspiracy theorist. Clinton didn’t cheat, she literally just got way more votes in the 2016 primaries because her voters showed up and Bernie’s didn’t.
                  • You: (Topic change) Fuck responding to your point, here’s an Instagram post that pushes my favorite conspiracy theories about the DNC, none of which acknowledge that Clinton’s voters turned up and Bernie’s didn’t!
                  • Me: Just gonna point out that the DNC didn’t stop Bernie’s supporters from voting.
                  • You: (Topic change) I said, fuck responding to your point, here’s a random video from some guy arguing that both parties are the same!

                  Since that’s how this has gone, here’s my last response on this thread:

                  • Me: Why hasn’t literally everyone blocked this guy yet? Well, I guess I’ll do my part.

                  I cordially invite you to reassess how you interact with people, but you’ve lost the opportunity to do that with me. Bye.

            I’m not a Democrat nor Republican. I live in Los Angeles. I don’t vote for warmongers. I’m proud that I morally did not vote for Hillary.

              Hillary gave the world a Trump presidency!

              Well what did you do to stop a Trump presidency?

              Fucking nothing and I’m proud of it!

              • @return2ozma
                -5•3 months ago

                I’m in California. Didn’t matter who I voted for

                  Sounds like Hillary did more to stop a Trump presidency than you’d suggest.

                  It’s too bad Berniebros love Bernie so much that when he endorsed Clinton they couldn’t even be bothered to listen to him.

                    Except sully herself by stepping foot in those icky swing states.
