I gotta wonder why op is hell-bent on trying to make a case to vote for Hillary when I'm 1000% sure everyone in this comm has already made up their mind about her. No matter how you present it, be it ~humanizing her, repeating her very early work, or anti-Trump, she's still a candidate with a negative approval rating within the last 10 days, AFTER the DNC. People are gonna vote how they want to vote.

Ehh OP can have points for trying and I think it's a response to the "there are no reasons to vote for Clinton" kind of articles. But this is a small comm in a small dying blogging site so idk existential crisis goin on in here maaaaannnnn

Sort of. But it's more a response to people IN THIS COMM complaining that no one ever gives them reasons to vote FOR Clinton, just reasons NOT to vote for Trump.

And even though this is "a small comm in a small dying blogging site," it's the only place where I come to talk about politics. (Although I have started tweeting a lot more, but so far I feel like I'm firing things off into oblivion, rather than initiating a conversation.)

oh broski stay far far away from Twitter. It is a hive of scum and villainy that is sinking financially and trying to keep their more extreme / vocal ppl to ballast itself.

Which is kind of a shame bc I can see the value of Twitter in emergencies and fast response situations but it's basically turned into a circlejerk of internet celebrity'ism :|

Trump would cultivate what Mitt Romney accurately described as “trickle-down racism” - i.e., a national climate in which bigotry flares up against minority groups like Mexicans and Muslims.

Sadly this is already happening and I don't know how to undo it.
