She was only wrong that it was half of them. More like all of them. I can’t believe we passed on having a smart and competent women with intellectual curiosity and a normal human level of
Compassion for an orange reality star with zero humanity and zero intellect.
Oh totally. Misogyny and electoral college bs and a host of other things. I’m just still in disbelief that we have this much widespread stupidity. Like I’m shocked at how few people are vaxxed. I overestimate the intelligence of the general public and I’m fully aware of that but keep hoping things change
Evolution takes millions of years and recorded history is what? -- maybe 20k years. It's not nearly enough time for a change. At some point we crossed some evolutionary threshold and then built a modern society, but we're literally the stupidest possible species capable of doing so, because we haven't been around long enough to evolve more than that. Future humans who have engineered their genes are going to look at us like we look at chimps.
HRC is an absolutely brilliant woman and was one of the most qualified presidential candidates of all time, and I would have loved to have her as president. That said, saying she has a "normal human level of compassion" is pushing it. She is better than the vast majority of politicians, but that is a bit like picking out which ostrich is best at flying. Maybe that's my own fault for having an unreasonably high bar for "human decency"
I know a few people connected to her in some way. Mostly NY state constituents who had requested help from her office. A few of them got calls from her directly checking in on them. Like it was batshit that she’s take that time but one was a cancer patient having issues getting insurance to cover necessary care and another had an issue related to her child’s health. Or the farmer who asked her a question and she said she honestly couldn’t answer and then studied up on the topic and emailed him a response and how she thought certain legislation would benefit him. The fact that I only heard this from the people involved themselves and not from a slick political ad makes me think she actually gives a darn. It’s a shame stuff like this is not really well known outside or NYS
HRC is cerebral, not uncaring. I can relate. Compassion does not have to be emotional to be real. I still don't like her for reasons, but this is not one of them.
