About $600,000 in Berkeley! Ben Shapiro was called a fascist and a neonazi, but he's an orthodox Jew. Idiots! Conservative students are spat on and harrassed daily. And this is a university!?! IP: Logged |

He exercised his free speech and they exercised theirs.I did hear some of them speaking and their demands that he not speak there were ridiculous. They were calling him a fascist and a Nazi but based on what I read I don't think he is, assume he's jewish by his name. I also agree that university climates lately are out of control and becoming left to the point where if you disagree you are basically tarred and feathered. Basically you can never be "oppressed" enough. I've seen some people receive a lot of **** at universities for disagreeing with the "diversity majority." Its another example of people becoming fractionated, insular irrational, and closed off in our society-and its not good. Ears close and minds close and then emotions take over. IP: Logged |

The link didn't seem to go through right, but I did notice the two top trending topics are trump and Hillary. I wonder why Hillary is even a trending topic right now. Is she really still this relevant?IP: Logged |

I feel like she just can't let go of losing the presidency and still craves the limelight. I think shes just as narcissistic as trump, just in a more subtle way. When have we ever seen or heard this much from a losing candidate? People didn't even know who Michael Dukakis was 2 months after he lost...IP: Logged |

In her book, she lists a host of ridiculous reasons to blame for her loss, which is keeping her in the limelight, but not in a good way. Even her own party is ridiculing her.IP: Logged |

Yeah, exactly.As far as I'm concerned her and Trump can take their giant inflated egos and self serving narcissism and just go away. Both basically terrible human beings. IP: Logged |

She is, and I don't think that she should go away. You know that trump won't, once he leaves the White House. I'm going to buy her book, when I can afford to. I'm so tired of people saying that she should be quiet, and disappear. IP: Logged |

And trump does this all the freaking time on Twitter. He's done it for years, I don't think her reasons are ridiculous. IP: Logged |

a) Why should she?
b) trump never blames himself
c) if Clinton was in the White House right now, instead of him, you wouldn't have blamed him for his loss. IP: Logged |

I admit Hillary has a big ego and is struggling still to accept what happened.But what I find interesting is how many right wing people feel the need to scape goat her and hate on her still this far out? Why? What is the need for a scapegoat? what is going on in people's psyches that they hate this woman so intensely? To me the need for a scapegoat indicates something really unhealthy going on. Scapegoating mindsets lead to dehumanization and cruelty, and even horrible atrocities like genocides. So I think the right needs to ask itself, whats the need to keep kicking this woman? Why is this a thing? Why is this necessary? Trump is in office, he won. Hillary is out of power. I think when people are consumed by hate they need to take a step back and ask themselves why. If she had won I could understand much better needing to attack her. And at that point it would be important to criticize her. I didn't see much scapegoating of Romney or of Mccain after they lost. And Mccain definitely didn't go away. So whats this all about? IP: Logged |

What i find interesting is that people who have only listened to detractors ' reviews of her book insist they know what's in it. Apparently she DID blame herself too..i have seen excerpts to that effect. Who's the fake news now? IP: Logged |

Exactly. If she had won, she would have to take criticism. It would be expected. No candidate is perfect. I also wonder why there is such intense hatred for her, in particular. IP: Logged |

I also remember Hillary calling a small number of citizens "deplorables" was apparently the worst thing that anyone has ever done, and it made her unfit to be President.We now have one calling citizens "sons of ******* " and focusing on insulting them, rather than important things, like the devastation from hurricanes.

61,000,000, (61 million) Americans isn't a "small number". You forgot to mention Hillary The Corrupt also called those Americans "irredeemable". Nice Hillary, very nice way to really p!!ss off about half of America. AND, Hillary The BrainDead wonders why she lost the election!

She was referring to a small loud group not all of you. Your fake news sources used that to wind up the oversensitive while downplaying DT portraying all illegal immigrants as "bad hombres" and highlighting his qualifier. He is better at branding than she is..hardly worth an election as the popular vote showed. IP: Logged |
