(417 posts)I don't like to do call outs so this is a link to my post. There is at least one other in the thread that was just not necessary.
My high school principal always drove home the point that you catch more flies with honey, but if you are constantly told that you don't matter day in and day out by society as a whole and they keep shutting down your voice what do you do? Bernie is accessible, it made headlines and people are talking about it. She is 24, she seems a bit on the radical side, but hey people used to say that about me too.
I don't think there really is such a thing as bad press either. Like the poster I replied to a lot of people are going to dismiss these women as stereotypes. Others wont ever hear the story because our media is bullshit. Either way, people learn who Bernie is.
