Hedge Fund Titans Choosing Hillary Clinton Over Top Republicans

[chknltl]

210. Utterly unapropriate post for DU.

This is the DEMOCRATIC Underground, it is populated by a great many Progressives. You've just called a Democratic hopeful running for public office a sexist slur. Many if not most of us at DU are well aware of Mrs. Clinton's ties to Wall Street, in this regards you speak to the choir. Hopefully you have the good judgment to read what the choir has to say to you in their responses to your post.

If you truly believe in equality learn this: SEXISM is a form of RACISM. We are all human and subject to being controlled by our culture. Both sexism and racism are products of our culture, both have a tremendous negative impact on each and every member of that culture. If one learns to recognize those cultural influences within oneself, especially when it comes to how we interact with each other, we can be well on our way to becoming better humans-(Isn't that what life's about?). Furthermore we can well be on our way to influencing our culture on a positive path with the grand prize being equality for all of us.

Bashing a candidate for his or her policies, voting records, things they've said and etc is one thing. Name calling OTOH just lowers you and sadly, reflects poorly on those who may be your fellow supporters and those they support. If it became customary for Sanders supporters to call Mrs. Clinton a "whore" too, then folks reading DU would think DU was made up of sexist asses with little worth listening too. Your usage of that slur not only demeans those of us who are not currently in support of Mrs. Clinton's bid for the nomination, it damages all of your fellow DUers.

If you've read this far, then hopefully you understand why I ask that you please consider deleting your post.
