And the progressive side threw her in the pit. Because by juxtaposing these two things in the same conversation, she's essentially legitimizing it. She's putting them on equal footing, which those arguments don't deserve because they've not done the work. And the people who espouse those ideas never defend their positions, electing instead to move the goalposts and continue arguing. She knows that. She's got years of personal experience with it and she does it anyway. It's the same thing people give CNN shit for, and the reason John Stewart dragged them for years. It's every panel on global climate change you've ever seen, and we have done studies showing that these things don't improve people's understanding of the issues, but mostly complicate them. And she's getting money? Wat. Sis, not only are your theoretically ideological antagonists getting more out of this rhetorically than you, it very much looks like your selling you're platform out for money. --- Whatever happened to standards?
