Hillary just started the debate with the wage gap myth

And towards the end just now, when she accusingly said to Trump "You've said that women shouldn't get paid the same if they can't do the same work as men".....I'm thinking, what exactly is the problem with that statement?

And if she's elected president, it's NEVER going to end.

Watch as she invigorates all those misandric elements of the population. You think it's THIS bad? Hoh boy, scapegoating men for all the world's problems is going to reach a pitch that will shatter windows with her in charge.

I can't vote for Trump because of other reasons. But this will be the first election I don't vote D. Obama was a big proponent of the wage gap too, I almost didn't vote for him in 2012 but I held my nose. I can't do it this year. Fuck you Hillary, your entire campaign has been based on misandry.

Maybe we should have had fact-checkers on this debate to call out the wage gap myth

Well there is a gap. But it's there because of choices women make, not because of discrimination.

Made me laugh a little bit when she said it. Which is funny because a year or 2 ago when Obama talked about the wage gap myth I believed it hook line and sinker. Its a damn good thing I decided to get more informed instead of believing political propaganda.

Also, want to mention Hillary actually did say that the justice system was biased against minorities (which is true), but no mention about it being biased against men. Disappointing, but I expected nothing less.

Well according to that respected journal Cosmopolitan, Hilary needs to get all up in your 'subconscious' in order to fix the imaginary wage gap. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/politics/a56687/inequality-sexism-racism/ This same article implicitly calls Bernie Sanders sexist and racist for no reason.

Literally 50 seconds into her very first segment:

She's gonna fucking win. And I fucking hate it.

Thankfully Breitbart has pointed out this lie from the debate:

Wait... Hillary? PANDERING!??

rusty_chipmunk · 2016-09-27T01:12:36+00:00

Yup, and hopefully like when its been parrotted by Obama in his speeches it's called out by fact checking sites for its BS that it is.

You know, I hope Hillary wins. If I were American, I'd vote for her myself and here's why.

Personally, I believe that modern society has become less free and more concerned about feelings than it used to be or should be. I don't believe that feminism will ever come to an end as long as there are men in power, because they will always have someone to blame for their failings.

With all the attention and pressure that's on Hillary, when she wins, she has 2 choices. She can step back and make no drastic changes and be seen as useless, or she can make huge changes in her favor.

But ultimately, anything she does will not be in her favor. If she does nothing, America will probably stay pretty much the same as it is now and people will see that she can't change what they want her to. And any large moves she makes in favor of women, like decreasing prison sentences, may be the catalyst to make people wake the fuck up and realize the sexism that she stands for.

I hope Hillary wins because if she does, she puts feminism right in the public eye and effectively removes a large part of their argument, that there are no women in power. Now facts don't matter to feminists but those on the fence will see that actually, a woman has got a lot of power and she's using it to do terrible and discriminatory things.

I won't pretend to really understand how American politics work. I'm probably wrong in every way. But I'm trying to make the best out of what would end up to be a shitty situation either way.

SaigaFan · 2016-09-27T17:14:45+00:00

Dont worry. Fact checkers said it is true...

Foregen_Is_Life · 2016-09-28T02:29:14+00:00

Do the majority of women actually believe in the wage gap? Or do they know it's bullshit but perpetuate it anyways to preserve their victimhood status?

I find it difficult that so many people could believe something so ridiculous. If the majority of women actually believe this stupid bullshit, then my god I fear for this country.

gmcalabr · 2016-09-27T13:22:14+00:00

No one said the gap doesnt exist, they just said the myth is why it exists. Clinton did not, iirc, say why it exists, just that she promises to do something about it.

Not sure what that means though.

To be fair, I dont like Clinton and I dont know what she wants to do about the wage gap, but I cant forget that the political scene is bigger than just mensrights issues. This is a race between a racist conman and a disagreeable feminist.

She opened with her granddaughters birthday and the wage gap myth. I was like fuck yeah Trump is going to destroy this stupid bitch. I couldn't have been wronger.

Markin_Lambaste · 2016-09-27T06:08:46+00:00

No she didn't. She said she would guarantee equal pay for equal work for both genders. Something that is not currently guaranteed in our constitution or in our federal law.
