Hillary Clinton: "If we broke up the big banks tomorrow, would that end racism? Would that end sexism?"

1337Gandalf · 2016-02-17T17:41:37+00:00

Did y'all hear about what she said about Social security and how it should go towards women more; because they're "the primary victims of age" now, or something.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h17J5TlhQnI

So I'm gonna take this as she still stands behind her primary victims of war speech she made ages ago.

Edit: Hillary did not literally say that women were the primary victims of age, that was my interpretation of her general stance on the issue, and also a reference to her (actually real) quote about women being the primary victims of war.

"At this point, what difference does it make?"

-How much she cares about the men who died due to her negligence.

ktchong · 2016-02-17T18:23:22+00:00

Is there any reason for men to vote for Hillary Clinton? All she has talked about is what she can do for women, women, women.

ee4m · 2016-02-17T13:53:40+00:00

It would negate debt slavery.

jaheiner · 2016-02-17T16:30:34+00:00

This woman is seriously using everything other than actual political policy to get her ass into the whitehouse. I detest Trump and I'd vote for him before I voted for her.

electricalnoise · 2016-02-17T19:40:46+00:00

If we elect our first female president, solely to have elected our first female president because it would be "historical", will that end sexism?

wonkifier · 2016-02-17T16:52:05+00:00

So... we can't solve everything at the same time, so don't bother trying to solve this issue?

I'm confused

HeisenV · 2016-02-17T15:01:50+00:00

That's so incredibly arrogant. The implication is that she would of course end sexism and racism.

Penalizing the banks would at least be a step towards diminishing poverty. This would provide more opportunities for disadvantaged families--which are disproportionately minorities. A bigger step towards ending racism than talking about "checking your privilege."

whiteguycash · 2016-02-17T17:51:56+00:00

no Hillary, but if we broke up the modern feminist movement, BLM, and Social Justice movements, that would be a great step in the right direction.

revmdn · 2016-02-17T15:58:40+00:00

Hey, when did she say this? I just want to be able to have the proof when people don't believe me.

LOOK_AT_MY_POT · 2016-02-17T16:49:52+00:00

What the hell does this have to do with MR?

AlwaysABride · 2016-02-17T17:14:01+00:00

I was going to judge people based upon the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin. But #wouldthatendracism?

CommondeNominator · 2016-02-17T19:14:01+00:00

The things Hillary Clinton says are so incredibly inane. Banks have nothing to do with racism and sexism.

If we provide Detroit with a new water purification plant, would that get us to Alpha Centauri? No? What's the point then?

fourthwallcrisis · 2016-02-17T17:25:01+00:00

If I had pancakes for breakfast would that stop war in the middle east?!

IamBrian · 2016-02-18T00:03:21+00:00

It is not the role of government to end racism or sexism.

RedPill4LYF · 2016-02-17T19:28:53+00:00

I'm of the firm belief that racism and sexism wouldn't be the controversial topics they are today if not for radical feminism consciously stirring bee hives to get people angry at one another.

Insula92 · 2016-02-17T18:24:48+00:00

There's nothing wrong with big banks if just they were lead by black women.

mdarrenp · 2016-02-18T05:07:54+00:00

Can someone explain to me why this was posted to r/mensrights? Serious question. I'm not seeing the relation between Clinton's ridiculous quote and men's issues.

G_H_Saturn · 2016-02-17T20:27:25+00:00

Full circle, folks. The one salient point of OWS was first muddled by the SJ bullshit, then watered down into irrelevance, and now is being discarded completely to fight some nebulous, ethereal devilry with no clear goals or definitions.

This is the future we all chose.

I can at least enjoy watching all those champaigne socialists and their hipster marxist underlings gobble this shit up without flinching, even though the very reason SocJus faggotry became associated with academic Marxism is because Marxism explains their favorite -isms as a direct result of the guess which system of economic relations. (And yes, an actual marxist's response to Hillary's question would've been a resounding "well duh")

2016-02-18T01:35:59+00:00

It would definitely end her campaign funding

The_Bird_King · 2016-02-18T04:07:32+00:00

I was going to comment on this post but #wouldthatendracism ?

smkeybare · 2016-02-17T17:12:10+00:00

Why is this on the MR subreddit?

franklindeer · 2016-02-17T16:28:45+00:00

The big banks are too big. It's not so much that banks are inherently bad, but that allowing a small handful of banks to own such a significant percentage of the market is bad. As would be the case in nearly any other industry.

Edit: Judging by the voting, state influenced monopolies are a good thing I guess.

SchrodingersRapist · 2016-02-17T18:12:10+00:00

fuck I need a flag for my subs... thought I was on /r/libertarianmeme for a minute

Why the fuck is this here?

Revoran · 2016-02-18T02:32:41+00:00

What has this got to do with men's rights?

We all know Hillary is an avowed feminist (and not the good kind), a corporate sellout and a general moron. The fact she's said yet another stupid thing to pander to a certain demographic isn't news.

whateverisfree · 2016-02-17T17:08:42+00:00

One thing breaking down the mafia like banking system would do is create more stability and equality between the classes in society. Us on the bottom would probably be all for that, because we would get a fair chance, but the people running the country would probably not enjoy it, as their income would take a huge hit, because it's not as legal as they and many others think.

So one could say it would help some with prejudice. Maybe. Hopefully. But no, it's not very likely. Prejudice and unfair treatment goes beyond money in many circumstances, even though it is a huge factor in some cases.

gsettle · 2016-02-17T17:10:52+00:00

No. But it might make your elitist bed-buddies anxious! And stop with the logical errors! You don't fool everyone!!!!!

Unenjoyed · 2016-02-17T17:15:20+00:00

Perhaps an additional row of life boats on the Titanic would have ended classism.

politicalGuitarist · 2016-02-17T17:39:57+00:00

It would end you and that's all we care about.

Yeah, she doesn't give a shit about all of the above.

Lrellok · 2016-02-17T20:19:14+00:00

YES!

Brodusgus · 2016-02-17T22:56:21+00:00

There more she speaks for free, the less chance she has of getting elected. Her polls numbers were great till people actually listened and heard what she thinks.

ThePigmanAgain · 2016-02-17T23:22:25+00:00

Wow, i'm surprised she's this stupid. She's pretty much just admitted that the reason pseudo-leftists champion feminism and black rights is because it distracts everyone from class issues!

As for breaking up the big banks, it would force banks to stand or fall on their own merits. If no bank is too big to be allowed to fail, they will have to shape up or die.

silly_vasily · 2016-02-17T23:30:16+00:00

I guess I could fight for men's rights #ButWouldThatEndRacism

toseawaybinghamton · 2016-02-18T00:12:58+00:00

She really hates men. I get disgusted everytime she talks about how bad women are treated.

Beachbum74 · 2016-02-18T00:35:19+00:00

Too funny, that's like that old Dave chappelle black bush clip. 'Don't worry Iraq I got that, I'm talking about Mars Bitches. Redrocks!

thrower65 · 2016-02-18T02:25:31+00:00

You can't end racism. You can't end sexism. It's human nature. I STILL believe that we should fight for men's rights, however. I also think that races are already equal.

2016-02-18T03:13:23+00:00

Hillary is fucking clown shoes. I am all for a female president, if she was actually qualified for the job.

I really don't like this woman and I'm Canadian. I'm not even going to say apologize for it either. That's real Canadian hate.

Rivka333 · 2016-02-18T05:11:09+00:00

Because every action we take should simultaneously solve every problem in the world.

cuteman · 2016-02-18T07:45:24+00:00

That's not a real quote. That can't be a real quote.

gvs77 · 2016-02-18T10:15:15+00:00

Does collecting taxes end racism, does it end sexism?

Seize the memes of production and flood Twitter with that hashtag.

Beware the Twitter Trust and Safety Council

Versus_The_World · 2016-02-18T10:40:34+00:00

This! This right here is PROOF! Solid evidence of Establishment distraction tactics. Her plan is to detract from the focus on the regulating and breaking up of banks by inflaming peoples sense of social justice with issues of race and gender. She is fuckin evil man!

hashtagwindbag · 2016-02-18T18:29:08+00:00

Not only is this a textbook example of a perfect solution fallacy, but it does the same bullshit politicians have been using to divide us for generations: Voters are concerned about a topic you don't want to address? Distract them with social issues.

This is such a blatant line of horseshit. It's a wonder to me how anybody in the 99.9% thinks they can trust her to stay true to her word on anything.

2016-02-22T15:50:19+00:00

Luckily she is barely known, has no political power and noone will vote for her so we won't have to worry.

Oh wait

2016-02-17T18:43:55+00:00

Lame, post this in the Sanders sub.

If we broke up Hillary Clinton tomorrow, we would see the cold black blood running out of her body.

romulusnr · 2016-02-17T19:18:18+00:00

Actually, since debt and poverty disproportionately impact black people.... it would actually help quite a bit.

tiqr · 2016-02-17T16:22:08+00:00

Full Quote for Context

"If we broke up the big banks tomorrow - and I will if they deserve it, if they pose a systemic risk, I will - would that end racism?"

It's not quite as stupid a quote if you don't remove the middle part.

No, because there is no racism and sexism, as she defines it, in the west.
