Alex Jones single-handedly out-memed the entirety of mainstream news media.
I still think one of the craziest things this election was turning conspiracy theorists and literally 4chan onto reading emails and having an actual impact on the election by doing that
that or Wikileaks being beloved by all the democrats for lying about American Helicopter pilots gunning down terrorists wielding Rocket Launchers and saying they were innocent camera crews being beloved by (most) Republicans now
It's going to be interesting to see in a few years if Alex Jones is in a Glen Beck type situation where he literally doesn't take his medications to be a better "performer"
Even Alex Jones rant on Joe Rogen about interdimensional communicating and influencing the global elite is literally Lovecraftian Horror and the "god particle" stuff muddled together.
Really Makes you wonder how much is stuff he thinks and how much he knows will sell.
lying about American Helicopter pilots gunning down terrorists wielding Rocket Launchers and saying they were innocent camera crews
It was a camera crew tho. Mixed in with suspect terrorists, not wearing much to distinguish themselves, and carrying a camera that looked a bit like a rocket launcher.
Every time she's asked why she lost and she mentions the Comey letter and the hacking, media people get on their high horse and go:
"OH I'M SORRY DID COMEY TELL YOU TO NOT GO TO WISCONSIN?!?!?"
That's what she's talking about. Not that the media isn't allowing the media to talk about it. They tell her to STFU when she speaks her mind about it.
And it does happen. Everyone, including liberal media, does it. People seriously don't like her and are instantly very critical of everything she says and does.
tfw when you unironically complain about russians hacking and interfering in the election but pretend the primaries were 100% legit even though they used the exact same "hacked" systems.
Russians hacked the election yet the primaries use the exact same voting machines. If there was a fix, it was likely in the primaries as well to make sure Hillary won. She was the only one Trump could possibly beat after all.
Now I'm not the most informed about this, but the hacking people are concerned about wasn't dummying votes or things like that, it was taking compromising, private and privileged information and using it for their own ends. It wasn't about taking 1000 votes here and there. There's especially no evidence the Russians tipped the primary in favour of not Bernie. If anything they'd want Bernie to do better since it destabilizes their main opponent.
During one of her rallies which took place in 5 de mayo, professional panderer and shilling guru, hillary "the crooked" clinton, hired a mariachi band to culturally appropriate and mock Mexican heritage.
Was there something involving Russians with the election? I never heard this before? Someone should have mentioned it. I think she might have lost because of it. I somehow missed it being referenced in the media or debates.
When people told me they hated Hillary Clinton or (far worse) that they were "not fans," I wish I had said in no uncertain terms: "I love Hillary Clinton. I am in awe of her. I am set free by her. She will be the finest world leader our galaxy has ever seen."
I wish, in those exchanges, I had not asked gentle, tolerant questions about a hater's ridiculous allergy to her, or Clinton's fictional misdeeds and imagined character flaws. More deeply still, I wish I had not reasoned with anyone, patiently countered their ludicrous emotionalism and psychologically disturbed theories. I wish I had said, flatly, "I love her." As if I had been asked about my mother or daughter. No defensiveness or polemics; not dignifying the crazy allegations with so much as a Snopes link.
Maybe "I love her" seemed too womany, too sentimental, too un-pragmatic. Not coalition-building, kind of culty. But people say with impunity they love Obama, the state of Israel, their churches, Kurt Cobain. In the end, I wish I'd said it because it's true.
And I'm not alone in my commitment. Millions of Clinton's supporters — we were thanked by Clinton as the "secret, private Facebook sites" — expressed it among themselves, all the time, in raptures or happy tears with each new display of our heroine's ferocious intelligence, depth, and courage. We were frankly bewildered by the idea that anyone would hedge their commitment to her ("You don't have to be her friend"; "Yes, she's made mistakes"; "lesser of two evils"). We didn't remember anyone turning to this stock ambivalence when discussing Obama, Babe Ruth, FDR. If only one reporter — they knew about us — could have published a headline like "Clinton Inspires Historic Levels of Adoration From Her Supporters" about the people who have had their lives transformed by the power of her brilliant campaign, unrivaled effectiveness, and extraordinary career. Just one headline like that, like the ones Bill Clinton got.
Usually a legend is made by men and media — the legend of Kennedy, say, or Jim Morrison — and then, much later, a biopic, pretending to evenhandedness, reveals the legend's shortcomings, his "human" side. The shortcomings are almost always something exactly no one actually believes compromises his heroism. His problem drinking. His mistreatment of women. Well, takedowns of Hillary were always already written. She has somehow made the time to hear out each dead-end line of reasoning about her fake mortal sins, and often she has also thanked everyone for sparing her further moral lashings, as if that were a kindness. Under cover of "humanizing" the intimidating valedictorian, reports and investigations and media clichés vilified her. But the feminist hero never got to be a legend first. And yet she is one, easily surpassing Ben Franklin, Henry Ford, Steve Jobs.
I want to reverse the usual schedule of things, then. We don't have to wait until she dies to act. Hillary Clinton's name belongs on ships, and airports, and tattoos. She deserves straight-up hagiographies and a sold-out Broadway show called RODHAM. Yes, this cultural canonization is going to come after the chronic, constant, nonstop "On the other hand" sexist hedging around her legacy. But such is the courage of Hillary Clinton and her supporters; we reverse patriarchal orders. Maybe she is more than a president. Maybe she is an idea, a world-historical heroine, light itself. The presidency is too small for her. She belongs to a much more elite class of Americans, the more-than-presidents. Neil Armstrong, Martin Luther King Jr., Alexander Fucking Hamilton.
Hillary Clinton did everything right in this campaign, and she won more votes than her opponent did. She won. She cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second. Instead, she will be decorated as an epochal heroine far too extraordinary to be contained by the mere White House. Let that revolting president-elect be Millard Fillmore or Herbert Hoover or whatever. Hillary is Athena.
