In reply to the discussion: The Clinton Reckoning Is One of the Most Essential #MeToo Revelations Yet [View all]Ms. Toad
(34,074 posts)and about the doesn't-pass-the-laugh-test excuses/defenses for her transfer of an accuser in a sexual harassment incident that it was long before the #MeToo movement. If you're concerned about the #MeToo hashtag being use to denigrate her, then don't offer it as an excuse for why her behavior 10 years ago was just hunky-dory. That's my primary point.
The suggestion that similar concerns should be raised about every other person in the world (why aren't you complaining about Trump, the corporations, places with Sharia law), or even every other democrat/ally (why aren't you complaining about Sanders) anytime there is a specific discussion about Hillary is ludicrous.
If there is a discussion about Bernie, with similar excuses being offered, I'll respond to that, as well.
I have not started any discussions about Clinton generally as to this issue, and what she should or should not have done. I have not participated broadly in discussions about what she should or should not have done.
I find it highly inappropriate, though, that on DU people are making excuses for Clinton that we would correctly condemn if offered by Trump (for example) for similar behavior.
