This is a thread for US politics, as the first post states.

Well then, doesn't have to do with the thread, ATRL, or "living in a glass house" in this thread.

Also, it wasn't a mistake I intentionally made, as I have explained above.

I like u and no shade but didn't you tweet at my senator and called her a witch/hag?

This is just disgusting. I just...wow. People will say just about anything these days regardless of whether it's sexist, racist, or homophobic. I think Trump definitely has influenced more of this kind of behavior and anger in people not only in the US but globally.

Well, you're wrong. I definitely didn't mean for the comment to be sexist, and explained the entire context. I also deleted it and apologized to the Senator and her supporters for days.

Glad I'm not sexist, and have in fact called out sexism on this thread before.

If anything Trump is just them on a media attention level. These people have always existed.

I doubt hecking was influenced in any way by Trump though.

You're right. I'm probably the most progressive person in this thread. I am absolutely not inspired by any offensive rhetoric that generates from the right.

It's quite amusing how every single point that has been made against ME of all people (someone who respects everyone, tries to keep it about the issues as much possible, calls out insulting comments all the time and never been warned in this thread as far as I remember) is either a stretch, straight out wrong, or has nothing to do with this thread.

The brick house I live in.

"Context" is irrelevant. Hag and witch will always be pointed, SEXIST comments. Sorry.

Not when you don't know "hag" is a sexist term because English isn't your first language and you have apologized for days because of the unintentional mistake you've committed. (not even in this thread, or this forum, and doesn't affect my brick house )

The COMPLETE stretching I live.

[Retro]

Enough. Debate the candidates and policy, or get out. I'm not allowing people to attack each other on my watch.

There's nothing to stretch You said something sexist, people called you sexist. How convenient that you "didn't know" it was sexist. That's called unconscious sexism, boo boo. And tell me, how many male Senators have you called a hag?

EDIT: nn This was before I saw Retro's post. Bernie SUCKS and will never be POTUS.

[heckinglovato]

It wasn't sexist because it wasn't sexist, English is my second language and I didn't know "hag" was considered a sexist term, I have consistently apologized for the unintentional and innocent mistake. Also, I have never been in contact with any male Senator, the stretches have ran their course. I'm glad I'm not sexist. I'm glad we cleared my record.

Thank you, I got tired of all of the unnecessary attacks on me, and I'm sorry if it ever felt like I was attacking anybody while defending my personal record on here.

Nah, I think the thread is good from now on because everything has been cleared out of the way. We are back to the issues.
