Oh noes, mentioning Hilary Clinton in this context is like waving a red flag in front of a raging bull. I don't like her, myself, but also don't understand why the alt-right keep going on and on (and on) about her. She lost the election, chances of her running again are so slim as to not bother commenting upon. What's the point?

... I can't believe I actually made a political comment, and will no doubt live to regret it.

I can't think of anyone to add to your list. Sorry.

Anita WHO? Who the fuck is that? Maybe you need to define "famous," pal.

[–] strntz (12773) 7 years ago

Never heard of her either, and won't bother to Google her.

While I think most of those famous people deserve the hate they get, political figures are the exception. Roughly half the population hates certain people based on their politics, not on their character. They also cannot separate the two.

Edit: sigh.. curiosity got the better of me and I found her on Wikipedia. I guess the "hate" is that she doesn't like the way women are portrayed in video games. I guess the opinions of pimply faced boys sitting in front of a gaming console should be given more credence.

She is a feminist that made her name going into the video game industry and stirring up trouble to draw attention to herself. Most notably Gamersgate. She really knew very little about the industry but initially made it seem like she was more involved in gaming than she truly was.

She deserves every bit of hate she gets. People like her are a disgrace. Watch on YouTube her "everything is racist, everything is sexist, everything is homophobic" interview. She's the ultimate SJW, who finds racism, sexism, and gay bashing in EVERTHING and ANYTHING, and if she can't find it, she'll create it. People like her make the world so much worse in my opinion.

Why don't you think they deserve the hate?

In this day apologizing for what he did is not enough. Perhaps when things calm down that will change.

Anita has a right to her opinion but if she is going to keep giving it people have a right to react to it. I don’t think she is a very good person. But I don’t care enough about her to hate her.

Clinton is a politician she is hardly unique in the criticism she receives. Trump receives far worse and so does his family. The problem with Clinton now is she has not bowed out gracefully and the excuses tour and insulting people have been what she has given the world since the loss.

Who hates her?

Jane Fonda. I know that tweaks some folks' nipples, but not mine.

I understand the hate. I think what she did was incredibly stupid and naive. I also think that she has done enough apologizing for it.
I think she's a fine actress and a lovely woman. I also wish I could look so good, and I'm younger than her!

If you're going to mention Clinton, then I'll bring up Trump. Yeah, I totally get being annoyed by him and criticising him. But the whining about every little thing he does has been going on for more than a year and I'm getting sick and tired of it. Has there ever been anyone who's been targeted as much as him? It didn't even seem as bad with Bush and he started an illegal war.

Also, Mel Gibson. The man is an alcoholic who has said some awful things, but worse has been forgiven in Hollywood.

So true, I'm with you on this one

Katherine Heigl. I feel like she made one very innocent comment about not liking how women are always forced to be the wet blanket character in films and the media blew it up and made her out to be a diva - even though other actors and directors came forward to dispel this image.

Agree about Mel Gibson.

Disagree about Kevin Spacey.
