I shall not deign to offer him the proper definition a **second** time. I wonder if he knows that when he misuses words like that in real life that everyone who can speak English identifies him as less than bright. ---

Clearly, the only reasonable Hillary Clinton campaign ad should have shown nothing but miserable poor white people (who at least are straight and speak English), while Hillary stood in front of them, repeatedly crowing “THIS IS ALL MY FAULT!! A-HAHAHAH!!! AND I’LL DO IT AGAIN, GIVEN HALF A CHANCE!!” ---

> [@Shodan](#): > > Shut up, you fucking troll. > > Regards, > Shodan Not even you could defend the guy in the original thread. And it’s well known that when you can defend something against Hillar you will. Hence calling the **tom** a troll rather than arguing with him. Stringbean is clearly attempting to backpedal on what they originally stated. If you could argue against that, you would have. ---

Anyone know what word Stringbean could mean instead of deign? It’s just such a weird mistake to make, that I think they must’ve meant another word, and it was “fixed” by spellcheck or autocorrect. ---

> [@Stringbean](#): > > I deign my reasoning and you do with it what you please. ‘Deign’ means ‘condescend’ and there appears to be a ‘to offer’ missing between ‘deign’ and ‘my reasoning.’ HOWEVER, Google definition offers an _archaic_ usage with example “he had deigned an apology” Kudos to **Stringbean** for bringing this archaic usage to our attention. And while most Hillary haters just love to hate, Stringbean is a righteous soul who hates to hate, and must condescend just to hate her. Precious. ---

> [@Stringbean](#): > > Was Hillary’s 2016 presidential campaign announcement video significant? According to [this article](http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/04/an-unabashedly-liberal-hillary-clinton/390339/), its significance is that Clinton, apparently having perceived a leftward shift in the electorate, is projecting a much more liberal image this time than she did in her 2008 run or during Bill’s run and Admin. ---

Then the question becomes whether or not she would have advanced a more progressive platform if she could have done so and still won. Would Obama have done so? ---

> [@marshmallow](#): > > [This Sizzler’s commercial from 1991](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3YGtQ40Qvs) is also full of demographic fairy tales. I am appalled. Many gay people, a few black people, and some people who may be Hispanic because not all of them look like Yaqui or Olmecs, but where were the Asians? Sizzler isn’t apologizing for their culture of class warfare, but is reveling in the leaked video’s popularity! If they are so proud of it, then why did they keep it hidden since 1991?
