I have a dirty little secret. Hillary Clinton scares me, I was always aware of her feminist leanings but now that she is running for the president of the united states I think it's time to focus on Hillary.
And of course this makes me a chauvinist pig. If there is one thing that Hillary is using to death it's the female victim card, standard feminists phrases such as "glass ceiling" and a completely gynocentric campaign.
From what I've heard from Hillary Clinton over the past months. It seems to me that she is completely banking on the female and emasculated male voting base. Whether or not this will work - remains to be seen. But one thing is sure, that this is a small minded strategy, completely lacking in wisdom and sophistry. Of most campaigns waged throughout human history that target one particular demographic in a demagogic way have had foul intentions and foul consequences and I exempt Hillary from this in no small way. A Hillary Clinton presidency would be an extremely bad idea for men.
I'm not going to mince words here. In my mind Hillary Clinton is a female supremacist, a bigot and an ideologue. She is Cold and calculating and she is a feminist. Being the good feminist, Hillary seems to have a female supremacist streak. Making this statement in the Vital Voices' Women's Global Leadership Summit:
"Research shows the presence of women raises the standards of ethical behaviour and lowers corruption."
Maybe you could call this the Larry Summers effect. Make a statement about some inherent difference that makes men better than women in some regard then watch as the wailing begins. But turn the tables and claim the ethical or physical superiority of women then it becomes perfectly fine. Her claims may be true, but we live in a world where is a massive difference between what one can say about women and what on can say about men.
Hillary made an astounding in one of the democratic debates. Which I am paraphrasing as such:
"It's about time that someone started talking about what is good for women. Because doesn't that make a nice change?"
And of course everyone clapped like lemmings. The inanity of this statement is unbelievable. For as long as I can remember, all I have heard is what is good for women. It is virtually unheard of to hear what is good for men.
I put it to Hillary that most all political candidates mention "women's rights" in some way and if they do not then it's not that they are talking about "men's rights" in particular, it is more that they are simply not mentioning it. Men's rights are hardly ever mentioned in politics, and I put the word "hardly" in there in case it has happened but to be honest I cannot think of a time it has happened in the perpetuity of politics - such an event would be so rare that it would be emblazoned onto my consciousness.
The sad truth is that not talking about women, to Hillary, would be the equivalent of being sexist towards them. And to make things "equal" is the same as giving women more and more perks to hurtle them through that ever problematic glass ceiling. This is proven by the kind of commentary we see in the media about the sexism of those evil white men who would not vote for her, take the actions of the New York chapter of the National Organisation of Women criticising Ted Kennedy for not endorsing Hillarie's campaign.
The message is loud and clear: If you don't vote for Hillary then you're sexist. As an aside, I have one question for the democrats. When it comes for the time to vote are you going to be sexist and vote for Obama? Or are you going to be racist and vote for Hillary?
Does Hillary even live in the real world? For all her huffing and puffing about how downtrodden women are you would think that she still lives in the 1950s. But enough of the rhetoric. Is her talk merely hot air? What effect would Hillary have if she became the 44th president of the united states?
Unfortunately there is likely to be an unfortunate effect on men. It's not just about having another president who will surpass all the others in ignoring the issues that plague men - like we haven't had to put up with that forever. She has leant herself to a blatantly sexist proposition called the "Paycheck Fairness Act" which would:
"take critical steps to empower women to negotiate for equal pay"
The Paycheck Fairness Act is an equal pay for equivalent work law by which:
"employers could not pay jobs that are held predominately by women less than jobs held predominately by men"
The matter of the wage gap is something I have always meant to get into in a separate video so I will be talking about these issues in greater depth later but I will give you the gist of it here. Essentially it's all bollocks. You get paid based on how much and how hard you work, there is no shadowy cabal of men holding women back, all of us have mothers, sisters, aunts and female friends and I do not even want to think about what image people like Hillary have of men or how this will shape her. Would you let David Duke oversee race relations? Would you assign David Irving to the head of the holocaust council? Would you let Kent Hovind decide science policy? Would you let Hillary tell you about how sexist America really is?
You see, Hillary Clinton is what the old feminists would have called "sexist". She makes arguments for the superiority of women, she hosts women only and women centred events and campaigns. She makes bigoted statements about men and seems to dislike them and she would make laws that actively disadvantage men and advantage women. I would urge my American brothers and sisters who love true equality to not vote for her.
