^This pretty much. It's good to have an activist spirit but if you aren't really out there putting in the grass roots organizing and actually contributing then all this barking about change is for naught.

I'm kind of curious what community work you do if you do do any. Right now it just seems like you want change but the only amount of time you are willing to dedicate to that change is just to be a keyboard warrior aka Hacktavist.

Things were already heading in this direction for the past few years. Our relationship with Russia hasn't been all that great. Putin doesn't respect Obama and s
hits on him every time they have a meeting. So if we do head into a second Cold War. It isn't something that Hillary did, it was something that was already on the path to it for years.

In this specific instance, it is strawman but that's a claim that Trump supporters like to go around making that she laughed at a child rape victim. It isn't a claim that you made but one that gets made regularly from Trump supporters.

It didn't seem like an evil laughter though, more like a nervous type laughter and something that came off like she was laughing at the situation and not at the case so much. I laugh during funerals doesn't mean I lack compassion at all.
