Hillary Clinton's most ardent supporters really are incredible, any political objection to Hillary is a result your deeply held misogyny, she was apparently "entitled" to each and every vote from those who described themselves as anything else but a Trump supporter, any legitimate criticism of her or her politics is the result of "Russian disinformation campaigns" and now Hillary is apparently of the same moral standing as notable religious figures.
One person, Sam, decided to place Hillary Clinton above Jesus due to some of the good work that her foundation has done, which is true, the foundation has done wonderful work such as allowing
nine million people gain access to lower-cost AIDS medication. Credit where credit is due. But.. Jesus? Really, Sam?
Speaking of the Clinton Foundation and without going off into the weird land of right-wing conspiracies, investigations into the Foundation found what was essentially a pay-to-play racket in place.
Mother Jones wrote an article detailing how during her time as Secretary of State in New York, Hillary Clinton oversaw weapons deals to several countries which had donated to her foundation, such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Algeria, UAE and Oman, all of which had dubious human rights records.
Speaking of Saudi Arabia in particular, a theocratic regime that labels atheists as terrorists and beheads people in the public square, donated $10M to the Clinton Foundation before she became Secretary of State, as well as defense contractors Boeing, who delivered the fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, donated $900,000 to the Clinton Foundation. There were also several other prominent defense contractors who donated to the foundation, such as Lockheed Martin, United Technologies, Honeywell and General Electric.
Tom Watson, one of Clinton's most vocal defenders, saw parallels between Hillary and Moses, and this is
AFTER she lost an election she spent over a billion dollars on to a reality TV star, this tweet is almost too embarrassing to even comment on. If all of this Hillary worship is simply about the empowerment of women, I assume that people like Tom Watson, Peter Daou and Neera Tanden feel the exact same way about Jill Stein, Sarah Palin, Carly Fiorina, Geraldine Ferraro, Cynthia McKinney and the many women who have ran for lesser-known parties such as the World Workers Party? No, of course not, because they're political hacks.
This also ties in to what was mentioned above, Jill Stein has won two national nominations to be the leader of the US Green Party, whereas Hillary failed in 2008 and lost the easiest possible election in 2016, so following this partisan hack logic, surely if we're going to erect statues and create museum exhibits of the most prominent woman nominee, they should be of Jill instead of Hill?
Look at these two images and tell me this isn't a cult, because I.. I have no more words.
