quote [ Many of these men (and women, too) would never admit that their hatred of Clinton was linked to her gender. She’s untrustworthy, they said—more so than a candidate who openly, compulsively lies more than any other candidate in recent memory. She’s corrupt, she has baggage, she’s shrill, she’s cold. Clinton was far from a perfect candidate, and there were lots of level-headed reasons to disagree with her. But it’s hard to look at the surplus of pure contempt lobbed at her over the years and not attribute it at least partly to the fact that she’s a woman. ]
If you still don't see it, if you still think that gender was not a major factor, I'm afraid you're unable to see it, and that is genuinely frightening.

This is exactly the problem. People have difficulty assessing risk and engaging in cost benefit analysis. You highlight the choice between two terrible wrongs but that's where you lose all control of logic. It is plainly NOT a choice between two terrible wrongs. Is is a typical false equivalency, something the GOP uses on a daily basis. In addition, anybody who either abstained or voted for dumpster because of the hate piled on Clinton for the last 25 years has cognition problems. Progressive or not.
