s*f 发帖数: 1071 | 1 随着美国大选的结果尘埃落定,播放了一年多的现实主义美剧大戏、《川普版纸牌屋》
第一季《选战》也已经完结。
观者如你我,大概都还沉浸在第一季所带来的巨大心理震撼中没有回过神来。但是,现
在我们必须收拾心情,因为随着新总统就职日期临近,第二季已经紧锣密鼓地开场。
相比只是围绕选举撕X的第一季,第二季的剧情更加开放也更加精彩,陆续也会有更多
新的狠角色登场。
今天我就先来讲讲第二季的第一集:
川大大虐恋,莫斯科激赏黄金浴
普大大操盘,俄罗斯或成最赢家
追剧的同学们都知道,在第一季的后半段,俄罗斯用黑客暗中操纵美国大选是一条重要
的支线。但最后真相如何,还留着一个巨大的悬念。
在第二季,这条由普京这个幕后大 boss 坐镇的支线将会继续发展。同时,中国的戏份
也会逐渐增多。这个我们一会儿再说。
之前我写过美国大选后社会的普遍反应,以及前两天的梅姨怒怼川普,这些情节都只能
算是番外篇。
真正的第二季,从昨天开始。
美国当地时间周二、中国的周三,奥巴马发表告别演说。这件事原本应该是当天最重大
的新闻,但最后只占据了媒体的二条位置,抢走头条的当然又是川普。
很多媒体都在报道这样一个消息:川大大曾经多次在俄罗斯召妓甚至玩变态性游戏,最
匪夷所思的一次是2013年,他在入住的莫斯科丽思卡尔顿酒店的总统套房里找了多名妓
女,让她们排成一排在床上表演“黄金浴”;而这一幕,都被俄罗斯政府安装的窃听器
和摄像头完整地记录了下来。
黄金浴就是淋尿,是一种虐恋游戏,英文叫“golden shower”。
莫斯科丽思卡尔顿酒店
至于川普为什么要这么做呢?据说原因是,奥巴马在2009年曾经住过同一个房间。
特朗普让妓女尿淋奥巴马和米歇尔睡过的床,是在象征性地泄愤,表达他对奥巴马的不
屑不满、或许还有羡慕。
可以想见,这个消息一出来就瞬间引爆了互联网,推特上相关的调侃段子和恶搞图片层
出不穷,大家开始了一轮狂欢。
有人用 Pee 和 POTUS 这两个词,合成造出了 PEEOTUS 这个新单词。
Pee的意思是尿尿,POTUS 是 President of the United States 的缩写,意思是美利
坚合众国总统。
那PEEOTUS该怎么翻译呢?姑且翻译成尿统吧。
这里我需要着重强调一下的是:这个消息目前未经证实,所有媒体在报道时都做了类似
的说明。
既然未经证实,那消息的出处是哪里呢?据说是一份自去年十月开始就秘密在美国的情
报机构和高层官员之间流传的绝密文件。
奥巴马、共和党大佬马侃、FBI 局长科米(就是在投票前夕捅了希拉里一刀的那个人)
都接到了这份文件。
此外,包括《纽约时报》、《卫报》等在内的不少媒体,也接到了这份绝密情报,但因
为内容尚未得到核实,所以他们一直没有做任何报道。
正版《纸牌屋》里,媒体对情节起着重要的推动作用。还记得最后被推下地铁站台的
Zoe 吗?
引爆川普版第二季的同样是媒体。这一次抛下重磅炸弹的媒体叫 Buzzfeed。
Buzzfeed 是一家创办没几年的新闻网站,因为内容轻松有趣,页面浏览量目前早就超
过了《纽约时报》、《华盛顿邮报》等严肃媒体的网站。对外 Buzzfeed 宣称自己已经
是全美第一大媒体,但他们在权威性上和传统的主流媒体还远远无法相提并论。
正是因为没有传统的新闻道义的束缚,所以 Buzzfeed 行事风格大胆,这一次其他媒体
不敢乱写,但 Buzzfeed 毫不迟疑地做了报道,而且还把整份文件都放在了网站上,供
全世界浏览。
目前为止,这篇报道的页面浏览量是449万。
虽然 Buzzfeed 明确说明了所有消息未经证实,同时辩解说报道的原因是“让美国人民
自己判断”,但他们的做法在美国的新闻界仍然引起了一波关于媒体操守的讨论。这个
支线剧情我就不展开了。
不管怎么样,消息已经传开了。所以其他媒体也只能跟进报道。
我们再来看看这份文件,一共有35页,除了一小段讲的是川普召妓和黄金浴变态游戏,
其余绝大部分是讲普京的俄罗斯政府如何秘密运作介入美国大选、同时试图操控川普。
我读完了这35页文件,归纳出要点如下:
俄罗斯可能早在五年前就开始秘密和特朗普培养感情,这些计划得到了普京的批准和支
持。普京和特朗普各自的手下,曾经在包括捷克首都布拉格在内的多个地方秘密会见。
普京主动为特朗普提供了许多在俄罗斯做房地产生意赚钱的机会,其中包括与2018年世
界杯相关的一些项目。但不知道为什么特朗普至今没有接受这些馈赠。
作为回报,俄罗斯希望特朗普能帮助收集俄罗斯富商在美国的财产状况等信息。俄罗斯
还希望特朗普当选后能够在乌克兰和克里米亚问题上支持俄罗斯、解除对俄罗斯的制裁
、开展美俄能源合作。
俄罗斯一方面对川普示好,一方面派出间谍收集特朗普的黑材料,以便能够在必要的时
候对他进行敲诈。上面提到的黄金浴,就是黑材料的一部分。其他被俄罗斯掌握的黑材
料还包括:特朗普在包括中国在内的世界其他国家有大量商业往来,其中不少涉及大量
回扣和贿赂,一旦公开会对特朗普造成致命影响。
除了收集川普的黑材料,俄罗斯也收集了希拉里的大量黑材料并且喂给川普,收集手段
包括窃听、间谍和黑客。
撰写文件的人,据说是英国军情六处派驻莫斯科20年的一名间谍,现在已经退役,自己
成立了一家私人情报公司。
而出资请这名间谍搜集这些信息的,一开始是川普在选举时的共和党对手、小布什的弟
弟杰布·布什,后来则是民主党(目前尚不确认是不是希拉里阵营)。
昨天美国媒体报道时,一直没有提这名特工到底是谁。英国国防部还给所有英国媒体发
了一封信,要求他们如果需要在报道中提及名字,务必先和征询国防部的意见;并且至
少在英国当地时间的周三晚上10点以后才公布名字,以便给特工留出足够的逃亡时间。
但这封信很快变成了一纸空文。因为今天美国的《华尔街日报》已经把他找了出来,他
的名字叫斯蒂尔 (Christopher Steele),此前在莫斯科工作时对外身份是英国使馆驻
莫斯科官员,但实际上就是军情六处的特工。
由于斯蒂尔身份特殊,网上几乎找不到他的照片,但他在 LinkedIn 上有账号。
还有一点,他曾经和叛逃的俄罗斯间谍利特维年科共事。后者原本是克格勃,因为批评
俄罗斯政府受到处罚,后来叛逃到英国。
2006年6月,利特维年科出版了两本批评普京的书,当年11月就因为化学品中毒去世。
外界普遍的猜测是普京派人下的毒,但真相如何至今是悬案。
好消息是,目前斯蒂尔已经弃家外逃,人间蒸发,相信应该还是安全的。媒体还采访了
他的邻居,邻居说,斯蒂尔临走前把猫托付给了自己照看。
再次强调一下,斯蒂尔撰写的那份绝密文件,里面提到的所有内容都没有得到证实。
目前我们知道的是:
美国媒体采访到的美国情报部门官员说,斯蒂尔之前提供的情报大部分都是可靠的。
FBI 此前曾经在调查国际足联官员受贿案时和斯蒂尔合作过。
《卫报》报道说,斯蒂尔是从他信任的大量俄罗斯线人那里收集到的情报。
BBC采访到的一名美国情报官员说,早在去年8月,某东欧国家情报部门的主管就曾经告
诉这名美国情报官员,俄罗斯手里掌握了川普的黑材料。这些材料不止一盘录像带,并
且不只是视频,还有音频;录制地点不仅只是莫斯科,还有圣彼得堡。但是,目前为止
,尚未证实有人亲眼见过这些录像视频或听过这些录音。
川普在俄罗斯的确人脉甚广,和很多金融大亨、赌场老板以及明星都有私交。
早在这次绝密文件爆出之前,去年7月,美国情报部门已经收到消息,说川普的外交顾
问佩奇 (Carter Page) 曾经和两名俄罗斯官员秘密会见。佩奇本人和俄罗斯有着盘根
错节的关系。
绝密文件里提到,特朗普曾经安排自己的竞选顾问科恩 (Michael Cohen)和普京手下在
布拉格会面。今天科恩晒出护照,表示自己这辈子从来没有去过布拉格)——这至少可
以说明那份绝命材料里有些信息并不完全准确。
真相到底如何?所有的信息都在上面了,你自己判断。
《卫报》的报道里提到特工斯蒂尔给某西方国家的一名退休外交官员(报道没有明确提
是不是美国官员)提供这份绝密文件时的情形,和我们看到的间谍电影毫无二致:
斯蒂尔首先要求那名外交官员飞到某国某城市的机场会面,告诉对方自己的特征是手里
拿着一份《金融时报》。两人接头后,迅速开车到达秘密地点,讨论这份材料。24小时
后,这名外交官员飞到美国,把材料交给了共和党大佬马侃。
马侃对《卫报》证实,因为自己不想卷入这件事,所以立即把材料交给了 FBI 局长科
米。
还有一个小小的花边是,就如同当年的美俄太空竞赛普及了“宇航员”的俄语单词
cosmonaut,这次的新闻同样在英语里普及了“黑材料”的俄语单词 kompromat。
这样看来俄语和英语似乎挺像的,因为英语里黑材料是 compromisng material,俄语
里的 kompromat 显然是把这两个词合在一起然后把c变成了k。
而川普本人,自然是暴跳如雷,矢口否认。
昨天他第一时间在推特上强烈驳斥了假新闻,斥之为全盘捏造,是肮脏的政治脏水。
他说自己和俄罗斯没有任何关系:没有来往,没有交易,一点瓜葛也没有。
昨天是他胜选后的首次新闻发布会,这批材料当然是记者最关注的焦点。发布会上,川
普再次强硬地否认了这批材料的真实性。
他当场对 CNN 记者发飙,直接拒绝了他的提问,几乎是指着对方的鼻子怒斥。《纽约
时报》是这样写的:
“Your organization is terrible,” said President-elect Donald J. Trump, his
voice rising as Jim Acosta of CNN tried to interject. “No, I’m not going
to give you a question. I’m not going to give you a question.”
“You,” the president-elect said, as Mr. Acosta and other stunned
journalists looked on, “are fake news.”
他怒斥 CNN 记者的话,直译过来是,“你们太烂了”,“我不会让你问问题的”,“
你们完全是假新闻”。
意译一下就是:
“你们媒体千万要注意了,不要见着风是得雨,接到这些消息,媒体本身也要判断,明
白这意思吗? 假使这些完全无中生有的东西,你再帮他说一遍,你等于——你也有责
任吧?!”
不过这一次,他倒是公开指责了俄罗斯出动黑客黑了美国大选,想来应该是为了撇清自
己和俄罗斯的关系。
不管怎么样,这出美剧的第二季,一开场就异常精彩。
俄罗斯是不是真的和川普有内幕交易?如果是,川普上台后美俄之间的利益交换就会很
有意思了。
另外,还记得我开头提到的,中国的戏份也会加重吗?中美俄三角恋,未来会很精彩。
这一点涉及到川普阵营里另一个非常非常关键的人物,我国官方联系川普,都要特地通
过这个人来传话,以后有机会我专门抽一集来讲讲他。敬请继续阅读本账号,没关注的
朋友拉到屏幕最下面动动手点点关注。
最后,作为第二季第一集的总结,我主要想说的是:
川普上台,俄罗斯和中国都或是最大赢家。那么最大的输家呢?
除了那些担心自己的孩子搜索总统的名字却不小心知道了黄金浴的父母,最大的输家应
该是那些真正的黄金浴爱好者。
想象一下,当他们结束一天的劳累,坐在电脑前,想要找一些黄金浴的小视频小图片愉
悦一下自己的时候,他们搜到的,却是这样的图片:

Why I Can No Longer Support Hillary Clinton
4 days ago
César Vargas Writer, director, advocate, strategist, cultural critic.

It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to
come up with these words. I’m recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton
for the presidency.
I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the
Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them.
Perhaps the saying is true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres.
Your staff, your donors, your surrogates, and those you surround yourself
with are a reflection of who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any
unacceptable behavior? Silence, indifference, or inaction is as
incriminatory-at least to me.
There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in
those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the
very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales
for Hillary is just
I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism,
misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are
legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities
and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations,
by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no
less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why
Hillary Clinton doesn’t deserve our vote, among many other reasons.
Many of us have been groundlessly accused of being politically illiterate,
of having a conscience, and of being idealistic for expecting fairness. As
if caring about our fellow human beings and we was such a bad thing. Without
our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.
Fairness is ingrained in our brains. If you don’t really care much for it
then you might just be a psychopath or a made sociopath. There’s no going
around that. Are you one? I hope not.
Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the
Obama administration, and by proxy, many of us were also stung. Without any
apologies. In fact, we received nothing but contempt from the Clinton
campaign and her surrogates. Then they expected us to fall in formation.
Many of us did. I said I would endorse Hillary if she won the primary fair
and square. And I did, but that was before I got a hold of all the highly
unethical things that happened to get her to win.
I’m not telling you not to vote for her. I’m aware of what is at stake.
The Supreme Court and a petulant man-child that might quicken the apocalypse
, I know. I’m telling you that I’m no longer endorsing her. Vote with your
conscience. Vote strategically. Or don’t. It’s your prerogative.
I’ve seen how our heroes, activists, journalists, and celebrities have
completely sold their souls to support something no person with an iota of
morality would do. I’ve seen them say and do things to derail candidates
who would have been a million times better for those less fortunate around
us. It’s unfortunate most pretend to fight the establishment, to act like
they love the people more than they love the struggle and the relevance that
it brings them. I am not one of those and I won’t continue to be until the
good Lord takes me.
Yes, I am heartbroken, I am angry, I am defeated, but I will rise and
continue to advocate for you, for my people, for those that don’t have a
voice. But I refuse to be a pawn, a conduit of their oppression, of their
disenfranchisement, of their brutalization, of their exploitation, of their
lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
You may vote for whomever you wish. Or don’t. But please, think of the
repercussions before you cast it and never stop holding elected officials
and their water-bearers accountable for how they’ve treated, treat, and
will continue to treat you and me.

and their water-bearers accountable for how they’ve treated, treat, and
will continue to treat you and me.
It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to
come up with these words. I’m recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton
for the presidency.
I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the
Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is
true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres. Your staff, your donors,
your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of
who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior?
Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.
There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in
those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the
very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales
for Hillary is just
I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism,
misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are
legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities
and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations,
by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no
less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why
Hillary Clinton doesn’t deserve our vote, among many other reasons.
Many of us have been groundlessly accused of being politically illiterate,
of having a conscience, and of being idealistic for expecting fairness. As
if caring about our fellow human beings and we was such a bad thing. Without
our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.
Fairness is ingrained in our brains. If you don’t really care much for it
then you might just be a psychopath or a made sociopath. There’s no going
around that. Are you one? I hope not.
Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the
Obama administration, and by proxy, many of us were also stung. Without any
apologies. In fact, we received nothing but contempt from the Clinton
campaign and her surrogates. Then they expected us to fall in formation.
Many of us did. I said I would endorse Hillary if she won the primary fair
and square. And I did, but that was before I got a hold of all the highly
unethical things that happened to get her to win.
I’m not telling you not to vote for her. I’m aware of what is at stake.
The Supreme Court and a petulant man-child that might quicken the apocalypse
, I know. I’m telling you that I’m no longer endorsing her. Vote with your
conscience. Vote strategically. Or don’t. It’s your prerogative.
I’ve seen how our heroes, activists, journalists, and celebrities have
completely sold their souls to support something no person with an iota of
morality would do. I’ve seen them say and do things to derail candidates
who would have been a million times better for those less fortunate around
us. It’s unfortunate most pretend to fight the establishment, to act like
they love the people more than they love the struggle and the relevance that
it brings them. I am not one of those and I won’t continue to be until the
good Lord takes me.
Yes, I am heartbroken, I am angry, I am defeated, but I will rise and
continue to advocate for you, for my people, for those that don’t have a
voice. But I refuse to be a pawn, a conduit of their oppression, of their
disenfranchisement, of their brutalization, of their exploitation, of their
lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
You may vote for whomever you wish. Or don’t. But please, think of the

our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.
Fairness is ingrained in our brains. If you don’t really care much for it
then you might just be a psychopath or a made sociopath. There’s no going
around that. Are you one? I hope not.
Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the
Obama administration, and by proxy, many of us were also stung. Without any
apologies. In fact, we received nothing but contempt from the Clinton
campaign and her surrogates. Then they expected us to fall in formation.
Many of us did. I said I would endorse Hillary if she won the primary fair
and square. And I did, but that was before I got a hold of all the highly
unethical things that happened to get her to win.
I’m not telling you not to vote for her. I’m aware of what is at stake.
The Supreme Court and a petulant man-child that might quicken the apocalypse
, I know. I’m telling you that I’m no longer endorsing her. Vote with your
conscience. Vote strategically. Or don’t. It’s your prerogative.
I’ve seen how our heroes, activists, journalists, and celebrities have
completely sold their souls to support something no person with an iota of
morality would do. I’ve seen them say and do things to derail candidates
who would have been a million times better for those less fortunate around
us. It’s unfortunate most pretend to fight the establishment, to act like
they love the people more than they love the struggle and the relevance that
it brings them. I am not one of those and I won’t continue to be until the
good Lord takes me.
Yes, I am heartbroken, I am angry, I am defeated, but I will rise and
continue to advocate for you, for my people, for those that don’t have a
voice. But I refuse to be a pawn, a conduit of their oppression, of their
disenfranchisement, of their brutalization, of their exploitation, of their
lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
You may vote for whomever you wish. Or don’t. But please, think of the
repercussions before you cast it and never stop holding elected officials
and their water-bearers accountable for how they’ve treated, treat, and
will continue to treat you and me.

Why I Can No Longer Support Hillary Clinton
4 days ago
César Vargas Writer, director, advocate, strategist, cultural critic.
Founder of upliftt.com.
It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to
come up with these words. I’m recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton
for the presidency.
I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the
Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is
true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres. Your staff, your donors,
your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of
who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior?
Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.
There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in
those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the
very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales
for Hillary is just
I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism,
misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are
legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities
and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations,
by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no
less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why
Hillary Clinton doesn’t deserve our vote, among many other reasons.
Many of us have been groundlessly accused of being politically illiterate,
of having a conscience, and of being idealistic for expecting fairness. As
if caring about our fellow human beings and we was such a bad thing. Without
our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.

I’m not telling you not to vote for her. I’m aware of what is at stake.
The Supreme Court and a petulant man-child that might quicken the apocalypse
, I know. I’m telling you that I’m no longer endorsing her. Vote with your
conscience. Vote strategically. Or don’t. It’s your prerogative.
I’ve seen how our heroes, activists, journalists, and celebrities have
completely sold their souls to support something no person with an iota of
morality would do. I’ve seen them say and do things to derail candidates
who would have been a million times better for those less fortunate around
us. It’s unfortunate most pretend to fight the establishment, to act like
they love the people more than they love the struggle and the relevance that
it brings them. I am not one of those and I won’t continue to be until the
good Lord takes me.
Yes, I am heartbroken, I am angry, I am defeated, but I will rise and
continue to advocate for you, for my people, for those that don’t have a
voice. But I refuse to be a pawn, a conduit of their oppression, of their
disenfranchisement, of their brutalization, of their exploitation, of their
lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
You may vote for whomever you wish. Or don’t. But please, think of the
repercussions before you cast it and never stop holding elected officials
and their water-bearers accountable for how they’ve treated, treat, and
will continue to treat you and me.
It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to

I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the
Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is
true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres. Your staff, your donors,
your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of
who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior?
Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.
There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in
those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the
very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales

I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism,
misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are
legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities
and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations,
by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no
less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why
Hillary Clinton doesn’t deserve our vote, among many other reasons.
Many of us have been groundlessly accused of being politically illiterate,
of having a conscience, and of being idealistic for expecting fairness. As
if caring about our fellow human beings and we was such a bad thing. Without
our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.
Fairness is ingrained in our brains. If you don’t really care much for it
then you might just be a psychopath or a made sociopath. There’s no going
around that. Are you one? I hope not.
Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the

lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
You may vote for whomever you wish. Or don’t. But please, think of the
repercussions before you cast it and never stop holding elected officials
and their water-bearers accountable for how they’ve treated, treat, and
will continue to treat you and me.
It took me a long time to write this. I had to dig deep into my being to
come up with these words. I’m recanting my endorsement of Hillary Clinton
for the presidency.
I’m aware of how vindictive Clintonians can be. I’m not speaking about the
Clintons themselves, but of those surrounding them. Perhaps the saying is
true: dime con quién andas y te diré quién eres. Your staff, your donors,
your surrogates, and those you surround yourself with are a reflection of
who you truly are, no? If not, why not curb any unacceptable behavior?
Silence, indifference, or inaction is as incriminatory-at least to me.
There has been no repudiation, let alone denunciation, of what was said in
those emails-just denial, finger pointing, and doublespeak. To appoint the
very same folks who carried out many malicious behaviors to tip the scales
for Hillary is just
I rebuke with my heart, mind, and soul all the twisted narratives of sexism,
misogyny, racism, and classism lay at our feet. Though some of them are
legitimate, most were used to derail valid grievances from our communities
and completely erase us. Our voices were drowned out by empty accusations,
by a nefarious usage of identity politics recommended by one of our own, no
less. That is a bamboozling of POC and unsuspecting allies. This is why
Hillary Clinton doesn’t deserve our vote, among many other reasons.
Many of us have been groundlessly accused of being politically illiterate,
of having a conscience, and of being idealistic for expecting fairness. As
if caring about our fellow human beings and we was such a bad thing. Without
our love for others, without empathy, we are nothing but empty vessels,
carcasses without souls, worthy of none of the things we cherish the most.
Fairness is ingrained in our brains. If you don’t really care much for it
then you might just be a psychopath or a made sociopath. There’s no going
around that. Are you one? I hope not.
Bernie Sanders was treated horribly by the DNC, the Clinton crew, and the
Obama administration, and by proxy, many of us were also stung. Without any
apologies. In fact, we received nothing but contempt from the Clinton
campaign and her surrogates. Then they expected us to fall in formation.
Many of us did. I said I would endorse Hillary if she won the primary fair
and square. And I did, but that was before I got a hold of all the highly
unethical things that happened to get her to win.
I’m not telling you not to vote for her. I’m aware of what is at stake.
The Supreme Court and a petulant man-child that might quicken the apocalypse
, I know. I’m telling you that I’m no longer endorsing her. Vote with your
conscience. Vote strategically. Or don’t. It’s your prerogative.
I’ve seen how our heroes, activists, journalists, and celebrities have
completely sold their souls to support something no person with an iota of
morality would do. I’ve seen them say and do things to derail candidates
who would have been a million times better for those less fortunate around
us. It’s unfortunate most pretend to fight the establishment, to act like
they love the people more than they love the struggle and the relevance that
it brings them. I am not one of those and I won’t continue to be until the
good Lord takes me.
Yes, I am heartbroken, I am angry, I am defeated, but I will rise and
continue to advocate for you, for my people, for those that don’t have a
voice. But I refuse to be a pawn, a conduit of their oppression, of their
disenfranchisement, of their brutalization, of their exploitation, of their
lives and deaths. That’s what a Hillary Clinton endorsement means to me.
