May I ask who you would have voted for in the 2012 MO Senate race?

If you're going to throw around the word 'sexist' like that, you should probably already know exactly what I'm referring to.

pretty gross (although of course smiley &al are beïng hilariously hypocritical)

Pretty funny. And people who protest topless kinda lose the "right" to complain about people looking at/commenting on their bodies.

bad argument. does someone who marches in a lgbt+ pride parade lose the right to complain about beïng called homophobic slurs?

Nope, no idea.

Maybe sexist wasn't the right word, but he really is creepy.

That's not even remotely the same thing.

My view on this has never changed. Fighting sexism like this is near the forefront of my political causes. (hilarious Trumpism aside)

I was disgusted when Jeb Bush commented on Supergirl, and I am disgusted now

It was a joke. A bad one, an inappropriate one, and a cheesy one, but at the end of the day it was a joke. I'd love to rip on the Bernie bros as much as anyone, but there isn't a story here.

Please, don't lie to yourself. Supporting Trump in any capacity, for any reason, automatically precludes you from claiming yourself to be any kind of progressive.

Lets be honest here. The only person in this race that cannot say things like this without getting hammed by the media is Hillary Clinton.

Also true, and genuinely saddening.

Lol. I don't want to be a stupid progressive. I do what I do. And feminism is of utmost importance to me.

Very sad that this place is so infested with misogynist Bernie Bros who apparently think it's fine for a presidential candidate to leeringly sexualize young women while he's yucking it up with his fellow bros. I appreciate that Bernie supporters like Antonio are willing to call him out on this though.

He was punning.

Does Trump even know what a pun is? Can anyone provide an example of Trump himself using one?

There was one time Trump did some completely absurd word association game that he connected something completely unrelated to the dishonest media - it was hilarious to see how his brain operated.

But no, I don't think Trump knows puns.

Oh, don't get me wrong, it was pretty bad. I was just more awestruck by the fact that your life is apparently so sad that your idea of fun is to come after us long after we've given up any hope of winning this primary.

Then again, you're as infamous as Sprouts when it comes to supporting the Nazi, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

I believe the question was on what the words were on her chest. I think it was an innocent joke, I really think arguing over whether a man who has fought for women's rights all his life is a sexist is really ludicrous. When Shadows is the voice of reason you know that this can't be a good cause. Attack him on healthcare, being a one issue candidate, etc. This just isn't a good cause for Hillary Fans or GOPers to latch onto.

You can't attack him on those issues when he's generally right. The problems are this hideous incident and his supporters.

If you are a supporter of his proposals but choose to be against  him because of this? and his supporters? As I said before the question was about the writing on her chest it was a silly joke, I think that if we want to focus on sexism we should focus on the Republican nominee, rather than Sanders...

Why do so many people expect our presidents to be asexual beings? I'm willing to bet a number of those people complaining on that feed regularly comment on peoples looks with their friends as well. Especially the women. I've never had a friend who didn't do that, that's for sure.

Talk about ridiculous...

Hillbots, sexist alert.
