  • Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, and Kamala Harris have in common

    I would posit those three agree with each other far more than they disagree with each other. It would be odd to find someone that objects philosophically to only one in that set. From where I sit they have a lot of similarities:

    • Party Affiliation: All three women are Democrats.
    • Experience in Public Service: Clinton, Warren, and Harris have held significant roles in public service. Hillary Clinton served as Secretary of State under President Barack Obama, as well as a U.S. Senator for New York. Elizabeth Warren is a U.S. Senator for Massachusetts. Kamala Harris is the Vice President under President Joe Biden, and prior to that, she was a U.S. Senator for California and the Attorney General of California.
    • Women’s Rights Advocacy: Each of these women has been an advocate for women’s rights. Clinton has a long history of advocating for women’s rights both domestically and internationally. Warren has focused on issues such as equal pay for equal work. Harris has a record of fighting for women’s health rights and equal opportunities in the workplace.
    • Law Background: All three women have backgrounds in law. Clinton is a Yale Law graduate who worked as an attorney before her political career. Warren was a law professor for more than 30 years, and Harris was a prosecutor and served as the Attorney General of California.
    • Presidential Candidates: All three have run for president. Clinton was the Democratic nominee in 2016, Warren was a primary candidate in the 2020 election, and Harris was also a primary candidate in the 2020 election before eventually becoming the vice-presidential candidate.
    • Progressive Policies: They all have advocated for progressive policies such as healthcare reform, climate change mitigation, and wealth inequality reduction. Clinton championed healthcare reform as early as the 1990s, Warren has been a vocal critic of Wall Street and a proponent of wealth redistribution, and Harris has put forth plans addressing healthcare access and climate change.





  • Hillary Clinton was widely respected every year

    (source needed)

    Here’s a list of objectionable stuff Hillary was involved with prior to running for president:

    • Hillary Clinton’s hawkish stance on war, being more hawkish than Barack Obama and Joe Biden. She is specifically noted for advocating an escalation in Afghanistan​.
    • Clinton’s involvement in the 2009 military coup in Honduras. Rather than condemning the coup, Clinton pressured other countries to recognize the new right-wing government, leading to increased violence and instability in the country​​.
    • The firing of seven employees from the travel office during the Clinton administration in 1993, an act that some critics attribute to Hillary Clinton’s influence. The fired employees were later reinstated due to public pressure​.
    • Controversies surrounding her commodity trades from 1978 and 1979, in which she turned an initial investment of $1,000 into nearly $100,000. No official investigations were carried out, but the incident raised eyebrows and led to criticism​​.
    • Involvement in her husband’s controversial pardons during his presidency, including those for the owners of a carnival company convicted of bank fraud​.
    • A controversy regarding gifts taken from the White House upon the Clintons’ departure in 2001. Some items, worth $28,000, were meant for the White House estate and not as personal gifts for the Clintons. These items were returned after complaints from the donors​.










  • Taking bets:

    • Participating in a competitive event where bathroom breaks are minimal or non-existent, such as a long-distance, multi-day gaming or eSports tournament.
    • Attending a religious or spiritual retreat where fasting or avoiding certain bodily functions is part of the practices or rituals.
    • Engaging in a survival challenge or a bet where the person has to limit food intake and avoid defecating for a certain period of time.
    • Undergoing a specific medical procedure or test that requires limiting food intake and avoiding bowel movements for a few days.
    • Participating in a scientific experiment or study where they have to control their diet and bowel movements.
    • Partaking in a performance art piece or protest where he’s limiting his bodily functions as part of the statement.
    • Attending an event (like a music festival or convention) where bathroom facilities are notoriously unclean or inconvenient, and they want to avoid using them as much as possible.
    • Embarking on a long journey where bathroom facilities may not be readily available or convenient, such as a cross-country road trip or sailing expedition.
    • Participating in a reality TV show or film production where bathroom breaks are limited or inconvenient.
    • Engaging in a personal challenge or self-imposed discipline practice related to endurance or minimalism.
