[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sanders is great at assigning blame for a lot of things, but he hasn't really done much about them and his proposals are sanctimonious ideals that ignore political feasibility. If you define feminism as yelling about injustice while criticizing everyone who tries to work out practical remedies, then I guess he is a feminist. I don't think that is the way most feminists would define feminism, though. [/quote] I think that most feminists would define feminism as: the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men. Sanders fits that definition. Clinton does not because of the damage she has done to women by advocating for welfare reform, NAFTA and TPP. Global trade agreements have hurt women disproportionately. Welfare reform has had dire effects on women. These are not just "mistakes." The Clintons have done a lot of harm. [/quote]
