Edit: A few comments mention the power imbalance between Lewinsky as an intern and the president. This meme shouldn’t be seen as me approving of Clinton’s behavior but point out that an adult man having “sexual relations” with a child should have some bearing against a sitting president.
If Clinton is in the Epstein files, show the world.
don’t take away her agency though, she was an adult
has she ever complained about it?
I genuinely don’t know
here you go chat

what a terrible fluff article
her trauma was the spectacle and it wasn’t SA but I’ve come to understand now it was an abuse of power?
her words interposed with a bunch of people wanting to be relevant
what exactly were you trying to argue agisnt?
You explicitly asked if she’s ever complained about it and were given an article written by her contemplating her feelings on it; it was directly a resource to your very question.
She explicitly says:
She, now, agrees that – whatever her desires at the time – that Bill Clinton both had an overwhelming amount of power over her as both her boss and nearly 3 decades her senior. And we got to see what that power difference could mean for her when the relationship went sour.
nah that ‘article’ was multiple pages of other people’s opinions and advertisements and like a paragraph of her feelings
useless fucking article
also you are literally quoting the part I reference in the prior reply so good job being blindly ironic lmao
and my point was it wasn’t sexual assault so not even comparable to the guy running a pedo ring
she wanted him at the time, power is sexy, she regrets the circus and note her wording her: ‘although we now recognize’
just so we can skip more of these tired ass windmills Clinton is still disgusting
I’m using an adblocker so maybe you’re seeing something else than I am which had me misunderstand your comment (which I mostly mention because I didn’t notice any ad.s so, based off of that, maybe what what you were seeing was also different from me)? The entire piece was written by her with no other people’s opinions.
It was a whole article entirely written by her, reflecting both on her feelings from the entire event and how it for within the other major events in both the culture and the nation (given her experience catipulted her into both). So your response hadn’t made sense since the entire thing is written by her and her thoughts about the ordeal.
lol if you think she wrote this herself
it reads like a ghost written memoir
I don’t know about you but as a white dude I love spouting Mexican proverbs
i have other examples but lemmy won’t upload the images and i don’t care enough to do it myself
i wasn’t arguing, i happened to know where her words on the subject were published and thus rendered them
the magazine is called “Vanity Fair” and yeah they’re sort of a bazaar of… vanity
probably when we consider that this is the level of consideration Lewinsky was given, even in 2018, we should reflect on what that says about the colonies
She was an intern for the most powerful man in the world
Also she wasn’t the first for Billy C, he has a track record of sexual abuse in the workplace.
of course no woman ever liked a man with power right?
and no doubt Clinton was a shit heel but how many Trump victims have made complaints?
has Monica ever said she didn’t want what happened?
seems like when it blew up she had plenty of opportunity for a more serious claim than the act itself
Are you a Harvey Weinstein defender?
fuck off
just because I think painting Clinton with the same brush as Trump as a defense towards Trump’s behavior is bullshit doesn’t mean I support any of their behaviors
and people like you with dishonest arguments do no one any favors
do better
She must have. How else would anyone know?
republican fishing
it’s in that horrible article linked to my reply
