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.

    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:

    There are even some people who feel my White House experiences don’t have a place in this movement, as what transpired between Bill Clinton and myself was not sexual assault, although we now recognize that it constituted a gross abuse of power

    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
