Whenever I ask, why was Hillary Clinton hated by so many? I get no answers, what I get are childish hate posts from the right and pessimism and throwing up your hands from some on the left. So I'll answer for you all. Presumptuous you say, read the hate filled nonsense that passes for thought in America today and get back to us on that. People can be made to hate, to see evil in another and excuse their own part in it. No one is born a racist or a white supremacist, they are made one and very few escape their creation. Twenty five years created in the minds of the partisan and the easily influenced a caricature rather than a person. Hillary became the dumping ground for the evils that groupthink creates in its dungeon of wants. When someone's calls Hillary a liar you know no intelligence resides there as Trump lied a hundredfold more.
"The main hypothesis concerning group-think is this: the more amiability and espirt de corps among the members of an in-group of policymakers the greater the danger that independent critical thinking will be replaced by groupthink, which is likely to result in irrational and the dehumanizing actions directed at out-groups." Irving L. Janis in 'Sanctions for Evil'
Republicans helped make Trump now they must deal with their own creation. Had they not allowed the southern strategy to be their strategy, had they countered Trump's racist birtherism, had they not castigated government, the only institution in existence capable of establishing order and protecting the rights and freedoms of all citizens America would now not have an outsider, a buffoon, an insecure blowhard as their leader.
The below too is part of the hate machine.
"Republicans, of course, cloak themselves in the rhetoric of freedom and necessity and express concern about future generations. That the beast they would slay ultimately translates to the lives of American citizens, including some of the most vulnerable who depend on government social programs to which they enjoy legal, political, and moral entitlement, is irrelevant. Hatred of government is a disease with them. They loathe common purpose and project, especially when channeled through the state. Their hatred of government, it seems to me, is tantamount to hatred of country." Steven Johnston contemporarycondition.blogspot.com/2011/08/why-do-republicans-hate-america.html
