I'm not surprised by Hillary Clinton's inability to take responsibility.

The title speaks for itself, but what amuses me is her blaming the FBI and "Russian hacks" for her election loss reeks of the same lackadaisical and unaccountable nature the millennial generation is accused of having. It's become apparent to me that it's acceptable for older people to be irresponsible and lazy, but for us youngsters it's a carnal sin... But after seeing this world exhibit hypocrisy for twenty plus years, I'm not surprised. Hell I don't even know why I'm frustrated... This is human nature all, hence why I doubt anyone sees anything wrong with Clinton pulling a Donald Trump. Because by nature women are not held accountable for screw-ups, while men are metaphorically crucified if we utter something people disagree with. I'd be laughing at the irony, if not for this growing complacency towards mankind.

she likes to be portrayed as a victim, which is really confusing to her voters because she also goes around saying shes a strong woman. the contradiction is one of the things that caused her to lose. overall, she was just a terrible candicate, even though she was given the questions of all the presidential debates against trump ahead of time.

@Hanyouyomi - a true leader accepts responsibility, shes not a leader.

@Plethos As one who advocates for gender equality, that's a mentality I have no patience for. Nice to know her voter base were off-put by the same thing. It'd give me some hope for humanity, if not for these protests and Trump's idiocy...
Though I get why she won't blame voters, because that'll turn them against her. And Probably believes none of her failures is her fault.

@Plethos Pfft, I coulda told ya that when she ran this past election. Her lack of presence after the e-mail leaks and foundation scandals, and her inability to set the record straight was proof of that.
And yet the DNC coddled her. And they're SUPPOSED to be the party advocating for equality...

I think it's more of a left vs. right issue than old vs. young. The left is generally against personal responsibility. Since democrats tend to be younger, people attribute this lack of responsibility to youth, rather than personal politics.
Hillary really is a joke though. He entire career is centered around her husband. I've even had people argue that her time as "First Lady," counted towards her qualifications to be president. Could you imagine someone arguing the same for the right? It would be like saying Candy Carson is a qualified neurosurgeon because she's married to Ben Carson.

@Taskr36 So because democrats tend to be younger, us youngsters get bundled as an irresponsible collective? I hope you're wrong in that, because I don't think I need to explain what's wrong with that line of thinking. But given how these relics seem to have forgotten the follies inherent to being young, it's not gonna surprise me if you're right.
Plus what did Hillary do as "first lady" that qualifies her candidacy in these people's eyes?

If it will make you feel any better, or at least calm your frustration, refusal to take responsibility goes back to Adam and Eve: Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the serpent.

@FourWalls That fuels my frustrations as it's a reminder shows this IS human nature... And those who are able to override this trait are those who learn from life's adversities...

I can only say that she is still unable to digest the defeat. The U.S has done something good by not choosing her. Now she is speaking about Women's problems. This is a typical Indian mentality

@shivamani10 Her unable to digest the defeat is still apparent as it was reported on tonight's news that she brought it up, AGAIN!!!!
Yet no one bats an eye, yet if she were 25-30, some would deem her "spoiled and entitled." Though I bet some do see her as that, but they're ignored to promote a tired narrative...

If she wants to talk about tampering with elections, she should be accepting responsibility for the DNC tampering during the primaries.

@Ruby3881 Talk about the primaries tampering? Are you nuts? No one but the blindly loyal sheep would vote democrat for the next fifty years or so.
