en.wikipedia.orgShe's metapolarizing: it's polarizing to say she's polarizing

Yeah this is some quite interesting wording, OP is spot on about that

No she's not!

"There is disagreement over the extent to which different parties disagree about the extent of disagreement regarding her polarizing image, although some have challenged this perception.^citation ^needed"

It has to be technically true, which that sentence is. But due to the contentious subject matter and crowdsourced nature of wikipedia, you'll get sentences like this. Leaving either half of that sentence off changes the tenor of the whole statement.

"It seems we are not all in agreement."
"I disagree!"

Agree to disagree?

So she is not FUCKING DIVISIVE, right!?!?!?

Please note this isn't meant as a political statement for or against Clinton. I just found the wording in that section particularly amusing.
Lol I'm a hardcore HRC voter and I'm a fan of this post. Her relationship with media and the public is the most fascinating thing for any politics nerd, I think.
man i see you everywhere
dude same

You're an asshole.
Supporting somebody whose imperialist policies literally kill people is being an asshole. Just because everybody who drives the killing of innocents in the global south doesn't think they're an asshole, does not mean they're not a murderer supporting asshole.
dank meme
You'd have to be a naive political nerd to be hardcore Hillary.
I'm not really interested in having a political debate in r/Wikipedia but I respect your opinion.
Wow, that's the same douchebag who went to the thread about American Airlines and started bitching about Jews.
Well, shit happens on r/Wikipedia and in American politics. There's some things I can't let pass without comment. "Polarizing figure" seems to be missing the point entirely. It's more like people like her until they get to know her and then they hate her. In other words, for anyone who knows about her, she's not controversial at all, in the same way that Al Capone wasn't. Any "polarizing" is due entirely to ignorance.
Hillary Clinton is a crook, plain and simple. What she is beyond that is irrelevant to me.
I, too, shape my political beliefs by browsing facebook memes.
If only I could have voted to leave the U.K. as well!

bah, Freudian slip.
Does look likely that that will be happening shortly though anyway.
