“Hillary of Envoy: The Woman in a Male Space That Launched 1,000 Unhinged Conspiracy Theories”
#ClintonBodyCount (Thread) 1/
Adam & Eve explains the endless hysteria around Bill & Hillary.

Eve’s sin was taking the forbidden fruit of knowledge, which is power. She got herself some & shared it with poor, innocent Adam. For that, God punished both with sin they could never wash away. #ClintonBodyCount 2/
You really think that if Bill’s wife had been properly ladylike & submissive, he’d still be a magnate for conspiracy theories about murder 20 years after leaving office?

You really think we would’ve cared as much about his sexual misdeeds? Look at the pass Trump gets. 3/
Bill Clinton’s approvals were in the 60s all through impeachment, and his favorables were at 69% in 2013, despite all the past controversies and conspiracies.

Then his wife started a presidential campaign in 2015, and Bill’s favorable plummeted (well before #MeToo). 4/
Let’s face it, ever since she refused to bake cookies, it’s been Hillary who made people (mostly men) so wildly unhinged & ready to pin any & everything on the Clintons like they’re the world’s #1 criminal masterminds (while also claiming HRC is too stupid to breathe). 5/
Considering the way powerful men in Congress protected one another on a bipartisan basis in the 90s (see Clarence Thomas), it’s doubtful the investigations leading to Monica Lewinsly would’ve ever gotten so far (or begun?) if Hillary’s existence & moxy didn’t drive men crazy. 6/
Money spent investigating...

• Trump/Russia:
$32 million

• Iran/Contra:
$47mn

• Watergate:
$26min

• Warren Commission (JFK assassination):
$4.4mn

• The Clintons in the 90s:
$200mn

• Hillary (2012-2016):
$50mn

If there was a #ClintonBodyCount, you’d know. 7/
If there was a #ClintonBodyCount, I highly doubt Anthony Weiner would’ve been spared, speaking of sexually abusive men and philanderers. In this case, one whose philandering and sexually abusive bshavior set off a chain of events that cost HRC the 2016 election. 8/
The misogyny that makes people ready to believe every wild conspiracy theory about Hillary (“She murdered Seth Rich, Vince Foster & now Epstein!”) is rooted in the same loathing that lets men like Jeffrey Epstein get away with abusing countless women & young girls for so long. 9/
We jump to believe every awful & nutty theory about Hillary Clinton bc she challenges notions of men dominating, women submitting.

We let Jeffrey Epstein get away with abusing young girls for so long bc, bad as it was, deep down, we think it’s right for men to dominate. 10/
1000s of years after The Garden, the Apostle Paul was still blaming Eve—& using her attempted grasp at power to justify her subjugation.

“Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. But women will be saved through childbearing...” 11/
Hillary didn’t “learn in quiteness & full submission,” or let herself “be saved through childbearing” or “propriety,” which means: “the state or quality of conforming to conventionally accepted standards of behavior or morals.”

Bill’s sin? Not forcing her to. Sorry, Bill. 12/
That’s why Adam & Eve explains the endless hysteria around Bill & Hillary.

Eve’s sin was taking the forbidden fruit of knowledge, which is power. She got herself some & shared it with poor, innocent Adam. For that, God punished both with sin they could never wash away. 13/
To be clear: I’m not defending Bill Clinton here. But the unhinged hate Bill now gets folded into isn’t about his sins. It’s rooted in misogyny borne of his wife’s daring to dominate in male spaces—the same misogyny that gives men a pass for abusing women. 14/
