- DiabloD3 10y agoI love how they claim she is somehow a victim... yet underplay the fact that the tests didn't pass scrutiny and do not respond to any accusations that the company was peddling near-future sci fi snake oil that the Walgreens suit basically straight up says happened. As much as I hate to make this comparison, this is the same response the Hillary camp is making about her loss earlier this month: "oh well, it's hard for a woman to break the glass ceiling, and everyone is hating on her because of her gender." No, for both of them, their gender means shit. They had an equal chance to succeed, instead corruption and greed won out and clouded their judgement. They both lied, they both got punishment for their actions, with further punishment still on the table.
