    It is! And Hillary's is... bigger... I guess...?

    *vomits*
    Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.

    Is that statement for real?! Can't be. Erection, no matter how small?!

    Monroe was quick to claim that he had “no intent to fat-shame” Trump because he’s “not a skinny guy myself,” but thinks that there would have been “a lot worse reaction” to a similar statue of the Democratic Party’s nominee.

    “If it were a statue of Hillary everyone would be crying sexism and misogyny. [The piece] was readily accepted because he is a man and one who is quick to body-shame,” Monroe told The Daily Beast. “To see him standing in public wearing no clothes is, to me, hilarious.”

    When asked if the studio would consider making a sculpture of Hillary Clinton in a similar style, the spokesperson replied enthusiastically. “Hillary’s not much better than Trump so we’ll probably make one of her too,” he said.

    Monroe was similarly eager about creating a Hillary artwork, saying he would do so “in a heartbeat. I have utter detest for her and her rapist husband.”


    In fact, while Monroe was always enthusiastic to be part of “The Emperor has no Balls” project, he was upfront with the studio at the outset, admitting he was planning on voting for Trump.

    Eventually, as he worked through the project, however, and heard more of the “amazingly stupid things Trump has said,” he became less excited about the prospect of a Trump presidency.

    “The last straw,” Monroe told The Daily Beast, “was when Trump made fun of the disabled reporter. I have family members who are disabled and I was raised to know that you just don’t do that.” Monroe said he will be voting for Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson in the 2016 election.


    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.

    A city department in New York City is obviously going to curry favor by jumping on the NeverTrump bandwagon.

    My name is Shane Brodie. I am an overweight transsexual man. I'm also a sculptor. I'm a very private and shy person, but yesterday I went to the Castro District of SF and stood at the place where the Trump statue was glued to the sidewalk.

    Trump's words and actions are enough reason not to support him as president and this body shaming was completely unnecessary and a new low in our culture. The effect of body shaming ripples out beyond Mr. Trump and hurts everyone.

    I also think that the statue itself was very lazy as an art piece, since it riled up prejudices without any examination of them and did not consider the impact of the message. It was the status quo and more of the same (how boring) and not an exploration of something further at all. In fact, the reactions to the statue are similar to the bigotry displayed at Trump rallies.

    My protest is meant to counter the message of the statue's makers, it's an exploration of prejudice, and it's my personal response to it since I love my body and who I am.

    Yes, body shaming is a terrible thing until the left decides to use it on political opponents.

    The art work on Hillary looked a bit different.

    I think Hillary looks really good in that USA bathing suit.

    It really highlights her patriotism.

    And as far as I can tell, it complies with the US Flag Code. (The blue is correctly on top)
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    The same people who think that parading around in public with dildos in their hands to protest guns is a good idea, maybe?
