Gamma Male Hipsters for Hillary
This is apparently a real, genuine Hillary campaign pitch; not a parody of what a desperately corrupt and out of touch elderly Democrat might do to reach out to what her advisors tell her is a critical voting demographic.
UPDATE: Oh, dear… beware the perils of stock images.
Update: The Hillary campaign is disavowing the ad; I guess we’ll just have to trust her that she would own up to an embarrassing mistake.

I’ll add that the amount of work these “guys” put into making their beards look unkempt is astonishing. They do have some funny commercials though. (language warning)

Despite the beard and tattoo he clearly has no upper body strength. More form over substance from the Left.
He’d be good looking if he shaved the hipster beard, got some decent clothes, and lifted some weights. He looks like a junkie, but then again considering the other ad he is in that may be the case.
Am I the only one that looks at the ad and wonder if the guy just planted a bomb somewhere?
At least pop culture is making some attempt at masculinity rather than disavowing it entirely.
So, Hillary is running on her ‘assigned sex at birth’, which I believe is now understood to be nothing more than a social construct.
That’s okay. I hear that birth itself will now be considered a social construct.
I’m posting this picture to prove that dude in the ad is not my new son-in-law
And by the way – he would never vote for Hillary – he is a Bernie man.
OK. Look at those pencil-thin arms. Then a full sleeve of tats on his left arm means his kid(s) didn’t get a deposit in their college fund. His hair is carefully–carefully–coiffed. That’s more time away the family, and expense. Ditto for the beard. A clean t-shirt. Hmmm? I’m very suspicious. This guy is a pajama-boy.
Best scene from that episode: ah, the days when Simpsons was one of the best shows on.
Fun fact: Al Brooks improvised the entire hammock scene.
It is absolutely brilliant.
I saw the Shutterstock image (shows that man down to mid-thigh) at Powerline: http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2016/05/move-over-pajama-boy-2.php
His stance is even worse, when one can see more of it.
Sadly even with this bad ad, men and womyn will be reminded that HRC will be the first female POTUS and vote for her so they are on the right side of history. Even without Trump running it was doubtful if the GOP was going to win against a womyn canidate.
Condolences on your loss.
That skinny little arm poking out of his sleeve made me wonder if he was actually a she. In 2016 who knows anymore?
Nope.
Has a sad he’s not the guy….
Umm… I don’t understand all the talk about stock photos. The two pictures are clearly not the same. He’s probably some poor actor who just needed work.
Looking at the expression on his face, the caption should be “I’m voting for Hillary … because my mom is making me.”
He’s what happens when pajama boy got syphilis.
It is amazing how shaming and bullying are quickly employed by those who decry it loudest and can’t appreciate the irony.
Actually he is a very devout Christian man, he loves to drink beer and rye with me, he shoots, he is Texan, and my daughter loves him. His politics are whacked, but no one is perfect. Condolences not accepted.
He’s not even a good hipster. The hair is all wrong. How can someone run for President and never have visited Williamsburg? Where’s the flannel shirt? This is most upsetting.
Snopes claims it’s a fake ad, not a genuine Clinton campaign:

Is this what homosexual people mean by a beard?
Well unless they can trace the source to, say, a particular 8chan board I’m not sure I’d believe them.
This smacks of idiotic 20-year-old social media marketer nonsense that backfired on them.
Of course it is masculine…you can tell by the rolled up sleeves on the T shirt….only real men and masculine females do that….
Well, it IS Snopes, so you may have reason for distrust.
