Summary | The philosopher Bertrand Vergely talks about Hillary Clinton's giant selfie and claims that it reflects a political cynicism. It also reveals the perversity of politics, communication, and images. When Hillary decided to take the selfie, she was not really playing. In fact, she knew exactly what she was doing. She knew that the audience wanted to have a selfie with her, so she gave them what they wanted. It was a smart move. However, it was also a little dangerous because she played with her ego. This kind of manipulation is called cynicism.
