    She definitely made a name for herself based on criticizing vocal minorities in groups, but 1. This is a joke Tweet and 2. Her core beliefs are actually leftist which seems to scare Democrats

      Leftist? Her most recent video is her shitting on women as a whole group and straw-manning “dating strategies” as a way to drive more chauvinistic engagement. And the “its just a joke bro” defense is so hackneyed im surprised to hear anyone trot it out in good faith.

        But this is very obviously a joke. It’s making fun of people who say the same thing about women. It isn’t a Schrodinger’s Douchebag situation, she’s clearly joking whether you like the joke or not.

        You are aware you can be a leftist and still make fun of ridiculous people?

        So hypothetically, if I supported Bernie Sanders, voted Hillary Clinton and Biden, plan to vote Democrats in 2028, but make a video strawmanning women, am I alt-right?

            Yeah, I agree. It’s totally unfair to tell someone else who they are or what they believe, like you’re the judge of such things.
