I thought it was Alice Caldwell-Kelly?

Trans, socialist, convert to Islam sounds like a right wing cautionary tale of sending your kids to university.

Alice Caldwell-Kelly and Alice Avizandum are the same person, imo she would fully agree that her life is like a Scared Straight for reactionaries

I was thinking Leslie and Jack should just have a podcast where they report on people they got mad on twitter, but now that I think about it having a podcast where you drone on about nerd movies is probably the best way to do that.

After reading the relevant tweets it appears that Leslie was blowvating about the SJW Star Wars that all the nerds like and mocked a scene that Rain Johnson wrote (but did not include) where rose tico broke a window and got a cool dress to put on instead of her frumpy jumpsuit, saying it was sexist. Looks like Alice then said that Leslie gave her a “transphobic vibe” and then Leslie said if she wanted to call him the n-word for making fun of sexist tropes in the SJW Star Wars than she should just do it.

Looks like some star wars fandom fail to me

Having the name Leslie is cultural appropriation of trans culture
