Rhino, you did this to me!

The only thing I remember Alice from is when she implied a trans woman should kill herself because she was technically a landlord; as in she owned a house that she inherited and lived in while renting out the other rooms super cheap to other people who would be unable to afford anywhere else to live in their high cost of living area.

e: IIRC part of this involved Alice trying to use the fact that this person had evicted someone as an excuse. The reason she threw this person out was because he had sexually assaulted her (or possibly one of the other roommates, I don't quite recall)

She got into a fight with another trans woman who owns a house in Iceland and rents it out for evicting somebody, and told said person to kill themselves for being a piece of poo poo landlord. Except:
a) That woman wanted to run the house as a coop but Icelandic law doesn't allow her to, so she rented out rooms for insanely below market rates.
b) The person she evicted had literally tried to rape her multiple times.
c) Once both these things came to light, Alice refused to just take the L and instead decided to dig through this person's feed to find justification for her actually being secretly terrible, and also weaponized the WTYPP twitter and their fanbase to create a dogpile.

Yeah, but the Democrats are also doing this:

Rolling Stone, 2/19/2021 posted:

Congressional Democrats introduced broad legislation that would establish the first federal LGBTQ anti-discrimination protections, called the Equality Act, on Thursday. During his presidential campaign, President Joe Biden promised to prioritize the act’s passage within his first 100 days in office.

“In 2021, every American should be treated with respect and dignity,” Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), who has reintroduced the bill every session since 2015, said in a statement. “Yet, in most states, LGBTQ people can be discriminated against because of who they are, or who they love. It is past time for that to change.”

If enacted, the legislation would update current civil rights laws to include federal anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people. It would update the Fair Housing Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Jury Selection and Services Act, and laws around federal government employment. Currently, federal law does not prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. This means that protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people vary greatly by state, which leaves many vulnerable to potential discrimination.

So are we going to keep playing this sin-balancing game or what?

The others have already mentioned the "landlord" thing, but she also said asexual people weren't oppressed and when several ace people started sharing their stories of suffering corrective rape, she called them all liars basically. Just an absolute vile person.

Also yeah there's nothing wrong with a podcast analyzing the Bond series from a leftist perspective ( @headfallsoff on Twitter has one and it's pretty good) but the tone of that teaser felt very smug and Jonathon Mcintosh-esq with its "Bond is garbage and we're here to tear it down" vibe.

They're acting like saying bond is sexist and imperialist is some kind of new brave revolutionary take when it's like no poo poo sherlock people have been saying this for decades already. It's one thing to go, "hey this fun series also has a lot of problematic poo poo in it so let's have a reasonable discussion over it." But this seems way more like a Mcintosh style "This thing is evil so it should be destroyed and consumed by no one" thing. Which I can not roll my eyes hard enough over.

Stop giving the Dems a pass on horrible poo poo because they're doing more good things than the other party, and instead hold them accountable. "Better than the GOP" is such a low bar it's practically buried.

Then stop ignoring Republicans giving a pass to their most violent contingent and letting their ringleader go off scot-free, because you can't find a way to slam Biden for it.

I do find it sad that Biden is letting things fall by the wayside and isn't doing enough to reverse Trump's policies, but I also kind of expected that. I saw last year's election as having to get Donald Trump out of office, because the country wouldn't survive another four years with the Republicans in power. And the fact that people still want to make Biden look worse than Trump isn't making me feel any better.
