it's easy for a smart reporter to line up a bunch of hicks and make 'trump supporters' look dumb

the real issue is that there's a crisis of trust in information
post-truth postmodernism
putin perhaps pioneered the practice of it, trump is a natural, and facebook etc have spread it globally and intimately.

this guy seems almost as guilty as qanon, anti-vaxers, flat-earthers, the critical-race-theory people (everything white people ever did is invalid because slavery, therefore govt, law, science, etc, is invalid), and many others

She’s a qualified genius! A professor who’s gonna bring equality for all!

While working for Teen Vogue Laura Duca also authored the fabulous book, “How to Start a Revolution.”

She’s been called “the millennial feminist warrior queen of social media.”

“I think I tend to forget how much I have the IV plugged in and how high my knowledge level is.”

Duca continues to experience a grotesque amount of harassment. “It was super bad after Tucker. I got really sick. I had a panic attack and could not move for a couple of days,” Duca said.

Plenty of the criticisms, according to Duca, are just bad-faith arguments. “An example is Pride of 2017: I ate pussy for the first time the night before, and I tweeted the next day, ‘Happy Pride to everyone because no one’s 100% straight.’ I was just, like, pumped. People, women, predominantly in New York media, framed it as if I was All Lives Mattering Pride.”

“Their idea is that I’m espousing equality for personal gain, and that’s what they’re attacking. They're using the language of equality to attack me,” Duca says. “[Do] they think someone who’s out here putting their literal life on the line — death and rape threats, the word ‘literal’ does apply here — to stand up for equality and blaze a trail for young women is doing that to get famous and to — I don't know — barely be able to have health insurance and a home and write a book?”

“My gut motivating ideology is pushing for equality, is pushing for public power. What that looks like will change over time.”
