    Off topic, but anything ever happen with that LTT drama?

    I used to follow them early on, but seems like a toxic, corporate shit show these days.

    Kinda sad watching their videos now, the magic’s just gone imo and seems like they’ve tried to template what it was like.

    I guess that’s what people want though, their fan base are basically tech-swifties.

    It was doomed from the start, and yet they went on anyway.

    tbh I think they’d put a bad case forward even if they were given a favorable interview, considering they gave Fox more ammunition than they could ever ask for.

    The misgendering and harassment is wrong, but I honestly think it’s right for the anti work community to call out how awful that interview was and distance themselves from it as much as possible. imo it did actively harm the public perception of the movement.

    That was a colossal fuck up of an interview though, made the entire anti work community look like a load of stupid freeloaders.

    Absolutely no excuse for the misgendering or any harassment, but I still wouldn’t undersell how bad that interview was.

    Thanks for proving my point, what have I said that’s bad?

    I want to be treated fairly and based on how I act, and yet I don’t get that.

    You’ve tried to tell me that I do act like that, despite the fact you have absolutely nothing to back that up… The exact problem.

    So you don’t think there are any issues with how men are treated on the left?

    As progressive as the left can be, men have been left behind and are still often expected to ‘just be a man’, while dealing with double standards and sometimes being treated like they’re inherently bad.

    Edit: Copying what vzq has said to me for visibility, as this is the exact problem. Do I sound like the angry toddler in this discussion?

    “I want to be treated fairly and based on how I act, and yet I don’t get that.” You are being treated based on how act. You act like a spoiled toddler that thinks he’s owed some consideration by strangers.
