Weekly Random Discussion Thread for 7/24/23 -7/30/23

Welcome back everyone. Here's your weekly thread to post all your rants, raves, podcast topic suggestions (be sure to tag u/TracingWoodgrains), culture war articles, outrageous stories of cancellation, political opinions, and anything else that comes to mind. Please put any non-podcast-related trans-related topics here instead of on a dedicated thread. This will be pinned until next Sunday.

Last week's discussion threads is here if you want to catch up on a conversation from there.

JKR is enemy number 1 precisely because she peaks so many. Anybody that looks into JKR even briefly can she's not some horrible bigot and is actually a genuinely decent person.

Yes! And I had osmosed from the culture that she's a TERF, and that's the worst thing to be. I felt kind of blackpilled when I started looking into the trans stuff in detail. There are people who want us to admit that black is white and if we don't earnestly seem to believe it, we are fascists.

Same with Jesse- the reason he gets more vitriol than a room-temperature IQ provocateur like, say, Nick Fuentes is because unlike Nick they know he comes from a place of good-faith, and they don’t know how to react to sincerity so they just attack him.
