She's looking for any and every reason to get offended. She likes being offended by every little thing in life. It brings her joy, because then she can turn around and whine about every little thing in life.
I think you are hearing what you want to hear.
A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life’s realities â€" all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. -TR

"literally everyone and everything is problematic".
I took that as sarcasm.

I don't really know that much about Ms. Green other than what Sargon of Akkad has said in video responses to her. However, just briefly going over some of her work, my first impression is of someone who has drunk the SJW kool-aide. If that's true, then it casts doubt on the objectivity of anything she says about feminism. Does anyone know of a high-quality video of hers I could watch, just in case I've missed something important while skimming?
Speak when you have something to say, not when you have to say something.

It's mostly her early stuff. All of the recent things are pretty shitty. I don't know of one recent one that isn't.
I did post one of her early ones from back when I actually see her as someone worth listening to in this thread though if you want to check that out

Like I was saying. She had some REALLY good quality videos, very informative videos about atheism and sexuality... then she fell down the full-sjw rabbithole and everything went to shit. That's what happens when your job and life exists on the "vortex of shit" that is the internet though, so I don't completely blame her for letting her lead herself a bad way

That's kind of how I see her, too, PE.

Yeah, and he sort of is.  Of course, I hear the same thing about Richard Dawkins from theists.  Or the Amazing Atheist from Republicans.  These people criticize ideas that some people hold very dear and their first reaction is "Oh he's an arrogant asshole".  I've noticed that objecting to the tone seems like a very convenient way to ignore what he has to say.  It takes a big person to get over that initial revulsion and hear them out.

that is precisely why I like Sargon and TJ, they tell things as it is, they won't white wash things and speak their minds, brazenly, but honestly, and people so often confuse their brazen attitude for trolling, when they are more grounded in their opinions then other youtubers. I use to be a fan of steve shivs, he use to raise some good points in his early videos, but when he started to go full on man hating/self hating feminist, I stopped, helped on by the fact sargon confronted him on some of his bullshit, and all shivs did was block sargon instead of addressing his points.

Thats the death knell for me when it comes to who I watch. If you block people instead of refuting what they're saying, I stop watching.

Forever.
And on the wings of a dream so far beyond reality
All alone in desperation now the time has come
Lost inside you\'ll never find, lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

Exactly.  And I don't agree with everything they say either, but I do greatly appreciate them being so blunt and candid.  Who knows, maybe after this whole SJW fad is over and done with, Laci will rekindle her old style, which was more tell-it-like-it-is and less listen-and-believe.  Stuff like this:

Or disabling comments and voting.  It practically screams that you're thin-skinned and unable to handle criticism like an adult.
