It must be really irritating for Greta that everyone accuses her of being a puppet with no agency or will of her own.
I can't think of anything more dehumanizing than denying someone's capacity for free will.
Being on the spectrum doesn't mean she lacks intelligence or takes any less ownership over her words and actions. I don't think even she appreciates it when her "allies" defend her by claiming she's disabled in some way, because she isn't.
In case you really struggle with reading comprehension I'm saying it's okay to criticize Greta.

Anime is about as meaningful in terms of art as the stuff CalArts puts out for Nickelodeon and Adult Swim. It’s commercial. That’s all it is. They’ve just tricked you into thinking it’s cultured because it’s from Japan.
They got focus groups to tell the scriptwriter that adding the Tsundere personality girl to the character roster will increase viewership by up to 120 percent.
Midwits eat it up. Have your debates over the characters, it moves units. When I worked in the creative industry it was like, we don’t care, we’re making products to sell. The process is as soulless as it comes. Your favorite developers and anime directors are laughing at you.

This is one ridiculous thread. Hey guess what buddy anime isn’t art. It’s a commercial product and you’re just as much of a consumer bugman as the “gamers” you turn your nose up at.
I’ve pissed off the people who masturbate to Japanese cartoons. That’s alright.
Why do people pretend to care so much about art? It’s okay to enjoy commercial nonsense. Just don’t delude yourself into thinking it’s anything more than that.

Alex Berenson told me otherwise and I trust his journalism over your grief because he is daring to speak truth to power!
Sarcasm, by the way.
I think the worst part about Berenson speculating that Kaminsky died as a result of the vaccine is how he’s gotten thousands of people to legitimately believe this—some of whom are even attacking his surviving family as liars who took money from Bill Gates to lie about his death.

What is this bitch's problem?
There's half a dozen videos of this woman harassing people on bicycles and skateboards at the park acting like a demented labrador retriever following people around and threatening them.
The absolute nosiness.

Stealth edit in the NY Post article on Ma’Khia. Before and after:
Still wrong even in the after. Ma’Khia is the attacker.
The girl in pink was unarmed and holding a little dog. The AP and New York Post describe her as the “attacker” even though she’s being assaulted by Ma’Khia Bryant, who is attempting to stab her with a knife.

They can't really accuse Trump supporters of transphobia because Trump supporters are the only ones backing Caitlyn Jenner, a transgender woman, in her gubernatorial bid in California.

You'd think progressives would support her over a straight white male like Newsom. Alas.
How about this: I support Caitlyn Jenner not because of her identity as a trans woman but because I legitimately think she'd be a far superior choice for Californians than the archduke of hairgel, Gavin Newsom.
Let's be realistic about California. There is absolutely no one else the GOP could run for governor in the state that independents and moderate Democrats would vote for. Caitlyn Jenner is the GOP's best choice.

Would you prefer another Democrat take Newsom's place?
