1/ if your tweets are so offensive and reactionary you need to frequently purge them in a desperate bid to avoid accountability, maybe you just shouldn’t be involved in public life, Matt and Elizabeth Bruenig

2/ i mean, if my husband had recently been caught posting anti-Asian memes, i simply wouldn’t support a reactionary transphobe by accusing a pro-trans writer of being a pedophile, but that’s just me being sensitive

3/ it seems odd that ostensible leftists would align themselves with current reactionary sentiments like anti-trans and anti-Asian talking points, but maybe not everyone who doesn’t wanna work at Best Buy is an actual leftist, and we should boot some suckers like the Bruenigs

Replying to @AntiFashGordon
The excuse for this is she was reviewing a book by a lesbian Catholic who believes that gay Catholics should be celibate, not endorsing the view herself. But she won't say whether she endorses the view herself! Because she is a weaselly homophobe.

It takes a LOT of motivated reasoning to actually read this article and think she's neutral on the book's thesis

Just like you have to be willfully plunging your head in the sand to pretend that this fairly obscure book aimed at a trad Catholic audience is something an editor assigned to her to try to stay current with what's going on in the world of news etc
