You're missing a lot of things here and foisting a lot of the responsibility for filling you in on them. I'm not here for that. If you can't legitimately talk about what Punching Down is (it's apolitical), this isn't a conversation worth having.

I actually can. Name a category on the left that punching down doesn't cover, based on your understanding of it?

Making fun of disabled people is punching down (assuming you're able-bodied). Someone with political clout calling out/insulting someone random private citizen is punching down. I find it a little unbelievable that someone doesn't know what power dynamics are.

Vox, btw, is a corporation owned by NBC, and just de- monetized a guy. How is that guy more powerful, in your head?

Why do you keep throwing Vox in here? Who the fuck cares about Vox?

I don't know how you missed this, but the videos that Crowder was making fun of were produced by Vox. The subject of him making fun was not meant to be the person that was making the videos, but Vox and the contents therein. I think you've only seen the clips out of context

The writer is a GAY MAN and Crowder is constantly harassing him. Crowder is not making fun of Vox in a vacuum devoid of this writer. If that's your whole premise here, we're on completely irreconcilable standings.

But you were arguing that it's about *power dynamics*. Yes? Who had more power? Clearly, Crowder didn't. True?

If you think
@gaywonk and Crowder are on the same relative level from a journalism perspective, that's one thing. But when Crowder SPECIFICALLY starts targeting@gaywonk CAUSE HE'S GAY there's a massive difference.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

True or false, you were trying to argue that the guy who's just been demonetized is more powerful than the guy who demonetized him?

I'm saying the *reason* Crowder was demonitized was 100% legit according to YouTube and they should have been more stern with him.
