Sorry - that should read "women-hating trans-identified female ACLU lawyer working her hardest to make it Tlgb"

I have disliked the New Yorker for years and now I feel really justified. Wonderful.

Just gotta keep shunting other letters to the back... literally everything is about trans now.

What's the dirt on the New Yorker? I cannot keep all of the publications with "New York" in the title separate in my mind.

Last time I read it was in a high school lit class. I just thought most of the articles were really pretentious. One of the ones I read had some kind of postmodern poetry, which I am not a fan of. If I can find one of them I'll link it lol.

I think their scientific articles can be ok, since it's mostly just facts with a literary spin. Overall, though, I think the New Yorker (magazine) has a heavy liberal bias, to the point that it makes the NYT (newspaper) look conservative. Also I often mix them up too haha.

I had a NEW YORKER subscription for years. It used to have a lot of interesting articles about a variety of topics, but then I noticed a slant and felt I was being manipulated so ended it.

Almost all US media has been bought by special interests, like Big Pharma now, even media on the Far Left (looking at you, Democracy Now! - spokes-media for Trans, Inc.) so it's difficult trying to wade through the propaganda.

Imagine being comfortable with or endorsing a worldview that encourages you being identified as a name you previously used and then changed as literal violence. How could anyone see this debilitating frailness as anything other than a personality defect on their part? It's an old name, it's part of the historical record.

Strangio is bugfuck crazy. It's weird how mainstream media pretends CS is a reasonable, responsible adult.
