Mike Cernovich acquired a copy of that “Shitty Men in Media” list (he was offering $10,000) and is using it to run hit pieces

says he’s going to give the accused a chance to reply, I suspect that’s an excuse to sequence them strung out for maximum news impact, in priority as culture war enemies

What a moron.

These people are going to get away with it, because the accusations will forever be associated with the alt-right. If he’d waited a week or two, someone else would have taken the bait, published, and the media would have eaten it up.

But now the whole issue has been coded “of interest to racists” and everyone else will be careful not to touch it. The people involved will defend with “You’re accusing me of sexual harassment? Aha, I see you’re a fan of Mike Cernovich” and it’ll never go anywhere.

no that’s the point, it pits “fight the right in as masculine-aggressive-coded a way as possible” DIRECTLY against “rally around victim-claimants in as feminine-caring-coded a way as possible”

BOTH of which are taken as absolute imperatives, with much charismatic-ideological effort invested in denying the very POSSIBILITY of idioms by which they should ever be soft-walked for tactical purposes

listen all of y’all this is sabotage
