I used to love podcasts but I’m really going off them because of the very flippant ‘terfs are evil’ attitude that slips in - even when the topic has nothing to do with it!
For example, recently went on a bit of a deep dive on what celeb men get away with and found the ‘what a creep’ podcast. Premise seemed great but evidently should have done my homework a little bit more as half way through the episode on Neil Gaiman they apologised for citing an article from a ‘terfy’ publication, and then at the end of the episode they decided to bash JK Rowling claiming she was his friend. Now, it’s an old podcast episode so maybe it came out before she ripped into him on Twitter but i don’t remember them ever being particularly friendly and… for gods sake, even if you don’t agree with her Gender Critical views perhaps take a moment to think before equating a woman who set up a sexual abuse centre for women with a…. Man accused of sexual abuse.
It’s really pissed me off this morning. Grr.
