So Briahna Joy Grey, Jill Stein voter, invites me on her podcast “Bad Faith.” My friends tell me, “Don’t do it, Bad Faith is known for being bad faith.” I say I’ll do it anyway because, 1 losing debates to bad faith people is an integral part of my artistic process and 2, I’m frustrated that most leftist influencers won’t even talk to me like a human being. They just treat me as a discursive object they can disingenuously accuse of genocide for views and clicks. So, I appreciate the opportunity to actually discuss

What is she even doing at this point? She's not stupid. She's no Brianna Wu. No doubt that her audience of left-libs is overwhelmingly anti-genocide. Is she actually to the right of John Oliver on Israel?

    I admire your optimism

    I think she pivoted to grifting center-right rainbow capitalist libs.

    That makes no sense to me. She makes like monthly six figures off of patreon radlibs. If she believed in nothing whatsoever, the correct "grifter" move would be to say "Fuck Israel, free Palestine" and be done with it. Why would she piss off her established pay piggies to appeal to an audience of like 7 Democratic consultants?
