Why do this? She knows exactly what she posted that got people mad at her, and there were hundreds of people in the replies at the time explaining exactly what about the post got them mad.

The most recent proof contrapoints has publicly shown what side she's on in the Palestinian genocide

Uh, I support evil things out of ✨Pragmatism✨, which makes me a good person, actually

Doubling down

May I never become so vain that my ego is my jailer

She's obviously ragebaiting in order to grasp whatever scrap of relevance that's still left

People who only ragebait eventually destroy their mental health

i bet you weird leftist with your purity tests didn't even think about how this affects a privileged white woman

🎶 the answer my friend, is blowin’ in the wind! 🎶

It's my sincere opinion that this is just meaningless attention-seeking by a person who everyone here already hates and nearly no one even talks to a sincere fan of, so there's no actual point in posting this except to recreational get mad at someone who is basically irrelevant because they can only preach to the choir. What other use is there? It's not even interesting because it's just the same disingenuous bullshit she always does.

She believes that the Dems will protect her, but she wants to look progressive to get money, so she will say literally anything to serve those two purposes. Every single thing that she has said for years falls into this category outside of even-more-meaningless ragebait about how opium addiction is so much more romantic than alcoholism or whatever the fuck.

Damn I’d dislocate my spine if I tried to reach that far

What a fucking bozo

Invoking Gamergate is always such a flashbang to any discussion.

I genuinely do not understand this behaviour or why it is so commonplace. Like, just ignoring people calling you out doesn't mean they have "no argument" it's like failure to understand object permanence but for discussion, if they plug their ears and go "lalalalala" then there are no arguments against their position because they personally refuse to listen.

I could understand someone doing this to protect their own ego maybe, but to then try and act like they're the "clever intellectual" who no one can possibly defeat in a battle of wits by just ignoring any arguments against their position, presumably thinking it makes them look smart or something, but it's genuinely the dumbest behaviour I can think of. Wilful ignorance makes you look stupider than anything else, but so many people do it, and brag about it even, thinking refusing to listen or learn makes them smart or something.

Contrapoints is morphing into the harry potter terf lady. At least contrapoints isn’t a billionaire.

Look, I don't think she's a "Genocide loving Zionist", I think she genuinely thinks what's happening is bad.

But her response, which essentially amounted to nihilistic resignation and a perceived inability to do anything about it, means she's giving tacit support by trying to remain neutral on a moving train.

She bemoaned the supposed impossibility of making a video essay on the topic, but such a thing feels incredibly straightforward to me. She could easily have leaned into that feeling of nihilistic resignation, and explored it. What do we do, when met with horrors that are genuinely difficult to comprehend? Idk talk about Camus or some shit! Explore those feelings! Have some curiosity about them!

But she won't do that, because she's penned in by her liberal politics, petty bourgeois patreon class position, and persecution complex surrounding the fact that she just can't log the fuck off of twitter

Natanyahu can just stop posting about this. just stop being insufferable and stop acting like the victim.
