I didn’t want to be annoying on that post about the “Are we the triggered?” thumbnail, but… I’ve watched that video, and while I feel it is a bit rambly (it is almost a full hour in length) I did find it interesting. But I did learn something new when he started building his case for the inherent hypocrisy of anti-woke-ism using this meme:

He points out that in the video this is from, the woman is actually calmly arguing -with statistics- with another person. She just happened to make a funny face for one frame and now she’s on a billion different YouTube thumbnails as the so-called “triggered feminist.”

And to cap it off, he points out: “This clip originally was shown on the Alex Jones show. And we all know how calm and collected Alex Jones is at all times.” (montage of many of Alex Jones’ screams of rage)

I also liked this quote: “That’s the double standard: This woman cannot afford to make a single frame of a funny face without her expression being immortalized in a billion thumbnails. But this guy can literally scream at the camera for 15 minutes because an RPG asked the preferred pronoun for his character. And he even uses her face in his thumbnails! Hypocrisy perfected.”
