   "...the April 18th ContraPoints video would be better categorized as political propaganda on behalf of trans activism, dressed up as good-faith intellectual commentary."
   
   I watched a few ContraPoints videos back in the day and this is what ultimately made me conclude I dislike them (aside from having to listen to Wynn's annoying voice for over 20 minutes). Any "generosity" Contra gave to the side he was not on was a biased, disingenuous facade.
   Anyway, I liked this article.

     @jmakesart It's been sad watching Contra's intellectual transformation over the years. He's learned he is only allowed to have one particular view of the world and he's capitulated entirely. He used to be quite funny and interesting. He doesn't even have his old videos up anymore.

     @jmakesart It is good but it's a bit 'punching down'; she's an actual philosopher and he's some dude with an MA.
