      In this case it’s not really discourse so much as plagiarizing minority voices and directly profiting off them. Hbomb describes how a Somerton patreon subscriber discovered him reading her own essay back at her uncredited. She was paying him to steal from her.

      Dude’s also a misogynist. When he isn’t stealing people’s words his original contributions frequently attack white women, and he’ll also misgender creators that he feels are “as bad as” women so he can attack them through the same lens.

      I feel like in discourse you need two sides and nobody is on this dude’s side.

        yea, and it took way too long to come around to this point, which is probably the only meaningful criticism in this whole thing (except the observation that serial plagiarists also spread misinformation in their attempts to cover plagiarism, which is interesting). he could have made this video about misogyny with a side of plagiarism instead of getting his panties in a twist about a total non-issue.
