There was a time when I thought that people like Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian were the most insufferable people in these united States.

I can't think that anymore.

They're still morons; but, Ana at least had the integrity to retract disinformation about Kyle Rittenhouse, and she's at least demanded to be referred to as a "woman" rather than a "birthing person."

No, people like Hasan Piker, Olayemi Olurin, Emma Watson, and the like are worse.

These are people who will throw friends, family, and benefactors under the bus to placate the mob.

Piker and Olurin know Ana Kasparian, and have known her for years. Olurin went so far as to accuse Ana of racism in an out-of-context video to placate the mob.

Emma Watson has known JK Rowling since she was a kid. One could be forgiven for being an idiot, and thinking that Rowling is transphobic; but, it's hard to forgive a turncoat who gained generational wealth from a person just to stab her in the back in order to satisfy a bunch of faceless, howling morons.

Cenk and Ana are overflowing with bad ideas. Cenk is particularly hard to listen to -- I don't even know how people who agree with him can listen to him for more than two minutes without getting a headache; but, he seems to be a fairly honest moron. Ana is at least capable of sitting next to Ben Shapiro without losing it; so, she could easily sit next to me without losing it.

It's when you know somebody's character, and know that he or she is well intentioned, and still choose the mob whenever that person steps out of line that you become absolute scum.
