    she’s an activist, whose sole purpose in life has become making life worse for a certain group of people. incredibly vile and full of hate, and very vocal about it. using her platform consistently in the worst possible way.

    She’s exactly what you’d expect from a 2nd wave radfem. It’s why so many of her ideological peers are also 2nd wave radfems. I’d bet if asked she’d tell you about how big an influence someone like Mary Daly was on her views on sex and feminism - Mary Daly was a 2nd wave radfem who likened trans people to Frankenstein’s monster and whose teaching career ended because of Title IX complaints related to her refusing to teach male students.

    also she’s a bad writer.

    She’s decent at storytelling but painfully awful at world building and thinking through how existing threads from previous stories might interact with the one she wants to tell this time. Her weaknesses wouldn’t shine through as much if she were writing individual, disconnected stories instead of multi-part series in a shared universe.

      eh, there’s more to her writing that’s bad. she has a lot of plot points that go nowehere, seems to set a lot of stuff up with no payoff.

      also she uses adverbs a lot. that “he asked calmly” meme is an example. it’s generally not advised in writing to rely on them too much, and she uses like double the amount of adverbs a good writer would use.

      and of course her attempts at tying loose ends always makes them worse.

      and she pretty vile. you can see it in her descriptions.

      oh and she’s awful at naming things and people.
