Do you happen to have on hand any article or even blog post or something that goes into detail about NYCrimes’ evil stance on trans women? I have an older liberal (but very pro-LGBTQ for a boomer lib) relative who thinks it’s the pinnacle of journalism and I’m going to start trying to convince her of what a wretched fascist-abetting rag they are.
I don’t think you’re going to have a lot of luck with that, tbh.
I’ve been trying to convince my mom of the same thing for years at this point, and I’ve made exactly no progress. It doesn’t matter that all of her children are trans and we take every opportunity we can to point out transphobia in the NYT, in her mind any instances of transphobia in the NYT are scattered one-offs and don’t come together to form any kind of a pattern of transphobia. That’s ridiculous, of course, but my mom is absolutely incapable of believing that the NYT is anything but the best journalistic outlet in the world and there is no amount of evidence to the contrary that will sway her.
I sincerely hope you have better luck with your relative than I have, but if I were you I’d plan for disappointment.

obvious take incoming but if ya replace “transphbia” n “NYT” with just about any other two you’ve gotcherself THE standard
liberal mindset
Next to getting tear gassed, seeing things and remembering them might be the most radicalizing experience a human can have.

This episode was decent for going over some of their awful takes and bias. Patreon only though, if someone runs an ftp server I could upload it?
Thank you!
It looks like jumble.top has a pirate feed for that podcast, so I’ll subscribe to that and find it from there.
