"Categorizing half of the American populace based on the views/actions of fringe nutjobs is absurd"
1) Lena Dunham has called for the extinction of white men.
2) The President of the United States then sent his teen daughter to do an internship with this "fringe nutjob".
Sorry, this crazy, hateful bigot is not "fringe", she's squarely in the mainstream of the modern Democratic Party. They need to fix that if they're planning to ever win a national election again.
- andybak 9y ago> Lena Dunham has called for the extinction of white men Had to Google that. Is there more than the 30 second animation? Because as a straight white male, I didn't feel particularly victimised by it.
- Turing_Machine 9y agoIt doesn't matter whether you, personally, feel "victimised" by it. Most participants in Internet lynch mobs don't actually feel personally threatened by whatever it is they're screaming about. If she had done that to any other identifiable group, she would have been hounded from the public sphere. Instead, she gets rewarded with some personal time with the President's daughter. Do you think Trump, or Bush II, or Bush I, or Reagan, or Nixon... would have sent their child off to intern with someone who called for the extinction of, say, black people? Nope. And no, that's not the bottom of her lunacy, not by many, many levels.
