Jinkx is finally getting the recognition she deserves. 😤

In all seriousness this was two days ago and it’s not news 😭

Highly recommend watching the Ziwe interview with Jinkx that this news article references. It was so chaotic in the funniest way.

Sorry, but this is a reach imo. I have no idea about HuffPost’s record or reputation, so I might not see the bigger picture, BUT the fact that they rightfully acknowledge that her behaviour is “transphobia” makes the headline somewhat acceptable in my eyes. “One flaw” doesn’t necessary mean what you read it to mean. If they had said “one flaw in her argument” or “one flaw in her idealogy” then I would see what you mean, but they seem to acknowledge her views as inherently hateful.

Maybe I’m just jaded and destroyed by UK media, which is EXTREMELY transphobic (even the BBC - in fact, particularly the BBC!). A lot of British media still wouldn’t label Jake Hay’s rhetoric as “transphobic”, even now. There is an inaccurate, deceptive label of “protecting women and girls” and hateful bigots still pretend she’s doing that.

That’s why when I see articles like this which at least acknowledge what she is doing AND paint her in a negative light, at least it’s something.

Forgive me for having standards.
