I always thought she was a pretty big FF, but she went up another level due to this:



That's the only time I've ever seen her being anything remotely resembling rude to someone, and couldn't pick a more deserving target either!

(Yes that's Suey Park of #cancelcolbert fame)

The middle tweet is also quite amusing, since someone ten years younger than RHE is 24, aka an adult. Someone ten years younger than Suey Park is 14...yeah that makes things a little different.

Some intersectional feminists were getting on RHE about how she's not a "real" feminist due to being a cisgendered heterosexual white woman and can't understand people outside those categories. She gave some responses, Suey attacked her on that.

So basically one of those "all white people are racist by existing" types, eh?  Glad she got called out on it.

I'm generally in favor of intersectionality and I think "white feminism" (which is kind of a terrible name because it doesn't literally mean all white people who are feminists) is stupid. However, Suey Park is also terrible so I like people who criticize her. Overall I'm not going to vote until I look up Evans.

She's kind of a hipster Christian icon (I've heard her quoted and reference multiple times in sermons), which is kind of ironic because besides being liberal and relatively young she doesn't have much in common with hipster Christians. She's an Episcopalian and more of a liturgical high church Nathan-type,

Of course the fact that she actually believes in God puts her closer to hipster Christians than many Episcopal clergy.
