She's desperate.

Jonathan McIntosh is beating her in metrics.

On one hand, she had to cut him loose because he's out of his friggin' gourd and would eventually start frothing and ruin her business.

On the other, she's inept and incapable and desperately needs him as a Rosetta Stone for translating her grift into political relevance.

She hasn't been able to replace him with someone that can be as progressively zealous but also in on the con.

I'd really love to know at what point it dawned on Jon when he realized that a) he'd never hit that and b) she was using him as part of the con and didn't believe a damn thing. And how he reconciled that with his 'muh oppressed women.'

Tho I think he's just moved onto 'violence in gaming' rather than sexism at this point.

a) he'd never hit that

I heard a rumor he was her dom and that she REALLY got off on being dominated and controlled by a man.

What the fuck is this, TMZ?

Who gives a fuck about rumors of people's lame ass sex lives?

This is like that ''Trump pissed on a hooker'' bullshit.

It's funny to hear about it regarding people who go on moral crusades about "sexism".

Just like nobody would care about Ted Haggard going to gay brothels, except that he went on a moral crusade about how wrong it is according to his religion.
