We’re getting awfully tired of NBC News’ Ben Collins, who lists himself in his Twitter bio as a senior correspondent on the “dystopia beat.” What this really means is he’s a leftist activist who gets to pretend to be a journalist. The last we checked with him, he said that as a reporter who covers “extremism and lies” for a living, you’re not going to like where Twitter is headed now that Elon Musk owns it and has said he wants it to be politically neutral. Add in Tucker Carlson, whom the New York Times reports as a fact has the most racist show in cable news history, and you’ve got a powderkeg. Check out this scoop:
Nina Jankowicz published a book last week called "How to Be a Woman Online: Surviving Abuse and Harassment, and How to Fight Back." She is now trending along with the term "Joseph Goebbels" because Tucker Carlson called her an "illiterate fascist" last night. Checks out.

It does check out, mostly … we know she’s read the Harry Potter books, so she’s not illiterate. Fascist?
Collins seems to be making a point by pointing out that the head of our shiny new Disinformation Governance Board published a book called, “How to Be a Woman Online: Surviving Abuse and Harassment.” He’s not making the point he seems, seeing as he just published a Twitter thread explaining how the woman behind Libs of TikTok had it coming.
I guess I'm finding out for the first time, that some people read 1984 and come to the conclusion that Big Brother is the good guy in the story.

Unfortunately, most of the DC establishment uniparty sees it as an instruction manual.

Meh.

Let's see if I can guess the thesis of Agent Jankowicz's book: "You're only picking on me because I'm a cute girl with great progressive ideas!"

We all are just mad because we can’t date her.
Might want to do a bit more investigative journalism on this one bud.

She knew what a woman was? That's a step in the right direction I guess.

What is her new job?

Maybe she can sing an annoying song about it
— Meme Gene (@pseudnonymus) April 30, 2022
You don’t think it has more to do with her being appointed to a government agency charged with policing speech the government doesn’t like?

I don't know about illiterate, but fascist seems accurate. pic.twitter.com/cwyA5jSqcC

Hope she sees this…

Yeah this is all tuckers fault and definitely has nothing to do with her being named to Biden’s new Ministry of Truth. Everyone on the internet watches Tucker and does whatever he says! I am a very smart liberal

I wonder what thing about her that you fail to mention would be the key link to the Goebbels comparison.

So she’s trying to sell a book right now?
