But will any lib call out this “gratuitous sexism”?
Some gratuitous sexism from Stephen King, not to mention gratuitous mockery of women who waitress for a living. https://t.co/jJie3tivWU

Maybe Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can explain it to him:
Perhaps @aoc can explain to Mr. King why this isn't ok. https://t.co/gyJyamsdLZ

It really was a bad tweet from the liberal author:
This isn't just sexist, it's asserting cocktail waitressesing is somehow the job of a lesser being. https://t.co/oP6Blo1VnE

But, when you’re a lib, they let you do it:
Sexism is apparently ok when you’re a bonafide liberal and the target is a Republican. No one’s going to cancel his next book. https://t.co/nB71zCxCjE
