    Very kind of all three to soften the criticism by referring to Penny using female pronouns. Or is that because referring to him using male pronouns would result in Twitter bans? Hmmm.

    If you want a laugh, check out this music video by Penny’s autogynephilic ex, whom she styles her “lovely wonderful ex-girlfriend” who is “also a brilliant writer and thinker”:

    I have so many questions. Why did they cart their weapons out to the woods? Are they planning to bash some squirrels and cook them over a campfire? What is the little child doing there? Who wears an oversized cat head to the woods? Who thought this was a good idea?

    Laurie Penny used to get paying gigs in respectable media eg she was a contributing editor for the New Statesman. There’s only so long you can be an enfant terrible, especially as so much media has turned into creches for the mass wailing of enfants terribles.

    On her day she can write very good reportage. But she can’t think and she can’t analyse and should cease trying.
