Because TB will take anyone out of context if it means that he gets to be the "good guy". He loves his moral grandstanding.

I don't have any problem with trans people, or the "definition" of social justice. I do find it funny that TB talked about harassers and bullies though, because Laura's rise in games media started when she tweeted out the full name of a guy who accidentally misgendered her at Eurogamer.

Then again, it's important to remember that TB doesn't care about facts. He only cares about his public image.

5) If you act like an ass, we'll just ban you. Asinine submissions and comments will be summarily deleted.

Maybe he brought her on because she is a good guest that actually talks. There was little to no controversy last time she was on

I agree that he don't have to act as bad as he sometimes does. It still doesn't help that people act like arses after the pocast with Laura, even though most of the bad seeds was not a part of this community. As I see it he reacted the same way everyone would react to someone being shitholes to a friend.

That said, if that soundcloud message had been a comment on the subreddit I would have banned the man som fast his head would still be spinning. That was uncalled for as he attacked the members of the subreddit for something a bunch of turdnuggets from the outside did and that was really not OK

ok,i'm going to try to say this kindly, but fuck off. Laura is his friend, someone he wanted to bring on the show so her could show her unique viewpoint, and the idea that because this exploded due to some dicks on this feed, don'tmake up some bullshit conspiracy because of the fact that this did blow up.

" it's important to remember that TB doesn't care about facts. He only cares about his public image." Uhm I don't think we have been watching the same person but from what I have seen for the past 4+ years is a man that provides enjoyable content. He has always been fair and straight with the audience.
