I hate Titiana McGrath! I
hate her because she’s so good, so on the money, and is doing exactly what I
wished I’d have done years ago by getting in first (she’s a he, of course, a
fictional creation of comedian Andrew Doyle). From Wiki:
“She is a social justice warrior who promotes identity
politics and political correctness on her Twitter account. McGrath
characterizes herself as a "radical intersectionalist poet committed to
feminism, social justice and armed peaceful protest," while her creator
describes her as "a militant vegan who thinks she is a better poet than
William Shakespeare."
Troll Titiana McGrath
brilliantly sends up the left, the feminists, the snowflakes, the social justice warriors,
and everyone too easily offended by matters relating to gender, identity
politics and political correctness. She takes absurd claims by many of
society’s silliest, hysterical and most reactionary people, extends the logic
to a biting, declamatory claim, and then lobs in a sardonic
hand grenade and watches it go off:
“If there’s really a problem with gender inequality in
predominantly Muslim countries, how do you explain that there has never been a
single successful conviction in a Sharia court for misogynistic hate crime?”
"If it's true that men are superior at sports,
why is it that transgender athletes tend to win more medals after they
transition to female?"
“Women have never been more oppressed than they are
today. It’s the *illusion* of freedom that makes our oppression all the more
devastating. The fact that so many women think they are enjoying their lives
only proves my point.”
What’s so great about
Titiana McGrath is that she entertains those who, like her, can see the
nonsense of the woke culture, offends all the people that deserve to be offended
for their utter inability to achieve a balanced, reasoned worldview, and yet
does so in a way that confuses the offended individuals by leaving them
slightly unsure about whether she is one of them or one of the opposition.
By eliciting the bewildered
reaction she does, she compounds the absurdity of the very reason she exists.
Perhaps the best case in point was when she got banned from Twitter – a
ridiculous act that proved exactly the cultural point she was making. It’s a
shame we live in a world that needs a Titiana McGrath – but thank God we have
one – she came along at just the right time.
