if someone can put all the blame on women, you bet they'll do it.

The audacity of someone who works for THE NEW YORK TIMES which regularly refuses to fact check politicians and both-sides every single issue for the sake of clicks or ratings blaming fanfiction and Romantasy for the rise of fascism is like a fucking Onion headline
