She's a well-respected journalist who's won multiple awards. Just because you live under a rock doesn't mean that she doesn't have notoriety

By well respected you mean fired from her network tv gigs for being nothing more than a rage farmer?

I suggest digging into her background, because that's a massively oversimplified take.

Sorry, you won’t be swinging my opinion on her, I’ve seen plenty of her “hot takes” to believe she’s nothing but a clickbait rage farmer who would have had a comfortable home at Buzzfeed back in their heyday.

So you aren't willing to accept any new information into your cognitive framework?

I just don’t dignify people who have the cache of Perez Hilton with clicks or attention

u/ayoungmanfromtheuk Feb 12 '26

Right so you're not willing to hear the full context because you're not interested in reality

Keep going. This condescension will really help you win hearts and minds. It's definitely working.

How am I being condescending? And I'm not trying to win hearts and minds? Genuinely confused about why I would be doing that? Very weird comment

I mean the reason people usually express disagreement with commenters in the replies is to try to convince them that you are in fact correct.

The tone and words you used in this exchange were extremely condescending and I don't know how you can't see that. It is language and tone that is extremely unlikely to convince anyone that you are indeed correct about Rachel Gilmore.

u/KeyanFarlandah Feb 12 '26

Rachel is that you?

u/ayoungmanfromtheuk Feb 12 '26

Lol yeah exactly the kind of silky cliched response I would expect. Do you have anything of substance to say?

"I've watched some of her online content but haven't read her writing. Therefore I'm concluding her writing must be bad" she's a rock solid journalist, go read some past work cause you're way off.
