In this video, she claims trans people are a consequential amount of the population because Jews were a minority in WW2 too.

this to me is the big fat exhibit A of the major fundamental changes of feminism that "wokeness", trans issues and general purity scolding brought onto the movement: famously online women back in the day were the kinda people who were the first to call even approaching them to ask them out as acting "rape-y", but now those same women with the hivemind battering into them that trans people are under a genocide for not getting exactly what they want are now the first to tell you that cutting off girl's tits is totally normal, that if a man rapes a woman he should be given a harem in prison by transferring him to the girl's prisons because he said he feels like a woman and that a gaggle of porn-addicted scrotes should be given priority over actual women and that if you're a lesbian you have to take the girldick or you're a bigot. Rebecca stood on the shoulders of women from the start, but to see her curbstomp feminism in the name of trannyism is disgusting. Handmaiden shit. With the Kirk stuff it seems that being annoyingly left wing was always the vision, if everyone got on board with her about feminism stuff she's go forward with deconstructing feminism in the name of black power or whatever. She hates the idea of empirical evidence as evidenced by her ignoring the genetic reality of pitties and trying to deboonk an actual physicist so idk why she ever signed up with the Skeptics other than that she didn't like her Christian dad

I knew this bitch shouldn't be listened to the moment she started defending Amber Heard, citing that shitty "Who Trolled Amber" podcast. Because some shitty podcast made by limies probably bribed by the UK government who think bots are why Depp won, is apparently more trustworthy than the American jurors and judge.

I don’t think I’ve heard anyone mention her in years, although I parted ways with the Skeptic community a long time ago.

For someone who was so influencial she just completely vanished when she left Skeptics Guide. It’s like it gave everyone permission to ignore her shit.

I look at the thumbnails on her YouTube channel and those view numbers are terrible and probably botted.

Rebecca Watson is still very much alive, and she has a YouTube channel with approx 230,000 subs. I find it odd there are no comments referring to her recent rather hilarious videos revealing that yes she is in the Epstein files, having thoroughly terrified Dawkins and Krauss. They seem to view her as the Dark Witch Queen (direct Dawkins quote since he’s so articulate /sneed “nasty young woman”) behind the howling feminazi nasties who dared to question their sex pest behavior (apparently Krauss can’t be allowed on cruises anymore). She still gets daily death threats.

That podcast was a truly unholy abomination. Amber Heard lost because her claims were ludicrous with zero evidence such as one single medical record documenting when he supposedly sliced her nether regions with a broken bottle. She in fact defamed Depp, he hired a superb legal team, he was the light of ten thousands suns of charisma on the stand vs her absolutely pathetic Mommie Dearest level of hyperbolic cacophonous whining that became a black hole of shifting lies and hysteria, and her lawyer SUCKED.

Wow, ultra-rare holofoil Watson W. Credit where it's due, she caught this one early.

Wait wait wait wait wait, so this woman who was accused of being a feminist hag trying to cancel a good man was actually aware of the Epstein trafficking and trying to investigate it? I remember this scandal clearly, I remember the outcome was men talking about how they're afraid to stand in elevators with women.

Yep. The Elevatorgate hag. A runner at virtually every atheist convention until the night someone dared ask her for coffee.

okay but the evil hag was investigating Jeffery Epstein and if she was successful she might've saved a bunch of kids from being raped

"Might have" is doing a whole lot of heavy lifting here. All she knew was "Epstein bad. Krauss knows and defended Epstein. Krauss shouldn't be allowed to speak at atheist conferences." No deeper than that.

Epstein had already served his prison sentence for procuring an underaged prostitute and been added to the sex offenders registry by 2011 - it doesn't seem she was turning up anything new, and indeed her article about which Dawkins was whining (archive) assumed that the reader was already familiar with Epstein being a sleaze and was mostly about fedoralord infighting, with her (reasonably) targeting Lawrence Krauss for his white-knighting of Epstein rather than digging up anything that wasn't already part of the 2008 verdict.

While the possibility of being the one to stop Epstein does incline me to support her, did her sperging perhaps harm the legitimacy of her claims and therefore the legitimacy of future claims? It is a question that comes up over and over in culture war past.

I’m not surprised since Dawkins was the same guy who defended “Mild” Pedophilia a bit back, but as people have said it seems like she only found this out through her hatred of men and it only fueled that hatred even more.

Do you remember Elevatorgate from back in 2011? Where atheist vlogger Rebecca Watson accused this guy of creepily asking her for sex and coffee in a hotel elevator at 4 am in the morning.

Yeah, that isn't what happened. Here is what she said in her own words:

... All of you except for the one man who didn't really grasp, I think, what I was saying on the panel, because, at the bar later that night — actually at four in the morning, we were at the hotel bar, four a.m. I said I've had enough guys, I'm exhausted, going to bed, so I walked to the elevator, and a man got on the elevator with me and said "Don't take this the wrong way, but I find you very interesting and I would like to talk more, would you like to come to my hotel room for coffee?" Um, just a word to the wise here, guys, don't do that. I don't really know how else to explain that this makes me incredibly uncomfortable, but I'll just sort of lay it out that I was a single woman, you know, in a foreign country, at four a.m., in a hotel elevator with you, just you, and I, don't invite me back to your hotel room right after I've finished talking about how it creeps me out and makes me uncomfortable when men sexualise me in that manner.

So, he didn't explicitly ask for sex, and as for it being creepy, that's up to debate.

She didn't appreciate the offer. Okay, fine, whatever, who gives a fuck. She seems like some BPD bitch for getting so worked up by a guy asking if she wanted some coffee.

The only credit I will give Rebecca Watson on this one is that she was smarter than all of them to call out associating with a pedophile after he had been convicted. It is hard to believe all of the skeptics who bought the "It's not what you think" line by this con man.

Also, given what we know, Epstein probably pressured Lawrence Krause to write that defense of Epstein. He was doing everything he could in order to pressure others to help rehabilitate his image.

I don't think I heard of RW before, but she's doing her bit to junk the false gods of the skeptic movement like Dawkins and Pinker, whose names hopefully will be forever bracketed with Epstein.

If she had gone to have the coffee at 4am and then complained he just tried to have sex with her, you’d call her a dumb cunt for not realising the coffee was a euphemism for sex, but here it suits you to play retard and immediately defend some random man you’ve never met who waits until he’s in an enclosed space before asking a woman to be alone with him.

Having the social intelligence to realise how that comes across is something you’re perfectly capable of when it allows you to circle back around to hysterics. She relayed a random story that creeped her out, didn’t even name the person, in the midst of batting off emails from human trafficking enjoyers defending their pedo friend. The former should’ve been forgotten as soon as it happened. The latter is interesting and elucidating.

But yeah further kvetching about elevator-gate is definitely sane and not faggy at all. (Grammar edit)

I'm going entirely from memory from damn near if not well over a decade ago so apologies if I'm mixing things up or straight up hallucinating, but

Didn't she also claim she had some extremely rare and selective (as in, fake) form of neurological condition that impeded her from recognizing faces, sometimes, and therefore she couldn't tell who the elevator coffee guy was, making the entire incident likely to have been completely fabricated?
