I want Liam Porter to find his audience. This is his fourth documentary deep-dive into a tortured and fallen soul, and every time he brings context and pathos and the cold, clear light of day. His 3K YouTube stats are bullshit.

That was very much the style of New Atheism.
In Watson's newest video, she reveals that the earlier speaker she addresses ("the esteemed Paula Kirby") who had denied sexism as a problem in atheism, was later revealed to have been Dawkins' secret lover at the time.

A picture Mike Diana posted in late 2025 about new releases of some of his films from the 1980s-1990s. https://www.factorytwentyfive.com/shop/mike-diana
I'm Facebook friends (lol) with Mike, and while he doesn't post much anymore, it seems like he's still active in the zine, film, and art-show scenes. Despite his unchosen claim to fame, his "comics" output was always kind of secondary to those.
Great thread, thanks for putting it all together.
Abolish ICE.
Prosecute everyone involved to the maximum degree allowed by law.
Blacklist all former ICE employees from any government job.

It is instructive to watch her mild speech about sexism and realize that Dawkins is thinking, to every example given, "well, we COULD be mutilating your genitals."

"You know, any man that can put so much violence and sex into a piece of stone, he doesn't have to violate flesh. He gets his kicks with his hammer and chisel!"
