These tweets are taken out of the larger context of the subject Pool was talking about.
Everybody's been praising the woman swimmer who finished second to the trans dude in that recent competition. They're saying she's the real winner, calling her stunning and brave, etc.
Pool said he doesn't have much sympathy for her, because she and the other women in the competition won't stand up for themselves and call bullshit on the obvious biological male dominating a women's sport. None of them want to be the first to point out that the Empress has no clothes, and her feminine penis is clearly visible.
He's not wrong. Remaining silent and continuing to participate in this farce as if all this is normal and the world hasn't gone insane is being complicit in the lie.
This sentiment, of course, made Twits lose their shit.
These tweets are Pool giving examples of not tolerating bullshit, not some spontaneous mental breakdown apropos of nothing.
I'm not a huge Tim Pool fan by any means, but context matters.
Anyone in a position to be paid "hundreds of thousands of dollars" by anyone ought to be held to a higher standard than a college student. "To whom much is given much is required."
Notice he didn't say over what time period. Someone who makes $26k/yr as an intern for four years has been paid "hundreds of thousands of dollars"...
