Pronouns in her intro, using the word “folks”, calling pedos a “marginalized group”, calls the word pedophile a “hurtful insult” that is “hurled at people” to “slander” them, says being a pedo is “not a choice”.
5 years ago this would be satire.
15 years ago liberals would laugh at you for saying the slippery slope would get us here.
I think it's still fine as a direct address, "Hi folks!" or other similar usages. It only grates on me when used to refer to a generic, unspecific, "<x group> folks" set of unnamed people. Usually also when the speaker claims to be speaking on their behalf.
"Hi" is no good. Too corporate speak. "Hiya folks" invokes old Donald Duck, which ironically is pure corporate speak, but seems much less currently-sanitized.
The left’s argument that gays are “born this way” flies directly in the face of their trans argument that trannies can choose to transition at any time.

I actually like the word, it's a shame these fucks ruined it, like they've ruined so many other things.

I get what you're saying, but I think the word's pretty suspect on its own by this point, too, sadly. Even "Hi folks!" sends up red flags.

Don't asshole wokies spell it "folx"?
The idea of "born this way" is deeply ingrained in society, which seems weird because they also believe in "blank slate" which is the exact opposite.

That's true.
And every action is a choice.
Makes me believe that she is in fact also a pedo.
If the shoe fits, bitch.
