Amanda Marcotte is a well known name to those of us who were denizens of the early 2000s blogosphere. She was also a blogger at the time, and the 2008 Presidential campaign of John Edwards (yes, that john Edwards, the one who had a kid with a mistress and flamed out of politics) hired her as their official campaign blogger, which was a big deal at the time.
Her schtick back then was what we now call 3rd wave radical feminism, (see here for the drama when she resigned from the Edwards campaign. Note the boilerplate radfem quotes.)
I note that this entire story is written from the radfem position, which is very old hat for her. She was full of shit back then, and I see that nothing has changed.

I haven't seen her name in a while. I used to go mess with her
