Saturday Link Love: Incels, #HomeToVote, and Podcasters

Saturday Link Love is a feature where I collect and post links to various articles I’ve come upon over the past week. Feel free to share any interesting articles you’ve come along as well! The more the merrier.

The Rage of the Incels, on The New Yorker—“Lately I have been thinking about one of the first things that I ever wrote for the Internet: a series of interviews with adult virgins, published by the Hairpin.”

#HomeToVote – and what it means to watch Irish women boarding planes to Repeal the 8th, on The Pool—“Ireland’s diaspora is desperate to repeal the Eighth. And we’ve been helping each other out: hundreds of Irish people who are no longer eligible to vote paid for flights for younger people who are eligible but struggled to afford the airfare.”

Paige Patterson and the Rape Victim He Shamed, on Istoria Ministries—“As the rape victim recounted to us her story, I had a visual in my mind of this 23-year-old walking into the den of death.”

The Racist Podcaster Who Started a Neo-Nazi Coffee Company to Fund White Nationalism, on Vice—“In the spring of 2017, Thomas White had an idea: What if he combined his love of gourmet coffee with his staunch belief in a white ethnostate?

How Not to Make a Feminist Music Video, on Feministe—“The effect is, ‘Oh, you think getting murdered in your church by a white supremacist is bad? Try being an underpaid cheerleader.'”
