Yeah, she really is an alcoholic. She has posts and videos going back 4 years to document her alcohol abuse, with new examples added frequently.Søren Lilholt wrote:OMFG. She really is an alcoholic.Apples wrote:
Do her SJW friends give a fuck? What are they doing to help this woman? Or would that be too normal a reaction to expect?
I don't think the SJW fans of hers notice. Maybe Zvan goes to the conferences and, being an older woman, notices the drunken frat behavior. Maybe that's why she agreed with Greta that "people" (no names named) in the atheist community need to avoid self-medicating with alcohol. But who knows. I do know that, if you go to that Darkmatter video I posted ("I'm a dead man"), there are a lot of people in the comments claiming that this wild frat party behavior is totes natural and awesome. So there is probably resistance to those in the atheist community who argue that alcohol abuse is not a positive thing. I have noticed a tendency among certain atheist circles to paint anyone urging responsible alcohol use as a religious conservative abolitionist.
Maybe Rebecca realizes that her alcoholism increases her risk of being assaulted or otherwise harmed, and the Skepchick position on drunk sex is a transparently selfish way for her to keep boozing herself stupid in public places without consequence. After all, these events are giving her free alcohol. No point in letting a single bottle get away! Gotta drink 'em all!
