Holy fuck Emma sucks. I know she has big shoes to fill, but I'm not even saying she's bad because she can't balance humor and seriousness like Michael could (who can?) or because she's not as funny as Michael was (who is?), she's just really fucking awful on her own merits.
Michael and Jamie challenged Sam and pulled the overall show to the left at least a little bit. From the little I've listened to since Michael's passing, it really seems like Emma just stews in the same tepid succdemmery that Sam does
"As a trans woman" I honestly hate that kinda shit so much, especially when you've been explicit about your pronouns. Cis people don't know how invalidating getting called "man" is when you've fought for years to be seen as a woman. And the "oh they just call everyone dude/man" thing is BS. It's easy to avoid if you actually try. The more it's waived off as being "fine because they do it to everyone" the more that person doesn't learn to adapt and change their language.

How so?
Her politics, mainly.
