The Washington Post's "Libs of TikTok" Nothingburger

A brief note on an impressively vacuous piece of journalism

The Washington Post, in the person of sobbing wokestress Taylor Lorenz, ran a story the other day about the “Libs of TikTok” account. I said some half-hearted things in defense of it initially. After a second look, I take them all back. If the Columbia Journalism School offered a class called “Dogshit Exposés,” this would be on the syllabus. It may not be first-week material, but it’s in the course.
