So, to call back to another story on this site about what constitutes a bully, is Schumer the bully here? By the power-dynamic definition discussed there, Schumer was definitely the bully, because she used her power not only to shame this guy, but to send hordes of fans after him in attack mode.

Amy Schumer’s a well-documented piece of shit, so it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if she distorted the truth in this instance.

To be fair lots of left wing recent grads don’t seem to understand it fully either. I volunteer with a decidedly left leaning group that involves young adults living in intentional community and working with non profits. We’ve had to have a handful of conversations over the years that while reverse sexism is not a…
