What the hell does the bottom post even mean? Is she saying she prefers segregated bathrooms? I knew she is a TERF but she's apparently also racist?
For a professional writer you'd think she would know that a quotation (even a fictional one) requires quotation marks around it to make it clear to the reader that it's not what you are saying but somebody else. Perhaps this makes more sense:
She's mocking the people who replied to her.
Wow she really isn’t very good.
How were we so starved for something that we latched onto her baloney?
I don't read it like a quote. She's telling John an opinion (sarcastically) and then letting him know the activists will inform him the same thing. It's not grammatically incorrect, just difficult to parse (which is still not the best writing).
I’ve heard that she isn’t a great writer.
Not to defend her, but she's saying that the ""woke"" crowd is saying what she's saying is as bigoted as segregated bathrooms. She's racist for entirely independent reasons
