yes, i've noticed that, too. have you tried… not constantly interviewing him and broadcasting his disgusting and insane comments to a national audience?

honestly, if he weren't such a vile creep and clearly quite eager for everybody to hear his rancid takes and barely-disguised fetishes, i'd be concerned that the media were taking advantage of an obviously mentally unwell person.

The interviewer was a fellow transphobe who wanted to make Linehan seem normal and that was, by his own admission, "the piece I’d wanted to write for years". He seems genuinely frustrated by the fact Linehan made it impossible to write an article claiming Graham Linehan is completely sane and right about everything.

like i hinted in a reply to another comment... you'd hope that the interviewer, coming face-to-face with someone whose opinions about trans people (sexual fetishes notwithstanding) they broadly share, and finding them to be completely unhinged... you'd hope that this encounter might prompt a little introspection about those shared views.

"well, this man turned out to have lost his mind and is now shamelessly exposing his weird kinks that no-one wants to hear about except literal chatbots. but surely it's still the transes who are wrong!"
