Content consumption isn't praxis. Parasocial relationships are real but not material. Examine all media critically. Jesse gender is good when she's good and bad when she's bad. If her analysis is based on bad faith arguments, poor framing, low context, lack of empirical studies, etc. then it should be criticized on those grounds. Parasocially liking someone should be something you try to not let control you. It's a one way window after all.
