** The fact that a review of a film called "Gayniggers From Out of Space" even got posted on the site is probably down to this. Even Diamanda was amazed they let her do it.

* ViewerGenderConfusion: A lot of people who first see her, and a lot of commenters on TGWTG - the majority of whom are horribly insulting about it - can't immediately tell if Diamanda is a man or a ButchLesbian. For the record, she's the latter. This was lampshaded in her review of ProjectMillion, which she starred in.

* HilariousInHindsight: She says in a review that she watches GameOfThrones and supports Stannis. [[spoiler: Considering he had his daughter burned alive as a sacrifice, this ends up making it hilarious considering Hagan's sociopathic nature.]]
** In her "Freaks" review she says the circus strongman is a bit of a dick who'd totally be gay if the film was made today. Fast forward to Dell from AmericanHorrorStory...
** Alistair's boyfriend's name being Basil is hilarious considering The Doctor jokingly saying his name is Basil in The Zygon Inversion.

* TheyJustDidntCare: One of her complaints about "Sunset Heights" is that the movie get the geography of the West and East sides of Derry/Londonderry/Cooterville wrong, which is something that Northern Irish viewers (the people most likely to see the movie) would notice.

** Linkara feels this way about Ada in ''Zsazsa Zaturrnah''. Her father tries to drown her for being transgender, her niece constantly misgenders her, and her boyfriend breaks up with her because his family doesn't approve of her being gay/transgender/a different religion (and right after she gave him a lot of money to help support his schooling, too).
