Seth Rogen is a moron.

Seth Rogen's Twitter profile:




__________


This is why I try not to get involved in a lot of discussions about Israel.  I don't want people to think that because I was raised Jewish I am an authority.  I am not at all an authority, but Mr. Rogen is such a moron that I'll address it to the best of my ability:

I don't know who "they" are in Mr. Rogen's story, but I was never told that there was nobody in the area that was turned into the State of Israel before it was Israel.  I always knew that there were people who were moved, and that it was a source of conflict. 

The Jews were in diaspora for a long time before the Holocaust.  They were persecuted, killed and forced to leave one country after another for centuries before Hitler tried to kill all of them.  He wouldn't have been able to kill so many of them if other countries, including the United States, weren't also anti-Semitic.  

Israel was created to give Jews some political power and a voice.  

I can't quarrel with people who say that the conflict has legitimacy.  However, there is nothing in the world that would make me say that Israel should be rescinded. 





Someone needs to investigate the sexual assault allegations against Justin Bieber.




My attempts to persuade him to drop his lawsuit against the two women who accused him of sexual assault and to stop his lawyers' other aggressive behavior toward those women are only making things worse.

Having interacted with Mr. Bieber socially, although not directly and not in person, and also having been a target of derision and sexual abuse by his industry and the rest of the conglomerate for a decade and counting, I am neither an effective persuader nor an unbiased investigator.  

This is the Twitter account that I started to try to investigate the allegations:

https://mobile.twitter.com/2020Allegations


His denials of Kadi's allegations are also convincingly refuted by evidence that she published at her Twitter.  Unfortunately, she has changed the setting of her Twitter in response to intimidation.  

There is additional investigative work to do for both of those allegations.  Someone should be doing that work.  I should not have to do it. 

If the media can weaponize Twitter to ruin the lives of previously unknown white, middle-aged women, then it should be able to sort through the evidence that is online that Mr. Bieber is lying.  I haven't consolidated or even read most of it.   

Stop calling people "Karens."




Having lived with black men and women whose entire lives have been blighted by systemic racism, knowing also how even the systems that are supposed to help them discriminate against them and against all homeless people and add to their trauma and feelings of hopelessness, I look at the video in which Christian Cooper silently demands that Amy Cooper do his bidding on camera and I can't and won't think of him or of Melody Cooper as civil rights icons.  

Amy Cooper was about to leash her dog.  Christian Cooper wouldn't leave her alone.  Irritable New Yorkers are not news.

Vice President Biden should withdraw from the Presidential race.

If he won't withdraw, and if the Democratic Party and the media won't ask him to withdraw, then there is no reason for advocacy for women's rights and survivors' rights to decline.  These topics can't be made taboo to discuss according to political fluctuations.

If Vice President Biden is elected, then women's and survivors' organizations should be at him and his supporters every day to effect the changes that need to be made to move the world toward a fair and humane state of being.  If that makes him and his supporters uncomfortable every day that he's in office, that's their problem.

There's too much rhetoric anyway about how fabulous our politicians are.  It's stupid; who else other than celebrities have people talking all the time about what they're like?  My idea of going to work is not standing there while people talk about me.

We're all judged by the company we keep.




Increasingly, in the age of voyeurism, people are being judged by the company that they don't keep, so there's really no way to win as long as the double standard for perpetrators and survivors is applied.

I was thinking that maybe you could write the policies and procedures that you think every college should have for preventing and addressing sexual misconduct, publish them and then Tweet a link to them every day.  If all the teachers at all grade levels in the United States and around the world did that, then students would start to have a more concrete understanding of their rights and be able to advocate more effectively.  They would also be able to direct their parents to those documents so that the parents and maybe even their employers and other organizations could advocate more effectively.

It doesn't seem as if the administrations are listening.  Unfortunately, students and parents may worry about safety but since they don't know how things are being done or how they could be changed, if they do confront these administrations, it's after something has already happened, when they're the most vulnerable.

President Trump

Maybe you could start a fund in every state for survivors of sexual assault.  You are in office now; you could.  There is always a need for that funding.

Sexual assault is life-altering.  It takes years to recover, and many people never do.  The trauma can provoke everything from substance abuse to murder.  It's more than people can cope with alone.

Housing and employment



This is a topic that people don't know about if they have never been homeless.

You don't have to have a criminal record, a drug problem, emotional issues.  You don't have to be dressed wrong, inarticulate or anything else.  When employers know that you're homeless, most of them assume that anything about you is possible, and that all the possibilities are negative.   

What if Vice President Biden had assaulted you?

If it had happened to you, you'd care.





If Vice President Biden were a Republican, every female Democrat in office or not would be decrying him and calling for a real investigation or even for him to step down on the basis of Ms. Reade's already-corroborated story.  There wouldn't have been media articles and even statements from women's organizations about how it's sexist to ask women's opinions about sexual assault.  There would also be many male Democrats giving their opinions and support.

"Chatter."  You know us less important people, how we like to chatter.

Wednesday, July 29, 2020

Uh, ah, you're the star of "Romeo + Juliet."

It's upsetting to hear the lack of authority in your voice by contrast to the other two people in this conversation.

You'd think it wouldn't be like that, considering how much actors talk for a living.  However, it is like that because the written and verbal materials worked with and the everyday interactions of people in professions for which a much higher level of education is a requirement give those professionals a breadth, authority and facility that the entertainment industry doesn't.  In jobs where everyone has to be educated, everyone ends up smarter.  I'm not calling you stupid; I'll call your profession educationally underserved in its entirety.





The conversation is worth hearing despite my disagreements with some of what's said.  In the context of the interactions between black people and law enforcement, I don't dispute any of it.


Also:


-People are overdiagnosed and they are overmedicated.  Not everything about the mental health care system is bad, but if you are interested in this subject, then it is important that you consider alternative perspectives.  Researching the pharmaceutical industry's takeover of the medical establishment, the strangulation of psychotherapy by insurance companies, and the historical biases of the medical community on all axes will give you some idea of what you're dealing with.  It is very frustrating to have had so many people write me off as not knowing what helplessness in the grip of a degrading and dangerous system is because I am white.  That being said, I survived the system because of some of the advantages that being white and growing up on a college track gave me.  I was able to figure out, finally, what was going on, but not before having lost the first half of my adult life to oppression, humiliation, and despair all wrought by that system's failures.  I am still being tormented every day by people who are amused by the wreckage of my sad and awful, young adulthood.  The system blames its failures on its patients, and so does the rest of the world.  This occurs with impunity because the perception of mental health is far more susceptible to subjective interpretation than any other facet of medical care.

-The peer support community can be a resource for people who need social contact and to hear others' experiences.  Whether or not it reinforces stigma or a sense of autonomy depends on the community.  The medical establishment treats questioning of diagnosis and medication as life-threatening heresy, and there are peer support groups which reflect this type of reflexive admonishment.  The insulin metaphor has been used for at least 30 years; it is misleading, inappropriate and coercive.  The person who uses that metaphor in your discussion is not trying to be those things; I'll mention again that it has been very frustrating to have people write me off as not knowing what helplessness in the grip of an oppressive situation is.  Oppression adminstered with a smile for your own good is harder to recognize at first and harder to fight, especially since nobody will believe you and getting angry isn't a safe option.  It's even worse if you have told the oppressor your thoughts and feelings and sought the help, and the response is that you need a drug to solve what is wrong with you.

-My own experience informs most of my opinions.  I have sometimes visited the website "Mad in America," but not often because I have enough on my mind already, having spent a decade and counting saying things such as "You can't have sex with children," "Stop promoting sexual harassment, stalking and femicide" and "Stop filming people in the bathroom" to pillars of society.  You can try reading what that website and other resources for psychiatric survivors have to say.

-Homeless black men.  You think that your heart is broken, but it won't be until you have tried to talk and listen to them.

-I don't know anything about your show and don't want to watch clips of it for now.  I appreciate your genuine empathy, curiosity and interest in humanization and connection for people who are labeled.  The entertainment industry, when it does address mental health, is far more often exploitative than not, and that is obviously not at all your goal.  I hope that you won't be unintentionally exploitative by serving the oppressor in your portrayals; I don't know how else to say it.

-If, after researching all of the above, you want to change the show, don't be surprised if you are unable to do so because of the show's advertisers.  Unable to do so.

-Don't ever bother me for anything.  I hate your industry.  I won't be back.

Blaming ALL the victims







Educational requirements

Congress should make a 4-year college degree a requirement of working for the entertainment industry.  The American entertainment industry is extremely influential everywhere in the world, and it is barbaric.

Yes, I'm stuck with you, too.






_________


I'm stuck with everything that the conglomerate has done to me for the rest of my life.

Unlike most politicians, the entertainment industry doesn't set its bullying and victim-blaming side by side with its humanitarian pursuits.  While politics omits mention of the people whose lives it has destroyed as much as possible, the entertainment industry is insensible of its own moral dichotomy.  

It is the stupidest industry in the world, inflated by money, propelled by propaganda and populated by beautiful morons.  Those who don't start out stupid are made stupid as a requirement of continued employment.

I suppose that it is funny, in a way, that Ms. Kendrick needed to costar with a sex doll to underscore her intelligence.  

The entertainment industry, having so successfully branded me a slut while committing sexual crime against me, isn't content to make everyone think I'm a nymphomaniac.  It needs to complete its characterization of me as subhuman by any means necessary.*


From Google for "Anna Kendrick Dummy":











*I won't be publishing a synopsis of this page.  I hope you could stumble through it with a vague comprehension of what it says.  **




**"Synopsis" means "summary." ***






***To give a summary means to give the main points of something.  ****






****It's good to have a point.  Why don't you try it?  










The lies that go with it



It was never just going to be "Biden can beat Trump."  That's not how elections are, at least in the United States.  It's always about grafting onto the candidate the qualities that a candidate should have, and by repetition turning the composite into what's accepted as the contemporary and historical reality.  


Meanwhile:




That's from the first page of Google results for "Tara Reade."

The composite reality and the actual reality can't coexist in the same public conversation that is MANIPULATED by power, so the actual reality is jettisoned.  

He's fucking guilty.  Vice President Biden is guilty as charged, he has defamed his accuser, and it was as little effort for him to put a target on her for the rest of her life for confronting him as it was for him to assault her.    

Nobody else is saying this now, so I'll say it again:  Withdraw from the race, Vice President Biden.  You do not deserve to be President.  


Does that mean that I have to make more money to stop you from watching me in my apartment?

That's the only crime going on in this apartment, paid for primarily by Section 8, in a market-rate building.





A few

I don't try to document all the people who are promoting crime and exploiting me every day.  There are so many of them that I'll never know who they all are.

My dehumanization is established.  The conglomerate has normalized it.

Abandoned


How many girls and women will bleed to death today?

From Google:



Please give the police all the information that you have about voyeurism.


No code, I don't want to be famous, don't hack me, take the cameras out of the bathrooms and everywhere else that it's ILLEGAL for them to be.

Laughing




They're laughing in the yellow Lamborghini that was seen parked outside the Four Seasons Hotel where he said he never stayed in 2014.  Mrs. Bieber is wearing her diamond "Bieber" necklace.  

He knows that he did what the two women who accused him of sexual assault said he did.  He thinks that they deserve to have their lives ruined by his lawyers for speaking out.  

Tuesday, July 28, 2020

The name doesn't need to be rehabilitated.

There's nothing wrong with the name Karen.





You know what else?  There are several thousand more humiliating images of me (plus sound for bathroom noises) than there are of you, and I never started a GoFundMe or similar fund, asking other people to support my Tweeting lifestyle from their paychecks.  I am welfare-dependent, but I'm not totally welfare-dependent.  I have worked whenever I could work, and I have fought losing battles to keep bad jobs that paid me as little as possible to work as hard as possible, so that I could make my own money.  

I haven't asked anyone to help me have or maintain a lifestyle that could be described as privileged even by the most critical person.

I don't feel harsh toward you, and you know that.  The "Karen"-profiling is destructive.  I'm informing you that it is.  Nobody is going to respect you more because of it.  The people who don't respect you don't perceive you; "Karen"-profiling is bullying, it won't help.  

Ostracism can make its targets do really hateful things.  Social isolation for the targets is the goal of perpetrators of nonconsensual pornography.  However, you have a community; the other targets, thousands of them, suffering silently and trying to be hopeful while everyone in power allows our lives to be destroyed for the amusement of sadists.  

We are where other stigmatized people were decades ago.  We're not trendy.  It's the same process that every other stigmatized group has had to go through.  You'd think the people in power would recognize that, but they are too greedy to care, all of them, they really only care about themselves.  They don't want to know.  They'll wait until there are so many survivors of these crimes that we can't be ignored, and then they'll argue with each other and try to get something out of it and be the politicians that they are.  

We have our lives to live, somehow.  We have the pain to describe, the horror to live through, and then, the ungrateful wretches of decades from now who won't suffer because laws will finally be passed and enforced won't appreciate us.  That's how it is.  

This issue is being ignored by the people in power, men and women, as if it has nothing to do with the glass ceiling.  Nobody wants to address it; it's almost funny how afraid they all are of being contaminated by it.  Despite the initial refusal to accept women into educational institutions and many professions, it has turned out to be easier for our culture to accept women who have educations and women who work than to accept women who have sex lives.  

I'm not bringing this up to blame you, but there is not one image of me that was not filmed illegally or unethically and there is not one image of me doing anything illegal, unethical or harmful.  The abuse of imagery is about the last bastion of male power.  It is about the transition of women from objects to subjects in their own lives.  It's that transition which is being blocked by these crimes and the legal system's negligence toward them.  

An educated woman is useful.  A working woman is useful.  The utility of educated and working women to systems is what has justified the cost to male control.  Ultimately, the systems haven't had to change very much; they just have more people to choose from.

Women who have sex lives aren't putting themselves in the service of a system that can profit from them.  They are opposing a system that has always exploited them, in their own homes, and that's why the system is punishing women and threatening them with ostracism through the abuse of imagery.  

A male-dominated perspective doesn't allow for female experience that isn't manipulated by men.  Women who can't be manipulated are atttacked.  It took a long time for me to realize that there is no empathy for my experience of being repeatedly, helplessly victimized by these crimes.  What casual observers have interpreted as positive interest toward me by the perpetrators has only been an ongoing offer of additional exploitation.  Really what the perpetrators want is to have proof of my retroactive consent; if I were to sleep with one of them, they would all feel absolved of even the slight pangs of guilt that they feel less every day that there is no intervention to stop them.  They don't care if I live or die.  




Anna Kendrick?

Nominated for her show about a sex toy that's supposed to be me?

There isn't one person in this business who doesn't know that the voyeurism is real.

I have never in my life consented to have a naked or other intimate image taken of me.  All of it is illegal voyeurism; they have created a nymphomanic lie to excuse their horrible crimes.

As the years go by, and their crimes proliferate to victimize more people, they take less and less responsibility and become more vicious and invested in blaming their victims.  In their minds, they really aren't doing anything wrong, it really is my fault.

Tara Reade

Thank you.

You helped me, and I think you're helping other people, too.

It's now clear that there isn't one person in charge of anything in the United States who has fundamental decency.

It seems to be true that the more people have, the greedier they are.  The more power they have, the more power they want.  The less it would hurt them personally to do what's right, the less inclined they are to do it.

Maybe it's just these people.  Maybe it's the United States.  Who knows what it is?

At the end of the day, they can't tell the truth, while those whom they betray and minimize are in danger all the time for being honest.

I use the word "victimized" because I'm victimized.  It's not because I enjoy being a victim.  I don't know how so many people can live their lives parallel to the crimes that they're committing or that they know about and aren't stopping, while they really seem to believe in their own superiority.

As angry as I am, and as frightened as I am about what it's going to be like when these people have lied, excused and schmoozed their way back into power, I have some peace in my life because you told the truth.


George Clooney has participated in the voyeurism.

There is nobody in Hollywood who doesn't know that I'm telling the truth.

President Obama also knows that I'm telling the truth.

These people do not care about the public.

Ms. Chen is Asian.  Did American Lawyer think the article would be more convincing with a picture of a black woman?

Stop using the term "Karen."  It's disgusting.  You'd be screaming your head off if someone pejoratively characterized Asian women with a first name.

I never said that Amy Cooper was a feminist icon.  What I have said is that the video starts with her about to leash her dog.  She looks up, sees that she's being recorded, and asks that Christian Cooper please stop recording her and he doesn't.  

How long after that incident did it take for a law to be passed that is going to be permanently associated with the idea that Amy Cooper is a racist on par with a murderer?  

There's no Harvey Weinstein law, is there?  For how many years did Mr. Weinstein prey on women, in publicity central, an open secret in the M&E industry, while he did fundraising for the Democratic Party?  

I was born and raised a Democrat, and I hope this is the last time that I'm going to have to say this:


Don't call me or anyone else a Karen, and leave Amy Cooper alone.  








You have never tried to stop the voyeurism in homeless shelters.



Discrimination makes people of that community homeless every day.  You have known about the voyeurism for years; the entire fashion industry has known, and nobody has tried to help, nobody has stepped in to protect the privacy of some of the most vulnerable people who have already suffered so much.  

How much more cruel is it to film transgendered, homeless people than even all the other homeless people who have been criminally victimized for years?

You're despicable.  You're all despicable.

Support groups

My success with support groups is mixed.  The issues that are causing me stress are not what support groups are structured to deal with.  I recognize that, so I restrict what I talk about to the least unbelievable things; I don't talk in meetings about being known to famous people or being a blogger whose writing is read by the people who read it.

Things such as being victimized by voyeurism and bullied online are already somewhat beyond  the topics that are most discussed in groups.  Sometimes there is understanding and sometimes there isn't.  When there isn't, some of the people who hack my phone and who are invading the group's privacy because they want to know what I'm saying are happy to blame misunderstandings within the group on me.

That's how vicious and isolating it all really is.  Either I don't join the groups and have no support or I expose people in the groups who are talking about their pain to everyone who has bullied me for a decade and counting.

Assigning roles to people isn't journalism.

DROP THE LAWSUIT!

From Justin Bieber's Instagram:

The script was for me to kill myself from shame.

That's been the script for millenia; women whose lives are ruined in the world's leering, jeering, cheering Colosseums are expected to kill themselves.  I haven't, so far, because I have always known that I don't deserve to feel ashamed for being victimized.  The perpetrators deserve to feel ashamed.

It is, however, depressing to realize that as soon as one form of misogyny subsides or, worse, is normalized, another is about to take over.

It's one thing to be physically and socially humiliated and psychologically abused; it's another to be muzzled.

That is what is really driving the "Karen"-profiling.  I wish that women who are stupidly promoting that profiling would understand and stop.

Probably, nobody should be intimidated by my discussions of suicide.  I am having a really bad week, stopped swearing entirely today, I think, and please, who is going to blame me for killing myself someday?  What you fucking people have done to me.

Convicting Amy Cooper

The media has talked the Cooper incident up so much that if Amy Cooper isn't convicted, there will probably be more riots.  However, if she is convicted, women not only around the country but all over the world will be afraid to call 911.

I am very cynical right now.  If I had to bet, I would bet that women's lives and their right to dignity in public places are going to be thrown away in favor of political momentum.

You don't have to be irate or unreasonable to be profiled as a "Karen," not when a fad is this self-righteous and legitimized by powerful people and organizations.

I'm glad that you're not in Congress anymore.



The country doesn't need ignorant women pretending to represent women's rights, people who mistake their own brainwashed prejudices for fair-mindedness.  

Maybe you need some time to process what happened to you before you can stop supporting the destruction of other women's lives by selective public shaming, manipulated by the media.  When you have had that time, hopefully you'll stop trying to deflect the misogynist cruelty inflicted on you by participating when other women are brutalized by it in other forms.  

Confrontation

As soon as the conglomerate's snide references alerted me to having been criminally victimized by voyeurism, sometime in late 2011 or early 2012, I knew that the illegal images of me would be used by anyone and everyone to extort, coerce, control, silence, punish, ridicule, threaten and discredit me.

I said "I know that's what you're all going to do," and that is what they have all done.

As painful as it is, and as disheartening about human nature and the dynamics of power and privilege it is, I have not allowed any of the thousands of psychological abuses to which these crimes have made me vulnerable deter me from confrontation.

Justin Bieber is one of hundreds of people who has hours of illegally filmed, humiliating video of me that he could post at any time for his millions of followers, yet I have confronted him about the sexual assault allegations against him since they were made public.

Even so, nobody from the mainstream media is going to investigate those allegations?  I have none of the power, a fraction of the resources, and an excruciating and dangerous vulnerability, but you won't address these allegations while I continue to be victimized in my home every day?

Rolling Stone

You gave up on your reporter and her reporting.

Would you have done that in the nanosecond of time, framed by history, that Me Too had traction?

By the end, the Washington Post knew that it was wrong, but it had led the avalanche and wouldn't admit it.

You should buy all the court documents and find the notes from Jackie's discussions with Ms. Erdely.  One of the first things that Dean Eramo did was check if Phi Kappa Psi had a party on the night that Jackie was assaulted.  They did.  That's in the notes.

I'm sure that the reason that Dean Eramo immediately checked if there was a party was that unregistered parties plague college campuses all over the country.

Why was the swim coach let go?

How did Jackie know nicknames of male students whom she'd never met before?  It's impossible to decide which outrage is the worst, but three of those men who weren't named by their real names in the article self-identifying so they could file a lawsuit has to be one of them.

Her friend Ryan was flattered by the Haven Monahan joke; he was going to let her pay for bus and concert tickets for his birthday, until she was raped.  Before she knew that her date with Drew was going to be a gang rape, of course she told Ryan that it was "Haven Monahan" who had asked her out.  What was she supposed to say after the rape, "I lied about Haven Monahan, which you already knew but were having fun with, but now I've been raped and I don't know what to say?"  18-year-olds don't talk like that.

Where was Drew for 6 years, from when he was first a student and a member of another fraternity at UVA to the time that he was matriculated again and met Jackie?  His absence is documented in the Charlottesville Police Department's victim-blaming, perpetrator-absolving statement.  What about the Drew's financial records that "may have been relevant" to Jackie's story about Drew taking her to dinner on the night she alleged that she was later raped?

Why did Phi Kappa Psi have an old picture from the night of the alleged rape, a picture of nothing going on, by the time that the police investigated, 2 years later? Who keeps a picture of nothing going on in college?

All of the above is what I remember without even rereading what I wrote.  There were a thousands inconsistencies in the defense, and even blatant factual errors in the articles attacking the Rolling Stone article, and all the mainstream media did was ignore them or repeat them.

You know that I wrote about this case for years.  I was going to write about it during the summer of 2017, but I was evicted for my "false" accusations of voyeurism in my apartment, accusations which I'd say that you know were true.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist.  I'm just not as impressed by prestige as I used to be.

Do you remember what the Charlottesville Police Department used to question the fraternity?  A questionnaire; answers voluntary.  Maybe the police department was out of lightbulbs and all the interrogation rooms were full, or maybe UVA has one of the oldest law schools in the country and is where people who work in and for Washington, D.C. have sent their children for so many years that the genteel method of questioning rape suspects and their accomplices is in no danger of being displaced.

If California is an epicenter of the commercialized misogyny with which the United States has brainwashed the world for a century, then the University of Virginia is an epicenter of the nepotism and rape apology that have paralyzed our court and criminal justice systems despite every incarnation of the women's movement.



Vice President Biden is guilty.

From Google for "AOC":






I didn't have a problem with Representative Ocasio-Cortez's speech, but the way that most of the media has responded to it is diametric to the way that most of the media responded to Tara Reade's allegations, which were about a criminal incident.

The Democratic Party and the media have chosen not to have integrity and not to be consistent.  They are content with gestures when gestures suit their agenda.  They want the credit for making the United States an equal place, but they won't take the necessary risks to make it that way.  

I shouldn't have to be brilliant.

I shouldn't have to be brilliant to survive what is happening to me.  It shouldn't be happening to me or anyone else.

Why?

Why have my confrontations of the obvious falsity of Justin Bieber's denials of the sexual assault allegations against him yielded no positive results from him or from the media?

Instead, he has increased his taunting about the conglomerate's crimes of voyeurism.


From Justin Bieber's Instagram:





Through his lawyers, Justin Bieber has continued to aggress against the two women who accused him of sexual assault.  It is his plan to ruin their lives to protect himself.

Why hasn't he dropped his $20 million lawsuit against his accusers?  Why has nobody challenged the lies that his lawyers have told to persuade a judge who doesn't know what's going on to allow those lawyers to pursue the accusers at Twitter and expose their identities?

Why is the media not investigating?

I guarantee that there is no jealousy involved in my confrontation about those assaults.  Mr. Bieber hasn't stopped hitting on me even during his engagement and marriage.  Some people do not know how to stop being competitive.







I'm not entirely gone to seed and when I haven't been writing while neglecting all hygiene other than flossing in the middle of the summer, I'm not unattractive.  However, there is no contest between me and a 23-year-old model, nor did I ever say there might be one.

From the onset of the conglomerate's insanity in 2010, when I was 35, I said "I don't think that dating a celebrity would be that much fun.  Those guys have a parade of women, thousands of them, around them 24 hours a day for the rest of their lives.  I could be the most beautiful woman in the world and no relationship could cope with having that many other options."   That was before I even knew about the industry's entrenched misogyny, its criminality and its unquestioning, belligerent conviction of its entitlement.  This industry's predatory value system is incomprehensible to the average person, although the average person doesn't know it.

My being victimized by voyeurism was never about what I looked like.  It was, and is, a crime of power and of social, professional and political coercion.

As for celebrities having spent a decade competing to sleep with me; they do that because they are macho and misguided by stupid ideas about conquest.  They do not ever think about why I never concede; they merely continue the contest while degrading me.

The women of that industry are so childish, ignorant and totally uneducated about dynamics of gender, power and wealth that they do one or both of two things:  seethe with jealousy which their partners or love interests manipulate, or also hit on me.  Their idea of solidarity with other women is ganging up to hate someone.  They are so used to being degraded that their only gauges for their own lives are how much money they have, how many people think they're beautiful, and how attached their boyfriends or husbands seem to be to them.

These people do not know what reciprocity is.  Their lives are intellectually, morally and emotionally bankrupt.  Generations of them have lived that way.

Like many other people, Justin Bieber has written songs about me for a decade and counting.  I have resisted all offers of material advantage from this industry, which the industry's warped interpretation translates into my deserving a decade and counting of abuse.

I support LGBTQ rights and protections.

I also think that gender stereotyping and categorization are unhelpful and sadly prevalent everywhere.  Empathetic boys and energetic girls shouldn't be made to think that they are gay or that they were born in the wrong bodies.  Empathy and energy aren't rationed by chromosomes.

I bought "The Antidote for Everything," by Kimmery Martin, on Saturday and finished it last night.  It was nice to read a book by someone who is logical and humane and who can turn a phrase without overdoing it.  People who would like an introduction to the personal and professional catastrophes that can result from discriminatory legislation and business administrations should read this book.

My support for equal opportunity for everyone does not extend to being mistreated by anyone.  Me Too, which was dismantled by the Democratic Party for its own political gain as quickly as it had been co-opted by the Democratic Party, never supported male survivors of sexual assault as much as it should have.  There were a few discussions of the sexual abuse of men by other men in the entertainment industry, but not as many as there are actual incidents of this type of abuse.  It is also a terrible problem in the military.

Unfortunately, male survivors of sexual abuse are at the crux of cultural norms that shame them for being victimized and also fear of adding stigma and stereotyping to gay men.  Male survivors of sexual abuse are supported by neither the left nor the right.  They are men in no man's land.

So you're not only a hypocrite; you are also corrupt.




I'm not lying about the voyeurism that has criminally victimized what have to be now thousands of people in the Boston area since the summer of 2011, and several dozen at a Vermont homeless shelter in the late winter/early spring of the same year.  

Every politician in the country has been criminally negligent about this issue.  

You know, I'd like to be jealous of you.  I wish that my immaturity were the cause of my anger, but the fact is that you were moved toward this job in place of someone who had done a lot to try to help women and to advance racial equality.  The New York Times turned you into a political star and you are photogenic and charismatic, so much of the rest of the media has followed.  The New York Times unfairly ended your predecessor's political career and more or less slandered him by making him seem as if he didn't take you as seriously as you deserved.  You were not and are not qualified to be where you are, and your inability, through lack of experience, to consistently make good decisions, combined with the clout which you have been given and which you don't deserve, are doing a lot of damage.  

Apparently, sexual crime isn't limited to professional, male athletes.

I'm so tired of feeling afraid.

Nobody should have to feel afraid all the time.  In a country that's supposed to be free, constant fear is the last thing that anything or anyone should be making me feel.

How many girls and women will bleed to death today?

From Google for "FGM statistics":




Please give the police all the information that you have about voyeurism.


No code, I don't want to be famous, don't hack me, take the cameras out of the bathrooms and everywhere else that it's ILLEGAL for them to be.

Tara Reade, what's wrong with you?

Next time, be more important when someone sexually assaults you.


From Google for "AOC":



Surreal

From Time's Up's Twitter:











It's officially time for more sexually harassing fish jokes.

From Google for "Reese Witherspoon":








Don't forget that Ms. Witherspoon is also a civil rights activist, when civil rights are trending.



From Ms. Witherspoon's Twitter:










Blaming the victim is now trending again.



Not that the conglomerate stopped committing crimes against me or blaming me for them during the Me Too phase.

Ms. Swift wasn't the only celebrity to exploit that phase, and she won't be the only one to recede to the pre-Me Too mindset.  

Gosh, what's "relevant?"
