I barely have words... I am shocked at how this is being reported. Absolutely disgusting to see Rose painted as the bad guy. The alll-encompassing aggressive narcissism of these TIM-TRAs is very, very concerning.
I feel so bad for Rose. Who wouldn't become slightly enrgaged given the circumstances, her vulnerability at that moment and the bizarreness that she ends up being the one who is accused and attacked. She is bearing the brunt of this on behalf of all women, and also on behalf of children who are vulnerable to perverted power abusers who thrive on secrecy and control in similar cirsumstances to Weinstein et al, so I will also be buying her book ASAP and emailing the publishers to show my support.
I think there is a real sytematic attempt stop women getting properly and justifiably angry - if we do, we are shamed and/or ridiculed. I think this is in the main because many people fear that if women as a group actually get angry, we wont' "go mad" or become ineffective, we will just actually get really, realy fucking angry and take some real action to change some things. Or like Rose, speak the actual truth.
It is put across as for our own good - because anger is toxic or some shit, or to keep the moral highground - but I think we are being systematically defused to keep the satus quo. I mean, wars have been started (by men) over far less important things... The misogynistic backlash is really starting to kick in now and I worryingly I think there will be worse to come.
