The show is not about the murder.
And the "circumstances following the murder" were an extremely fantastical, misogynistic prosection that victimized a woman, and a multicontitental, misogynistic media campaign (largely all built on -gasp- a woman having premarital sex and owning a vibrator , thus rendering her a satanic she-devil).
The vast majority of wrongful prosecutions will, naturally, follow a crime. One's that result in years behind bars and an international media furore will, naturally, arise from serious crimes.
The scale and extent of the misogyny that Knox suffered should never be forgotten - particularly due to the role of the international (and particularly, the British press).
Because the jury was not sequestered, they were able to consume all of the misogynistic reporting - and the prosecution further leveraged this by leaking unverified or outright false claims to the media, meticulously timed to build a public narrative of Knox as a manipulative, hyper-sexualized sociopath.
One of the often overlooked police strategies I think we would do well to remember - the police falsely told Knox that she had HIV (causing severe distress) in order to trick her into making a list of all of her past sexual partners (7, in total) which was then leaked to the media so that they could readily depict her as a sex-crazed man-eater. Something the British press gleefully participated in.
What happened to her is jaw-dropping, and genuinely reminiscent of 16th century witch trial, but on a scale that was larger by orders of magnitude.
As to comedy as the vehicle - well, for one its apparently less a comedy show and more a combination of her life story and a treatise against the patriarchy and its dangers, coupled with some gallows humor at her own expense (including her apparent "unlikeability").
As posted earlier in the thread, the show was particularly celebrated by Denise Huskins - a survivor of kidnapping, rape, false police allegations and widespread media misogyny. To repeat a passage:
"I just saw that there is a petition to cancel her set at the festival, and it deeply disturbs me that people continue to vilify someone who has overcome so much and who has been proven innocent over and over again.
Her show is a beautiful representation of comedy meeting tragedy; displaying a philosophical and intellectual real-life description of how trauma follows us despite our determination to create a purpose and meaning with our lives beyond it."
Bearing in mind that nobody who has actually seen the show seems to share anything close to your opinion - that it "belittles the issue of violence against girls and women" - do you have any regret in making this allegation against this particular survivor?
Can you explain in what particular, harmful ways you feel that the show "mocks the circumstances around the murder of Meredith Kercher"? Based on the actual content of the show rather that your assumptions, please.
In your professional role, do you coach victims of the patriarchy on the "proper and permissable" ways in which they may process their trauma, and try to ensure they don't have access to vehicles for doing so that you deem to be ill-advised?
And on what basis have you determined her performance is "probably not doing much for Knox's own emotional health either" - particularly as someone with no apparent familiarity with the actual contents of the show and presumably does not know Knox?
Do you find there to be anything ironic about, absent relevant fact (i.e. the content of the show) rushing to judgment to condem Amanda Knox of all people?
