Classic government position: if it's your fault then its your responsibility, if it's our fault then its your responsibility. Don't like it? The police are on our side 🤌

if you loved someone's writing and you now find out that their sexual ethics are awful to you... I just want to say that it says nothing about you that you loved their work and nothing about you that you learned from the work. if the work 'changed your life', consider that you did that yourself.

😢 been googling my favourite creators to try and find any hint of inappropriate conduct. A few cherished ones seem to be genuine so far 🙏

“Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority: still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority.” -Lord Acton, 1887

So where are we then? I've spent much of today googling my favourite male creators to see if there have been any claims of inappropriate sexual conduct associated with them... That's where we are. DO BETTER, MEN 🤬

When someone talks about whether you can separate someone from their work, I know the someone they’re talking about is a white man. Marginalized creators (including young women who are that man’s victims) are never allowed to have their work considered apart from their marginalization.

One of my fave YT channels is RetroReport. It does what practically no one else does: goes back and reviews media hot topics, particularly exaggerations and untruths.
Every Gen-Xer alive is probably familiar with the “crack baby,” and the dire predictions of their futures.

Can we talk about the fact that there are numerous famous male creators who go through their career without allegations of abuse? It IS possible... you just have to not fucking abuse people. If you leave a string of abuse allegations in your wake there really is only one likely cause

People suggesting that multiple women coming forward makes it more believable... Sure it makes it more damning, there's a greater human toll to account for... But can you imagine being one victim coming forward on your own!? Surely that demands MORE support? Sorry, I'm ranting now. I just hate abuse

Huge Neil Gaiman fan until today. Shelves full of his work. I'm just not surprised though. Seems more often than not that status and power corrupts - or reveals corruption in - men. We have to support the women here for a number of reasons not least of which is the insane power imbalance...

My favourite perspective in these matters is to remember that we are all of us descended from survivors of the worst that humanity has dealt with: plagues, famines, wars, the lot.

If we dehumanise evildoers such as Nazis then it gets in the way of us reflecting on what causes humans to commit such atrocities. The Nazis were/are humans and we need to face this if we're ever to stand a chance of defeating it.
