It’s a constant of the Brit establishment. It was strongly believed that “Jack the Ripper “ was an immigrant because “no civilised Englishman could do that…”

It relates to Mythoconsciousness a brathair. It’s the idea that a folk memory is preserving an historic truth. Similar, in that respect, to the Mold Cape.

Not exactly. It’s a bit more nuanced than that …. She tried to get Faber to donate her royalties to Palestinian Action, which would have been illegal. So she dropped them as her publisher. She could have donated the royalties herself but…. She obviously doesn’t fancy being arrested.

Ok - a bit of #honesty . I posted in reference to #SallyRooney and #censorship earlier,but here’s the reality. She asked her #publisher , Faber, to donate royalties to #PalestineAction. They couldn’t do that for #legal reasons, so she dropped them. But she could have made the #donation herself..!

Megyn Kelly used her SiriusXM show to mock the body of a woman who says she was drugged and raped by 7 Cornell frat bros. Kelly said she probably "enjoyed" it. That's rape culture, and SiriusXM and advertisers are promoting it. Tell them to drop Kelly now! share.weareultraviolet.org/s/JXV0PPFi
