Damn that’s awesome. She was absolutely dripping with loathing for that guy. Incredible.

He’s done a lot to deserve her loathing, starting from a year ago when she was named Australian of the Year 2021, and after she gave her speech where she described what a paedophile had done to her, how the power structures had supported him over her, and how it hadn’t stopped her advocating for people who’ve been sexually abused, and when she stepped off the podium, that man leaned over and said “I bet you feel better now that that’s out of the way”.

That’s the guy who stepped in front of a press conference about the sexual abuse and sexual harrassment going on inside the parliament building, and said that he didn’t understand how bad it was, but now he did, because he asked his wife, and she told him to think about his daughters.

That’s the guy who, when one of those who was sexually harrassed in the building, went and told people about it so that something would be done, he had the Prime Minister’s Office go and dig up dirt on her.

That’s the guy who, when there was a women’s march on parliament, refused flat blank to come out of his office and talk to them.

Grace Tame, on the other hand, did this over the last year:

Scott Morrison has well and truly earned her contempt.

It’s just more of the same warmed over BS of men who think that women should be more harshly criticized in pop/rock music then men.

So I guess McCartney/Lennon were schlock as well? Oh, wait, men are allowed to collaborate, I guess? Yeah, piss off.

Gorillaz was, by definition, a collaboration. It’s only OK when men do it. :face_vomiting:

Book vented her anger in the phone interview with the AP Monday night as she described the international trade and sale of images stolen from people without their knowledge. She cursed loudly at times, and sometimes choked back tears. She called it a sick, perverted subculture that pays more for images of celebrities and elected officials, but which also victimizes women who aren’t well known.

This is less about sex than about controlling women, “putting them in their place,” especially those who are well known or powerful. Especially those who are powerful. Small men are very threatened by powerful women.

And seriously, the “nude images” were of a lumpectomy scar. Seriously, no way can this be filed under “boys will be boys.” This is just gross.
