  • Yep, her abusive ex-husband, whom she tried to leave, but was told to reconcile with if she wanted to make the Olympics. He was trying to promote his bodyguard business, so he had someone attack Kerrigan. As to her involvement, it’s he-said-she-said. She could have come up with the idea, or only learned of it after the fact. I’m inclined to believe her over her abuser, but it really is guesswork.

    If anyone is interested in the story, Sarah Marshall’s Remote Control is mandatory reading. She also talks about it on the You’re Wrong About podcast.











  • Remember kids, when brown people do something bad, it’s terrorism. When white people starve an entire population after a failed occupation, that’s just because we are very concerned about misogyny. Now, starving an entire country en masse has (to my knowledge) never caused a government to be overthrown, and in this case has no chance of improving the treatment of women in the country. Nor have women in Afghanistan ever asked for sanctions, nor do they support them now that they are in place. But don’t let that fool you in to thinking we’re doing it for any reason other than to help women in Afghanistan.

    Before you respond, please take a look at my post and notice I said _nothing positive about the Taliban _. This is about the disingenuous use of women’s rights to excuse and even celebrate mass starvation.
