17. The ignorance and lack of self-awareness in these people is remarkable.

"She told me that she did not share the racist views espoused by some on the far right. (In 2013, she tweeted, “what’s up, my niggas?” Powell defended the use of the N-word, saying, “My favorite book is ‘Gone with the Wind,’ and it uses that term freely.”)"

One of these things is not like the other. It's 1) fiction, and 2) set in the 1860s.

"Powell could be heard saying, “The masks are total bullcrap. You guys just need to get out there and live. Get arrested—it’s fine.”"

Happy to hear you say that. Enjoy prison.

It's in the article. TwilightZone Feb 2021 #22

That explanation doesn't ring accurate to me. She describes aspects of a room she can't see (Nt) FreepFryer Feb 2021 #24

She's clearly lying about several things in the interview. TwilightZone Feb 2021 #27

Indeed. We may find out, Farrow is pretty solid, but not perfect. FreepFryer Feb 2021 #29
