(4,775 posts)Don't have a link to it, so mostly what I remember is my impression of it.
IIRC it was about her being a whore to corporate interests (a fairly common use of the whore term) and it was of course blown up for being misognyist.
It is difficult to discern anyone's intent when they say such things, and I view it as an unfortunate choice of words that was intended to provoke but not to be misogynist. I remember thinking that the poster's point was valid and could have been made just as well with a different word.
I can't remember if the post was hiddedn or if the poster was banned. It's not worth much energy, really, the post was made so don't refute its existence, and tread carefully around anything that could be spun as misogynist, correct intentions are not enough if something can be credibly (and how credibly depends on what jury you get) spun another way.
