Correct. But she also did other things that pissed people off. Like her tantrum about OBJ not wanting to fuck her at a banquet lol

Tbh I'm not sure why she gets any attention at all. She's not particularly good at anything really.

I don't doubt she's unlikable. But thinking someone should be cancelled because you don't like them is entitled as hell.

People went nuts over a basketball player quoting song lyrics with the n word as a 15 year old, but Dunham faced no consequences for molesting her sister as a teen. Also, before someone acts like she was a little kid for all this, of course I'm not talking about the stuff when she was a little kid. You can't blame her for that, but she did shit when she was well into her teens as well.

You guys know Steven Sigal is still out here making movies even though he's a huge sexual predator right? You guys just notice more when it's women because it let's you be on the victim side. Guys needed to be caught more because they were doing more. You're comparing her to guys who raped or molested 10s of women.

I dont cancel anyone. People dont have to like someone. I dont like her because she comes across as an out of touch spoiled brat and Girls was full of annoying white privileged brats running around NYC. Other people find her annoying as well. If someone likes her I wont hate them for it

He sits down for most of them. So yes, they are incredible.

The simple fact is that nobody cares about Lena Dunham. That's not a value judgment of her; its more like some inexplicable phenomenon.

I think Trader Joe's has proven that all you need to do is tell the stupid young adult who complains to fuck off and that will be the end of that. Everyone just needs to start telling the outraged cancel culture young adults to fuck off and they will just go away.

Or is it something else?

She was a massive support of the #MeToo movement and #BelieveWomen.

Then a black woman (Aurora Perrineau, Harold's daughter) accused Lena's white friend and coworker of rape.

Lena literally called her a liar.

Then much later came out and "apologized" but the story died quickly. Hardly anyone talked about it really.

I mean that, the OBJ incident, the nearly total lack of any black characters in her show and her reasoning behind that? She's not called on that nearly enough tbh.

I'd change that to privileged, white, liberal women, but otherwise, I agree.

That's a bad one too. Cancel culture is pretty selective about who it targets.

It wasn't an accusation, she stated she did.

She didn't even just state it did she? I thought she published it in her autobiography. Which is even worse how numerous people read that and were like "Yeah that's fine"

i dont understand why people think failing to cancel people means cancel culture doesnt exist. cancel culture can exist and it can also be ineffective, those things arent really mutually exclusive.
