I feel bad for this lady. She was calm and talking in public with two other people and she gets meme'd like she was being unreasonable. She wasn't, but even if she was she wouldn't deserve it.
I often think about this when I see people used in meme templates like this. Do they know?
Yes they know
She was just mentioning US statistics of women victims of rape, like you said she wasn't doing anything to deserve ridicule and yet became the face of it
What was the context? This is the first time I've ever seen this person.
Here it is: https://youtu.be/byOlBCpNKeM
Rewatching it, I used the word "calm" and I still think that but she was "yelling" but not due to the subject matter. It was more due to the number of people outside and the ambient sound.
Like, she's just on the side and talking to the guy to me. Not unreasonably.
