Another mewling article from Monica Lewinsky. Ugh. This woman has become a spokesperson for what reason again.
Monica Lewinsky: Emerging from “the House of Gaslight” in the Age of #MeToo
So the gist of the article is that she talks about how she met Ken Starr in person (that was plot convenient) and gave him an opportunity to apologize, which he didn't.
Then she drops this little gem.
To be blunt, I was diagnosed several years ago with post-traumatic stress disorder, mainly from the ordeal of having been publicly outed and ostracized back then. My trauma expedition has been long, arduous, painful, and expensive. And it’s not over. (I like to joke that my tombstone will read, MUTATIS MUTANDIS—“With Changes Being Made.”)
Well, there goes any sympathy I had for the woman. No, PTSD is what you get when you are a battlefield and people are trying to kill you. It's not because someone said bad stuff about you on TV, you self-absorbed twit!!!
Ms. Lewinsky, 99% of the bad stuff that happened to you was because of your own making. The 1% that wasn't was just as much the Clintons (who called you a stalker and lied about you) as it was Mr. Starr.
Did Starr abuse his powers? Absolutely. SO has every other Special Counsel.
