3. Lena Dunham goes on a self-described rage spiral on twitter.
4. I can’t find it but a friend of mine reports leftie-twitter activists have taken the bait of the right-wing troll job.

Given the arguments about “affirmative consent” we’ve had in the last few days/weeks, I can see why someone would publicize the quotations from the book.Report
The quote was particularly disturbing when the article had Lena’s age as 17 instead of 7. I believe much of the initial traction the story got came from that “typo.”Report
