[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DAWN DORLAND WINS THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION![/quote]

I guess I’m in the minority and don’t agree that this was in any way plagiarism nor that DD comes out looking like anything other than the Karen she was being mocked for being. [/quote]

She wasn’t a Karen.

To be a good person or a decent artist requires more than having an identity in a purportedly oppressed group of people. [/quote]

I’m on your side, but let’s not veer into (potentially) racist rhetoric. There can be critiques made about whether or not Sonya wielded narratives around race in good faith, but let’s not downplay the fact that people of color, including Asians, have certain disadvantages in this society.[/quote]

It isn’t racist rhetoric. Without the “Karen” framework, people attacking Dorland have nothing. Allison Murphy (white) advised Sonya Larson (mixed) Ro weaponize Grub Street’s Writers of Color group to “draaaag” Dorland on exactly the basis you think you’re decrying! That’s phucked, it’s incredibly dishonest, and NONE OF THIS ACTUAL ISSUE has to do with the actual prejudice and racist treatment of Asians in the US.[/quote]

I think the PP you're replying to was specifically talking about the use of "[i]purportedly [/i]oppressed" to reference Asian Americans.[/quote]

Got it - I used purportedly in the wrong manner. It seems entirely inapplicable to Larson’s experience at Grub and with Dorland. [/quote]
