People comparing this to the famous hot coffee lawsuit against McDonald's. That lawsuit was justified. McDonald's was serving near-boiling coffee and knew it was unsafe. The woman who sued was nearly killed by her burns. This moron, on the other hand, put glue in her own hair.
The woman in the McDonald's lawsuit just wanted them to pay her ER bills. They refused and so she sued and won. Then McDonald's ran a disinformation campaign for years to skew public perception of the case. They were totally in the wrong every step of the way.
Everyone knows coffee is hot, obviously. But no sane person wants their coffee so hot that it could permanently disfigure or potentially kill them. That's how hot the McDonald's coffee was. And they kept it that way after hundreds of injuries.
There's a reason she was awarded millions by a jury. It's extremely extremely hard for an average person to win that kind of judgment against a billion dollar company. This is actually a case of the little guy winning, but the public sided with the big guy. Kind of incredible.

We are told that the DC riot killed five people. Sometimes seven deaths are linked to the riot. But here’s the truth, as far as we’ve been officially told:
Of seven deaths, two were officers who committed suicide after the riot. We have never been given any evidence or any reason to believe that their suicides had anything to do with the riot. This is simply an assumption that many have made.
Of the five who died in or shortly after the riot, one was a man with a pre existing condition who suffered a heart attack. Another suffered a stroke at some point that day and died in a hospital.

It's strange how we haven't heard more about the circumstances surrounding Officer Sicknick's tragic death. The story we hear repeated on social media is that he was "beat to death" by rioters. But nobody has been charged with that crime, and no evidence has been presented for it
"Authorities have reviewed video and photographs that show Sicknick engaging with rioters amid the siege but have yet to identify a moment in which he suffered his fatal injuries, law enforcement officials familiar with the matter said."

"According to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma, so investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true."

This is a horrifying article. Her kid is asymptomatic and will probably be fine like almost every other child whose gotten it. Yet she admits she's scared him senseless over it and she admits she's done it mainly because she's scared he'll get her sick.

"I've Traumatized My Child On Purpose Because I'm Selfish And Scared."

My God. Your poor child.
If my kids get it, I'm not going to quarantine them away from the family. I'd much rather get COVID myself than treat my own children like lepers.

I'm sorry but I don't want to hear @AOC's tearful descriptions of her trauma from the Capitol Hill riots when this woman couldn't possibly give less of a shit about the regular Americans who were brutally victimized by BLM rioting in the summer
She romanticized rioting when it didn't happen to her. Then the shoe is on the other foot and she wants us to cry alongside her, pitying her, while pretending that she didn't directly participate in the normalization of exactly this kind of violence. No. Sorry. No way.
Did AOC ever express a word of condemnation towards the BLM rioters who punched this innocent woman and beat her repeatedly with a wooden board? No, no she didn’t. She didn’t care. Still doesn’t.

Anyone still pretending that cancel culture isn't real might want to consider this case. A baby sleep training expert has been boycotted and attacked ruthlessly after someone dug through FEC records and found out she donated to Trump. They even posted her address online.
It's not like people are responding to political statements she made. She's a non-political person, in a non-political field, who got doxxed because of some campaign donations she made. This is cancel culture. This is what we mean when we refer to it.
Oh and this headline from @TheCut is disgraceful. "Funneling the profits" tries to make it sound somehow sinister that she was giving a few dollars of her own personal money to a PAC. And we have no way of knowing if it came from her business's profits (not that it matters).
