Lena Dunham’s narcissism has hurt all rape victims
Red State ^ | December 10th, 2014 | streiff (Diary)

Posted on 12/11/2014 6:39:11 AM PST by Morgana

Yesterday we covered the ongoing soap opera of the immensely unattractive and monumentally untalented Lena Dunham’s bogus rape accusation. Long story short: she accused a college classmate of raping her, she clearly identified the alleged rapist which has caused him a lot of difficulties, now her publisher is paying the man’s legal expenses and altering future editions of the book to emphasize that the name is a pseudonym. Basically, this is the type of careless and narcissistic behavior Dunham has raised to an art form. Now she takes to the friendly pages of journalistic paragon BuzzFeed to continue to push her “fake but accurate” story.

The best way to start out a lie is with the lie. Here Dunham doesn’t fail us:

To be very clear, “Barry” is a pseudonym, not the name of the man who assaulted me, and any resemblance to a person with this name is an unfortunate and surreal coincidence. I am sorry about all he has experienced.

Speaking out was never about exposing the man who assaulted me. Rather, it was about exposing my shame, letting it dry out in the sun.

As successful as Lena is, she feels she must portray herself as a victim of a White Male Republican Rapist to enhance her liberal bona fides.

Duke Lacrossee, Tawana Brakey, UVM Scandal. The MSM would have us believe these are all “isolated incidents”.

I’m still trying to figure out how this ditz got a multi-million dollar career. She makes a independent movie for $1000 that got 3 stars out of 10 in IMDB which means it’s beyond awful. She then immediately got a TV series. Not a TV show, a TV SERIES. She then makes another independent movie called “Tiny Furniture” which I actually saw and it was like watching a brick wall for 90 minutes, just absolute torture by boredom. She then gets another TV SERIES and a book deal for $3.7 million. Isn’t that something, and liberals bash capitalism and here you got this ditz becomes a millionaire all because she made a movie with her freakin’ cellphone.

From the article... “She identified a prominent Republican Oberlin student with a radio show”. Speaks volumes to me.

Seems like she could start by writing a check to a charity that supports real rape victims. One with six zeroes in the amount. Wasn’t she given a 2 or 3 mil advance for this POS?

The fact is, she has profited mightily from lying and fabricating.

If you've had the misfortune to see an episode of Girls, where Dunham proudly exposes her dumpy body for the world to see, you would know the word shame isn't in her personal vocabulary.

Mizz Dunham proves one more time that liberalism is a mental disease.

..now her publisher is paying the man’s legal expenses...

Is this wise for Barry (the accused)? It seems to me that the publisher is liable as well.

Absolutely no one wants to sit on a jury in a rape case these days. He said, she said. He lied, she lied. She consented, then changed her mind. No one wants to be charged with trying to untangle those knots.

She thought it would be a cheap and easy way to slam Conservatives and everything they stand for.

Hopefully it will wind up destroying her career.

Isn’t this what the Senate condemned the other day, the use of torture.

Didn’t she say that anybody that delves into her rape claims is a misogynist?

I am happy to say I have never seen anything she has done or ever heard of her before. Sorry to hear of her now.
