WHO AM I?
Hi 👋 I’m Kathrin (she/her), I’m 27, an Anthropologist and Political Scientist. With my videos, I hope to inspire us to do both the internal and external work. Not only challenge 0ppressive broader external structures, but to also root out our that piece of the 0ppresser which is planted deep within each of us. Welding our outward political social rev0luti0ns, with this deep inner reflection and evolution of our consciousness.
About this video:
With the Jeffrey Epstein case one of the most controversial scandals in recent years, and now the new list that show Prince Andrew, Steven Hawking, Bill Clinton and Donald Trump are also implicated - I’ve seen a resurgence of debates around whether the abuse was bad enough/serious enough, qualifies for mention. People ranking the experiences and minimising and trivialising them. I see this constantly, things that clearly amounted to s*xual violence are minimised by terms like ‘’just bad s*x’’ misunderstanding, ‘grey area’’. People say This doesn’t really count, but …” or: “I wasn’t r@ped, but …” then proceed to tell me things that absolutely were rape. No matter where I go, or how horrendous the experience, people never seemed to think it was that bad.
‘abuse ranking’ is r@pe apologia. It normalises and trivialises the harm and invalidates victims. It makes us believe some acts are tolerable, and, further, that if a survivor of the "not as bad" sort of violence, they’re making a mountain out of a molehill. ‘’not that bad’’ is a chore pillar of r@pe culture.
