> Kate Winslet’s 180 on Allen in the space of four months is pretty dispiriting. To **Andy, Acsenray,** et al: do you think she truly had that dramatic a change of heart? Or did she feel the intense pressure from “cancel culture” that led her to conclude she was going to tank her career if she didn’t “get right” on this question? I think it’s pretty obvious it’s the latter, that she felt she had to choose between being lynched by the online mob or picking up a torch and pitchfork and joining in with it. It’s sad that she wasn’t a little more courageous, but also somewhat understandable. I can’t say with 100% confidence that I wouldn’t do the same in her position, but the whole thing is just sickening.

Why am I not shocked that **SlackerInc** doesn’t believe what a woman says, and assumes her change of heart must be for some other reason.
