The similarities between Jian Ghomeshi & Neil Gaiman are astounding.
But here's the lesson : Ghomeshi was acquitted by the legal system but unequivocally cancelled by Canadians.
We, as consumers of art & media, took all his power away.
We can do the same to Gaiman.

continuing to reference Jian Ghomeshi is an act of war onto itself, lund
I gave the prospect of invading Canada a lot of strenuous sober thought, and I came to the conclusion that it's terrifying, stupid and insane.
Maple Beef
Talk of annexing Canada is the dumbest sideshow in Trump’s circus — and a recipe for the most embarrassing quagmire in American history.

Seeing people I know post Jian Ghomeshi videos about Iran in the wake of what happened today. I’m realizing now a lot of people outside of Canada don’t know his backstory. I would encourage folks to look him up before posting his content, please

We cancelled Ghomeshi. That man was *the* Canadian media darling. He was not convicted on any of the charges he faced. But we all collectively sent his ass packing.
We've cancelled abusers before and we can do it again. So, why don't we?

Especially when during the Ghomeshi trial, the fact that the victims spoke to each other before the trial was considered collusion! Meanwhile, men on the same hockey team who shared the same night texting this is somehow a non-issue.
How a judge could see evidence of that text “ We’ve got to get our stories straight” and not conclude nefariousness, I can’t even! 🤦♂️🤨

Also worth noting that Amanda Palmer was a staunch Ghomeshi defender.

Reading the revelations about Neil Gaiman is giving me major Jian Ghomeshi flashbacks.
From the "I'm not abusive, I'm just kinky" rationales to the faux-feminist persona to the victim complex that holding him accountable is terrible for his mental health.
It's a playbook Canadians recognize.
