I am going to put the same warning on this post as I did on the one in literature:

For anyone about to read the article, it is A LOT. Like, I don't have any particular triggers and I had a hard time reading it.

The CW itself almost needs a CW, so I spoilered it here:

spoilerCW: SA, Physical abuse, non consenting bdsm, child abuse, humiliation, corrective SA

If you don't want to read it, the TL;DR is that Gaiman is a monster

Thank you, I'm sorry I should have considered cw. You mind if I add yours to the title?

Oof, that was a very brutal topic to read about, but very important. What monsters are those people that portray themselves as feminists and then go on and do such things. Gaiman is obviously the worst here, but Palmer seems to be also very problematic. And it goes to show that only because you were victim to abuse or are marginalized that it does not prevent you in any way to do the same thing to other people :(
