“[Australian] feminist writer Clementine Ford, who often bears the brunt of vitriol on social media, was called a “slut” by Michael Nolan on Facebook.
The original comment was posted by Nolan on Nov. 25, in response to a post where Ford called out another man for making degrading comments.”
Ford was discussing the frequent abuse women face from men and why this should stop. This was the post Mr. Nolan decided to leave his awful remark on.
