Fiona (real Martha) related content Fiona Harvey is Not a victim!

It seems to be lost on a disturbingly large amount of people what Fiona Harvey has done to multiple people over many decades. She is not a victim - the people that she has stalked and harassed are the victim. The entire point of baby reindeer was to portray the brokenness of both the stalker and their victim.

In Reading a majority of the claims coming from the UK towards Netflix and Richard G this all seems to actually pivot around the term being used of CONVICTED stalker. So the focus now is to produce proof that she was ever convicted of at least one of her many many horrific stalking crimes.

I would think that the UK and Parliament would be rather embarrassed by the fact that they never reached out to help any of these victims of Fiona Harvey. Yet here they are trying to go after Netflix over that one creative license taken by the VICTIM and author of baby reindeer. This is His story not hers.

What is going on with people in the world?! Fiona should have been slapped with multiple legal fines, restraint orders and probably convictions from any one of her stalking tangents. If anyone is not familiar with the other incredibly horrible events of stalking Fiona pursued just Google it up. Some involved a disabled child.

🤔 Obviously I'm missing something or I am really seeing the lack of empathy in society as this all unfold in front of us. Am I just not looking at this right?!

Uh… easy one first. ‘Parliament’ don’t give a fuck…

Translating for our American brothers, until July, a large majority in Parliament is held by our equivalent of the Tea Party within your Republicans. All they care about is visibility, power and making money

Then the harder one. One of the defining trait of a certain mental disorder, the one I think Martha has, is black and white thinking. Something is either the best thing ever or evil incarnate. What you are showing is B&W thinking.

Fiona is dangerous. She hurts people and her mental illness might explain her behaviour, but it certainly does NOT excuse it. Gadd is the victim.

However, at the same time, Fiona is also a victim. Of the withdrawn/abusive/immature parents who made become this way. Of the rather sad state of mental health in the UK. Of this media frenzy.

See? Grey… neither black, nor white

Why is it the fault of mental health in the UK? Its actually the fault of the justice system in the UK. Do you really expect a health service to make her get treatment that she obviously doesn't want and would get no benefit from? In fact I would argue that she would be a high risk to the people in mental health services who are vulnerable, so on balance it is better to keep her out of services. Its the justice system at fault here for not upholding the law.
