Conflict Is Not Abuse: Overstating Harm, Community Responsibility, and the Duty of Repair by Sarah Schulman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 19%.
DNF'd @19%

flipped through the ebook after abandoning the audio. the audio is horribly mixed so I don't recommend listening if you can help it, but my main issues are with the demonization of tech, fatphobia, glossing over important info in regards to the HIV/AIDS crisis when it was initially brought up, & overall tone of the writing. there seems to be some decent info here overall, and I appreciate Schulman mentioning this isn't meant to be the end all be all of the topics but an invite to discussions. but absolutely the fuck not with this. I'm out. thanks, but no thanks.

other reviews mention issues with victim blaming & such so im glad I'm giving up. at least I can say I tried and I did learn a couple things so that's why 2 stars.
