And I ended up falling a little behind on the newsletter, which means you’re getting a jam-packed dispatch today. There are three stories I wanted to write about, and they all involve a backlash. There’s a backlash against the New York Times, a backlash against a pop star’s minidress, and a backlash against the wave of Hollywood influencers who joined OnlyFans back in 2020. And there’s a common thread here, which is how these media discourses actually deflect from the issues of sexual abuse and exploitation they claim to address. </p></td></tr><tr><td id="dismissing-a-crisis-of-statesanctio" class="dd" align="left" valign="top" style="color:#2A2A2A;font-weight:normal;padding:0px 15px;text-align:left;"><h1 style="color:#2A2A2A;font-weight:normal;mso-line-height-alt:175.0%;">Dismissing a crisis of state-sanctioned sexual abuse </h1></td></tr><tr><td align="center" valign="top" style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:15px;padding-right:15px;padding-top:20px; " class="dd"><table role="none" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="margin:0 auto 0 auto;"><tr><td align="center" valign="top" style="width:630px;"><img src="https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/8c182d51-c1bc-4e64-b428-8a139d46a0c7/GettyImages-2269149935.jpg?t=1778863639" alt="" height="auto" width="630" style="display:block;width:100%;" border="0"/></td></tr><tr><td align="center" valign="top" class="t" style="width:630px; padding: 4px 0px 4px 0px;"><p>Protests take place in Daraa, Syria, on April 3, 2026, near the Israeli border, against an Israeli law concerning the death penalty for Palestinian prisoners.
