Spilling Whitney's Tea Redux

All aboard the self-hype train:

Articles like Tatchell’s exhibit the exact concerns I attempted to address in my response to the email I received after posting my my Whitney eulogy. It’s so clear that Tatchell’s investment is not in honoring Houston or her relationship with Crawford. Rather, Tatchell sees Houston’s death as an opportunity to forward his own agenda. Houston is not a friend, but an example. And using people as examples is a horrendous thing to do, as it selectively chooses the portions we find (un)acceptable and does away with that we do not in order to preserve or undermine a myth we have locked in our minds.
