I’ve seen people talk about actors and artists that had a terrible time.

My own would be Anne Rice. She wrote Interview with the Vampire after her young daughter died of Leukemia. Then her husband suddenly died of a brain hemorrhage. I suspect her Christian, anti-fanfic phase was a result of mental illness and manipulation from the publishers, although I don’t think she ever apologized.

    It’s worth a read if you want to learn about a mostly forgotten holocaust of WW2 in China

    You can’t just call every wild evil massacre “a Holocaust”, that’s insanely stupid and devalues what makes the Holocaust special even among genocides

      It’s literally the name of the book. Also, holocaust is “the destruction or slaughter on a mass scale”. Using the same term doesn’t minimize other historical events
