It’s interesting that you ask that because that was the problem with her doing it in the first place- most people weren’t yet aware of the depth of pedophilia scandals the Catholic church was embroiled in, so they just thought she was anti-Catholic. We should have known what she meant when she said, “fight the real enemy,” but the news was just not that prominent, not in the U.S. anyway.
Please don’t get me wrong, though. She absolutely did not deserve to have her life and career totally fucked because people didn’t understand her message.
