Bullard uses donation to silence his critics. Rape Crisis rejects it.

Today, David Bullard, who is now infamous for targeting and bullying a rape survivor, tried to whitewash himself with a donation to Rape Crisis.

After announcing the donation on twitter, he immediately started using it to try silence anyone who spoke out against his bullying and harassment.

Rape Crisis, who at first accepted the donation, later decided to reject it

The culture and attitude he promotes causes more damage than the R3000 he was going to donate.

He spreads exactly the myths Rape Crisis is trying to fight against every day.

Rape Crisis have shown they will not sell permission to bully and harass rape survivors, spread rape myths and contribute to rape culture to the highest bidder.

They refuse to be a pawn in Bullard's game.

We would like to make sure they don't suffer for this admirable decision. It must have been a hard one to make.

Please, if you can, make a donation to Rape Crisis today
