All of the above and much, much more. Her constant attempts to ridicule - and I mean constant. Any time anyone says anything that might be construed as self-incriminating in some minor way or less intelligent she gurns and makes sure everyone knows she is highlighting the 'crime' or stupidity. She is utterly, utterly odious to me.

Funnily enough, the worst thing I've read about Katie H I read just yesterday. She got a card with a picture of a stick-man on the cover of it, wrote inside 'saw this and thought of you' and sent it to the anorexic daughter of one of her ex boyfriends.

I think that's one of the most detestable things I've ever read about anyone. It genuinely turned my stomach.


I fully agree.

So you're not trivialising things she's said, now you are just blaming others for their reaction, rather than blaming her for the actual things said..........carry on minimising what she does and soon she'll gain sainthood

and my initial post was an attempt at comedy using a hypothetical situation where I was the villian..... which obviously went way over your head...any resemblance to anything Katie H might have done or said was purely coincidental, but I see why you might have thought otherwise...she says and does so much nasty things it must be hard to keep track

I think her opinion of fat people just shows, yet again, that she doesn't even think things through properly. Plenty of sensible and well-informed posts on this thread, and others, have highlighted that.

I find it frightening how her fans can continue to agree with her ill-informed, sometimes irrational and often goady opinions, despite recieving plenty of evidence that they are mostly a load of rubbish. The fat thing is just one part of it, there's the baby names thing (despite having a daughter named India), the ginger thing (despite having a ginger child) and I'm sure there's more (I don't follow her closely enough outside the house to know). Not to mention a few incidents in the BB house!

How can people so blindly agree with KH, when she's constantly being shown up for her hypocrisy and lack of attention to detail? That's what I don't understand.

As for the fat thing, as per usual, KH (and those in agreement with her) oversimplify it to the point where it doesn't even stand up. In my experience, hardly anyone is fat only because they're greedy and lazy, just as hardly anyone is underweight only because they're overactive and lack an appetite. It comes down to so many things - genes, lifestyle, health and emotion/mental state (the biggest factor IMO).

For example, myself and my sibling both went through a traumatic time when we were younger. As a result of trying to cope, I developed anorexia. He gained a lot of weight and became obese. Can KH not see that, in our circumstance, they were two sides of the same coin? It wasn't as simple as my brother decided to sit around and stuff his face, just as it wasn't as simple as me deciding not to eat. Weight issues are so often symptomatic of a wider issue, be it mental, physical, or both. As plenty of us have repeated on here - LIFE ISN'T BLACK AND WHITE!

I honestly think that Katie lacks empathy and emotional intelligence. Those who blindy parrot her views make me question if they lack them too.

Oh dear oh dear....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law


Godwin's law (or Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies)[1][2] is an Internet adage asserting that "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1"[2][3]—​ that is, if an online discussion (regardless of topic or scope) goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare someone or something to Hitler or Nazism.

Promulgated by American attorney and author Mike Godwin in 1990,[2] Godwin's Law originally referred, specifically, to Usenet newsgroup discussions.[4] It is now applied to any threaded online discussion, such as Internet forums, chat rooms and blog comment threads, as well as to speeches, articles and other rhetoric.[5][6]

In 2012, "Godwin's Law" became an entry in the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.[7]

Seriously? Especially considering what I've just said in my post above, that has turned my stomach too.

She doesn't just lack empathy, I was wrong. She is all-out vindictive. I know DS hates the word vile, but that kind of behaviour is bloody deserving of it!

Only if Nadia conforms and does what Katie wants. I think Nadia is principled not holding a grudge.

Read about
Perez.

Its the daily mail so make of it what you will, but heres the link anyway:

And another:

http://www.wattpad.com/20953166-a-no...-katie-hopkins

So when skinny people can't stand her what is this called???

Agreed - there is some background behind her appalling behavior. She doesn't have any empathy and I agree with you that the fake concern for Alexander was just to "perform" to the house and use another scenario to bully Perez again. Yes I said the word bully because that's what it is (whether Perez goads her or not). She slagged Alex off at the beginning and suddenly becomes his knight in shining armour when it suits her to get one up on Perez (or try to). Her reaction to Keith crying over Alicia leaving was strange to put it mildly. She couldn't understand the crying at all. When she gets a compliment she can't handle it because I don't think she can understand the crying reaction. She's probably been brought up not to cry or show emotion, or even care about anyone.

Either that or she's a loving mother and wife and the whole nastiness and sociopathic behavior is completely fake, and she's playing up to her thousands of fans.

I think she is a nasty piece of work. She's fixated on Perez and targeted him from the beginning. She's tried desperately to isolate him from the other HM's and can't get it that Nadia gets on well with Perez (as he does with her and he's not using her). The more Perez doesn't react to her, the more she screams and shouts at him (aided by the screaming banshee that is Cami). I have no idea why she hates him so much - perhaps it's because of his columns etc., but blimey, some of the hate she's spouted out of her huge gob is a lot worse. Racist, insulting, hurtful - I won't go on.

She's the biggest hypocrite of all. Can't stand her.

Yeah that wasn't a very nice thing to do admittedly, although I bet the daughter wasn't anywhere close to actually being anorexic.
Katie H does look strangely hot in the pictures in that link tho.

There are probably load of skinny people who don't like her.
A lot of people dislike people who have opinions different to their own, some people deal with it better than others.

You must be baiting, otherwise that is a hell of an ignorant thing to say.

Again, particularly because of what I disclosed in my post above, I genuinely hope no one in your life has ever suffered from, or will suffer from, an eating disorder.

That is the tip of the iceberg. This is an excellent summary of why she is an unacceptable human being.
Sitting comfortably...Centuries ago when the rich were rich and the uneducated poor were scum, social mobility was impossible, along came the voice of the ruling class.

E
And there's more, much more.

What does that have to do with this thread?

I've read through ................I'm a bit lost for words TBH - wouldn't know where to begin - and I'm not even fat or ginger

No - people do not dislike Hopkins JUST because of her dislike of fat people. She manages to offend so many different kinds of people....

http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrit...ements-3787639

The poster was speculating not asserting, unlike KH who appears to believe she and only she is right about everything. I don't believe she's pretending. I think she really is that silly. I can easily deny she's been a great housemate, and I neither love her nor loathe her. She is predictable, inflexible and has stifled others in the house. She bores me. It's like being incarcerated with a right-wing bigot who can behave only in one way. Very dull.

I decided to do a search on Hopkins to find out the awful things she has supposed to have said. Have to say there aren't many. Just the usual ginger, Scottish and fat ones. I think Hopkins is a bit of a myth if I'm honest. Perpetuated by the faux outrage brigade.

Do these people that are continuously offended by everything not realise that they are making Hopkins huge amounts of money by being offended?

Somebody earlier on in this thread accused her of being elitist and that she believes rich and privelaged people shouldn't have to pay taxes etc. Well that doesn't really fit with her saying Price should have to pay for her own care!

I reckon if I got into a quiet room with Hopkins and had a few debates with her I think she'd be thoroughly sensible and her views wouldn't be quite so inflamed.

Don't some of you people realise that she sits back every night counting her money whilst you get yourselves all hot and bothered about her tweets?!

I dislike her as she is the lowest kind of attention seeker.

She's found a way to make a living by being obnoxious and doesn't even believe half the stuff she spouts, but knows the effect is greater than the cause so spouts it anyway.

And all she's done in the house is judge and belittle.

Even when she's bitten her tongue she pulls these stupid faces to let the public know that she's talking to someone beneath her.

A fame hungry wannabee that decries fame hungry wannabees... go figure.

Godwin's Law is a load of oul' balderdash. You could equally argue that as an online discussion goes on, sooner or later someone will compare something or someone to Yazz and the Purple Population; or onions and parsnips. It's a logical nonsense.

Godwin's second law, by the way, is that if you make a valid comparison with Hitler or the Nazis someone will arrive in 4.5 posts to quote Godwin's Law.....................

You'd be very surprised but I don't feel the need to bring that up to justify my comments.
I just don't think Katie H would have done that to someone deeply into anorexia.

I might be wrong tho.

I agree. That was a hellishly ignorant comment and typical of the sort of nonsense that KH supporters are forced to come out with in the light of some of her appalling behaviour. A comment like that deserves no respect.

The bit in bold is kind of the point, no? She routinely contradicts herself. Her child is named 'India' yet she won't let her children play with children who have ridiculous names; her children are ginger yet she feels no-one could love a ginger child; she has been quoted directly as saying that the wealthy should avoid tax and has been seen directly saying that Katie P should pay for Harvey's care.

She's about as consistent as diarrhea, to add to her offensiveness.

And your evidence is? Nothing more than an attempt to excuse her I should think. Poor argument.

you do realise it is possible for people to be actually offended, right? Just because you aren't, doesn't mean it's "faux".

As for the outrage, I wouldn't say there's that much outrage on this thread, more like a lot of very sensible arguments as to why a lot of stuff KH spouts is untrue, and that the OP's opinion as to why some dislike KH is misguided.

I'm actually almost glad Katie says these stupid things, because it opens up a wider argument amongst communities like this, where informed people can point out exactly why the stuff she is saying is rubbish or hypocritical.
