That's quite the "empowered young woman" new last name she chose for herself. Fierceton. Cringe.

I swear... these women just think their hair and tits gives them the world. Not anymore.

She's still going to succeed which really vexes me

The story is more complicated than this headline suggests.

After reading a more detailed article (https://www.chronicle.com/article/the-dredging; you have to sign up for a free account to read it), I believe her allegations that her mother abused her, even if there were no outside witnesses to the key incident. Something happened at her house when she was 17, that put her in the hospital for three weeks and then sent her to foster care afterwards. No one is disputing that set of facts. And her hundred-page diary makes it clear that things were already very strained between them.

As for labelling herself as a "first-generation" college student on her master's application: that's a stretch at best, and frankly I think she shouldn't have done it. But you can at least make some kind of argument for it:

If “first generation” means the first in one’s family to attend college — the widely used, common-sense meaning — Fierceton’s answer would be plainly false. But at Penn, it’s not that straightforward. The term is defined in multiple ways on the university’s website, encompassing a much broader array of students. The university’s first-generation, low-income student organization has included as first-generation those who are the first in their families to “pursue higher education at an elite institution.” What “elite” means is up for debate, but Fierceton’s parents were not Ivy League graduates. The current website for Penn First Plus, the university’s “hub for efforts to make the campus more inclusive,” says that students qualify as first-generation if they “have a strained or limited relationship with the person(s) in your family who hold(s) a bachelors degree.” Fierceton’s relationship with her parents was more than strained at the time she applied to college, and she considered herself a family of one.

Is that a picture of her with AOC?! How fitting. Haha! They are more like "Rhodes Manipulative Drama Queens" to the third degree. I promise they both need a psychiatrist and therapist...just one wouldn't do they need both. One for the meds and the other for cognitive behavioral therapy.

If she lied and thought she would get away with it not very…smart

You are not middle class if you have a radiologist as a parent. The average salary of a radiologist is 400k.
