From our archive: Katie Hopkins: ‘I definitely identify with that murderer thing, where you click off’

Most people will do anything to avoid being hated, but Katie Hopkins seems to run frantically towards hatred. Take the 18 days of her life beginning on 29 March. She started with a series of tweets mocking depression: “UK has seen a 500% growth in anti-depressants since 1991. Like being bullied, being depressed is a fashionable thing to be… The ultimate passport to self-obsession.” A week later, she moved on to dementia: “1 in 4 hospital beds are taken up by someone with dementia.

Ha ha wtf. The guardian interviewing Katie Hopkins. How much did you pay for that?

promoted this racist then fawn trying make her appear ‘one of us’. Ooo family blah blah, illness. She is just greed and evil.

This is the most entertaining set of comments I've read in a while. The terror at the intrusion of another view into this Guardian media bubble is wonderful. Thank you.

The word you're looking for is psychopath

'All violence is an attempt to replace shame with self-esteem' So true. Really thought provoking article!

I don’t understand why this woman is taking seriously, or given any ounce of publicity? For the life of me I can’t figure it out.

Can we please stop giving this woman anything? She is everything wrong with the UK. Remember that time she was banged in a field like s cheap tart. Or that time she had to beg for money because she is bankrupt.

If Katie Hopkins is inciting hatred against Muslims, then the Muslims themselves must be, because they do do all those things, I see it with my own eyes whenever I leave the house.

What is this puff piece? She has been indirectly responsible for a spike in RaceHate where real lives have been affected - only for TheGuardian to normalise her vile comments which makes TheGuardian part of the problem

So it’s the shame of her epilepsy that is fuelling her outbursts as an attempt to replace the self esteem that this perceived weakness erodes?

Don’t drag this shit up. DELETE IT.

Why are you interviewing that trashball?

Thank you, The Guardian! I enjoyed reading up on KH, as she continues to appear in different news stories, and I knew nothing about her. I couldn't quite finish the long article as I found no genuinely redeeming factors to her character. But thanks for enlightening me!

This girl speaks the truth. 👌

tl;dr - Katie Hopkins is almost a real person with real issues, who embellishes and sensationalises her (already quite horrible) thoughts to get a reaction from people. Because she doesn't care. The thing is, she adds nothing to any discourse, and should be ignored by all media.

Dearest Guardian. I'm deeply disappointed having seen this person on my Twitter feed. We don't these types of people in our lives so stop giving them a platform. No more. Please.

I need a trip into the abnormal, craven, fucked up psyche of Katie Hopkins about as much as I need a blow torch applied to my genitalia.

Post Brexit national treasure

it is quite simple, she is an idiot who seeks attention

I think she has weird sense of humor. I dont always agree with her but the fact that she doesn't care what others think makes for good conversations if you're not easily offended.

So The Guardian just climbed in the bin under the heading 'Shit Rags', next to the Daily Fail and The Scum. Unfollowed and muted. Laters 👋

She is like the morbidly obese guy I used to work with, so overweight he could barely walk, He would be sat at his desk with several packets of medication moaning about other people abusing NHS, they lack so much self awareness it is scary.

This just in: murderers around the globe wish to disassociate themselves from Katie Hopkins

How about profiling the people she excoriates instead of giving her a platform of hate? This is the MAIN REASON I refuse to pay outlets like the Guardian and nytimes and instead pay for publications who elevate the voices of colour. Deplatform hate

How as a nation can we stop these attention seekers who delight in vicious journalism, poor journalism, from having an impact. Her take on most things is nasty, brutish also needy. She coarsens any discourse she participates in.

Next week in the guardian : the politics and beliefs of Ted Bundy

One click away from blocking Guardian feeds and also, the online paper. This newspaper is totally losing the plot and is becoming the Daily Mail of so called quality papers. Sort yourselves out Guardian or lose readers.

she's the worst

Why are you giving this oxygen thief a platform. Thought the Guardian were better than that.

No oxygen, no fire. Simple. 🙄

Omg! She’s still getting publicity !!!

Simple answer: Probably not; but some people will do anything for money.

Oh wow, so edgy 🙄

Why are you promoting her?

Stop. Giving. This. Woman. A. Platform.
