as bad as him? Career could be as important as life, sometimes. When they are forced to choose accepting to keep their career or rejecting to their career, you blame those who accept for career?
Itâs always been that way. Harvey is just the latest poster boy.
Itâs pretty hilarious that the rightists are using this to attack the ones who donât buy their rhetorics when Trump himself was also very much in Weinsteinâs circle. A simple Google search generates them posing together in a picture. Have people forgotten about his âYOUâRE FIREDâ reality tv show?
He was Hollywood. He even presented at the Golden Globes once. The finger-pointing wonât fool anyone.
In any case, this turns out to be illegal.
Well, they made a choice and they need to own it. No one forced them to have a sweaty Weinstein going up and down on them, they decided that becoming successful millionaire actresses was more important for them.
Just to be clear, Iâm in no way advocating for Weinstein, but itâs hard for me to sympathize with a bunch of millionaire actresses whose careers were kickstarted by Weinstein after they decided to let him do with their bodies whatever he wanted.

I didnât think that âposing together in a pictureâ meant âto be within the same circleâ.
Good to know, it will come in handy in the future.
So was HillaryâŚand the Obamas. Your point?
They were probably never BFFs per se, but everybody knows that Trump was a reality tv star. Itâs true that Hollywood is hypocritical and full of filth, everybody knows that, but itâd be pretty laughable to exclude Trump as he was also in it for quite a long time.
Whoâs moralizing now?
Think about it: you hear a nasty rumor about one of the most powerful people in Hollywood, yet you arenât directly affected and have no evidence. What do you expect to happen if you speak out?
Actually he is accused of raping four women.
You do understand that means he forced them right?
He molested countless others. There can be no excuses.

I know, I can sympathize with them, but the amount of actresses who admitted getting laid with him for fame is much higher.
Not moralizing, just enjoying the hypocrisy. Iâm actually a Jane Fonda fan. That latest face lift is just amazing.
I donât really understand , as if that mitigates him abusing possibly hundreds of women!?
It doesnât, theyâre just different issues.
So, why conflate then?
conflating what ?_? iâm keeping the issues separate because theyâre different both from a legal and (to my eyes) moral point of view. One is consensual, one is not, so when addressing the fact that I donât feel much sympathy for women who agreed to have sex with him, Iâm in no way expressing the same thing over his alleged rapes.
I think itâs muddying the waters.
Strip that out and leave to one side . The guy is a real scumbag and should go to jail for a longtime .
Hopefully theyâll throw him in jail and lose the key. His lawyers will probably play the:âHEâS SICK, HE NEEDS HELPâ card, and I hope that when that fails heâll not do the Polanski Runaway.
I feel much sympathy for women who agreed to have sex with him under the situation otherwise losing their careers.
I feel sympathy for anybody who had to see that sweaty brute nakedâŚincluding his wife.
