Tuxedo Catfish posted:Yeah. While our justice system is a travesty in many ways, not least of which is its inadequate support of victims, a purely victim-centric justice system wouldn't be ideal either, for precisely this reason: people like Weinstein are a danger to society, not just to the people they've already hurt, and it shouldn't be possible for them to escape the consequences and potentially go on hurting people just by paying one person off. (Even if that person is completely within their rights to take what they can get and then try and put the whole thing behind them!) The $25 million payout is just for the civil side of things. He still faces criminal charges.

Harvey Weinstein posted:I’ve supported independent filmmakers, but does anyone call me Harvey the Filmmaker? No! I’ve supported the careers of women who’ve touched my disgusting misshapen cock, but does anyone call me Harvey, Supporter of Women? No! But repeatedly rape and assault women for decades on end, and all of a sudden it’s “Harvey the Rapist.” So unfair, no?

After reading the first few paragraphs my mind immediately jumped to the Frankie Shaw stuff because of how similar it sounded and the fact that is was a Showtime show but I hadn’t heard that there were complaints about The Chi too. Not to mention the stuff that’s gone on at CBS Studios proper, which is all part of the same circle of garbage. What the gently caress is up with Viacom?

Remember this? Never got any kind of info on this did we?

Will you be posting any updates or specifics, here? No response was given and I was blocked.

No, you couldn't. People came out and put themselves forward as victims with accounts of what he did. That they were in his social circle, indeed had been in relationships with him, was verifiable, and many of them corroborated each other's stories and his pattern of behaviour. This particular Goldblum thing is a person with form for making sensational but unsupported claims making a sensational but unsupported claim. She supplies no proof, no accounts of what he did to these people she says talk to her (presumably because that would be actionable), and no names. No one at all but her to say that it is true. Now, it might be true, but you'd have to be a loving idiot to accept it as so based on what she put out there. Edit: Oh and yeah, as experienced by Avian Pneumonia, she also blocks people for simply being in threads where someone questions whether or not the accusations she makes are true. A totally normal and trustworthy behaviour. Lovely Joe Stalin fucked around with this message at 20:02 on Dec 23, 2019 |

There were a lot of random stories and anecdotes just kind of around. I know We Hate Movies had somebody write in about a month or so before that Twitter thread sharing a story of Goldblum being a creep to their 17-year-old (I think) sister after some event. Just nothing that really breaks the surface in this day and age. Mostly stories of Goldblum ogling young women and being openly horny. So, who knows if there's more . Nothing big or organized that I know of.

Drake has been getting dragged in Twitter and socials for like 2 weeks straight but absolutely no one is taking the bullet and saying anything in a major outlet, it’s super weird to watch. I’ve seen dozens of threads like “Why y’all acting weird about Drake!” “Well he flirts with children constantly and texts teenage girls about boys they like” “whatever, y’all just hatin!” and it’s just like super crazy. But somebody pointed out that music is probably more powerful than cinema and musicians can probably get away with more, especially the bigger they are.

Yep, it's weird that, despite the long history of musicians creeping on underage girls (and writing songs about it) and despite people thinking we've "moved on" from that culture, a guy is just openly grooming underage girls to gently caress when they turn legal and then dump when they reach their 20's. Just doing it right out in the open, everybody knows about it, but I guess since he waits until they're legal he's not technically doing anything punishable by law. He's basically just another Epstein, but he has to be smarter about it because he's not as wealthy or white.
