Harvey Weinstein

Maybe 25 years ago, recent, urg, would put you off your dinner.

Depends if you're planning on eating stewed mutton with melons.

It's OK, he "regrets it"

Louis CK 'regret' over misconduct

 

[caLLous]

Exponentially better than Spacey's statement.

 

[Gwadien]

This would have been an exceptional opportunity for CK to be a comedy underworld god by responding with 'yeah but im gay'

might put him in prison though.

 

[BloodOmen]

He's still a cunt but I respect CK more for just admitting it instead of skipping around it by going "I don't remember!"

Actor George Takei accused of sexual assault by former actor, model

 

[DaGaffer]

Ellen Page says Brett Ratner outed her as gay in sexual remark when she was 18

So this is where we've got to; basically, "Brett Ratner was mean to me".

Rebel Wilson reveals sexual harassment

"In a series of tweets, she alleged that "a male star in a position of power" had repeatedly asked her to perform an obscene act."

The truffle shuffle?

 

[BloodOmen]

Richard Dreyfuss now too apparently

I can't help but think they seen him coming though...


duunnn dunnn... duuuunnnn duun... duuunnnnnnnn dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnn dunnnn

 

[CorNokZ]

If you're not in the Paradise Papers and never sexually harassed someone; are you even a celebrity then?

 

[Gray]

I wonder if this can swirl around Trump as well? We remember how lurid he was in the pre-election with the recording, could anyone come forward and really implicate him?

Or will he go on a twitter rant about it and demonise women. I want the popcorn ready for that.

Plenty of women did come forward and accuse trump - before the election.

Yep. Loads accused him and then they had the 'grab em by the pussy' tape. Made no difference. Wikileaks timed the email leaks to drown the news cycle over it and Republican voters are so partisan now they'd rather a sex-offender than a Democrat in the White House anyway.

It's OK, he "regrets it"

Louis CK 'regret' over misconduct

Well at least he has the balls to go out and simply admitting to everything... Doesn't excuse what he did but at least he's not being a total arse. Like Weinstein...

It's OK, he "regrets it"

Louis CK 'regret' over misconduct

He's with the left so in the US that regret is acceptable, no further action required!

Hilarious in Merica right now, so fractured with idiots on both sides.

 

[Raven]

Yeah, its funny, people nearly lose a kidney because an MP touches someone's knee, in a pub, but have little issue with someone pulling the old fella out and trying to rub one out in front of a young colleague, on numerous occasions.

A new industry is going to evolve with CGI artists removing actors from films.

fuck me you're both deluded.

 

[Raven]

No, we aren't.

 

[Gwadien]

So you're suggesting that because people are 'left-wing' they get away with crimes like this?

Please.

 

[Raven]

No...

But then I didn't say that, did I?

In your anger you're getting posters mixed up again.

However. Lots of "Respect" heading his way because he said he is sorry for wanking in front of people.

Where's the respect? You got a link where someone (not even "lots") said they respect him?

Still had the full Kevin Spacey in terms of lost work etc. The only "respect" is that is he's fronted it out, and not tried to make excuses, like Spacey did. Nothing to do with left or right politics (in actual fact Spacey's politics are left-leaning by US standards anyway).

 

[Raven]

Again, I couldn't give a shit about his politics. When watching a show like parks and rec, checking the political leanings of occasional actors isn't exactly top on my list of things to do.

My point is that people are fine with someone having a dirty handshake in front of some unsuspecting women, because he is very very sorry /sadface.

The man is quite obviously a filthy perv, if it was once then maybe a misnderstanding but it appears it was habitual.

"sorry" isn't going to cheer up the poor fuckers he gurned to, chap in hand.

Come on then. Links of these "respectful" people and examples of people who are "fine" with it...

Sorry what people are "fine" with it? He's had all his shows and work cancelled and his publicist has dumped him. I haven't seen any words of forgiveness anywhere.

 

[Gwadien]

Raven is hilarious.

He's trying to be that politically-neutral guy that you can have proper discussions about.

Reality is, he's paranoid as @Job

 

[Raven]

No, I just don't have the time or inclination to look up everyone's political leanings.

Ironically, if you do look up everyone's political leaning, then perhaps you are the one with a paranoia issue?

 

[Wij]

If anything it's working the other way round. Taking it back to where it started, Weinstein was a Democrat donor. He was rightly crucified by all sides.

Spacey is probably a liberal. He'll never work again.

Louis CK may be a liberal for all I know. Apart from people saying "At least he didn't say 'Yeh, but I'm gay'", I don't think he's getting away with it either.

Roy Moore on the other hand is getting soft-gloves treatment. Fox News (Hannity etc...) is suggesting it's all liberal lies and/or she near-enough consented because she didn't go to the police. GOP Senators are saying "Of course it would be bad IF he did it but let's wait and see. Maybe he didn't." Alabama GOP members are saying "Of course it would be bad if he did it but electing a Democrat is worse than nonceing up kids."

And of course we have Donald Trump on the right too. He got elected President and the world said "meh" about all the allegations against him.
