Harvey Weinstein.

Clearly the guy is a sexual predator but my question is why are all of these women only coming out now?
If Jolie and Paltrow had reported him 25 years ago then surely this would have stopped him?
Surely by saying nothing they are assisting an offender?

'Anybody taking pleasure from today's ruling needs to re-think their outlook.'
Are you equally happy for the police and legal system to fit up, say, a burglar? Or a protester who you don't agree with? Or anyone else you don't like?

Understand the judge allowed witnesses whose allegations werent part of the charges against him in the NY trial
Not fair so he will be tried again.
Maybe a bit pointless as the fat rapey cunt will be eating prison food for a long time yet

Oh don’t worry, Trunds, I knew you weren’t saying that.
It’s a shitshow over the Pond at the moment. Loads of sexual offense cases verdicts overturned on higher court rulings.
The US justice system is increasingly just about £££.

I wasn't taking pleasure from it, sbbb, if that how it came across.
It's all a bit of a joke over the pond at the moment.

Weinstein getting convicted was not virtual signalling though (I know you never said it was - but let's be clear).
Even after today he remains a convicted rapist.
His 2020 convictions will likely be retried. Today's ruling does not disprove those allegations. The ruling is that other evidence should not have been admitted - and therefore that he received an unfair trial. But the core allegations of rape remain - even with the 2020 convictions.
He also faces allegations of serious sexual wrongdoing in the UK - two potential charges.
Anybody taking pleasure from today's ruling needs to re-think their outlook. They guy is a horrible rapist. Even judges who played a part in today's ruling - the judges voted narrowly 4-3 - have said it sets back more recent gains within the US justice system.

Thanks for the explanation. Lefties and celebrities (mainly lefties of the champagne slurping type) love a bit of the old virtue signalling.
This must be referring to the Boko Haram attacks on school kids in Nigeria.
Wonderful people are Nigerians. Wonderful people are Muslims. Ergo Nigerian Muslims are the best of the best!

In the early days of virtual signalling, 200+ Nigerian girls were kidnapped by a load islamic nutters.
A load of celebs put out the hashtag #BringBackOurGirls and 10 years later they appear to mostly all still be held in captivity and used as baby machines.

Maybe this is the start of the pendulum swinging back to normality.
The trans activists are now in free fall after the Cass report.
The BLM marxists have been exposed for the money grabbers they are and now this.
All these little groups that sprung up during the covid era are now starting to be questioned.
Climate crisis next.

#METOO was good, but not as good as #BRINGBACKOURGIRLS who are pretty much all still in captivity 10 years later.

>>> After all this came out The Guardian asked 20 well known men in Hollywood (actors, directors, etc) for comment. I'm still trying to work out why they didn't ask Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep. Or how comes their leading film critic didn't know about this.
Because they wanted to ask men about it, for obvious reasons. How do you know they didn't ask Julia Roberts or Meryl Streep seperately? Why would a film critic know anything about it?

>>> But how can these women not have been aware of what was coming when a film producer takes them to his hotel room to “audition” or to “talk about their career”?
Some may have suspected, some would have been naive. At least some of the accounts were that they would arrange to meet at a hotel reception only to be sent up to the suite. The state of mind of the victims is not really the issue.
If it's any help at all I could say that working on TV outside broadcasts for 10 years I understand how living out of and socialising in hotel rooms is not only normal, it's often the only way to communicate or get things done. If you accept that the execs often get suites with spaces deliberately there to enable meetings then it's even more normal.

Accused of sex trafficking now!
Apparently in 2013 he flew a 31 year old wannabe British actress to Cannes where they had sex, non consensual she claims.
In 2014 she attended an after show party in London that he was hosting.
In 2017 she decides to sue him for sex trafficking.
I imagine being flown first class to Cannes was pretty appalling.
Face facts, she went there on the promise of getting a role in a film and she didn’t.

I hope he gets prosecuted and sent down if he’s guilty of a fraction of the things he has been accused of.
But how can these women not have been aware of what was coming when a film producer takes them to his hotel room to “audition” or to “talk about their career”?

But of course, he did. They all fucking did. Now, they have the gall to lecture the rest of us.
