        Y’all are being way too harsh. I’m sure he has a really good reason for why he enabled and protected Harvey Weinstein’s rapery. Something so convincing that we’d all say, “you were absolutely right to help blow up the lives of fellow artists. You’re really not a piece of shit!”

        Eta: Apparently, my sarcasm was too subtle. The fact that people aren’t catching onto that is incredibly depressing because that means this was a believably shitty take. I really thought the last sentence was a dead giveaway…

        Humanity and satire are dead, killed by genuine ghouls who are totally cool supporting monsters.

          There’s never a good reason to enable and protect rape.

          I just realized that you’re probably being sarcastic, though.

            I really thought that my sarcasm was obvious, especially with that last sentence… Apparently there are people out there who are more openly shitty than I realized.

            There’s never a good reason to enable and protect rape.

            Any standard set lower than this should be grounds to get throat-punched.

              Yeah, there are absolutely people who honestly believe that exposing Weinstein was a bad thing. Humans suck.
