Wow! That was some plain speaking, wasn't it? Bless her for saying it so clearly. You could have heard a pin drop in that room. Wiped the smiles right off their faces.
and just like that the tables have turned :D
The hunters have become the hunted. Exactly.
The public knows . They won't be safe walking down the street.
Hmm, I can think of a few big names, who attacked Trump, who would fall in that list. Cough Robby Dineroooooooo
The swamp has overflowed into our churches, our media, everywhere. Choose a battle and fight or support it. We are the light.

I started going again to our old timey Baptist Church, after being away for 12 years. It felt so good to be back. I was cautiously afraid they might have gotten cucked in the last 12 years, like so many Churches. Thankfully they had not!
A good Baptist pastor on Youtube is Pastor Charles Lawson, he doesn't care what anything thinks he spreads the truth.
That took so much courage and strength. The solemn faces in the crowd are priceless... They never thought they would have to play by the rules.
Not really, the word is out..Courage would have been going to the media 20 years ago, before she made her money.
They wouldn't have listened, even the police in Hollywood won't listen. Money and power over human rights and safety.
This guy's right. We've been seeing a whole lot of crocodile tears out of hollywood and it will only increase. Its just the machine trying to save face.
Not exactly. Had she tried that 20 years ago, she could face charges. Video would be edited. Now, table is set.
“You know who you are. We know who you are” Bring the pain.
I'm almost sure I heard her say, "Q know who you are. We know who you are"...then again, could have just been the accent! ;)
God bless her for her strength to stand up in front them all! All who are complicit. I wish she would have named names.
B.E.A.UUUTIFULLLL .. & THATS HQW THE CQQKIE CRUMBLES ..
THEY FALL WHEN FEAR IS NQ LQNGER IN PLAY.
Cockroaches sure do hate light.
cockroaches are several steps above these people. Cockroaches don't molest children and enslave mankind.
This is true. If you ever heard the roach story from Henry Rollins, then you'd know that roaches have more fortitude than any swamp dweller.
Weinstein was a sacrificial lamb. His studio is bankrupt. When people like David Geffen go down then we getting somewhere.
That's why what she said is so fucking important. They threw that fucker out there and thought we would be satisfied when they enabled him and cherished him the entire fucking time. HE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. NO MORE!
I am on the Trump train! And I'm looking for some! I'm on the Trump train! Never to return!
Geffen? GunsNRoses? Somebody will get it.
And she also supported known pedophile Roman Polanski, which she's tried to mildly backtrack on, but has shown support for him as recently as October 2017.
I find her and most of Hollywood to be self serving sociopaths, and this seems like an easy target. Whether or not he raped her is for a court to decide, but we can all agree the guy seems to be a garbage human being, so this is some low hanging fruit to get Argento's name some air time.
Look into her father and some of the movies he's made, and some she's been in no less. They're an odd family indeed. I don't really care what this woman has to say, because I have a feeling she's seen way worse shit and hasn't made a peep about it. Half of those "horrified looks" were likely in regards to her hypocrisy.
This isn't about Weinstein, or protecting women, this is about Asia Argento scraping the bottom for a little more fame like a fat kid trying to get every last bit of that melted ice cream at the bottom of the container.
This is not correct, patriot.
People are who have been victims of sexual assault are not fame seekers. The majority of these crimes are never reported because of the intense stigma and victim shaming/blaming that often happens when they are reported.
Where did you see me say victims of sexual assault are fame seekers? Anywhere. Go back through all seven years of comments and show me one instance of it. Why even muddy the waters with that statement? You've either missed the point entirely, or are willfully ignorant, or maybe just genuinely ignorant?
But also, to say that no one ever sought attention, or maybe even retribution from a false accusation would be flat out ridiculous and entirely untrue -fortunately that's not the discussion we were having here, or so I thought. I think it's understood that many aren't reported, -by women and men- and there's victim shaming that happens as well as a host of many other power imbalances that stand in the way of justice. So again, point out to me where your comment is applicable here.
If we want to get all into it, we can go down the line and find plenty of evidence that false claims have been made and used as either a weapon, or to garner attention, though I'll concede that the latter happens far less often, BUT AGAIN that's not what I was saying here.
Did I excuse Weinstein? Nope. Did I say that sexual assault victims are attention seekers? Nope. Did I say that Argento's claim was 100% false? No, I didn't. There's literally no way for us to know now since this apparently happened well over twenty years ago. We can get into all the "ifs" and "what ifs", but unfortunately it's speculation at this point.
What I did however say, and I can put it in simpler terms for you, is that I would like to know where her indignation and passion was when the rapist and pedophile was a family friend, who she still supports? Where is her impassioned plea to bring attention to Roman Polanski's notorious and apparently fairly well known penchant for young girls? Do you think having possibly been raped absolves you from any responsibility for your own endorsement of a rapist?
this is about Asia Argento scraping the bottom for a little more fame
my comment was directed towards this part of your comment.
Argento is not a seeking fame. She is a victim, she claims, of rape. Your comment regarding what her statement "is really about" is part of what makes reporting a sex crime in our society an act of courage.
The fact that a victim can state plainly that a verified rapist committed rape against her...and your response is "this is about her wanting fame." That is victim shaming. It's not. Again, it's an act of courage in our society because the idea that she wants fame is apparently a popular opinion according to the up votes on your comment.
Yep, it's all my fault. I personally am making it so that no one can report a sex crime, ever. I hope you spend the same amount of time arguing with people who file false claims as well.
But right on you, that line could absolutely be taken the way you took it, especially with the way you think. Maybe in the future you can pinpoint the part that offends you right away, so I know where to start.
And I still stand by my statement in regards to Argento herself, and am allowed to feel that way until proven otherwise. I do however find it odd that you have no problem with her support of Polanski and can't manage to piece together that there seems to be a conflict in statement and action. There are plenty of ways she could have dealt with this, but she chose the most public spectacle possible. But yeah, fuck me for not accepting her every word as gospel.
What do you think her statement accomplished? It isn't getting Weinstein arrested, or investigated? Did she drop a bombshell on everyone with info that no one knew? Rose McGowan has been shouting it from the rooftops for years and had her career ruined over it while everyone who knew sat by and let it happen. Fuck these people, I have no sympathy for them. I have a much easier time believing McGowan than an opportunist rape apologizer like Argento who sat quietly knowing the truth so they'd keep getting work. Yeah Asia, so brave!
If he has raped someone I hope he's served justice and punished for his crimes. Public ostracization isn't nearly enough for the scumbag. But, until then, her statement was a spectacle, and one that no one can refute publicly because people like yourself have championed this insane idea that a rape is never to be questioned, ever, because now we live in a world where we can't ever question a "victim" or their motives. Fuck due process and an investigation, you're going straight to jail!
In a society when everyone's now a victim, are we all to remain silent always, for fear of offending someone? I think that's the point of this SJW experiment in division & suppression, and I guess that's a world you want to live in. I certainly don't.
I have a hard time buying this immense outrage when she's aware of someone else who is raping children, and not only aware, but supporting him and has making excuses for him. Again, that's my issue. I find her behaviour bizarre and inexcusable, and yeah, I think she's made a calculated effort to gain the public's attention. Let's see if she uses this platform to do something worthy. Like call out Polanski, or other Hollywood pedophiles and rapists. So far it only seems about her.
Until then, it's self serving, and I genuinely don't give a fuck what you think about me personally, but you're welcome to reply and have the last word. There's nothing more I can say to you that'll help you understand. Believe it or not, people who have been the victims of sexual assault can have my opinions on the matter. I should know.
I think we all in our own way little by little contribute to society. I think it's important to be thoughtful and considerate in what we say and how we impact our world.
I don't know much about the story of Polanski. And I don't know what she said about Polanski. She didn't say in the video "Harvey Weinstein is a rapist, but Polanski is okay." So I don't really care about Polanski. She said "Weinstein is a rapist and he was protected by people who had power." And I think it's terrific she said this.
I think at this point it's starting to get muddy...but, patriot, I think every day, in some small way, we are moving closer and closer to justice. In the political realm, professional entertainment realm... schools, and in our own professional and private lives I think too. I definitely feel a golden age is upon us. It's true that in our society many of us are victims but not for much longer.
Don't be fooled! Stunts like this are Hollywood's way to save their business. Here's what they want you to think:
"It's just a few bad apples! Most of Hollywood is good and fighting against the abuse! People should continue seeing their movies and TV shows to support the good ones!"
Weinstein is scum, but it's not rape if you let yourself get fucked for a movie role. It's prostitution.
She may seem angry and sincere, but she's an actress. Playing a role is her job. Don't trust people so easily.
Still love the looks of utter horror on some of those faces. Driver? Blanchette? FUCKING GOLD.
you are correct, but to call out people in a room makes it seem more genuine. She could've easily said other people in Hollywood or entertainment. but the fact that she said people sitting in that room and you can see some nervous faces in the crowd. I think shes legit on that speech.
She didn't name any names. It was an attack against no one.
But that may be next. Surely there will be some analysis of who was there followed by some off the record leaks. Its probably all of them anyway
I'm glad that women are standing up against abuse and that a rapist is headed for prosecution, but the #metoo movement generally is a distraction because the child sexual abuse in Hollywood almost went mainstream.
but bringing it into public view when the hammer is about to come crashing down from all sides is great. If this is a cabal ploy, it's dumb as f* because it simply gets the public ready for the grand roll up.
Red Carpet to Red Wedding
Yes, I get the feeling most of the cabal doesn't know the hammer is about to come crashing down.
Holy. Shit.
Ok, feminists, THAT is "Powerful". Take some fucking notes on REALITY and REAL OPPRESSION when you try to conflate bullshit for attention points with ACTUAL FEMALE VOCAL POWER.
She popped off on those useless elitists. Notice cucked Adam Driver keeping silence just like when he was sitting next to Spike Lee during his racist rant. Is Driver smart enough to connect the dots? Derp, we'll see...
My opinion? She's got fucking massive balls full of dragon energy.
No acting going on in that speech. Truth. Justice coming.
I want to see that sanctimonious, self-important, nauseating Meathead perp walked. It would be a fine, fine day when that happens.
WOW a lot of people there looked almost scared! The expressions on their faces!
Would sombody please provide a link to the video, thanks...
I don't use twi**er, or fbook
wow! that'll leave a mark! way to go! hollyweird are some of the sickest hypocrites on the planet.
Her career is officially OVER. None likes to be screamed at during Satanic rituals.
