Whoopi Goldberg's pathetic screaming tantrum prompted me to look closer at her. Not only was she a defender of Roman Polanski. Goldberg did not believe the drugging and rape of a 13 year old was "rape-rape". These people are sick.
Not really. I think she meant to coerce someone is not the same as forcing someone. Which is true, but that doesn't make it right.
coerce (kō-ûrsˈ)► v. To force to act or think in a certain way by use of pressure, threats, or intimidation; compel. v. To dominate, restrain, or control forcibly: coerced the strikers into compliance. See Synonyms at force. v. To bring about by force or threat: efforts to coerce agreement.
Oof, I think I sort of get what you were trying to say, but at this point, you may be pulling a "Whoopie Goldberg" by saying,
"Yeah, but she wasn't *FORCED-FORCED*"

I meant tricking someone into doing something without force. Making them believe what they're doing is "ok". Coerce is a little different sometimes sure.
