Koalas March posted:It is about race though. Black women's accomplishments are pushed aside, overshadowed or straight up ignored in favor of white women. Regardless, I don't think he meant to overlook the accomplishments of the black woman on purpose.

ReidRansom posted:I'm not close to this situation and really haven't even been following it because celebrities bore me generally, but is it possible that maybe Weinstein's wife was a victim in all this too and might deserve a bit of sympathy as well? This is one I see from both sides. McGowan believes his wife knew and supported him, Milano believes she was either in heavy denial or didn't know at all. It's hosed up either way and shows how much harm his actions have done to everyone. I like how Barry's just gonna let her. He coulda stopped her, it's not like he wasn't quick enough.

I'm more likely to believe that some R voters in Alabama will sit this election out but I have a really hard time thinking they will straight up leave the Republican party.

theflyingorc posted:I've seen you post before Petr, I'm not dumb enough to think you're just asking questions. Are you implying that I "just ask questions" about things that phrase is usually applied to, like racism or sexual assault? Because I can't think of any other reason you'd use that wording, and it's false. I asked you politely if there was something specific you were basing your post on. You didn't have to go bugfuck over it.

That was my original assumption, but unfortunately from what I've heard industry chatter says she was complicit and never cared about how he treated other women as long as he made money.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:Please tell me that was hotly debated and the "Michiganian" side harbors grudges to this day. I guess what I really want is to make a doc someday that uses a lot of blood-soaked mitten imagery. Not really, the term is pretty common. I guess there was some debate between the UP folk (youpers) and mitten folk (trolls) but that's mostly just friendly. The important thing is we all hate ohio so maybe you can make a doc about our war with them a while back

mango sentinel posted:African Alabamans is... an eyebrow raising phrase to use but yes. Multiple reports of hostile polling officers, lying robocalls directing people to the wrong polling place, the "inactive voter" bullshit all over this page. none of those are strictly speaking people being turned away from the polls ![]() the inactive voter bullshit is "well cast a provisional ballot and spend your time and gas appealing or whatever" also in your voter suppression list you missed police officers hanging out outside polling places' Magic Circle checking for outstanding warrants

I'm not sure that "industry chatter" is fair to declare as more authoritative on the situation than a friend who knew her personally. I don't think it would be fair to declare Milano perfectly in the right or in the wrong based on what we know, seems like Schrodinger's Milkshake duck, to me

theflyingorc posted:I'm not sure that "industry chatter" is fair to declare as more authoritative on the situation than a friend who knew her personally. Industry chatter knew about Weinstein, Spacey and Synger long before the general public. Believe it or not everyone in the entertainment bubble is well connected and gossip is a commodity for us. People know things and they talk. Trust me on this. Edit: I'm gonna add that earlier this year I was filming a reality show pilot in Los Angeles and San Clemente and got an offer from someone who was trying to connect me with Weinstein's office. The other person I was working with warned against that. Koalas March fucked around with this message at 22:18 on Dec 12, 2017 |

Which is undoubtedly a thing that happens. On the other hand blaming the wife for a mans sexual misdeeds is also a thing that happens. Or hell anyone proximate to a crime for their complicity. You’re a better judge of the chatter you have acess to but I’m not sure from this remove why we should believe anything on the base of unsourced rumor.

pepito sanchez posted:why is voting in USA so weird? The founder of ALEC, a right wing group designed to squash representation and voting power through a common legislative blueprint, explicitly does not believe in everyone having the right to vote. Apply this viewpoint to every arcane and seemingly nonsensical law related to voting.
