This blog post calls out those (thankfully small minority) FR posters who blame the victim rather than the vicious perpetrator.

The real target has to be Bill Clinton. Take him down as a sexual predator and a lot of the other cards collapse.

“Ravage thr Hollywood swamp”?

I could almost forgive the guy if he could, and would, ravage the DC Swamp. I’ll bet he has enough information to take down all Clintons, Obamas, and 75 percent of the legislature critters.

If Weinstein is connected in any way to the Pizza Gate in the D.C. ring, this will bring down a lot of Congress and department people...

I’ve seen no one here blaming the victims.

I’ve seen claims that some women participated voluntarily to get what they wanted.

Those women, to whatever extent they exist, aren’t victims.

This blog isn’t news.
It’s a blog.

This threatens not only hollywierd but ALL of the “powerful” people: Politicians, actors, musicians (although their groupies seem to wanna be harassed), producers, directors, media, corporatists, artists, doctors, nurses, COLLEGE PROFESSORS, PEDOPHILES, union thugs, NFL, NBA, baseball, etc...

They will be twisting themselves into pretzels to distance themselves from this dirt. But they can’t. They are the dirt. We see the filth and won’t pay them anymore. Kinda like the NFL.

And it’s awesome! Die you mf’s die. All of you scummy people.

Not to diminish the real harm he has done to people over the years, but the funny part of this is how he is such an unlikeable guy, such a perv, that NO one on the left is willing to stand up for him. Unlike Bill Clinton and others who have gotten a pass for their charm and charisma, this guy is such a scum bucket that they cannot overlook or minimize any part of this, and that is an invitation to bring up all the others as well.

No Hillary, your husbands rape and other misdeeds have not “been litigated”. But they could be...is that what you want?

It is fair to say that the women who willingly play that game, either by inviting it or willingly going along do ruin it for the women who will not play that game.

It’s in corporate america as well... I lost potential clients because the decision makers only worked with women who would pay that price....and they willingly did so.

Nope, not buying it.

When discussing victim-blamers, there was no need for the author to mention Free Republic specifically.

And if the author was determined to mention Free Republic, he could have cited a few other sites as well. But he didn’t. Free Republic stood out all alone.

But wait, it gets worse. The author goes on to connect those minority opinions on Free Republic with Muslim practices.

It doesn’t seem to me that the author was deliberately trying to smear Free Republic. But smear Free Republic he did.

I remember that one post but all the others IIRC definitely did not support him.

I don’t recall anybody on FR who defends Weinstein, but to anybody who reactively condemns those who might have legitimate doubts about his accusers I offer two words: Crystal Mangum.

There’s a common pattern among these incidents: Weinstein invited the women to his hotel room ostensibly to discuss business, and they went along willingly.

It should have been a lesson drilled into their heads when they hit puberty: never accept any man’s invitation to his hotel room.
