BREAKING: Hollywood garbage protects its scum. The same people lecturing us about women for hours on end every time they have a microphone, have shockingly not protected them from Weinstein or the industry that allows predatory and powerful men like him to thrive.

The real failure of feminism is that not one male in any of those actresses lives kicked the living shit out of Harvey Weinstein.

You should start by going after that jerkhole who helped quash that NYT story in 2004. You may have heard of him, Matt something or other. https://t.co/GvBfAZ3nG2

Streep would have been better off just remaining silent. Now, she looks even worse by trying to deflect responsibility.

— Mo Mo (@molratty) October 9, 2017

What Hollywood is saying is that young actresses are subhuman, and therefore not worth ruining a man's reputation over.

A victim has adequate reason to fear speaking up. What's your (and many other's) excuse? Fewer roles? https://t.co/yFpQMkXJeH

Not a month ago, Fonda was onstage at the Emmys claiming she refused to be controlled by a "sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot." https://t.co/duHgPDrIsI

Their moral outrage only flares up for awards ceremony speeches and Trump tweets. https://t.co/9xlluNM3XK

Unlike Hillary; Harvey Weinstein’s wife is not standing by her man. @PolitiBunny

Reality show idea: Harvey Weinstein, Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby, Bill O'Reilly, and Trump dumped on a deserted island. Forever.

Some preferred to use the ever ready, "BUT TRUMP!" cry to detract from the Weinstein debacle or otherwise just continue to sweep it under the rug.

"Let's take a case where men on both sides have assaulted young women and use it to prove how awful the other side is."

— Federalist Musket (@Patriot_Musket) October 9, 2017

You want people to keep talking about how bad Weinstein is? Keep going with the "but Trump" garbage.

— Mo Mo (@molratty) October 9, 2017

"I think we need full context to be able to justify why she excused sexual harassment and abuse." https://t.co/3bWF4xrjCr

— J.R. Holmsted (@JHolmsted) October 10, 2017

You know what would be great? If Weinstein outs all the scummy Hollywood pedophiles in a scorched earth rage.

An argument about whether or not Twitter should allow anonymous accounts ensued. Mostly fueled by Tom Nichols who wants it to work the way he wants, but calls everyone else entitled for wanting Twitter to work the way they prefer. Whatevs.

Pretty obvious @RadioFreeTom's argument about anons on twitter is he likes it better that way. And nothing more.

— Mo Mo (@molratty) October 15, 2017

I could give you a list.

I could probably give you a list of women that make me glad to be anon, too https://t.co/629O7Z46D9

Some of the those who's thoughts are most important in this day and age, such as ex-Muslims, have to remain anonymous or risk death.

So Trump shot off some tweets about restricting the press. We...did not take it lying down.

With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 11, 2017

At no point. Ever. https://t.co/KL5AuLIn92

One simple way to avoid worrying about a POTUS using the office to manipulate media coverage is to get the govt out of it. #KillTheFCC

Sean here is so thoroughly up Trump's ass he's willing to trash the first amendment. https://t.co/rrNECOwbXD

We do a lot of damage in a week. Here's some more!

You spelled "rape" wrong... https://t.co/TPWdVqKtud

With all due respect to Reagan, Buckley, & the founding fathers, if I can resurrect one man to set millenials straight it's gotta be Carlin.

— Kayla (@VixenRogue) October 15, 2017

So, since the women are taking the day off... anyone know how to drink beer, smoke cigars, fart, and burp on twitter?

— LunaticRex (@BoonaticRex) October 13, 2017

Between daily hysterics about Trump and daily knee-jerk hyper-defense of Trump - it's really challenging to find realistic commentary.

“Served with honor and distinction”-Words of a bullshit artist.

Maybe a good day to remind everyone that Bill Clinton is treated as a hero while Monica Lewinsky's life was basically ruined. https://t.co/lAlbp3Rhqv

If you don't think you can sing, you are missing out. Just fucking belt it out. Music is life, I'm not even joking.

Unpopular Columbus Day opinion: every country on earth that ended up colonized by the British got lucky as fuck.

I don't deserve the enormous blessings in my life.

Neither do you. But we have them anyways.

God is good.
