I really wonder how Polanski’s recent past played into how he was treated when this happpened in the 70s. Several years ago I watched a Manson doc on the History Channel and it included footage of Polanski addressing the media. I felt so badly for him. He barely escapted the Nazis and was able to become a film maker.

I am tired of men defining real rape as “the level which I haven’t done to a woman”. The rape definition changes and doesn’t get believed because these men feel guilty as fuck because they knew in their hearts they’ve crossed lines and boundaries. Tarantino sits at home at night and lies to himself he’s not a rapist

Errr, I am European, and I am aways a bit confused about what some people think are European morals. Europe is a continent and every country is different, but I can assure that in Europe, rape is not part of our morals. A motherfucker is a motherfucker, here and there.

He didn’t rape a 13-year-old. It was statutory rape...he had sex with a minor. That’s not rape. To me, when you use the word rape, you’re talking about violent, throwing them down—it’s like one of the most violent crimes in the world. You can’t throw the word rape around. It’s like throwing the word ‘racist’ around.
