I had been a fan of Tina for years, but she’s definitely someone who has embraced her white privilege. I think she’s a good person; but once someone reaches a certain level of success, I think something happens to their brains that fucks with their empathy. Maybe the money, or maybe the fame. Probably both.

I had a similar read on the ending initially. Especially in an American context where xenophobia is on the rise and right wing calls for deportation and wall building are rampant, the arc of the story feels like it reinforces those attitudes. Let your bleeding heart slip you up and there will be casualties.
At the…
Close, but no birds or spirit make up. It looks funnier when they’re cussing and they got some bright as hell coloring and glitter on their cheeks.
I was expecting a hot blonde walking off in a huff, throwing her pom-poms down in a fit of rage, and doing a walk off double bird salute with long pedicured nails as she disappears from sight.
I hate clickbait headlines.
Ellie, your take is bad. If flake actually believed any of his rhetoric he would be holding up judges, demanding trump divest from his businesses, release his tax returns, etc etc. Flake is just polishing up his resume w/the Villagers as a “conservative man of conscience” TM! so that Flake can make the sunday shows…
Nude scenes in art films are comparable to Bumfights.com? C’mon....
So is nudity in any movie or show then considered exploitation no matter what, even when there is a contract? If so, I’m genuinely curious how, or even if you truly can, have scenes in film with nudity anymore.
This is the most ridiculous argument. She signed up to do work for him, and the work involved nudity. Was the nudity in the contract? Did she disagree with the nudity? Is there a problem with nudity in film? This wasn’t like some personal photography, she signed up to work on a film project and the film included…
This line of reasoning is nuts. This is a grown woman, completely infantilizing herself and asking you to buy the idea that she has no agency or free will in the presence of someone so powerful. Like, his powerful aura hypnotized her into signing up to do a job for money.
To an extent, but is exploitation just any job you didn’t want to do for less money than you’d like? Because if so most jobs count. In an article about potential sexual assault, “his contracts don’t pay very well” seems like a weirdly petty thing to include.
If he did do some of those things he’s clearly horrible, but “my wages to do a nude scene weren’t as high as I would like” is a really lukewarm inclusion in this.
I’ve gotten called antisemitic for saying we shouldnt burn Palestinians alive with white phosphorus.
That’s illegal if you’re in the US. Look up the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (NLRA). There are some even stronger statutes at the state level, so check your state as well.
What if she had been cast, filmed a scene depicting abuse, and then complained of PTSD?
A joint is just weed.
This makes a lot of sense.
To be fair, Old Testament God is a mega asshole.
It's nice you're blatantly ignoring the REAL reason why people are complaining, less so about security, and more so about your lack of holding Apple accountable when, if roles were reversed, you would for sure be holding Android, WP8, etc... accountable.
