“It sure is a shame...” he said, the spurs of his boots jingling, “About what these people have to endure” Jeb gestured around him to the sea of Natives huddled around small fires and piles of belongings.

Hot shot male doesn’t listen to orders and fucks everything up, Laura Dern (with much higher rank and more experience) has to come in to save everyone who hasn’t already died. Same hot shot male undermines her and fucks up her strategy, she has to sacrifice her life to save everyone. She still compliments him and…
The Poe character pissed me off in this one.
He’s lucky he’s not in jail. His ego is so damn big he can’t help himself.
Is he in any kind of legal danger because of what Peter Jackson, Salma Hayek and Lupita Nyong’o said?
The accusations were made by a man.
He can’t let it go. He’s losing control. This terrifies him.
In my experience, this particular type of person (see: Donald Trump) always has to have the last fucking word even if it means shooting themselves in the foot. Their egos simply won’t permit a dignified silence.
I think he’s responding to this specific story because one of the people testifying is a man.
HW is most likely drafting and possibly distributing it ala Trump amd Weinstein’s tactics for that matter.
I don’t think he will. He’ll spend the rest of his life taking potshots at his accusers if anyone gives him a platform, and he’ll die thinking he’ll be producing another movie if he says the right thing to the right person. Or he’ll be right and he’ll get some of his old power back.
The allegations he’s responding too are later ones. He’s gotten bored of listening to PR advice and is being his horrible self.
He’s just doing what he’s always done. And it’s always worked before. Calling people liars when they accuse him of something is probably practically a Pavlovian response to that a-hole.
He’s broken inside in the same way that Donald Trump is. He’s spent his entire life bullying and gaslighting and tormenting people. He does it because he’s a psychopath who enjoys it, he’s gotten good at it over the years, and he’s not flexible enough to switch to other tactics when he finds himself in a situation…
the thing that’s always driven to the top of my mind when one of these scumlords insists on responding with such transparent, flimsy bullshit is that these sexual assaults aren’t done out of desire or lust for the woman or man being assaulted - it’s the simple fact of the power the assaulter has over their victim in…
Because he’s a predator. He’s spent his life harassing and assaulting women, and threatening them into silence. And now we know he’s also ruined their careers and lives in other ways. He can’t shut up. It’s him against them, and they were never supposed to be strong enough to overpower him.
I think men in general are kinda paranoid about social media these days. I don’t agree with what he said but I don’t think he meant it in a rude way but he also needs to shhhhhhhhhh.
I think he might be saying social media exacerbates responses. He might be observing the catch-22 of its immediacy. On one hand, it’s beneficial because it draws in communities in need. You can easily gather around a cause. What’s the flip side of that? The story can be hijacked by a Twitter feud, a blocked Instagram…
Also, as far as sabotaging, one can already seen signs of it. Every woman that comes out after this has been branded as someone looking for fame and fortune.
I believe what he is saying is that we need to process and focus on the social problem rather than focus on the emotional impulses of the initial reaction. For instance, plenty of people have gotten angry at the string of men that have been revealed to be predators, but what exactly is being done about it so that…
