No. Just no. No artistic people get horrible degenerative diseases. It isn’t a price one pays. His disease had nothing to do with his gifts. It just fucking sucks, is meaningless and that is how life is sometimes.

She’s not allowed to make political statements. William is president of Bafta. Why should she sit out? Can we stop vilifying women who aren’t doing Times Up well enough?

Oh, come on.

Yeah. Like it’s Meryl Streep’s fault, with her high-profile studio job, her assigned parking space on the Weinstein Company lot, her 24-hour assistants rolling calls from Studio City, and her chauffeur-driven Bentley idling outside the Brown Derby.../s

people will find a reason, any reason, to somehow blame women for men’s crimes

I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m not blaming Streep. She has claimed to be a staunch feminist and supporter of women everywhere. If she knew about HW and did nothing, it’s because she was protecting herself and her bank account. She needs to be called out if that’s true.

“it makes my blood boil when people will find a reason, any reason, to somehow blame women for men’s crimes.” Yes! Seeing that image included in this article makes me crazy! I’ve seen Jez take some swings at Meryl over the years, and I’m sure she’d be a great high-profile target for an enterprising reporter/writer and…

Yes, let’s ignore the fact that alleged serial rapist and human trafficker Harry Weinstein is still walking around free as a bird with no sign of that changing anytime soon, and redirect our vitriol to random women in his professional circle!

I was really baffled by this part too - aside from the whole Trump aspect of it, I just don’t think it’s Meryl Streep’s job to police the abusers of Hollywood and I’m surprised Jezebel apparently does.

Apparently Meryl doesn’t fall in the women should be believed column.

Agreed. The reporting is beyond lazy, to the point of making this post intellectually incoherent.

Yey, that seems to be in really poor taste. Why does it always come back to the women being more at fault than the men? It ALWAYS rebounds onto women. Like it was Meryl Streep’s personal responsibility to take Harvey Weinstein aside and reprimand him.

Blaming women for men’s crimes. That’s exactly it.

Legit confused about that section of the post. The author of one of the tweets proudly describes herself as“anti-feminist” in her bio. Why is she being supported on Jezebel?

Same. Would that vitriolic wrath directed at her was converted into real action against the actual abusers...

That surprised me as well. He isn’t even skilled. All the ones I ever see are just lazy knockoffs of some street art tumblr. I think he did that shitty one of Ted Cruz as a skinhead or something, too.

Those posters made me seethe. She might have known. I personally think it’s feasible she didn’t (too high up the food chain) but she wasn’t the abuser and it makes my blood boil when people will find a reason, any reason, to somehow blame women for men’s crimes.

Why exactly is Jezebel promoting the Trump supporter who made the Meryl Streep posters?

I live in my fiance’s deceased grandfather’s house, with my fiance, two dogs, and my fiance’s deceased grandfather and potentially another spirit. Just last night my dog sat up on the couch and started barking and growling at the ceiling, looking from the fan in the center of the room to the kitchen door with all his…
