The 'Backlash' is starting.

[bellisarius]

Who didn't see this coming?

#MeToo backlash beginning.

 

[Saint Peter]

The memo thing?

Yeah.

Anybody could have seen that coming.

Good to see you're not just a die hard racist, but a misogynist as well.

They usually go hand in hand with homophobia tossed in for good measure.

Ish once told a story about a gay couple he spoke to in a restaurant, so I'm sure he'll say he's not homophobic.

The feminists put enough pressure on Formula 1 to get rid of the Grid Girls. the Grid Girls spoke out in there own defense stating they still wanted to work for Formula 1. They didn't want a small percentage to speak for them.

Whats sad if you talk to some of these ladies who work the various forms of motorsports they are not dumb.They are well educated. Some have other well paying jobs and this part time for the travel etc. Then others this was part time and turned into full time and led to other oppurtunities with other companies. These woman do these jobs by choice and for the benefits of the job.

I'm not sure what this has to do with women being sexually harassed.

Did he leave out where the conversation was him calling them fags and he had to scrub himself later because one of them almost touched him?

It amazes me that in this day and age and where we are as a society(yes liberals we have come a long way) that there are still men who are that frightened of gay men, like they're contagious or something.

Some clown asked me if I was gay once and I asked if he was king because he was interested.

"No, I just wanted to know, are you?"

"Take me to dinner and find out."

"Fuck you...no really, are you?"

"Gotta pay to play, sweetie, let's talk over drinks."

That was five years ago. I work with him and he has never said one word to me since unless he absolutely has to.

Of course me winking at him here and there doesn't help I suppose.

I think the point of #metoo is being missed. Its not about women choosing to use sex appeal to sell a product or themselves. Its about men forcing them into sex acts to keep or get a job an an entire industry that kept it quiet.

For me I won't be happy until the hypocrites after Weinstein, Simmons, Ratner and many others go after Tarentino who admitted he was well aware of what was going on. Now the Uma Thurman story is out about how he spit in her face and choked her on set as well as forced her to doa stunt that almost got her killed.

But...but we like his movies!

That to me is the backlash these self righteous little pukes all of a sudden losing their 'desire for justice' when its one of their heroes.

The ones who knew and could be proved to know belong in jail.

Oh, and that means you too Streep, sit your self righteous ass down with your full knowledge of your buddy Weinstein and applauding for Polanski who raped a minor. But she's another one that libs will never go after.

 

[adrina]

Tarantino is trash and his movies suck.

 

[bellisarius]

Good to see you're not just a die hard racist, but a misogynist as well.

And you're still a piece of shit.

Even if the childish names you call me were to be true, I can take classes, do some reading, change my mind and attitude.

But you? Shit is shit no matter what you do with it.

Here's the first class for free. Me calling you out for your belief that it's OK to deny rights to people based on the color of their skin or their gender doesn't make me the bad guy. It makes you the bad guy.

The sooner you accept that all people have rights, the happier you'll be.

Shades of "gay conversion therapy".

Uma lit into that dude and he had it coming. No fucks given.

This is good on you, but you do know that unpacking the highly toxic racist, misogynistic and homophobic attitudes that you've been raised in, grown up with and thrived in for decades upon decades like a layer cake is not just simply jazz-handed away by taking Tuesday and Thursday sessions at The Learning Annex doing tai chi and turning vegan.

If you're on a mission of self-improvement, however, I'll clap with two hands instead of one when I see you limping around the corner during the marathon, determined not to give up no matter what time you finally finish line. I promise, buddy.

Yes and it has become a big deal here in Montreal because we host Formula 1. There will be no more grid girls. Formula 1 stated that they no longer want to be associated with it. Times have changed.

On talk radio, they asked what is next?
Ring Girls
Cheerleaders (although that falls under a sport category) etc.

The spitting and choking were for the movie. Tarantino was the one off camera doing it instead of the actors. It's how they do it sometimes. She just lumped that in cuz of the car thing for reasons she didn't like for for a while. It was the car thing that was the real problem and can't really blame her.

 

[Rightguide]

The memo thing?

Yeah.

Anybody could have seen that coming.

Yep, it was only a matter of time before your side got called out for the corrupt treasonous subversives they are.

 

[pointless]

qt has always been an asshole, so i'm sadly not surprised by this.

i don't think this will stop me watching his movies, though. i'll just no longer feel slightly guilty about stealing them.

i know that's not exactly great, but i'd rather not lie about it. i mean, i still love rosemary's baby even though roman polanski is a human piece of shit and i still love the song a man needs a maid (and several other neil young and crazy horse songs) despite the fact that jack nitzsche literally raped a girl with a gun.

i know this is a very self centered take on the subject, but qt is one of the big reasons i truly started giving a shit about movies, the fucking prick.

Lots of great stuff was made by assholes. Never bothered me much. Don't have to like the person who made it.

 

[pointless]

it'd be nice if i could, though.

 

[BobaFetaCheese]

Yeah, same here but I'm still gonna watch Tarantinos movies and even a Tom Cruise one if it looks decent. Not gonna stop re-watching movies that Weinstein produced either.

Thankfully, the demographic that clings to a forlorn hope of a return to the Great White Patriarchy gets smaller each day. Modern medicine can only keep these political Neanderthals alive so long.
