Eh, fuck him for his continued support of a homophobic church, but I dont get seeking accountability for saying his daughter is healthy lol
I honestly didn't know there was, like, a person behind Barstool Sports. Apparently a really shitty person. Sounds about right.
The Business Insider article and the summary I read on Defector is a tough read. Unfortunately this will only push his popularity higher with the Barstool types.
“In fact, one could plausibly generalize by saying that millions of people in the United States had come to accept an idea formerly only popular among a few Marxists, namely that our figures of authority — the men who were in charge in our schools and offices, our leaders, the ones whom our mothers perhaps had deeply admired decades ago, the ones whose word could at one time never be questioned — may well have been brutes, and liars as well.” this is him describing the me too movement. “a few marxists” lmao fuck this guy
The stories about Hitchcock's mistreatment of female actors have been pretty well-known for some time. Any sort of abuse of power you see these days was much worse back then.
I get that it's hard not to venerate one of the founding fathers of cinema but I still find it icky that we do, personally I have no desire to watch his movies
Isn’t the story of Tippi and Hitchcock already established Hollywood lore at this point? Like it’s still a terrible story about what happened to her and it definitely needs to be told but I’m not quite sure why Dakota needs to drum it up for, it just feels rather unneeded imo.
Yeah I mean, it looks like the Acc. in Music thread is currently veering towards yet another "what is the purpose of this thread" conversation, but, i just don't think these threads should be dumping grounds for any old article about someone being shitty, no matter how recent or old. hitchcock, in this example, cannot be held accountable any longer for his actions.
