I think WZ is trying to say that his experience as a Holocaust survivor may have brought on mental illness that could have contributed to his actions as an adult. All he is pointing out that there is nothing in Weinstein's past that could have caused his behavior.

agreed, WZ's comments did come off as excusing Polanski's rape of a 13 year old based upon his past life experiences. Sorry, but that excuse doesn't fly.

sorry but that doesn't fly. Plenty of Holocaust survivors out there who didn't drug and rape a 13 year old. Polanski is human trash.

It seems like just about everyone who read your post interpreted it as a defense of him or at least trying to explain his behavior so yeah maybe you might want to rephrase and revisit what you wrote on the previous page.

If you can't understand what I'm trying to say, you can ask. Not jump to shitty conclusions. I said that the two of them are in different places. I'm not saying one is better than the other. But I can at least see why Polanski would be fucked up enough to justify to himself in a fucked up way to do something like that. I can "see" it. I am not "condoning" it.

I have not excused him of anything. I always believed he should have had to face his crime.

You're providing justification for his actions though. You are trying to explain away what he did. It seems just about everyone reading this thread read that exactly as I did. I'd say TM went about it in a shitty way, but he and I were not the only ones who read your post in that manner.

We know about Polanski's past.

None of us are in a position to know everything about Weinstein's past.

I could be wrong, but I think WZ is saying it's okay to rape 14 year olds if you're a jew.

I disagree with GD, she was hot in the Deer hunter and more flix. Great actress, killed it in One true thing.

Makes you wonder if she has a "secret pact" with that pervert. I could say a lot of more nastier things but will leave it at that. Least we hope she cut all ties with that pervert.

I’m sure Meryl thinks the victims were no talent sluts who had no business in movies. I’m sure she doesn’t feel bad for any of them making a mockery of her art.

Yes, and your language implied that one place is not as bad as the other. Denying that doesn't help your case at all, come on.

If you really didn't mean to imply that one wasn't as bad as the other, why did you feel the need to differentiate one from the other? That's like saying "Gary Ridgway wasn't anywhere close to what Stephen Paddock was" and then pretending you just meant that one guy....did his deplorable deed differently? Again, the clear implication is that you were trying to excuse one person's actions because of their history with atrocities. Maybe it was just poor wording, but that's the plain reading of your words.
