He jerked himself off in front of a couple of women. It was defo inappropriate, but calling him a "predator" is fucking psychotic. Comparing him to rapists and predators like Weinstein or Diddy cheapens their crimes and invalidates the trauma they caused. It's like equating a petty thief with a health insurance CEO, or Al Frankens' "hover hands" to Trumps pedophilia and dozens of sexual assaults.
None of the hundreds of female comedians and actresses he's worked with have ever said he treated them inappropriately.
Wrong room.
We can compare apples to oranges because they're both fruits, but the phrase exists for a reason. This is a predominantly US community of which all are highly strung more than their usual shit right now, and you're coming in unusually hostile as though you have a stake in the matter of this specific subject.
Chill out. Doesn't mean you're wrong, but read the room and ask yourself if it's worth the energy. You wint
Edit: I mean, fuck. Look at my comment. And I was putting shit on the guy... They don't know what they want. Give em a few days.
fuck the room
