Reality TV or Court TV? Lawsuits Test Limits of Outrageous Behavior

Even though I don’t watch this show, I feel for this young man. To be grabbed like that is dehumanizing and leaves you feeling stunned and powerless in that moment. I can only imagine the added feeling of humiliation from it being simultaneously live-streamed.

Power's Michael Rainey Jr. Says He's 'Still Processing' After Being Sexually Assaulted on Livestream

 

Benoît Jacquot, Jacques Doillon Questioned On MeToo Allegations (deadline.com)

 

Neil Gaiman has been accused of sexual assault by 2 different women.

One allegation is by a former nanny accusing him of sexual assault and the other allegation is from a 18-year old fan accusing him of “rough and painful sex that she neither wanted nor enjoyed.”

This dude is just a monster.

 

Danity Kane's Dawn Richard Sues Sean 'Diddy' Combs for Sexual Battery and Assault https://t.co/5vBNrGSNlR

And now apparently, someone from Combs’ legal team is all over TikTok trying to diminish Richard’s allegations, claiming that Richard was vocally supportive of Combs just a few years ago. Richard’s lawyer is rebutting that claim, stating that there have often been cases where a victim feels obliged to work with her abuser.

Given the careers he gave and then took away, I am not surprised. He's always appeared very entitled and as if he feels he deserves the respect he is "entitled" to. Good on her and even Aubrey O'Day for continuing to speak out against this Evil Demon.

What didn’t he do? might be the easier question to answer.

I mean, this guy really wanted to be a mafioso. Sickening, but also confirmation of all the rumors over the years that people made jokes about:

In a way, this reminds me of Trump. When certain people get to a station in life where they believe they have been elevated to such a rarified air that they cannot be touched, their abuse of their status and other people will usually follow as a result. It’s about exploitation of their power and on other people. At a certain point, no one will tell them “no” because those people are gone for whatever reason, so they are surrounded by people who cater to their worst impulses. People may spin out eventually, while people like Combs and Trump become more vile with each passing year. 

Both Trump and Combs aspire to be mafiosos. Listen to the way they express themselves, the language they use. When you go back in each man’s personal history, each was far from the tough guy persona he tries to portray himself as being.

It makes me feel gross that I ever found him attractive. Imagine this lead to the truth of Biggie and 2Pac's deaths to come out, if speculation is to be believed. I wonder if Jennifer Lopez will ever have anything to say about this.

If you can stomach it.
