You guys gotta stop buying the "Keanu is a saint" narrative. We've gone over this before:

REEVES: A part of me was afraid of my violent side. Once Hilary and I were improvising in a trailer. I just kept saying "You're lying. You're lying. You're lying." We were rehearing this argument, and Sam said, "Every time you say, 'You're lying,' instead of saying it, just hit her." Hilary was like, "No, Donnie, I wasn't-" [makes slapping noise] "Donnie, I wasn't-" [slaps] Sam was like, "Grab her face." This went on until finally I pushed her up against the wall and started taking her pants off. I stopped, but it was very scary. It was like, "Oh shit. Okay. Now I get it. I get it." It was very frightening.

PLAYBOY: Did it help Swank prepare for her role in Million Dollar Baby?

REEVES: [Laughs] Yeah. And by the way, I also learned a bit of... well, that some of the ladies don't mind it, so... Nah, that's awful to say.

This terrible. The article is short af btw.

The rest is:

"Of the recent shift in Hollywood in the wake of the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements, the “Skyfall” star said: “Men know that they absolutely cannot get away with things now that they wouldn’t even have thought about before.”

Based on this one quote, it *seems* like she recognizes it's not her fault which would be really nice.

And honestly Im sure lots of the times up ppl would defend/keep silent if she were to name a man that they liked or didn't want to challenge.

Black women are always thrown under the bus and im confident that her career would have come to a complete stop if she had spoken publicly about it when it happened.

To me it's weird when ppl (not here a much) make this shit out to be a holywood problem separate from regular ppl. The guy that abused me and aother loved one is living his life ok and most abusers of the ppl I know havent faced any consequences and still live their life just fine.

In light of Harvey Weinstein's life being "ruined," I have ( ... )

it's mind-fucky how that usually works.
men who actually did the shit go free.
(black and brown) men who are falsely accused of violence get the book thrown at them with 0 evidence.
