National Review reports what everyone knows. Hollywood Is a Sex-Grooming Gang
If you’re tempted to turn away from the torrent of squalid news that continues to flow out of Hollywood, resist the temptation. The more of these revolting exposes you read, the more clearly you will see the underlying monstrosity in Hollywood, as clearly as the hero of John Carpenter’s They Live sees aliens disguised as everyday people when he puts on the sunglasses.
From former CBS chief Les Moonves, to Weinstein, and a few in between. Descriptions of what young actresses were put through. The penalty for not "getting with the program was having your career destroyed.
They knew. They all knew. The men knew. The women knew. The potted plants certainly knew. Nobody said anything. They didn’t want to jeopardize their next gig. “Nobody says anything” is more like it. It’s show-merta. “Hollywood mafia” isn’t a joke anymore: These acts alleged by so many actresses are crimes. This was a systematic criminal enterprise in which untold numbers of people either abetted felonies or did not report them, with money clawed away from publicly traded corporations repeatedly used to buy silence.
This joke from Seth MacFarlane is telling. That he would say this at the Academy Awards ceremony and only get nervous laughter is sad.
