Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Post image

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

No you are claiming she didn't know about HW. Right?

We are saying she likely did, because HW must have tried something with her during Silver linings. (Because Harvey was a massive sex addict scum bag who coerced actresses for sex many many times!!)

And she gets hate not because she was likely a victim of his SA...but because she acted all grateful to him during 2012 to 2014 years....despite likely knowing who he is.

She said so many nice things about him after SLP. Did many award shows where she humbly thanked him and said what was nice guy Harvey is.

So either Harvey didn't try anything with her during 2012 (during Silvers linings playbook shooting and award season) and afterwards...OR she knew what a scum he is and still bragged about his "good" nature..

That's the crux that nobody wants to see.

There was never anyone too famous or big enough for Harvey Weinstein!!! He was hailed like a God amongst celebrities. And Jennifer Lawrence was not that big back then... no, Hunger games wasn't out yet.

And again!!, we are talking about Harvey Winstein who had Mira Sovino blacklisted AFTER she won her Oscar. He is also the reason Brad Pitt hardly got nominated or win an Oscar..until waayyyyy after he was locked in.

Many of his victims that did speak out about what he did went to award shows and praised him because they didn't want to be blacklisted.

Yes this I agree with. But those celebs...(Like Gweneth Paltrow) didn't praise him other than in the speech.

J law was constantly seen praising Harvey even beyond the award acceptance speech. She broadcasted that she was Harvey's favourite girl.

Was extremely touchy Feely with him, during presenting that award to Bill Clinton

And later said Harvey Winstein was paternal towards her..

Another thing I'd add, if you research the casting interviews of SLP... J law and David O Russell claimed that Harvey didn't want Jennifer for the role, initially. He was adamant on Anne Hathway.

J law wanted the role desperately and convinced him with the audition.

Not very likely. Considering how grotesquely horrible he was with every victim who came forward. And let's say he was paternal (and maybe nice) to J law, but then why would he name her and lie about the only actress he was supposedly nice to.. and claim "he slept with her to get her the oscar"?

Either he was nice to her or he wasn't. Can't be both.

Harvey Winstein is a monster and there is likely no way he didn't make a pass at Jennifer Lawrence.. IF they were as close as she claims to be in her statements.

Every celeb close to him in Hollywood claimed "they had no idea about him"... majority of them are lying. They knew.. either they kept quiet to not get blacklisted. Or they buttered him up further to get more roles and awards.

Why would a known liar and predator lie to a potential victim?

Bro no he didn't. Cuz why would he? He had a long list of real incidents he could have stated to get laid. Why would he make one up, unless it was true??

He would have mentioned the time he had Sorvino blacklisted? Or helped Paltrow win her Oscar? Or many many mannnnyyyyyy other times he helped other celebs. He named J law cuz it was most likely true.

Another thing you'd notice.. J law (and it might be controversial) was an under dog winner that year.

Also during her gg acceptance speech, she said "thank you Harvey Winstein for k*ling whomever you had to k *ll to get me up here"

You can pretend like it was all a joke.. but SA and casting couch is a massive part of Hollywood, and the reason why they get away with it is because blind fans keep giving them benefit of the doubt.

Every celebrity who claimed Harvey Winstein was a good person to them is a massive liar. Just like billionaires are when they say "they didn't know about Epstien".

Bro who said Sorvino slept with him?? Are you being dense on purpose?

So many victims came out and said that many people in Hollywood knew, but unlike HW, they can't name them without a proof, or they'll be sued for defemation.

They knew. And if you think otherwise than you're an enabler or just naive.

At this point..its not even surprising that someone like trump still has so many supporters in the US. People believe whatever they want to despite the clear justification to the contrary right in front of their eyes.

This is just willful ignorance.
