So we can put celebrities in prison for rape?
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo........
If only every rapist and abuser was punished too.
Now do Trump!
What a shitty way to throw away a life that’s handed to you on a golden platter.
Fucking awful person.
Tell me about it. He was the most popular character in a wildly successful sitcom, and then transitioned from TV star to a successful DJ in an era where no one makes it big as a DJ anymore.
Bro was living my dream, and he had to go and fuck it all up by being a rapist. He should have listened to Conan.
“To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women!”
Not that Conan, asshole. 😂
We get it. You meant Conan the Librarian.

I know it’s not about sex, but about power. But in his position, he almost certainly had many willing women throwing themselves at him, and he felt the need to rape people?
Like I said, it’s about power, not sex, but he also had a tonne of power. Why do this, given all that? The fuck is so broken about this fucker that all the free sex and so much career power wasn’t enough?
What did Conan say?
Why are you asking people to [touch your balls]? That's the more important question. Accidents aside, that's the more important thing. I've heard about you, and you'll be caught soon; I know you will.

Excuse my surprise here. I know nothing about this case. I never saw the tv show and don't know this person. But, I am so surprised this rich famous guy gets 30 years when my entire 50 plus year life has been constantly peppered with stories of randos getting community service and probation for raping women, and even children. More than one of them have recieved supreme court appointments. What percent of convicted rapists get sentenced to 30 years or more in the USA? I asked AI and it claims less than 4%. Was he not in the right frat or something? Like, remember Brock the fratboy who raped an unconcious woman in a dumpster enclosure and got let off? I don't understand what goes on, and I don't trust it. That symbol of blind justice has a terrible conotation in this context.
I'm perhaps being too edgy, forgive me. But, you must see that even if this guy deserves 30 years, which I am not disputing. How is there such a wild variance in American "Justice" ? Its just wild to me.
Excuse me but you should never mention brock turner without the asshole judge Aaron perskey who let him off with the "boys will be boys" rhetoric. Or Dan Turner his gross dad who wrote the letter about how "his son's future is ruined".
These are the poster children of empowered toxic masculinity.
Anyone ever need a perfect example of unchecked white male privilege just need to look at these three fuckwits.
Brock Allen Turner goes by "Allen Turner", just in case anyone wanted to know.
Alan Turner, the rapist? The Stanford swimmer who raped someone? That Alan?
I've just checked and in Spain maximum jail time for rape with aggravating circumstances is 15 years. People usually get ~20 years for manslaughter. He was found guilty of 2 counts of rape and got 30 years to life. I'm as baffled as you are.

a few years ago, he gained more noteriety than he should he was intially charge, the moment he was found guilty ASTHON kutcher and milas kunis immediately went on camera to VOUCH for him.
That's not why he was convicted as a famous rich white guy, that was just some lifelong friends standing by him. They didn't deny his guilt, they just asked for leniency for their friend, which was rejected.
He was found guilty because the judge didn't let it be about his celebrity, OR his membership in Scientology. He was treated like any other citizen accused of multiple rapes. That's how it should be for every citizen.
He must not have had any dirt on anyone powerful. A lot of people who were going to Epstein's Island or his parties weren't necessarily pedophiles. They just wanted to be part of his circle enough to not not care about the rape. They wanted to be trusted by his circle and the method of binding those people together was sharing in crimes and have blackmail on each other. I'm guessing that Masterson never got into one of those circles, so no one powerful ever made any phone calls to the investigators or judge on his behalf.

Another reminder that aside from Topher Grace, the rest of the cast all stood behind Danny when the rape allegations first came out.
Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher stood by him after he was convicted.

Ashton is a pedo are you surprised
Wait what? Honestly i did not keep up with any of the cast
Waiting for the Olsen twins and Hilary Duff to turn 18. Now for what it's worth, Eminem said the same in a song.

On "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" in 2002, Kutcher himself would admit, "She was 14 when we started the show. I was, like, 19, right? And they're like, 'Okay, you guys are going to be making out in this scene,' and I'm thinking, like, 'Wait, this is slightly illegal, right?'" Despite these reservations, Kutcher said that he had attempted to "French kiss" Kunis during the scene
In an episode of "Hot Ones" from 2019, Kutcher was asked to share anything he could about the famous parties Diddy threw. Kutcher said, "I've got a lot I can't tell,"

everybody likes that
Other than a bunch of his co-stars on that 70s show.
The actress that played Kitty Foreman was so impressed that he made the other teenaged stars make a pact to stay away from weed that she's willing to forgive a little rape. Which also checks out for the type of person he seems to be: very vocally "good" but a real piece of shit behind closed doors. It's all PR.
The actor that played Red Foreman thinks someone taking a leadership role amongst the group should forgive a bit of rape. Makes me wonder if it was more of a fucked up dynamic because that also fits the type that I've seen, but there was also a lot of money and a contract keeping them together, which gives that type power.
Though Jackie and Micheal (can't remember what the rest of them called him) also thought his rape wasn't that bad.
I can't find any evidence that Topher Grace (Eric), Laura Prepon (Donna), or Wilmer Valderrama (Fez) ever supported him after the allegations came out. I wonder if they appreciated his "leadership" as much as the old ones did or started to see through him while they were still filming the show.
there is a whole IMDB website of actors who still support Masterson. Kutcher and Kunis top of that list. They never mention any victim.

His presence really ruins That 70's Show rewatches.
The age old question, can you separate the art from the artist? Very philosophical and never an easy one.
If information wants to be free, and if buying not equaling owning means that piracy isn't theft, then art doesn't belong to artists anyway. Additionally, it's facile to be too black-and-white about crime; criminals are still humans and being shit in one aspect of their lives doesn't necessitate that we act as if they were shit in EVERY aspect of their lives. Even criminals still bleed when pricked and laugh when tickled, etc. If we reject the possibility of redemption/rehabilitation, then we might as well execute all criminals. Now, that's not to say that we should simply forgive every criminal. But rehabilitation only works when it focuses on reminding the criminal of how they can still be useful to society.
I read a very interesting book on this topic, Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma by Claire Dederer. It doesn’t really give a general answer (arguably impossible anyway), but it was a fascinating exploration of the dilemma.
Personally, I veered all the opposite way - now I avoid entertainment in general out of ethical principle, save for very counted exceptions, because 1. people are generally easy to corrupt, so even someone generally regarded as clean can get cancelled at any point in the future, and 2. the entertainment industry has made it their modus operandi to never separate the art from the artist, therefore making the industry in general more and more morally corrupt. And since checking every single individual credit on every single individual work of entertainment in order to avoid supporting immoral people is prohibitively time-consuming, it has become stochastically immoral to have fun. Most people refuse to accept it though, and that's precisely on what the industry counts to keep things under wraps for as long as possible.
