re: Chris Hardwick #metooed in a big way.

As a general rule, I just don't give a shite about famous people's private lives. I'll make an exception clearly for things like Kevin Spacey or Roman Polanski, but by and large, I don't care.
So... let's just do a quick thought experiment and take everything she says at face value. I do think Hardwick's texts show there are two versions of the truth but let's even put that to the side... believe her story in its entirety. OK?
Now, question one: who gives a frick? I mean, so Hardwick sounds like a bad boyfriend and a controlling piece of garbage. So what? What does that have to do with anything? Like, I'd tell my sister not to date him, but that's not actually gonna happen. Does a guy deserve to have his career destroyed (and like Cocomo, I pretty much hate Chris Hardwick and would have no problem if he fell off the earth tomorrow) because he's a crappy boyfriend? Nothing he did was illegal or immoral. He was just an a-hole. And that's if we take her story 100% at face value with no chance to rebut.
The part about her story that made me uncomfortable is when she hints how terrible the new girlfriend is and that she is also an evil lying liar who lies. Are we supposed to totally ignore she tries to character assassinate the Other Woman? And she does admit to cheating which, again, I don't give a shite about. But I don't think anyone should have their career destroyed for their private dating life, unless they are doing something illegal. Kevin Spacey absolutely deserves to have his public career destroyed. So does Bryan Singer.
But Chris Hardwick? I mean, he deserves to have his career destroyed because he sucks, but not for this. He's an insecure a-hole and a bad boyfriend. I don't care. Neither should anyone else.

Exactly. That's what I don't like about all this. Even if 100% true, so what? How many celebrities do you think are assholes to their girlfriends? Probably lots, but why should that impact their career?

Like I said earlier, do people really want to go down this road?
I’d ask the feminist out there, do you really want sexual assault to include power dinamtics in a committed relationship? What about withholding it? Is that not abusive?
