“Women who accepted financial settlements from Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein to keep quiet about alleged sex harassment or assault may have delayed justice.”

I hate Baldwin, but in this case he’s right. Instead of arguing the point he’s making, the women start the name calling including the obligatory misandrist “mansplaining”. I love seeing this match as I hope both sides lose!

Mansplainers everywhere are saddened at the rebuke delivered to Alex Baldwin by Rose McGowan (Paige Matthews, half-sister of the Halliwell Sisters of “Charmed”).

Rose McGowan is a ballbuster in any venue.

Baldwin might be right, but he is also wrong.

That the women settled their cases, does not excuse the wrongdoing by Weinstein, no matter how much was paid to settle and no matter what career benefits were handed out in exchange to keeping quiet or "allowing" the abuse.

If somebody was raped 20 years ago, and settled for a few million and/or a couple of movie roles, that DOES NOT CHANGE the fact that the rape occurred and that it was a felony.

There is no kind of defense that can undo the felonies committed, and Baldwin should be excoriated as harshly as can be done. Perhaps he can "settle" his stupidity with the women he's claiming are "mansplaining" now?

If I had to choose between McGowan and Arec Barwin, I’ll take Arec for a thousand, Alex. At least he isn’t boring like she is.
