Breitbart ^ | 10-12-17breitbart | Bokhari

Actress Rose McGowan, one of the most vocal figures condemning disgraced Hollywood executive Harvey Weinstein over alleged sexual harassment, has turned her ire toward Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos. The actress, who was briefly suspended from Twitter yesterday evening, accused Bezos of “funding rapists, alleged pedos and sexual harassers” in a furious tweestorm. She also claimed to have told the head of Amazon’s studio that Weinstein had rap

“I dunno if they were into their flirty fishing routine at the time or if that came later.”

That came a bit later, the were just getting their act together in the late 60s. I ran into ‘em in the early 70s, nice people, but weird beliefs once you knew them a bit. Not a Californian (thankfully) :) but I’m reasonably knowledgeable on most cults.

You can read more about the COG at this site, run by ex-members. It has info about “Flirty Fishing” and other resources. The group still exists as “The Family International”, but they have supposedly given up their unsavory practices years back. “Moses David” is long since gone.

Bryan Singer directed a boy in Apt Pupil and that kid led a short, messed-up life. Homosexual Joel Schumacher directed Corey Haim—making his character in The Lost Boys an obvious gay—and we all know the life Haim lived. I can’t think of any child actors in any of Emmerich’s films (some in The Patriot, but I doubt it was safe to try anything with Mel around). Obviously, there’s no way to know if anything improper happened between these men and boys. Just food for thought.

Oh, there was some incredibly sick bastard who directed a film called Jeepers Creepers. He was in prison for what he did with one of the boys.

Whenever somebody says “I don’t care what they do in the privacy of their own bedroom”...the response:

You mean like raping kids?

I just found out that pig director of Jeepers Creepers was sentenced to a mere three years and served 15 months. He filmed himself raping a 12-year-old boy! And, it turns out this was before he made Powder, Jeepers Creepers, and his other Hollywood films. After his crimes were known, he made a movie starring Eric Roberts and Lance Henricksen. I’m disgusted by and immensely disappointed with Henricksen.

Man, that's a toughie. I know Bill is a bad actor, but damn. Does any man deserve such punishment?

Don't forget about the Depends (and the yeast infection)

I feel bad for a lot of the women.

Even if they willing slept on the casting couch, it’s not so easy to say no when everything you’ve ever dreamed of is within your grasp.

DOESN’T make it right. But you pay the price in LOSING YOUR MIND like so many female actresses do.

But i’ve always been a soft touch :)

As fr Harvey, #### him, I ALWAYS hated that SOB

They seemed cultish to me just from that first exposure. I don’t recall the particulars, but it was probably from how Moses David treated his flock. They looked pretty much like the crew attending the Calvary Chapel tent but Chuck Smith wasn’t running a cult

Yeah, Smith was pretty much mainstream evangelical, as are the Calvary bunch - he was just in the right place and time when the “Jesus Movement” happened, late 60s-early 70s.

This video can be considered NSFW or for kids, but only because some of the illustrations used in original “Moses David”s writings concerning the COG practice “flirty fishing” are not “appropriate”. It’s comprehensive, but short.
“What is Flirty Fishing?”

To think that McGowan and other kids had to grow up in such depravity masked as religion. I believe River Pheonix grew up with COG parents, also. Don’t really know much else about him, I don’t keep up with recent celebs, esp. dead ones that much. I’m more of a classics aficionado - Bogie, Audrey Hepburn (Kate Hepburn, too), etc and so on.

“I don’t think there’s a way to navigate rape that would be acceptable to much of anyone

great job Louis at attributing something truly hideous to someone that they did not say so you can puff and look heavenward

Did they let you have your pudding tonight....I sure hope so

I have someone I truly enjoy the company of who is a B level producer in Hollywood and has A list name recognition and ran number one a few years ago on TMZ and twitter due to his involvement in a super public triangle with an actress who was red hot coverage wise then

He knows his way around the Hills there

Very erudite and cultured

I called him today to bullchip about this very topic and to talk about my coming out before Christmas

His said the conventional wisdom was as follows out there

Harvey is a vile nasty sweaty stinky perv pig who nobody really likes

Harvey’s brother Bob is who is behind getting him out

Some of the same people now piling on were the same folks who let him ride if they got roles or made money

The homosexual exploitation is far more vile and pervasive

That women out there sleep with you so easily to get what they want that you are shocked when they don’t give a hint that’s on the table

And that Harvey raped and did pervy crap cause he liked it because tons of women would have did anything for help and he wouldn’t have had to force himself

My friend is a conservative leaning libertarian who is loving watch it all collapse

He is of the firm opinion you want a wife you go to the South or some other heartland environment

He is very jaded with women out there and lord have mercy he has squired some famous gorgeous women

I think the gold Hollywood offers especially for girls is not worth the price

“great job Louis at attributing something truly hideous to someone that they did not say”

We’re talking about what Weinstein did here, i.e. perversion and rape of those who felt were his inferiors. There’s just not enough polish in the world to cover that up.

You wrote:
“There is a way to seduce women from a position of power and treat them politely and fair and kindly and likely they will always speak of you with warm regard”

I would be interested in reading exactly how a person in power over another person would accomplish that without ending up in jail or on the wrong side of a lawsuit. Not to mention being warmly praised for doing it.

No offense Louie but if you think men who run film companies can’t squire actresses without it being rape oriented simply because they have a role the actress wants

Well I just don’t buy that

That sounds like something Dworkin or Faludi would say

I think Harvey liked brutalizing women cause he sure didn’t have to

My 60 years of which 25 were spent pursuing women

Women are attracted via several ways

They think you’re hot physically and want you .. which in mine and Harvey’s case...not likely

They love you or might learn to love you cause you have things they are attracted to like kindness and sense of humour and security or good genes. Or a good job ..go to where rich men live and count the ugly wives at Friday night high school football

You have something they want specifically and wil use their physical charms to get it

Its an old concept

And occasionally women are just horny right then and the guy just happens to be right place right time

Harvey did not have to assault or rape or force himself on women

There were more polite respectful ways to seduce women most decent men know inherently

I just saw “American Made” with a neighbor today. They must have run 10-15 trailers. On and on and on and on and on.

You should have seen the trailer for an upcoming Owen Wilson film and what they showed (acted/said) in that trailer. They truly have no shame at all. Not that we are surprised.

I’m sorry but we’re just not gonna agree on this. The idea of a guy coming up with ways - no matter how “nice” he thinks he’s being - to “bag the help” for a one off quickie is disgusting to my thinking.
We’re not talking about the owner of a shoe repair store and his gal bookkeeper falling in love, getting married and having 5 kids who all live happily ever after in a house surrounded by a white picket fence.
