Hollywood Hypocrisy is Infinite
What Will Smith has done at the Oscars is the cherry on top of the hypocrisy of Hollywood. Not to mention he partied hard with all his collegues afterwards as if nothing happened.
But let’s talk about something more serious. Will Smith crossed the line but unfortunately he did it in front of the whole world.
People like Harvey Weinstein, Roman Polanski did it behind closed doors. But what they have done was much worse. And more disgusting, just because can’t see it, it does mean it’s not that there.
Let’s start with Harvey Weinstein. In May 2018 Weinstein was arrested in New York and charged with rape and other sexual assaults. He was sentenced to 23 years of imprisonment so basically we’re talking about first class criminal. You don’t imprison anyone for 23 years if you don’t have good enough reason.
Of course The Academy expelled Weinstein and everybody was saying they had no idea about rapes or anything like that. Quentin Tarantino wouldn’t maybe have a career without Weinstein.
