There's a lot of corruption in government and big institutions like Hollywood. Everyone knows that. There are fixers who donate to key people to keep their clients out of jail, or who threaten witnesses to make them quiet.
It's practically begging to be exposed.
But it takes a major event to disturb the status quo and get people to start talking about it.
I think -- or at least hope -- that the Harvey Weinstein bombshell is going to have enormous collateral damage and be the size of scandal that actually gets written up in future high school history books, like Teapot Dome.
From my perspective
It's already funny to see Hollywood ripping itself open over their knowledge of this situation; see McGowan's contempt for Affleck for his handling of the situation
Rose McGowan Attacks Ben Affleck Over Harvey Weinstein: 'You Lie'
You see actresses flipping their stance from defending Weinstein two days ago, to participating in the required Two Minute Hate today (Streep). Following the 1984 theme, Hollywood is already trying to Memory Hole Weinstein by taking his name off multiple credits...thereby hiding the fact that THEY THEMSELVES KNEW OF HIS SERIAL ASSAULTS AND DID NOTHING IN ORDER TO LINE THEIR OWN POCKETS!
Don't forget Hollywood pedophilia
One of the big Hollywood "heroes" is Roman Polanski, who drugged and raped a 14 year old, then fled to the protection of Europe. Nor should we forget the rings of complicity...
An Open Secret: A Documentary on Hollywood Pedophilia
And back to the Democrats...
Forget for a moment Bill Clinton's long history of sexual abuse of women, or his son-in-law's jail term for online molestation of a teen, or Melendez and trips to "Pedo Island"...
Let's look at Weinstein's activities as a bagman (financier) of Democrat Party activities...
Cyrus Vance Jr. received $10,000 from Harvey Weinstein's lawyer David Boies shortly after his office declined to prosecute Weinstein. FYI.

Will no one rid this country of these foul parasites?
The tag
The tag #informationwar, and posts that would be classified under that tag include methods of Information War, Propaganda, and Disinformation. The discussion would include governmental doctrine, historical application, Information War on the spectrum of warfare modes, recognition of fakenews, public OSINT, the concept of a Deep State and reaction to it, and critical thinking in analyzing these concepts.
By necessity, conspiracy theory can be discussed under this tag as they often address what many view as Deep State disinformation; this means that discussion of PizzaGate could fall under this discussion. However, I don't want to make this type of discussion the focus of the tag, but rather discussing these issues in terms of method
The ultimate purpose of my focus on InformationWar is to provide you with the tools to defend liberty within this mode of war.

As a father of four daughters it sickens me reading stories like this, this is an example of a poor excuse for a man. A real man doesn't use his position or power, either physical or emotional, as a tool to aid in rape.....a real person doesn't do that, for this problem exists on both sides of the gender line.
Harvey Weinstein is the face, but this is a problem in most societies, it is also unacceptable. Just my opinion

very true. In the case of Hollywierd, though, it seems to me to be the cultural norm.

All true - but let us not fall for the DIVIDE ET IMPERA trap of the concucted left-righ paradigm. Republicans have grave yards in the closet just as much - tho the powers that should not be have cultivated that sickness more prominently in the everything goes misgudided so called progressive culture of the enemies of humanity,

it is not the left/right continuum that is a construct but rather the idea that the republican party adheres to the ideas of the Right (liberty)
see
https://steemit.com/politics/@stevescoins/what-is-leftism-what-is-rightism-why-are-there-so-many-different-interpretations
the people that are leftist are always going to be looking at ways to groupherd the rest of humanity, no matter what the label is. this goes past politicians, and down to basic human needs of security/conformity.
and yes, the republican party is just as corrupt as the democrat party. they weren't as treasonous until the globalists took over the party leadership.
like the democong, the repukes' treason has accelerated recently as they felt the opportunity window closing.
now, hopefully, the only thing that closes for the lot of them is a noose around their necks

Human nature is on one hand corrupt, and on the other complacent.
It really depends on the level of effort that the relatively small proportion of honest AND effecient people put into fighting it

If Pedophilia is an Apropos to This "He said she said" then they have beaten the crap out of you at any "informationwar", or what is "a major event to disturb the status quo and get people to start talking about it.", if pedophilia wasn't.
You've already judged and sentenced them, classic Critical Thought fail.
