Olivia Munn had a bit of a rough weekend and I guess that had me thinking about her and I want to show my support? I mean, I don’t post people here to show support but I can’t post her without mentioning it. Some people seem genuinely confused and I get why. I am a person who believes in forgiveness and I believe in second chances. That should be said. So I understand the impulse that I keep seeing from men which is essentially, “Well, there has to be a route back from a mistake”. Or some version of that. I get the impulse. I think if you are one of those people it is likely even coming from a good place. But the problem here is that it seems all your empathy is only going towards men. And you might not think so because I don’t think anyone sets out to do that. I don’t think you are sitting down and saying I only care about men but it is how it appears if you step back and look objectively. Because women were victims of these men and women have suffered and yet somehow the conversation is about what can we do for these men. I don’t like revenge. And eye for an eye is never actually justice. So understand that I am not calling fro the victimizer to suffer the same as the victim or anything like that but it can be important to think for a moment. Women have had lives and careers ruined. Black balled, forced out of the industry. Forever. So when I hear the argument that a guy has a right to a living it rings hollow. Not because I think he should suffer as much as his victims in some tit for tat sense but because no one is saying he can’t work. They are saying maybe he can’t work in this job. And it’s hard to both feel bad for him but also it’s hard to see how the concern is about his livelihood. I don’t see the same people saying people need to let the victims who have been cost work to be given jobs. So if you are someone who doesn’t get why people aren’t seeming forgiveness try to look at it from that angle. I think it would be helpful. Also it can be important to remember that forgiveness and redemption are different things. Forgiveness is personal and I don’t think it can or should be earned. You don’t make someone earn your forgiveness. It’s a gift you give them because they need it to be whole again. You are helping that person move forward. And that is between you and another person. Redemption is public and it is earned. And it’s ok to make someone earn that. That is not a cruelty, that is a matter of assurance that this person really is contrite and really has grown. The thing to remember here regardless is that Olivia Munn is a woman who indeed faced sexual harassment in her career and was not comfortable working with a child predator. So she said something. To make her a villain is shocking to me. I am not sure why she would be expected to swallow her tongue when the whole lesson we should have learned here is that we need to stop expecting people without the power to just take it for the sake of those with power. The biggest industry criticism seems to be she shouldn’t have made this public and gone thought he ‘proper’ channels. Which is how we got to the shit point. It’s ridiculous. So I guess I wanted to say that, which is unrelated to why I am posting her but needs to be said because I am posting her. I am posting her because I think she is very funny and very beautiful. Today I want to fuck Olivia Munn.
