Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Black male celebrities doing shit things to women always face waaaaay more backlash than white male celebrities do. See: Chris Brown v. Sean Penn on smacking women around and a zillion other examples.
It's always kind of conflicting when I see famous black men get dragged over the coals for their actions the way famous white men never do. On the one hand, finally an appropriate degree of outrage towards violence and assault on women! On the other hand, degree only reaches appropriate level because of systemic racism! Intersectionality at its worst.

From: (Anonymous)For sure. If OJ had been white and gotten away with it the same way, I wouldn't have been surprised if murdering his wife had been brushed under the rug by this point and he'd have been welcomed back into polite society. I mean jesus christ, look at how far people bend over backwards when it comes to pedophile scum like Roman Polanski and Woody Allen.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Yes! Not to mention Phil Spector. He's in prison now, but 1) people used to defend him to my face, when the violence stuff was "rumors" and not an actual criminal investigation, 2) people still defend his previous work and call him a genius. Still! Our perception of guilt and of...let's call it moral culpability, absolutely bends based on race. See also Madelyn saying maybe Kane didn't realize the woman "wasn't appreciating proceedings" or whatever it was she said. If, say, Evander Kane were facing the same accusations, I kind of doubt people would be working to come up with accidental rape scenarios.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)lol if it had been the better Kane in the same situation he'd be serving 2-5 by now.
I say lol to mask the crippling gloominess that just followed that thought process. I want more accountability for men's crimes against women, sure. But I sure as hell don't want it like that.
