Hollywood, heal thyself

I'm probably the last one here that listened to it, but the Uncover podcast on the NXIVM cult was fascinating.

Super crazy stuff. The guy doesn’t seem all that charismatic but he certainly got some successful people under his spell.

Ha. Commando. You might want to pick another battle to fight.

I know-- it's difficult to get the Fox News crowd to understand why that's such a dumb pejorative. I don't care about Avenatti and may be the world's biggest scumbag for all I know, but that's such a Donald Trump name to call somebody. :crazy:

So far there’s nothing creepier about him than Trump.

Bump. Remember when frank complained that Fox News was treating Avenatti unfairly? And Commando.

lol What did I say about him? That Fox News treated him unfairly? I just love pointing out how rich it is that Fox News calls an attorney a pejorative - "creepy"- just for representing a porn star- never mind the celebrity who was raw- dogging said porn star while his wife was pregnant/caring for their infant son. Nothing creepy about him, though- right, Walter?

Exactly that. All Walter had to was reread the posts to comprehend that, but the poor guy got worked up with excitement about the gotcha game.

Also, do you remember when Walter criticized those defending Trump? Me neither.

lol obviously the only reason Avenatti was getting slammed and attacked before his crimes came out is because he was suing Trump and that hurts some people's feelings. And now that he's been accused or charged with crimes they are all SEE? WE TOLD YOU!! Told me what? That you didn't like him and that he was a piece of shit? That was only because he insulted Donald Trump and you had to cape for him Captain Save A Ho style.

I don’t recall any criticisms about his business practices by Fox News etc or Ted’s Twitter at the start of it all. Do you? The “creepy” label came from his working for s porn star.

[Bo Diddley]

I love the Trump memes. He really is a cartoon in real life.

[Commando]

No. Pretty sure that was it. I mean, he had already been wearing his freedom fighter schtick thin and inserting himself into hints of him running for president as a guy that could back Trump into a corner, but being a blowhard doesn't get you the kind of negative attention from Fox that attacking Trump does.

Exactly. The idea is that some lying whore teamed up with a lying scumbag to lie about the Beneficent Donald Trump and bring him down. What a Creepy Porn Lawyer!!!

You’re struggling with reading comprehension here. Where do you see me defending his extortion and stealing? I’ve called him a conman and slimy. I’m only taking issue with those who say the designation of “creepy porn lawyer,” didn’t happen as a result of him representing Daniels. It wasn’t because of his financial crimes. The criminal stuff didn’t make it into the news until after he had already been called “creepy porn lawyer,” by creepy right wing personalities like Tucker Carlson.
