I Ain't One To Gossip But ...

One-time Smallville actress turned big-time sex trafficker and NVIWM cult recruiter, Allison Mack, cooperated with the government and pleaded guilty in 2019 to helping Keith Raniere run a sex cult masked as a women’s empowerment group. Raniere was found guilty of racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy, forced labor conspiracy, sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy, and attempted sex trafficking and sentenced to 120 years. Allison Mack is now asking for no punishment of her own in exchange for all the “help” she gave in convicting Raniere.

All that’s nice, Allison, but you’re an admitted sex trafficker, who abused, tortured, and branded—yes, actually physically with a hot branding iron—branded women as slaves to Raniere. And you need to be punished for that, or else it looks like you can be a vile disgusting human people who sells women in sex slavery and beats and tortures women, but if you help put the big boss away you get a pass.

No, honey, not today.

UPDATE: Mack was sentenced to three years in prison.

Speaking of three years … octogenarian rapist Bill Cosby was freed from prison this week and depending which side of drugging women and raping them—some fifty women ALLEGEDLY—you’re either angry or you’re elevated.

And color one Phylicia Rashad elevated, because she wasted no time at all in celebrating Cosby’s release, Tweeting:

“FINALLY!!!! A terrible wrong is being righted- a miscarriage of justice is corrected!”

Look, I get she worked with him; I get she liked or admired or trusted him, but at least fifty women say he drugged them and raped them and fifty women are not wrong. But, yes, one of the few women he

PS: in the three years Bill “Rapist” Cosby was in prison his wife never once visited. He says it’s because he didn’t want her to see him in behind bars, but still; three years without a visit? Sounds like the Missus was quite happy he was “away.”

Rapist.

PPS: Rashad is now backtracking on her cheers for C\the rapist being freed, saying:

“I fully support survivors of sexual assault coming forward. My post was in no way intended to be insensitive to their truth. Personally, I know from friends and family that such abuse has lifelong residual effects. My heartfelt wish is for healing.”

Um, Phyl, honey? You said a “terrible wrong was righted” which utterly sounds like you believe the rapist and not his fifty-something victims of sexual assault.

Take a seat Karen.

If you go online you can find thousands of videos of Karens causing havoc, and thousands more of Karens causing havoc over not wearing a mask; and thousands more of Karens causing havoc by not wearing masks on an airplane.

Amirite Chris Kattan? The former SNL ‘star’ was ALLEGEDLY booted from an American Airlines flight for refusing to wear a mask.

Sadly, like Kattan’s career of late, no one filmed it.

That’s all.

God Madonna is thirsty for attention, when she should really be thirsting for Medicare and a spot at an assisted living facility. I ain’t saying the bitch is old, but … okay, she’s old …and thirsty.

After Lil Nas X ended his BET Awards performance with a hot kiss with one of his male dancers, Madonna went nuts on social media, and posted a photo Lil Nas’ kiss with his dancer alongside the one of her kissing Britney Spears with the caption:

“#diditfirst.”

Um, Madge? It’s slightly different for a fame obsessed vocally challenged white girl singer to deep throat another fame obsessed vocally challenged white girl singer, even in 2003 than it is for an openly gay Black man to kiss another man onstage. And this wasn’t even the first time a gay man kissed another man during a live performance; that was Adam Lambert several years ago, but …

It’s a very different thing that you did, compared to what both Lambert and Nas did, so you aren’t the first.

You're just the thirstiest hag still feeling the need for attention.

An Open Letter To Phylicia Rashad

Did you ever hear the expression, ‘Sometimes it’s best to say nothing’? I wish you had because maybe then you would have kept quiet, rather than coming out in support of ALLEGED serial rapist Bill Cosby.

Sure, you can support your friend; you can say you are shocked to hear these stories; you can say this doesn’t sound like the man you know. But what you cannot, and should not, say is that this never happened, and especially not for the ludicrous reasons you give.

You said, and I’ll quote:
“What you’re seeing is the destruction of a legacy. And I think it’s orchestrated. I don’t know why or who’s doing it, but it’s the legacy. And it’s a legacy that is so important to the culture.”
So, you’re just gonna toss out a conspiracy theory with absolutely nothing to back it up? Not so bright, Phylicia. And why, why, would nearly thirty women, over the course of forty-some-odd years, who don’t know one another, suddenly gather now to destroy the legacy of a TV star? What do they gain by that?

Nothing; nothing except having their voices heard, their accusations levied.

You said all of this is being done to keep him off television — Cosby had a new TV deal in the works before these dozens of women came forward which has since been canceled — but if that’s the story, then why didn’t these women come forward back in his 1980s heyday with their ‘lies’? Why now, is what I’m asking? Why would a woman say that Cosby raped her in the 70s … in the 80s … in the 90s … wait twenty, thirty, forty years to come forward? What do they have to gain?

Nothing; nothing except having their voices heard, their accusations levied.

And I am not saying he’s guilty, though I am saying that once nearly thirty women come forward with nearly identical tales of being drugged and raped by Bill Cosby, his innocence seems slightly tarnished; I do believe in innocent until proven guilty but since he’ll never have to face his accusers, and since he refuses to even speak about it, do we just look the other way and pretend these women don’t exist?

But you don’t stop there, with talk of legacies and conspiracies, you take the ridiculousness up a notch by claiming that, while working with Cosby, you never saw any sign of this type of behavior from him. Well, Phylicia, did you expect? Do you think he would have brought these women onto the set of The Cosby Show and drugged and raped them in front of everyone? Rapists hide; rapists lie; rapists deceive. They don’t declare to their co-workers that they spent the weekend trying to drug Beverly Johnson so they could forcibly rape her.
And then you appeared on Good Morning America and continued to put your foot in your mouth. You said Bill Cosby could not do those things because he’s an intellectual.

So, smart men don’t rape?

You said he couldn’t do it because he’s generous.

So, men who give of their time and money cannot force themselves on women?

I understand you are trying to stand up for your friend, but you need to realize your arguments are lame. No one is trying to tarnish his legacy; not one woman said, back in the 70s, Hmmm, I’ll wait until 2014 and then I’ll say Cosby raped me just so they could ruin his reputation. That’s ridiculous.

Also ridiculous is the way you oh so subtly blame the victims — I’m not talking about your “Forget those women” comment … I’ll get to that in a minute — and yet simply ignore the fact that there must be some shred of truth when thirty women step forward and tell the same story of how they met Cosby, what he said to them, where he took them, what he did to them, and what he said to them after.

Thirty women cannot be wrong; not all of them.

Now, I’ll back you up on this, because, in your statement, you said, and again I quote in full, about Beverly Johnson and Janice Dickinson specifically:
“Forget these women. What you’re seeing is the destruction of a legacy. And I think it’s orchestrated. I don’t know why or who’s doing it, but it’s the legacy. And it’s a legacy that is so important to the culture.”
You didn’t mean to literally forget them, you meant to take them out of the equation so you could show off your conspiracy theory about a shadowy someone trying to ruin Cosby’s legacy. But you are being rude, and shaming, to these women when you say Bill Cosby couldn’t have done these things because he’s smart, philanthropic and never did it in front of you.

Stand up for your friend, if you will, but bear in mind there has to be a grain of truth, or perhaps an entire sand dune of truth, in the stories. Stand up for your friend, but take a minute to stop and think about why, why, these women would do this now, and why, why, Bill Cosby won’t answer his accusers. Stand up for your friend, but realize that when you do, you are also saying that these thirty women ... and counting ... are all liars.

Then take a seat.
