Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse case is over. He is convicted of committing a criminal sex
act in the first degree and rape in the third degree, but he is acquitted of
the more serious charges of predatory sexual assault and one count of
first-degree rape. He is sentenced to 25
years behind bar. Most likely he will
die in prison, either is bitten to death by inmates or die of old age. He
deserves the punishment.
Harvey Weinstein is a despicable man, , but he is not
unique. This individual exists everywhere.
I even recognize him in history, thousand years ago. He is timeless! Harvey Weinstein is a popular character
although not a likable one. Some people,
instead of distance themselves from him, choose to socialize with him, of
course, for selfish reasons; money and fame.
The two women accusers of Harvey Weinstein are no
exception. Their decision to tolerate
Weinstein’s abuses for years baffle many people, even the jurors. Their friendly e-mails exchanges were the
strongest defense used by Weinstein’s legal team. Should these women be held accountable for
their own action, or lack of? Are they
entirely innocent?
Harvey Weinstein has no power over anyone. When the two
women succumbed their will to fight against this evil man and endured his
unpardonable sins, continued to put up
with his sexual demands. The message
they sent to Harvey Weinstein was clear.
It convinced him that what he did was not wrong. He was given the permission to go on with his
demands. For him, it was nothing more
than just a business transaction, both parties were making deals, one gave, and
one received. At the end, like to a
joint-venture or investment in the stock market, no one is promised with a
gain. For the accusers, they not only
lost money and fame, they also lost their own “self”.
I will never sell my soul and body to anyone even I have to
work in McDonald to make a living. It
all comes down to “self-respect”.
