Not enough unnecessary N-words and defending of child rapists to be Tarantino.

34

u/HammeringHam 3d ago

Defended who?

78

u/Cloud_N0ne 3d ago

Roman Polanski.

Tarantino basically tried to say it wasn’t rape because the child consented to it, ignoring that children cannot consent to sex, and that Polanski gave the kid drugs beforehand, even further removing their already non-existent ability to consent.

Man... My ability to separate art from artists is being worn down every day. Kanye, Drake, Tom Hanks, R Kelly (just for Ignition), and now QT. Why couldn't he just stay a foot addicted, N-word loving guy? For as funny as the first thing is and as bad as the second thing is, I could at least excuse them in my mind for Basterds and Django, but OF COURSE he had to part of the Hollywood child predator scum circles.

u/MrDatrox 3d ago

What did Tom Hanks do :(

u/MyNameSpaghette 2d ago

Is no one going to follow up on this? WTF DID TOM HANKS DO?!

u/Cloud_N0ne 2d ago

Iirc there’s rumors that he went to Epstein’s island. But afaik there’s no solid proof for it.

u/BarOk9676 2d ago

His Name was on the flight Lists several times iirc

2

u/Captain_LSD 1d ago

Sorry for the late response, but yeah pretty much this. I heard some stuff about his name among others being on the list. Also, his disgusted reaction to Ricky Gervais' jokes about Epstein during the Golden Globe awards (every year is an amazing watch btw, there are tons of compilations) doesn't exactly argue against it, you know?

u/Sarsmi 3d ago

Interestingly, its been multiple women who have come out against Polanski as having been raped by him. He really only gets cited for the main one, where he did admit to 'unlawful intercourse' or something like that.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

I wish the world had a magnifying glass over each virtue signaling redditors life. This site would nosedive with the progressive bullshit in an instant. "Hey, this you?"

u/Cloud_N0ne 3d ago

Feel free to inspect my profile in as much detail as you like. I can safely say I’ve never defended a child rapist, Tarantino has.

That’s not virtue signaling or progressivism.

"Oh you don't like paedos? Well I bet you've jay-walked before, you fuckin' hypocrite!"

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago edited 3d ago

About as disingenuous as a middle school classroom so you are in good company.

Edit: is there a correlation between the times american kids are awake for a school schedule and an uptick in reddit pretending to be progressive personified? I'm not a betting man but most of you have been probably radicalized by some 15 year old that's good with words. Life is tough.

u/zu-chan5240 3d ago

I bet this shit goes hard if you're stupid.

u/Loki-Holmes 3d ago

They’re really telling on themself with this.

“Defending pedos is bad.”

“Well I bet you’ve all been radicalized by high schoolers!”

-37

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago edited 3d ago

I have to actually spell this out while you cretins accuse me of being stupid? Ok, kids. Circle around. We are on a thread about a pigeon, it took two comments for this site to make this pigeon be about Quentin Tarantino, the n word and Roman polanski. 2 comments. This site is nothing but [insert progressive comment for upvotes for sake of...upvotes]. It's not cryptic but you are all so mentally undeveloped.

Edit: blocking on reddit because you're scared to deal with a reply while preaching bullshit is a testament that you aren't really all that comfortable in "your" regurgitated opinion

33

u/Loki-Holmes 3d ago

TIL being anti-pedo is progressive.

12

u/sharrancleric 3d ago

Have you seen conservatives lately? Of course being anti-pedo is a progressive standpoint.

-2

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Sounds like you want to agree but you're scared all your peers will never talk to you again. Which is really the main problem. Disagree with status quo and you're ostracized. I get it, you got to play the game if you're that age.

u/zu-chan5240 3d ago

Sure grandpapi, now time for your meds.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

All of you know it is. Everytime I've had to walk any of you through your disingenuous argument you've all had to resort to these type of attacks. Get em next time

u/BeatenPathos 3d ago

Yeah my comment was flippant and didn't add much to the discussion, but 1) I thought it was funny, so I posted it and 2) it doesn't seem like a conversation worth having. Tarantino is a twat and poking fun at him is fine.

I'm neither American nor a kid. Worry less about where opinions come from.

1

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

sounds nice but the whole deal with taking advice or opinions is knowing who it's coming from. Just because a broken clock is right twice a day doesn't mean thats the clock you should use. That sounds nice too, huh?

3

u/BeatenPathos 3d ago

I don't know why you're conflating opinions on Reddit with advice.

1

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Why do redditors always do this. I said taking advice or opinions, as in either one. This does not mean that everything I have said up until this point has been misconstrued as advice. Get em next time, champ. Or you got any other little toxic quirks you wanna try?

u/BeatenPathos 3d ago

You've been here for five years. If you want insight into why Redditors are the way that they are, trying asking a mirror.

u/tgothe418 3d ago

I'm going to watch Chinatown even harder now. Maybe Rosemary's Baby. It's going to be a Polanski night here.

u/Accide 3d ago

Did commenting this make you feel better?

1

u/tgothe418 1d ago

It gave me a small chuckle? Took like 2 seconds to type out.

1

u/Accide 1d ago

I'm glad you were able to find joy in being an asshole to another person.

1

u/tgothe418 1d ago

Because I enjoy Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby?
I wasn't an asshole, it is just absurd how strongly folks clutch their pearls.

Roman Polanski was one person in the making of those movies out of the many hundreds involved.

I think it is incredibly dismissive of film as an inherently collaborative artform to completely dismiss works of art because a key player did horrible things totally outside of the work itself.

1

u/Accide 1d ago

So, this is what you should have left in the first place.

Not that first weird comment.

We both know you were being a dick, I'm glad you at least were able to figure out what you were trying to say whilst inebriated.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

It's like no holds barred highschool edition in here. 15 upvotes lol

u/Maximum_Opinion_3094 3d ago

All I did was respond exactly as ridiculously and hysterically as you did.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

When you're delusional the caveat is that you don't know

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Reality doesn't matter here. It's every thread on this site that unchecked uninformed kids have to shoehorn in some unrelated bullshit for validation. Yeah, let's take advice from people that still have their parents pay their phone bill.

23

u/Emperor_Atlas 3d ago

I guarantee if they did the same to all the people who bootlick for corps and rich people it'd be exponentially worse.

-20

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Idk where you've been hiding but that's been the entire purpose of this site for at least 12 years now.

31

u/Emperor_Atlas 3d ago

Are we pretending for pretend land? Sure.

Omg that's terrible! You must be so oppressed! It's brave of you to still be here to tell everyone your struggle!

-8

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Is saying pretend land the equivalent of putting your hands over your ears and screaming "I can't hear you"

u/Emperor_Atlas 3d ago

There's my guy! Still showing how heroic he is!

"Lol he likes feet"

Says overweight redditor with crippling futa porn addiction.

11

u/TeegyGambo 3d ago

How did you turn "This guy uses racial slurs gratuitously and defended a child rapist" into "lol he likes feet"

Either way it is true that all of us here on Reddit have crippling futa porn addictions.

3

u/airfryerfuntime 3d ago

The thread started by talking about his obsession with feet.

u/LustfulValley 3d ago

Good job defending a literal child rapist.

u/NoEmphasis2081 2d ago

Progressive, "Conservative" - you're all fucking insane, either way. Calm down. Moderate yourself.

u/No_Hold_9114 3d ago

Did you want to try stringing together a coherent reply one more time? Or is it just the buzz words that make you feel good?

u/TantamountDisregard 3d ago edited 3d ago

Anything you didn't understand? They were clear enough for me.

u/stopitlikeacheeto 3d ago

Did you learn the phrase virtue signaling from this site and believe it to be exclusive?

u/OrlandoBloominOnions 3d ago

Why is Reddit like this? Either do something about it in real life or shut up 🤣

u/Cloud_N0ne 2d ago

Lol what? What am I supposed to “do about it”?

Asinine comment.

Ok, child rape apologist.

u/fiat_duna 3d ago

Oh is that what I am now? Fuck off with your holier than thou shit

u/Cloud_N0ne 3d ago

I didn’t realize being against child-rape made me “holier than thou”. I thought it made me normal.

Outing yourself much?
