Bill Clinton - Democrats love him although he abused his position of power
Michael Jackson - People give him a pass or put blinders on because they like his music

Any others? Do you think any of the current crop will be forgiven, or are we in a different time now?

Trump is a strange one. The public hates him but any sexual issues are not as big of a deal.

Have people forgiven Louis CK or did that story never get enough traction to count?


Lol was this the "story" about him taking a girl to this room then standing in the door way so she couldn't leave and jacking it?

Mike Tyson did legit rape that woman though.

Bill Clinton getting so much positive pub last year was very cringe though.

That wasn't a joke. So often we talk about "what was okay at time" without any consideration for all of the people who were there at the time. It didn't take until 1865 for the slaves to figure out slavery was bad.

No, of course not. Slaves were legally considered the property of their owner. Definitely not any worse than getting whipped, etc.

Not to say that the mixed-race kids that came about because of this activity didn't have a stigma attached to them.

We'll never know for sure but the evidence is pretty damning. If it were almost anyone else, the jury of social media would declare him guilty.

The court of public opinion declared him guilty decades ago but still kept listening to his music

They do the same thing with R. Kelly

I'm not going to get into legal definitions of what constitutes evidence, because that doesn't matter to the court of public opinion. But this paragraph from wikipedia:

In August 1993, police raided Jackson's home and, according to court documents, found books and photographs in his bedroom featuring young boys with little or no clothing.[195] Since the books were legal to purchase and own, the jury decided not to indict Jackson.[196] Jordan Chandler gave police a description of Jackson's intimate parts; a strip search revealed that Jordan had correctly claimed Jackson had patchy-colored buttocks, short pubic hair, and pink and brown marked testicles.[197] Reportedly, Jordan had also drawn accurate pictures of a dark spot on Jackson's penis only visible when his penis was lifted.[198] Despite differing initial internal reports from prosecutors and investigators,[199] with reports of jurors feeling that the photos did not match the description,[200] the DA stated his belief in a sworn affidavit that the description was accurate,[201] along with the sheriff's photographer stating the description was accurate.[202] A 2004 motion filed by Jackson's defense asserted that Jackson was never criminally indicted by any grand jury and that his settlement admitted no wrongdoing and contained no evidence of criminal misconduct.[203]

Also, I agree that Michael didn't harm kids. I think it was irresponsible and wildly inappropriate to have stay-over guests who were unattended children... but I just don't think he did it.

Bill Cosby is another one who I'm not convinced did it.

How were multiple small children able to describe his genitals in such intricate detail without ever seeing them?

They were too busy trying to decide whether he was black or white.

R Kelly?

Not even close. He's still fucking up, convincing kids from the club to hang out with him and then convincing harems of barely legal girls to come live with him, taking away their phones, pressuring them to do all kinds of favors for him, not letting them contact their families, etc. If he's not gotten caught doing something blatantly illegal yet, it's only a matter of time before this turns into an ugly scandal.

He was just a big time philanderer like JFK. If youre the president and sleeping with a White House intern, thats about as clear cut an abuse of power you can get.
