Why is child rape so common in Hollywood?


Well?

IT IS?😮

Umm, it's like an "open secret".

WHY WOULD ANYONE RAPE A CHILD?...YOU MUST BE JOSHING AROUND.🤨

I don't know to what extent there is "child rape," but there's definitely an issue of preteens and young teens being sexually assaulted. It's such an accepted practice that you can see it all over Hollywood movies--for example, Pretty Baby, Lolita, Taxi Driver, Leon the Professional, etc. There is a constant theme going back to Gigi of little girls being portrayed as "hot" and coming onto older men.

Unconvinced? It just came out that Stephen Spieberg, Lawrence Kasdan and George Lucas wanted Indiana Jones to have had sex with Marion when she was 11: https://www.comicsbeat.com/indiana-jones-child-molester/?amp

And then there are people like Timothy Hutton: https://variety.com/2020/biz/news/timothy-hutton-accused-1203521082/. Incidentally, he was in a movie with Natalie Portman when she was a kid, and it was about a "hot" girl who falls in love with him.

Stephen Spielberg and George Lucas could be high ranking satanists, and you wouldn't know the difference. So, so many people have suffered from assaults, neglect, and poverty needlessly who didn't have to.

reply

I'm willing to cut George Lucas some slack because he strikes me as a someone who's really childlike in his thinking. Someone in the comments section of the Variety article said that they think that he was on board with the idea of making Indy a pedophile to make him an anti-hero but wasn't smart enough to understand that this wouldn't have made him an anti-hero but a kid toucher. And you know, I can totally see Lucas being naïve about this whole issue. 🤣

Spielberg, on the other hand, I do believe he has a sinister streak in him. Look at what happened to his adopted daughter: https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/steven-spielberg-daughter-parents-porn-taboo-art.

Lucas is that smart - could totally be undercover. Just look at all the people who died simply from lack of health care? How does someone with so much money turn their head to that without being something sinister?

Watching people suffer and die isn't normal, either.

reply

Because sometimes sectors can become a safe haven for deviants. For example, high school was a safe haven for female sexual predators, and clergy was a safe haven for pedophiles.

reply

It's pretty popular everywhere. But Hollywood is a place where you keep your mouth shut in order to further your career. So the kid shuts up, the parents shut up, and everybody else shuts up except the blackmailer.

reply

Sounds like Spotlight, The Sequel.

Rape is rare, what you're talking about is coercion and molestation.

Consent can be obtained with promises of career progression or threats of not getting a part.

reply

A child can't give consent.

reply

Legal consent cannot. But lots of underage girls will have sex for a career.

reply

Underage girls cannot give consent, therefore it is rape.

Birds of a feather...

While I don't like to push it to this length, I think just about any industry that works closely with children attracts pedophiles looking for easy pray. There's also a small increase in chance of children who get abused to themselves be pedophiles in adulthood. It may well be a case of self-perpetuating abuse.

reply

If they would just cast ugly children, this wouldn’t be as big of a problem.

reply

I thought rape was about power and control and not about their looks or how attractive they are.

reply

Why would you want power over some fugly kid?

reply

Because if they speak up, they can be silenced easier. "You just want attention because you're ugly".

reply

That is an angle I hadn’t considered.

I'm not convinced that child rape is more common in Hollywood than anywhere else. Okay, I was up for jury duty last year, and it was a child rape case - a stepfather accused of having sex with a girl of 10-11. About 30 people were pulled out of the crowd and put into the pool of potential jurors, and out of those 30, 10 or so had stories about either being sexually abused when they were children, or being close to someone who had been sexually abused as a child.

So yes, there have been cases of sexual abuse and exploitation of minors in Hollywood, but it happens EVERYWHERE, and it's much more common than anyone wants to admit. In families, mostly, but also in schools or churches, wherever adults are around children. And if people are going crazy with conspiracy theories about Hollywood abuse of children, IMHO it's because they don't want to look too closely at their own communities. Or families.

reply

The Catholic Church is likely the biggest pedophile organization in the world.

reply

I hope they're the biggest! God forbid there should be a bigger collection of pedos!

But I still think they're vastly outnumbered by the unorganized independents, who prey on their own families or the local kids.

reply

Sick fucks!

reply

It is absolutely not. More children are assaulted in public schools and secular organizations than in the Church. The idea that the Church is exceptional is a lie started by hateful atheist bigots like George Carlin using the scandal to propagate their hatred for all religions.
