Have you ever wondered what the USSR would have looked like if it existed in the times of the Internet?
If you’d like to know if any of the movies or TV shows you watch has a bad apple –someone accused of sexual misconduct– affiliated with it, you need to head over to The Rotten Appl.es. A quick search of their database will tell you if a cast-member, screenwriter, executive producer or director is an alleged abuser.
This looks like the “List of Prohibited Books”. I understand that someone doesn’t want to support a sexual predator, but hell, “allegations” of sexual misconduct? Not even a clear sentence/conviction?
No more need for juries and courthouses, pillory is the new way.
