Roman Polanski Calls ‘MeToo’ Movement ‘Collective Hysteria’ And ‘Total Hypocrisy’

Daily Caller: Hollywood filmmaker and accused sex offender Roman Polanski called the “#MeToo” movement an example of mass hysteria that sometimes catches fire in society.

The movement is a type of “collective hysteria of the kind that sometimes happens in the society,” he told a Polish edition of Newsweek before the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences pulled his membership.

Polanski fled the U.S. in 1977 while after being convicted of having sex with a minor. He also compared the film industry’s response to the wave of recent sexual misconduct allegations to the way North Korea treats dead leaders.  more here

  1. When Roman Polanski is so right about things wrong with America… and so many Americans straight faced lying about Roman Polanski, so you can’t interrupt their screeching with what Roman Polanski said (surprisingly, not always Democrats)… maybe it’s time to just go home. The party’s over, they’re not going to turn off the lights, let alone clean up. If they’re going to light a match, and screech, best to not be in their way.

  2. I’m still waiting for Meryl Streep to tell me what she really thinks about a 44 year old man who drugged and raped and sodomized a 13 year old girl. She has three daughters that were 13 years old once. She must have an opinion about Roman Polanski that she can share with me. I expect to hear from her as soon as she sits down and stops applauding for this creative rapist.

  3. Had a friend who wondered what ol’ Roman would be doing now if he’d been home with his pregnant wife on the night in question?

    Or would have old Charlie extended him professional courtesy?

  4. Roman Polanski is absolutely, 100% correct. The ‘MeToo’ Movement is the poster child for ‘Collective Hysteria’ And ‘Total Hypocrisy.’

    The individuals and non-profits who are out front trying to profit off of the ‘MeToo’ Movement represent the who’s who of who has been actively working to cover up, deflect and project the sins of those they are looking to curry favor with onto their political opponents.

    That recognition does nothing to make the asshole less loathsome, it is just an accurate assessment of his statement

  5. Well yes The-Mamomma, it is kind of like child abuse, female genital mutilation, Constitutional rights abridgement and a myriad of other things that the left glom onto when they think there is political hay to be made but make excuses for or cover up for when they don’t see any political profit to be had from opposing it.

  6. If there’s ONE thing Mr. Polanski should know – it’s “Total Hypocrisy.”

    (being a Hollyweird icon, and all – he never seemed to be a hypocrite about raping children)
