Dude gave a speech to congress about "modern slavery" of sex trafficking, but can't talk about systemic abusers he actually knew. He resigned from THORN after writing letters of support for Danny Mastersons, but it's just so infuriating to see how performative his actions have always been.
I don't think it is performative. I don't give a shit about Kutcher. But his work was still valuable for helping end a lot of sex trade shit around the world. Don't discount that.
Think of it like this -
How many people tried to call out Cosby? Or Epstein? Or even Diddy? This was DECADES of call outs. It took a massive media push to finally get something to happen.
People are literally calling Drake and Trump a pedo TODAY and these dudes are walking around.
Bitch defended Danny Masterson too
The scientologist rapist Danny Masterson?
Very same.
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis: Masterson's former "That '70s Show" co-stars wrote letters asking the judge for leniency
Debra Jo Rupp: Another "That '70s Show" cast member who played Kitty Forman, wrote a letter sharing positive anecdotes about Masterson
Billy Baldwin: Masterson's brother-in-law wrote a letter in support
Giovanni Ribisi: An actor who was raised in Scientology, also wrote a letter supporting Masterson
He still went to jail though I think?
It's too bad about Ribisi, he was a good actor. Thankfully he seems to have disappeared.
He did cinematography for the movie "Strange Darling" that came out recently and it was really well done. He was also on the Amazon series "Sneaky Pete," which I thought the first season of was pretty good. Been a fan of his since the 90's, it's too bad about his Scientology background/connection
Yeah sneaky Pete is the last thing I've seen him in.
Well, fuck That 70's Show I guess. Hopefully Red and Topher are being chill. Donna too I reckon
Wilmer Valderrama too, I hope!
He murdered Mars Volta frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala's dog, too
