They said yes and that was that.

not always. IIRC only one said yes, the others said no, or gave a non-response and in a few instances he just proceeded anyway.

from what i read they all said yes

i wonder what you read then because the original NYT piece is pretty clear that consent was not given in all (or most, I think?) cases

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/09/arts/television/louis-ck-sexual-misconduct.html

As soon as they sat down in his room, still wrapped in their winter jackets and hats, Louis C.K. asked if he could take out his penis, the women said.

They thought it was a joke and laughed it off. And then he really did it, Ms. Goodman said in an interview with The New York Times. He proceeded to take all of his clothes off, and get completely naked, and started masturbating.

and another:

In 2003, Abby Schachner called Louis C.K. to invite him to one of her shows, and during the phone conversation, she said, she could hear him masturbating as they spoke.

I do think that we should institute some kind of limit on this, though. I'm a staunch capitalist, but one person should not have that much wealth.

New wealth can be created and all, but let's imagine for a second that along comes someone who is so brilliant and exceptional and lucky...that they absorb 99% of all the wealth. That is not good for either capitalists or everyone else.

So to address the undertone of the OP, I think we should expect individuals to start contributing 100% of their wealth to charity/their workers after they get to a certain point. Maybe once someone has amassed 20 billion or something, unless they're actively reinvesting money like how Elon Musk reinvested tens of millions into his various companies that employ thousands.

i like the idea of having tiered capital gains taxes, just like we do with income taxes. it's nonsense that someone who generates 99% of their income through investments only pays 15% tax on it, especially when that person is (most likely) already terribly wealthy.

They've also produced more than those people combined.

sure, but they had a lot of help from a lot of people to accomplish that. by no means am i downplaying their accomplishments, as they've contributed significantly to our society. but to think they did it "on their own" is shortsighted, imo.

Do you have any proof that those 160 million people affect society in any way at all?

you affect society by simply being a part of it. im not sure what your question is.

who said they did it on their own, though? they didn't. they paid people who worked, obviously. but they did do a lot of the heavy lifting and decision making that grew their respective niches into something huge.

those remarks in no way represent "the left" any more than Stormfront or the KKK represents "the right". that lady is an extremist and in the minority.

And yet when her brand of lunacy is exposed, people refuse to acknowledge it. The same people demand that conservatives at large acknowledge and answer for the alt right's horse shit. Why is that? Why the double standard?

Yeah, that lady is an idiot. What more acknowledgement do you want?

Christmas is more of an American holiday than it is a Christian holiday in the year 2017

No I'm pretty sure that Christmas is the celebration of Christ's birth. Correct me if I'm wrong. And you go out for Christmas meals and say Merry Christmas to your neighbours

it was originally, but American commercialism turned it into a holiday about material goods and snowflakes. American retailers want to sell as much as possible and they don't want to isolate holiday sales to just Christians, so they've slowly removed all religious references to the holiday in favor of being as inclusive as possible.

This is a non-issue. The guy has a weird fetish but asked for consent every single time he did it. The only two women upset who saw it thought he was joking when he asked and laughed it off, never telling him they were uncomfortable.

This is only a story because its following the Weinstein and Spacey bandwagons, with people disingenuously trying to claim theyre at all similar.

imagine if your boss called you into his office and asked you if you could watch him jerk off. that would probably not go over well and your boss would be unemployed by lunchtime.

so why arent actors, actresses, comedians held to the same standard? obviously they're not clocking into an office but they're all still working professionals and i think anyone in this position should be entitled to having some level of professionalism and not have to be subjected to weird sexual advances. it's not like the girls were on a date with louis CK or something, he was just being a weirdo

He asked, if they said no he apologized and didn't push it.

doesnt make it any less inappropriate dude

Too bad, be an adult and move on. This harms literally no one.

.... you seriously see nothing wrong with approaching a woman and asking her to watch you masturbate? i can't accept that you actually believe this, you HAVE to be trolling because nobody is that obtuse.

nope. the first story outlined in the NYT article says he just whipped his penis out in front of two women and started going at it. in another instance he was on the phone with a woman and she heard him deeding. not sure where you got your information from but it seems inaccurate based on what i've read.

here's the article, you can read for yourself:

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/09/arts/television/louis-ck-sexual-misconduct.html

also, in what world is it socially acceptable to approach women and ask them to watch you masturbate? do you honestly think there is absolutely nothing wrong with that behavior?

According to a Republican politician in Alabama, since Mary got knocked up by Joseph when she was a teenager, banging teenagers is a-OK.

"Take Joseph and Mary. Mary was a teenager and Joseph was an adult carpenter. They became parents of Jesus,"

I'm not putting words into his mouth by calling out how his assertions are bullshit.

He said

"It wouldn't matter as much to the media".

then you said that he said

"You think celebrities don't get called racists unless they run for public office?"

So you went from "It wouldn't matter as much" to "celebrities never get called out unless they run for office". The leap from "not matter as much" to "not matter at all ever" was created by you, not him. How can you NOT see the leap in logic you just made by "equating" those two statements?

This is, fundamentally, how you "debate". You make shit up that nobody ever said, then go off on a huge rant over an argument you created yourself. It's Straw Man 101 and a classic tactic by those who belong in /r/iamverysmart
