Has Ashton said anything new yet? The guy built a reputation for defending victims of abuse, but when they’re his buddy Danny’s victims he suddenly has no comment and continued to hang out with him until he was jailed.
Every person that was arrested with the help of Ashton Kutcher was automatically called guilty by him without trial, but when his friend rapes people he’s all “I just can’t know”.
I lost all my respect for him for refusing to ditch an obvious rapist
I mean, does it really matter? I don’t follow the situation, but his lack of opinion on this matter can be a blight on his reputation but it doesn’t change what he did for other victims.
Besides, who cares about a celebrity’s opinion anyway?
I don’t care about celebrities’ opinions. But in this day and age, those fuckers are listened to by impressionable people who have 24/7 access to their voices.
Where did I say that I ask for Ashton Kutcher’s opinion? You missed the point I was trying to make. I don’t care about what celebrities have to say, and I wish other people didn’t either, because unfortunately when they say dangerous things, then it spreads like fire. Case in point: celebrity antivaxxers and covid deniers.
Because of his work with Thorn: Digital Defenders of Children. This doesn’t just hurt his reputation, but very specifically because of the nature of the foundation, could hurt it too. Hopefully it doesn’t, but I’d be surprised if there wasn’t something
It’s a lot easier to condemn someone you don’t know. When a good friend of family member does something horrible, that we feel is out of character for the person we know them as, it can be hard to reconcile those things and come to grips with that.
My sister is friends with a girl who’s father was a pretty prolific serial killer. When she first found out she had no idea, she just knew him as a pretty normal dad. Eventually she was able to accept that he was that person, but it took time, and I have to image that doesn’t completely erase the man she knew him to be before she found out who else he was.
It makes sense for Ashton to stay quiet while he is sorting all that out, assuming he didn’t know all along.

Eh, let’s give the benefit of the doubt. I ask questions about things I don’t care about all the time especially at work.

Only when they have something interesting to say.
I would say here, it matters.
