[@Lamtitude]

Mychael Darklighter I think you’re missing the point. Kevin stood up to Harvey when he didn’t have too. There was no band wagon to jump on when he told Harvey off. It was potentially a very hazardous thing to do for his career to stand up to Harvey at that time and yet he did it because he felt like it was the right thing to do. It was very brave thing to do. All the celebrities that came out of the woodwork to slam Harvey did so only after there was a public outcry for his head. No bravery what so ever.

Unlike all you "after the fact" keyboard warriors that never said a word about it until it became public? It amazes me that you idiots think that just because someone works in Hollywood they were automatically aware of what Harvey was doing. You're a moron.

@@zamiel3 Not one single person thinks anyone was automatically aware about what Harvey was doing, but that does not mean that a large amount of people did'nt know. Many people even if not victims of him at least saw and heard his abuse and an even larger part of Hollywood had at least heard the rumours. Yet nothing but silence for decades.

[@Lamtitude]

zam iel it was well known that Harvey Weinstein did really creepy things to women in Hollywood. No one really said anything because he had a lot of power and could make or break someone’s career. Also, no one is saying that everyone in Hollywood knew what he was doing, but there were definitely some people that knew what was going on and had heard the rumors and said nothing about it until the story broke. I don’t really blame them for staying quiet, but to act disgusted about it after the fact when some of them already knew something was going on is so weak minded. Staying quiet is different from only speaking out when it’s safe to speak without becoming a martyr.

he literally talks about it in the next video

[@moe47988]

I have a hard time believing this. He probably “politely asked him to be quiet.”. Usually when people say things like “I swear on my child’s life” - it means that they’re lying, or exaggerating.

[@davesvens8697]

He's probably exaggerated a little, but told Weinstein to shut the fuck up. I think he did it more playfully and Weinstein, the fucker, took it seriously enough to shut the fuck up and leave the leave the building. Well.. now he gets to shut the fuck up in prison 😁

[@grindhouserob]

Good for Kevin! I also learned too late in life that in order to put these overbearing and irreproachable people in their place - regardless of whether they're family, friends, neighbors or co-workers - is to get in their face and stand up to them.

Harvey never really understand the meaning of “stop” or “no” anyways.

This is telling him off? Basically called him a father figure lol then getting scared of him..

[@gregoryeatroff8608]

Yes, telling him "shut the fuck up" and calling his behavior unacceptable is telling him off. And Smith talking about how much respect he'd had for Weinstein before this incident enhancest the story. And as for him being scared, REAL bravery is being afraid and doing what needs to be done anyway.

In some articles Kevin wrote years ago, he actually referenced that Simpsons episode and admitted that his hockey jerseys are his MuMus 😂

Exactly what I thought.

[@JnEricsonx]

Harvey was at my job last summer. I didn't help him or anything, but I realized who it was, ankle monitor and all, and I was thinking "well, good thing as far as I know only me and my boss recognize him!"

[@Serai3]

Clearly he did it deliberately _because_ Kevin made the movie without him. Nothing enrages a narcissist like the idea that he's not the center of everything.

[@christopherj3121]

Exactly. Total narcissist behavior.
