His explanation sounds oddly like asking for the context of a group chat full of peeping toms

Phylicia Rashad apologized for coming off insensitive shortly after. I don't think being against blaming victims of date rape is a warped view at all.

She said "a terrible wrong is being righted" in celebration of her rapey friend being released from prison for rapey stuff he did.im not understanding what youre saying
all phylicia rashad did was support her decades long friend, it was a bunch of internet randos who accused her of this and that
she apologized for other peoples misunderstanding of it
all she did was support her friend, no more no less
She said "a terrible wrong is being righted" in celebration of her rapey friend being released from prison for rapey stuff he did.
I don't see where she said that. All my self and many others saw was here belittling sexual abuse victims; which is why she apologized about an hour later.no, that's a mistranslation
she celebrated her LONG TIME FRIEND being released from prison after a RIGGED trial
are we not clear on why he was released? its because he was NEVER supposed to be on trial in the first place

Yeah well, do to his access of power, this situation was rigged in his favour to begin with.the right being wronged, miscarriage of justice being corrected - this is all about a RIGGED trial
how can you stand trial and be found guilty of something youre NOT supposed to be on trial for
YOU CANT, which why hes been RELEASED
Yeah well, do to his access of power, this situation was rigged in his favour to begin with.
And in that support she disparaged sexual abuse victims. I’m not saying “she meant to do that”, but ultimately that’s how that message reads. “He won, you lost.”I dont know if youve come to understand my argument, hopefully you have, but please understand one thing
She never belittled victims of sexual assualt, not once, she was just supporting her decades long friend
While I agree with this point, she was dumb if she didn't know people WOULD take her support for him as an indirect "belittlement" of the victims.She never belittled victims of sexual assualt, not once, she was just supporting her decades long friend

Which is why I said she was a damn fool for publicly supporting him.
But she EVENTUALLY figured out that she made a mistake .
But yes, I think her intent was to support her friend but of course many wouldn't see it that way.
#LowIQ on her part.
Your entire position REQUIRES one to ignore what Cosby admitted to doing.no, that's a mistranslation
she celebrated her LONG TIME FRIEND being released from prison after a RIGGED trial

celebrating exoneration from a RIGGED trial somehow becomes "she doesnt care about rape victims" - more and more mistranslations
Your entire position REQUIRES one to ignore what Cosby admitted to doing.
Nobody missed the point that he shouldn't have been on trial because of the circumstances surrounding his admission. To ask people to format their brain and erase what they know about Cosby's behavior is a bit much, isn't it?
50+ credible accusations of sexual assault might be one good reason for a public figure to keep a friendship private
This is what I have a major issue with. What makes them all credible? Sharing a similar story doesn't prove/disprove anything.
Not publicly commenting on a highly sensitive situation =/= Not being friends publicly.Why be friends with someone if you can't be friends publicly? Might as well "cancel" that friendship
If the reason you can't publicly be friends with someone is because they have 60 women accusing them of drugging and raping them? Yeah, it might be time to "cancel" that friendship.Why be friends with someone if you can't be friends publicly? Might as well "cancel" that friendship

I personally wouldn't have done it because I know a large chunk of the general public would automatically ASSUME my support for my friend = the disregarding of the feelings of the victims.
Once Bill was released, I would have called him and just told him that I support him as a friend. (If that is what she NEEDED to do).
I don't KNOW them and their relationship, but I don't THINK her NOT saying anything publicly would have caused him to look at her differently. He has dozens of close friends/family that opted not to say anything. Not sure why she felt the NEED to do so.
It was dumb.

i get what youre saying, but to me, it was kinda like people celebrating OJ,
