Pretty much all she has said, over and over, is that he is innocent until proven guilty. Legally, this is true. The fact that Cosby is obviously guilty as sin doesn't make it okay to demand his head on a platter because it just isn't how things work here. Letting public outrage go too far, especially in a case against a PoC, sets a slippery slope precedent. She'd be saying the same thing if he were white, though she probably wouldn't be as invested. She was speaking out because she genuinely thought there would be a trial. It's not that the legal consultant came and gave her info about his crimes that changed her mind. He explained to her why it was unlikely, given the circumstances, that he would ever go to trial. And then she gave her actual opinion, because legal justice was out of the picture. She's not stupid, she's not vile. She's just a woman of strong convictions, and she stuck to her guns despite America waving their pitchforks and calling her a rape apologist.

As far as I know, no one on Twitter actually has the power to demand Cosby's head on a silver platter. Unless there have been some dramatic changes to the American legal system while I wasn't paying attention.

It is, therefore, fucking stupid to talk about thing in those terms.

Further, I appreciate that she is a woman of strong convictions; that is an admirable characteristic. I also think that she is a rape apologist, and I think it is wrong to be a rape apologist. No matter how noble her motives, I'm still probably going to think that.

She absolutely is a rape apologist. Remember her 'it's not rape rape' comment during the whole Polanksi mess?

Which is so fucking ridiculous! Like, I think she was under the impression that Polanski and the victim were actually in loooove and it was "only" statutory rape (which would've been disgusting enough, the girl was THIRTEEN YEARS OLD, not 17, and he was 43. GROOSSSSSSS. But aside from that it WAS "RAPE rape." He prevented her from leaving, he gave her drugs and alcohol, she said no and fought back and he still raped her (including anally, for God's sake--this CHILD), he threatened her afterward. But don't let the facts get in the way of good ol' Whoopi offering her dumbass opinions on famous rape cases.
