‘Harvey Weinstein, we got you’: Hollywood producer out on $1m bail, but Twitterati happy to see him under custody

Seeing him arrested, many women on social media tweeted how they finally had some faith on the justice and law. However, all their hopes were shattered when the producer was out on bail by just giving out a huge cheque.

“You start to think there’s no justice in the world, and then Harvey Weinstein and Tommy Robinson get arrested on the same day,” said a Twitter user. “So Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein are both arrested! Think you could pick up the music industry’s bad guys while your at it! 1.6 million bail! Ha. Thank you for some justice finally,” said another.

Here are some of the reactions.

Today Harvey Weinstein will take his first step on his inevitable descent to hell. We, the women, finally have real hope for justice. https://t.co/or8qGaNO93

Harvey Weinstein shattered the lives of an untold number of women. We stand with them, and remain in solidarity with women everywhere who have faced unsafe and abusive workplaces. We look forward to seeing justice prevail. (2/2)

So now that Harvey Weinstein already posted bail, I’m guessing he’s heading to the only place he won’t be judged for his actions… Mar-O-Lago.

How TF is it even allowed for Harvey Weinstein to make bail? He’s a rapist. There’s plenty of others in prison for so much less? He’s a RAPIST???????

Harvey Weinstein showed up for rape charges with a 1million bail check and was home in time foe lunch. Meanwhile i felt like snoop on trial for a murder for a damn traffic ticket. Wild times

Weinstein’s lawyer at the courthouse today:

“The casting couch in Hollywood was not invented by Harvey Weinstein.”

Is that… a defense?

Harvey Weinstein’s defense is that he didn’t invent the casting couch, so apparently rape is only bad if you were the first person to do it.

We got you, Harvey Weinstein, we got you

1 of 2: That Harvey Weinstein, a powerful man who thrived and flourished as he shattered and abused women in a culture of impunity was arrested and charged is resoundingly significant. It is a watershed event, an irreversible pivot away from tacit and explicit license to exploit

Harvey Weinstein’s lawyer is repugnant. His defense, that Harvey didn’t invent “the casting couch” or to say in blunt terms—“I’m powerful, either you have sex with me, or I’ll ruin you” to females is vomit inducing. It’s insulting, vile, and should be thrown out in court.

Sexual molesters in court.
Tommy Robinson arrested.
Harvey Weinstein arrested.
Today is a good day.

Harvey Weinstein’s half smirk as he was being put in handcuffs is EVERY man who STILL thinks he can somehow get away with being a pig.

Guess what? #TimesUp
