Blake Lively- Jason Baldoni and NYT - False Light claims

When I saw his pic on Reddit yesterday, this whole case made sense to me. I get what BL is trying to convince people of here. It’s sad and down right infuriating the way that she is trying to use the race/POC card here to claim SH. Several people on Reddit agreed. She’s doing some race baiting here about JB and Heath, and tying it to their faith.


And I can see how her flirty behavior created a lot of grey areas. Wow, she’s using the ‘they made me uncomfortable because they are dark’ race card. That’s what this is. Despicable.

Oh, well if several people on Reddit agreed 🙄

They’re trying to paint a pattern of uncomfortable behavior blah blah blah, but when the rest of the evidence is so scant that falls apart too. The fact that people are insisting on bringing it up, means that they have nothing else.

Anyway, attention is now being paid to the fact that Jamiy Heath is a person of color. This ran under the radar for a long time because the focus was on Justin and even if you go back a couple of weeks ago, most people who were debating this case, thought that all the incidents were about Justin. I think this Jenny Slate complaint, being that it’s about Heath, has bought him more into the light and now the internet is starting to pick up on the fact that these two white women repeatedly made fairly stereotypical complaints about him.

I’d like to learn more about Jenny’s complaint, but it seems like his sanctity of motherhood comment just made her uncomfortable. Would love to know why. Did something just seem off? HMMMM.

And I don’t think it’s going to look good for Blake that she is giving into the oversexed stereotype. He just couldn’t tear his eyes away from her in that trailer! He just couldn’t keep from showing me p*rn on set! I’m really wondering why her team went that route, I think they probably just wanted to get the number of complaints up and thought it was all going to be focused on Justin and people weren’t going to take this deep a look. And, I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that most of her team is white and they just not thinking about this. I think the next few weeks they’re going to be going on quite a journey here.

The sanctity of motherhood comments either on their own or collectively with other actions made her uncomfortable enough that she went to Sony and complained.

So far I don't think there is any indication his race is at play. The complaints are about all 3 executives of Wayfarer and mostly aimed at Jamey and Justin who were on set. People of any race can do wrong and so far I don't see anything that makes it seem that becase he is biracial she has complained about him any differently than Justin.

The whole case has 'made sense' in about ten different ways to people now depending on which way the social media posts are blowing.

You may not think race is in play here. That’s cool.

To say that this is not going to be a thing when it’s starting to become a thing is just burying your head in the sand. The optics here do not look good.

I am also sure Blake’s team did not think this was a big deal either. Wonder why?

I think it's impossible to evaluate the Jenny Slate allegation without actually knowing what he said. All THR said was that it had to do with motherhood and that it made Slate uncomfortable enough that she filed an HR report. You are assuming you know what he said but you don't, none of us do.

So maybe before you start speculating someone must be a racist for filing a single HR complaint on a set where other people also experienced inappropriate behavior, you could wait until you actually know what the HR complaints said and why Slate felt Heath's comment crossed a line.

I guarantee that JS took an innocent banter that may have been somewhat cultural, and twisted it into something that was offensive because it was being said by a man of color. She probably felt uncomfortable with his presence in her personal space at a certain time of day because she was alone. Or it could have been he was really nice and that made her uncomfortable.

What would have been totally okay behavior by someone who was not a POC became weaponized.

And having BL and JS report that ‘he/they made us feel uncomfortable’ is akin to trying to get a POC fired because you did not like them.

Despicable.

Hmm I don’t know, but I assume his side. That RR and TS stuff does not make her look good

The gag order was denied a while ago. They are allowed to keep up the website. What the judge said was that both of them…..maybe a lawyer can explain, but essentially it’s not a gag order, but I believe some limitations are in place that weren’t there before.

I’m going to give Jenny Slate the benefit of the doubt here. Unlike Blake, she has not had a history of bullying and problematic behavior.

But with all that we’ve learned in the last decade plus about the biases that even the most well meaning of us carry,
I really hope that we find out that what Jamey did was so egregious that she felt compelled. Because otherwise I do think it starts to come into question.

Back to my earlier point about the race baiting.

If you look at BL’s allegations about the kiss down the neck, the visits to the trailer while breast pumping/feeding and the uncomfortable stares, etc, and view JB and Heath as two RR types, this all seems a bit weird. As the evidence showed, a big nothingburger.

But had that video evidence and texts been there, if you read these situations with JB and Heath being men of color/dark or “different” then it takes on a different optic altogether. She may have said something to RR and he freaked knowing that these were the guys that BL was dealing with. That could also explain why BL wanted to take control over so many aspects. It all fits now.

Disgusting.

Utterly despicable.

I’m wondering if the friend actor that JB hired for the delivery scene. Was he white or a man of color? (Haven’t seen the movie)

I really can’t imagine what someone could have said about the sanctity of motherhood that would upset me enough to report them. It’s such a bizarre claim. There seems to be a large lack of life skills with some of these folks.

You know one line from an online article. Nothing directly from a source. It seems so far it is more the men who lack life skills and knowing boundaries and professional behavior in a workplace.

No, it doesn’t seem that way. At all. If you have that perception I’m guessing that you too struggle in this area.

BL knew exactly what card to play to gain sympathy from women and perhaps take over the movie.

The only thing that I see that JB and Heath did wrong is that they did not know her game. JB was wise to save some receipts. But he should have gone further to protect himself. I think had he known that BL was like this, he would have protected himself even sooner.

She is toxic. Never would want to work aside her as a female, and especially as a female poc without lots and lots of receipts and other people around at all times.

Despicable.

You "guarantee" it? Based on what? What about Jenny Slate's history or things she in the past would lead you to believe that she was simply uncomfortable being alone with a black man and ran to HR to report an innocuous statement because of her raging racism?

There is also zero evidence that Slate or Blake Lively reported that interactions with Heath were uncomfortable with the goal of getting him fired. He was a producer on the film and a CEO at Wayfarer so not really a "fire-able" position. Most of Lively's allegations are focused on Baldoni, not Heath, who was also not fire-able.

You are inventing a narrative in which Jenny Slate, who has sued no one, did not even want to come forward with this allegation (and it appears still hasn't come forward with it, actually), and has zero history of bad behavior on set or in the press, is a racist who tried to get a black man fired. But that's not what happened, at all.

You need to stop and look at your own behavior here. When y'all were going after Lively you could at least argue that she has a problematic history, is known to be hard to work with, that the way she handled things with Baldoni were escalating on her side. But none of that is true for Slate. So when you go after her in the exact same way, it really starts to look like just raging misogyny and a mob who loves nothing more than to call a woman names and tear her down.

I think it's possible the THR reporter is not describing the interaction accurately. This is such a weird round about way of describing it without actually saying whatever it is he said to Slate. I agree it's hard to imagine what he could say about the sanctity of motherhood that would give rise to an HR complaint. Since it doesn't make sense at all, I will assume that I have not been given enough info about it to understand. Instead of just assuming "ladies be crazy! she must be racist!"
