They go after vulnerable people and take advantage and abuse them because they are not powerful and more easy to silence or just not be believed. They count on this. They may have the power to destroy careers and do.
At the same time they have business success and money which gets them into celebrity and power circles. They fool people. They create a false persona and move in high circles while abusing others in secret.
No one would care if they had not worked so hard to become powerful and been seen in the company of reputable people. They used success as a shield. People wanted to be near their success and charisma. They fit in. It doesn't mean all or any of these social associates took part in their behavior.
It's similar to how priests use the trust of being clergy or to take advantage of vulnerable people. Anyone with the ability to live a double life follows this behavior.
Yes, this. Thank you for expressing it better than I did earlier in the thread. I’m not looking to be an apologist for Diddy, he is vile and I have always hated him (the way he used Biggie was pretty disgusting in and of itself). But this is exactly how I think he wielded his power, in service of his double life.
You contine to double and triple down. Stop.
I agree with both perspectives but more with yours. It’s just like Weinstein - there is no way a Meryl Streep hadn’t heard about “Harvey girls.” But she didn’t GAF. Her own foot-faced daughters were never going to be raped - that was for prettier “trash” without powerful, established parents. It’s really the same.
I fully believe that everyone had an inkling that young, attractive, to them nameless, party guests who stayed while bold faced names left were the entertainment for Combs and others. They don’t and did not ever care. I am positive that not only general rumors but specific stories about specific individuals made victims of of drugging, coercion, blackmail, rape, murder, and retaliation were very well-known by the elite at those parties even if they never participated.
