I copied a conversation going on at FF.

"Well, even if it wasn't voodou, it was a spell of some sort. otherwise, it makes no sense how he got in to such a horrible situation.

Seems like a lot of brad-bashers have never had relationship that was dysfunctional, or maybe never were involved with someone who turned out to be manipulative and conniving. they are lucky. until you have been there, you don't know what it is like. is feels like dealing with a demon at times.

I also don't think Brad "enabled" AJ to have 3 kids and adopt 2 more. She would have done that regardless of who she was with. Her "I never wanted biological children until I met Brad" bullsheet was just her playing her cards to get what she wanted. Maybe she would not be famous forever, but if she had kids by the (*at that time) #1 hollywood heartthrob, no one will forget her."

------------------------------------------------------


"I hear what you are saying, and I am sure it is literally like dealing with a demon. I have no doubt about that, and on that account, I do feel sympathy for Brad and I am sorry for whatever you went through as well. I don't want to make light of it. It's gotta be hell. But danggit, he CHOSE to follow her. He coldly and deliberately left his wife in the dirt so he could have his orgy world and no accountability, like he need never worry about expectations set on him again. It was totally self-indulgent and "free." He had to have known on some level that it was all a lie, a fake lifestyle, a dead end. He chose to ignore that voice in his head and do it anyway.

That would be his own business, and I wouldn't ordinarily care. But it became everyone's business when he flaunted the adultery even while he mouthed the token denials. As a movie star, his major life decisions will be reported to the general culture. When he decided to cheat on his wife and then leave his wife and then make no effort to even be discreet about the adultery, he was informing the public that infidelity and ditching marriage is the new trend. He expected to look cool for it. He was pretty much deliberately trying to make it the new norm. He expected it because he was "Brad Pitt."

He also let her lie and lie and lie to the press, pretending to be something she was not. He enabled her by not standing up and saying, "No, I don't want to trot off to Namibia and pretend to witness the second coming of Christ," "No, I don't believe we should shut down a country," "No, I don't want to pretend to be interested in refugees," "No, I am not particulary interested in New Orleans charity. I just want to do architecture." Instead, he helped her put on a phony humanitarian show. He was basically saying that adultery and other freakish past behavior (in her case) was nothing, the true measure of a person is whether you get enough buzz on the charity scene.

The damage to our culture was extensive. Do you realize how many young Hollyweird fools imitated their behavior? They don't know anything. They just imitate others that appear to be successful. They snort lines till they fall over, lie and scheme on the job, sleep with others' spouses, get in petty wars with others, drive home drunk, and get in scuffles with the law, but hey, it's not important, because didn't you see their picture at the So-and-So Charity Gala last night? What a good guy/woman.

Brad Pitt owes the public an apology for his role in helping set the "anything goes...as long as" culture."

------------------------------------------------------------

My comments..I agree with most of the second post, although I do believe Brad cared about the people of New Orleans more than just his love for architecture.I think he did that because he wanted to give the people there hope that they weren't forgotten. And I do believe the rumors that Jolie questioned Brad on using his money for such a venture. I am sure she felt there were much more worthy causes in distant lands. Sadly enough, she got the good press that came along with doing something here in the states for the people in need. But to Brad's credit, I think his caring came from the heart. If it helped anyone with public relations, it was Jolie. She needed her name attached to it more than he needed to step forward and get something done there.

What I do agree with in this post is that it is the manner that they present themselves that doesn't do this world any good. I don't care how much "money" they give to charity. It is the principle that they present that causes more damage than any charity could ever survive to truly make a difference.

This is an example of some of the comments I enjoy reading there Mystie.
