Ever watch HBO’s Silicon Valley? Any fans of the movie “Office Space” (another brainchild of Matt Judge) would get a kick out of what’s essentially a modern remake of the classic film, this one taking place in San Francisco’s tech hub.
It’s unfortunate that I’m on Twitter, because it’s helped connect me with some of the favorite celebrities I grew up with….. and now realize just how clueless (and in some cases, downright stupid) they are when it comes to politics. Take the show’s “Erlich Bachman” (played by T.J. Miller) as an example, whose character unexpectedly leaves the series in the most recent season’s finale. He’s gone on to pursue other endeavors (in real life), but part of his reason for leaving was also political: He was mad that the show’s fellow actors (many of whom are annoyingly liberal) didn’t want to insert anti-Trump or anti-Right-wing messages into the show.
In other words, his fellow liberals didn’t see any reason to ruin their own show. Miller would later slam the cast for “not doing enough to stop Trump,” as if a 30-minute TV show with fewer than 40 episodes was going to tip the electoral vote in the other direction. He’d later be arrested for assaulting a cab driver over an “alleged” argument about Trump.
And one that note, it’s another day, another anti-Trump liberal accused of sexual assault.
According to HotAir,
The Daily Beast has a story today alleging that actor and comedian T.J. Miller sexually assault a woman during his college years. The accuser is not named but is referred to as “Sarah” in the article. Sarah claims she had a sexual relationship with Miller starting in 2001 but that on two different occasions he became violent.
Months into their relationship, which started in the fall of 2001, Sarah said the first troubling encounter took place. She recalled having “a lot to drink” and admitted that there are “parts of [the incident] I don’t remember.” She stressed that “it is important to me to cop to that… [and] I’m not interested in forcing a pretend memory on anyone… 15 years later, I remain terrified of accusing someone of something they didn’t do, but I have a visual and physical memory of that.”
However, Sarah said she has a distinct memory that as they were “fooling around” at her place, Miller began “shaking me violently” and punched her in the mouth during sex…
Horrifying accusations for sure, but unlike most in Hollywood, Miller is disputing the accusations. Both he and his wife drafted an official statement in response, claiming that the accuser was a woman with a decade-long vendetta against Miller.
Kate & T.J. Miller’s statement:
We met this woman over a decade ago while studying together in… https://t.co/s0zJJR6V5M

If the Millers’ defense is true, this does prove that the wave of sexual assault associations drowning the entertainment industry and political sphere is officially claiming innocent victims. For as much schadenfreude as we’ve all experienced watching so many liberal, self-professed “champions of women” revealed as hypocrites, we don’t want to live in a world where a single unverified accusation can ruin a man’s life either.
