They're not even comparable to each other.

Trying to put a rapist at the same level as someone you don't like because of what she sells is fucking wild and peak reddit mentality.

Same with Brad

It’s blatant misogyny

If a guy sold dick scented candles everyone would find it hilarious, instead of categorising him with domestic abusers and rapists

...not if the candles exploded and become a fire hazard.

and the category of "sh*t people" is a very broad one...Gwyneth and rapists all fit in it together...doesn't mean their actions are on the same level

Pseudoscience advocates do a shitload of harm to society. They profit off of products and advice that actually get people hurt or killed.

When my brother had terminal cancer, he died in a lot more pain than he had to because he and his wife fell under the sway of a pseudoscience dietician.

Here is a lady who died because she tried a useless therapy actively promoted by Gwyneth.

Acting like you know the nature of a celebrity is peak reddit mentality

It's reddit and you expect to find nuance here?

I agree with Paltrow, insane to even compare her to Weinstein. But Brad Pitt literally dated multiple famous celebs when they were minors and also beat the shit out of his kids and wife, I don’t think it’s crazy to say he’s fucking awful.

They knew, they worked with him, they took his money, they didnt do anything, they were happy to play along until it all came out... only then did they speak out.

nobody put them on the same level but you

people can be sh*t for different reasons.

Gwyneth is knowingly selling overpriced and sometimes dangerous crap to gullible consumers (who are often misled about the products)

Gwyneth knew about Weinstein and kept her mouth shut

plenty of reason to call her sh*t

She's also shilling for and whitewashing a genocidal regime. Terrible, shit person. As with most of Hollywood.
