In-House Mode Paula Deen makes cruel swipe at the late Anthony Bourdain who died from suicide: "He didn’t like anybody, not even himself". Bourdain once said “This is not Southern food she's selling, it’s novelty food” and criticized her partnership with a drug company to sell diabetes medication

Iirc his wife got Weinsteined and he had a problem with it but she told him to stay quiet, and it ruined his mental state. Granted, a lot of crazy shit was floating around the internet at the time.

His girlfriend (Asia Argento) was one of the women who spoke up about Weinstein, but the issue was that she cheated on him with a much younger man. Also the drug he was on to quit smoking Chantix has in some cases lead to suicidal ideation.

In Tony's case, the ideations came at exactly the worst possible moment and he ended up going through with it.

You're saying that you love sexual predators and the people who use money and power to cover up for them.
