WOW!!!!
It’s been made pretty clear this week that Matt Damon has some supremely shitty (and wrong!) opinions about sexual harassment, Harvey Weinstein, Louis C.K., and more stuff like that, but thankfully, Alyssa Milano just put him in his place!!!

Milano took to Twitter late last night to pen an open letter criticizing the Good Will Hunting star for his take on sexual harassment and the “culture of outrage,” and Milano’s intelligent, biting response is EVERYTHING!!!
Ch-ch-check it out (below):
Dear Matt Damon,
It’s the micro that makes the macro.

We are in a “culture of outrage” because the magnitude of rage is, in fact, overtly outrageous. And it is righteous.

I have been a victim of each component of the sexual assault spectrum of which you speak. They all hurt. And they are all connected to a patriarchy intertwined with normalized, accepted–even welcomed– misogyny.

We are not outraged because someone grabbed our asses in a picture. We are outraged because we were made to feel this was normal. We are outraged because we have been gaslighted. We are outraged because we were silenced for so long.

There are different stages of cancer. Some more treatable than others. But it’s still cancer.

Sexual harassment, misconduct, assault and violence is a systemic disease. The tumor is being cut out right now with no anesthesia. Please send flowers. #MeToo

Bravo, Alyssa!!
Maybe next time, Matt Damon will think before he speaks.
