What questions does it raise?

If someone is repeatedly defending an abuser, despite all evidence and proof to the contrary, who is repeatedly told that he is wrong about victims not going back to their abusers. If that person them makes it very local to them. It raises the issue of their motives because there is no real reason to believe the victim is in the wrong.

You're not making it clear what you believe his motives are though,go on ,be brave.

Look, he just really liked Shakespeare in Love, okay?
 
'be brave' - alright edgy pal. I'm questioning what his motives are. I'm asking what they are.
But you are still asking a very open question,being more specific might get you a more meaningful response.But in saying that I doubt he's interested in what you post anyway.
 
Glad the scumbag got what he deserved but what sort of prison will he be going to? Sounds silly I know but I just hope that it won't be a comfortable one like the Wolf of Wall Street ended up in.
Rikers is an awful prison, notoriously bad conditions for the inmates.
Rikers Island has a reputation for violence, both abuse and neglect of inmates, attracting increased media and judicial scrutiny that has resulted in numerous rulings against the New York City government, and numerous assaults by inmates on uniformed and civilian staff, resulting in often serious injuries. In May 2013, Rikers Island ranked as one of the ten worst correctional facilities in the United States, based on reporting in Mother Jones magazine.[11] Violence on Rikers Island has been increasing in recent years. In 2015 there were 9,424 assaults, the highest number in five years.

Weinstein has yet to go there yet and I doubt he is faking the symptoms, going there even for a night would terrify me.

He is not so much defending Weinstein, as he is questioning the victimhood of the woman. Do you honestly think the jury didn't wonder why this woman continued to have sex with the guy, and send flirty emails? Those are valid questions.

Weinstein is scum, but it doesn't mean anyone alleging abuse, shouldn't be questioned about their actions.

I’d probably stop short of questioning victims who have been proven right in a court of law.
It is well known that victims can continue to interact and have relationships with their abusers. That you or he still cannot understand this and want to challenge it is your own issue.
