The accusations against men in entertainment and politics are numerous enough that they can now be edited into a remix of Billy Joel’s 1989 hit “We Didn’t Start the Fire.”
Writer Ed Solomon (Men in Black, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure) posted this tweet on Thursday, based on a suggestion by Twitter user @bornmiserable. “We Didn’t Start the Ire” will no doubt have to be edited to include more sexual predators, and it doesn’t include every name (hey, it had to rhyme), but it’s a good starting point.
Of course with President Donald Trump, a man accused of sexual assault himself, in the White House and on Twitter, there could be a new version of this every day.
Some people asked if I could do this as a screen shot and not a thread, so here we go. (And again, thanks to @bornmiserable for the idea) pic.twitter.com/Px6E7ZepKW
