<p>&#8230;didn&#8217;t wait long to throw the barely cold body of her former lover under the bus when she <a href="https://pagesix.com/2018/08/21/asia-argento-denies-sexual-assault-says-payoff-was-anthony-bourdains-idea/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claimed</a> he was the one who pushed her to make a hush money payout to her underage loverboy. #YouToo?!</p>
<p>Those dead beta males&#8230;useful in a pinch when a psychoslag narcissist wants to burnish her public image and shift blame.</p>
<p>Argento, for those who don&#8217;t know, was one of the leading wights in the PoundMeToo movement, a first accuser in the Weinstein scandal. Now she&#8217;s hoist by her own poontard. And Harvey himself has <a href="http://smokeroom.com/2018/08/20/harvey-weinstein-responds-argento-assault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called her a hypocrite</a>. He may be a sleaze, but he&#8217;s not wrong. He was just a sleaze surrounded by sleazy women who enabled his sleaze. Infinite sleazeback loops.</p>
<p>Bourdain is emblematic of so many contextually alpha men who in their souls are still anxious, nipple-latching, outcome-dependent betaboys who can&#8217;t or won&#8217;t play the playettes. Soulless cunts like Argento feast on these types. And it&#8217;s not exactly a one-way street. Bourdain gets to tap ass that a non-famous Bourdain likely never touches.</p>
<p>Bourdain killed himself because he was distraught that his lover Asia Argento was a serial cheater who was probably cheating on him with 17yo boys. Bourdain&#8217;s Pain is existential; a tragic figure who didn&#8217;t fly too close to the sun&#8230;he flew straight into it. Happily. Suicidally.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s just another dreary dispatch from Clown World.</p>
