Weinstein potentially connected to Anthony Bourdain death
1 2018-06-08 by westsideilluminati
Anthony Bourdain was dating Asia Argento, an accuser of Weinstein..
Bourdain played a role in helping the victims advance their case, as well as was personally involved with one victim. There's a high potential in my mind that the suspected suicide has more behind it. Discuss.

I'm just blown away. Did he have any health issues come up? Pre dementia? What a big loss of a really cool guy. RIP Tony.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I know he had drug issues in his earlier years, so there's definitely a potential for over dose. However I wonder a lot. After following many of the Weinstein accusers, I noticed they had a common theme in that they all were harassed. He was quite proactive in helping them, supporting them and with the movement against Weinstein.. There's so many factors that could come into play.
1 Hippapalooza 2018-06-08
I saw a promo for his show on CNN a few days ago. He looked like shit.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I haven't seen anything as unfortunately they delay his show in Australia (if we get it at all) so that fuckin sucks to hear.
1 Hippapalooza 2018-06-08
This is probably a shit post, but I have a feeling these pictures of his girlfriend might have something to do with it.

Well it is the daily mail so I would take it with a grain of salt.. But there's always a potential.
1 khaosconn 2018-06-08
did you see the photos of her hanging off another dude...
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Yeah. But we don't exactly know the back story and again as I said it's the daily mail.
1 ScissoringButtholes 2018-06-08
My immediate thoughts went right to this. And Asia is super close with Rose McGowan, another very outward victim & accuser of Weinstein’s and someone who definitely got harassed by his goons. Ronan Farrow needs to report on this.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Same here! I just saw Rose's tributes on twitter and IG - I'm heart broken. I'm glad someone else felt the same too. I really do hope Farrow reports on this. There has to be a connection in my mind, because I do not believe he'd just suicide.
1 ScissoringButtholes 2018-06-08
Exactly. Like, Ronan Farrow seems to be one of the few journalists willing to entertain “wacky” notions that sinister shit is going down, so at worst finds nothing...but I’m certain that won’t be true. Doesn’t hurt that early life experiences with pedo dad shaped a lifelong vendetta for actual truth.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Absolutely. Couldn't agree more with you on this tbh out of all.
1 kingcubfan 2018-06-08
I have not heard of all those connections. There might be something to it, but I always like to look what would be to gain from the act. Maybe he had some information or witnessed something and "someone" took care of it. Time will tell.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
That's exactly the angle I'm taking on this, personally. Was there something he knew? Did he have certain information? Was he being harassed too? A lot of people have tried to call me crazy for suggesting these things on this thread, despite the fact I've posted it in conspiracy which I find beyond hilarious tbh, I thought this is the place to discuss such questions but hey hahaha keep down voting me guys! It's an honest lot of questions to ask, considering when you look at the information that's out there surrounding harassment from Weinstein to his accusers to the deepest of levels. I mean, hey. Anything is possible, and I'm not sure why people get the shits about something they disagree with being proposed as a theory but all I can think is that there is obviously a group here that are against open thinking, which is a pity.
1 REAPEROFDAKARMA 2018-06-08
Bourdain was a Pederast.. get ready for many many more to PURGE themselves.

Thank you!
1 kingcubfan 2018-06-08
I'll check it out. Two sides to lots of folks indeed
1 ItsWorthReading 2018-06-08
I didn't think Tony's personality would allow the entertaining of suicide. It didn't feel right to me when I read of it.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I agree totally. He had fought way too hard. Way too hard. And had so much future he had openly spoken about.
1 TurnedOnPowerTripper 2018-06-08
Tony is kind of a textbook case for suicide. Intense drug addict for years in his 20s. Insanely driven and puts his self worth in his success in professional and personal life. A very neurotic, constantly traveling and away from stability.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
That's very true. I was thinking that earlier actually. He was pretty open about his struggles in his early years but I did notice as time went by he sort of started to put a mask on especially when he split with his wife which gives me reason to believe he obviously, like any normal person who'd been in his situation life wise, that he wasn't too stable because of the constant travel
1 AlbanyHockey 2018-06-08
Did you know him personally or just what you saw on TV? I've know people personally who I thought was a happy person, lit up every room they walked into - dead at 23 due to suicide.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
That's true. I've lost my own father to suicide, as well as many friends. It can just happen, sadly.
1 AlbanyHockey 2018-06-08
If his GF suddenly turns back on her allegations and refuses to work with investigators with the Weinstien case, yes this then takes a turn for conspiracy land.
If not, it's likely just another one of the 50k people a year that kill themselves.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Agreed.
1 ddchum82 2018-06-08
You obviously know little about depression....I will tell you I didn't think I was the type....
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I know plenty thank you, if you'd been able to read you would of seen the discussions where I have spoken at length with others. Have a cry.
1 axolotl_peyotl 2018-06-08
If Asia knows anything, I truly hope she has the courage to speak up about it. My heart goes out to his entire family.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Agreed, she seems like a strong woman and I truly hope she continues on - I know in time she and the others will tell the world the entire truth once the time is right but that's just me. I feel so deeply for his daughter especially.
1 rljon 2018-06-08
Isn't she the one that actually publicly dated Harvey after the supposed harassment happened? I know for fact she was his official girlfriend at one point and scored a few movie roles after that. She always seemed like the least credible, playing the game victim in the whole Weinstein thing.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I cant say, as I don't know for sure but I will agree with you there.
1 MaraKnows 2018-06-08
I had read the suicide was by hanging
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
That's awful to hear.. But I guess we will (hopefully) get a cause of death in due time.
1 prlj 2018-06-08
We'll get what they tell us. That doesn't mean it's the actual cause of death.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
That's it. Until there's a formal autopsy we can't be sure. It could be anything from drugs to alcohol to other things.
1 prlj 2018-06-08
But even that might not be the truth. They’ll just tell us what they want us to know.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Exactly. Either way, there will be answers eventually
1 GranimalSnake 2018-06-08
As was Cornell...
1 MaraKnows 2018-06-08
As was Kate Spade, Chester Bennington, Robin Williams
1 StefanYellowCurry 2018-06-08
As was Kate Spade just this week too
1 LazyLibra84 2018-06-08
Funny thing is. Soon as I heard he was dead and the cause was suicide. My first thought was.
"I wonder how conspiracy will turn this into kid fucking or rape."
He fell in love with Asia. An attractive younger woman and she was losing interest and she was caught being very close with another man recently.
The fact is we don't know what happens behind closed doors. Maybe he was struggling with mental health and the pictures of Asia and this other man was too much for him.
1 alejandrologist 2018-06-08
Thanks for saying this. Depression is called the silent killer for a reason. People who truly have depression hide it very well. Sometimes family doesn’t even know about those demons. It seems like every single fucking thing that happens is some sort of conspiracy. Literally everything is a conspiracy.
1 Tacofangirl 2018-06-08
The point of this sub is to explore such speculations.
1 alejandrologist 2018-06-08
Very true.
1 bingcros 2018-06-08
I don't know.. I have depression and I mope around like a sullen girl.
1 alejandrologist 2018-06-08
My apologies. I shouldn’t have generalized it. I forget my experience is limited to my perspective and from what I’ve read. I just meant that we’re good at functioning when we have to. Like at work. No one except my close friend knows what I go through.
1 Correctthereddit 2018-06-08
Certainly it's possible he actually committed suffice. But it's also possible there was foul play.
We can consider both possibilities. We don't have to insist or believe it was one or the other.
There have been a number of suspicious celebrity suicides, and this is a sub for questioning everything.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Agreed with everyone here. I know personally that it is such a silent killer that there is definitely that possibility. And for sure, it would of hurt him immensely I think seeing those photos.
1 Dank--Ocean 2018-06-08
k but the man has a daughter. Who do you think is more important to him? Asia or Ariane?
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
I'd say his daughter. Always without a doubt. But that's an answer also influenced by their father taking their own life at a young age similar to Ariane. But as we know both personally and from what we see happen every day, when depression is so very silent especially amongst men it doesn't matter who is more important at the darkest of moments.
1 dallas1995 2018-06-08
It is something people will possibly speculate over. But after some time, the rumor mills will quieten down. However, if there happens to be real substance to what you're saying. there will be an investigation, I'm sure. But how can anyone make an assumption like that? The gentleman was in France at the time. If there is real suspicion, there are many ways to follow up on it nowadays.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Well this is true. I can't deny or disagree with the points you've made. It is purely speculation after all. We will know when the time comes at the end of the day, and there's many factors aside from this that come into play
1 dallas1995 2018-06-08
The thing is, a man who was living life to the full, was in a relationship which was going well, had a number of projects going on suddenly found to have killed himself? In situations like this, it's only natural to think there might be a conspiracy. Then again, it could have just been the old monster, depression. If someone manages to fit all the pieces of the puzzle together, it might be very interesting what comes up.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Absolutely man.
1 dallas1995 2018-06-08
Would you agree? It seems so. Thanks a lot.
1 wittor 2018-06-08
crazydaysandnights says it was cheating
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Yeah I've heard a lot of speculation about that. I'm sure we'll find out in due time.
1 Sydney_Shortier 2018-06-08
Link?
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Exactly. The only link I've been given is from the daily mail. That's hardly credible.
1 ggqq 2018-06-08
Possibly connected to pedoring, not that I'd want that to be the case. Loved the body of work he put out.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Agreed totally. I'd be insanely disappointed if that were to be the outcome.
1 Lethr4life 2018-06-08
Or maybe he suffered from depression like so many of us did and something (his gf) pushed him over the edge?
Not everything is connected to a conspiracy.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Not saying that isn't the case. As I've mentioned in a number of my comments, I have experienced on a personal level and can very much relate to what his daughter is going through especially. But, it is all speculation at the end of the day including the cheating.
1 venCiere 2018-06-08

Asia has an upside down cross tatooted on her forearm. Must be illuminati.

1 Dogeholio 2018-06-08
Bourdain had exactly ZERO influence on anything to do with the Weinstein case.
Hundreds of celebs tweeted that Weinstein was a POS and that is all Bourdain did.
Bourdain had a history of depression and drug addiction.
Methinks Op has let their imagination run away with them.
1 MementoMori511 2018-06-08
He is associated with a lady involved. IDK if Hollywood has the much power but this Wienstein guy is inhuman fat embarassing cunt. I wold not complain if we have gangs taking care of these evil cunts killing real men like Bourdain. LMAO if Weinstein is involved, I always shit talk evil Hollywood and their sick Pedos.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
It's called speculation, that is after all why the sub is called conspiracy - for you all let your minds run when it suits. Tweeting isn't all he did, if that's what you think that's fine. Whatever works for you right?
1 bashar_speaks 2018-06-08
Meh. He was a 61 year old white dude, his gf was leaving him, he's an addict, exactly the kind of demographic that commits suicide. He was a sensitive, intelligent, gentle soul who was vocally pro-immigrant rights and anti-sexist. Of course he want to get out of this shit plane called earth!
What I find interesting is the uptick in suicide in the news lately. Usually the topic is avoided because it encourages more suicides. Maybe now they want to encourage suicide? Thin the population?
Btw, I predict Jim Carey will commit suicide eventually.

1 Jurgrady 2018-06-08
He hadn't done heroin in decades, he got off that stuff a long long time ago. It actually kind of sad people still call him that.
1 Dank--Ocean 2018-06-08
he did mention in an interview that the only way hed commit suicide is through heroin
1 magnora7 2018-06-08
Look what I just came across...
This instagram message:
May 25th - Anthony Bourdain instagram post with video of Weinstein handing himself into police: "Last night I hear toothbrushes scrapin’ on the floor..” BYE BYE, dickhead"
Also these tweets:

He was clearly motivated and interested in this subject, especially since his ex was raped by Weinstein.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Exactly. Some have accused me of allowing my imagination to run wild - but this is s/conspiracy after all. He had an interest and there is potential.
1 MrWizard111 2018-06-08
I mean it sucks he died but I don't see how him being connected to Weinstein would have anything to do with it. For one Weinstein is nearly broke at this point. Two he has a lot working against him with so many accusing him. Three killing Bourdain literally gives him no advantage and helps his case in no way. Weinstein is fucked with or without bourdain in the picture.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Sure, Weinstein is nearly broke at this point but that means nothing. If one is to believe the victims on the topic of the harassment they endured from him, whilst building their case then anything is possible. Open mind.
1 Bankster- 2018-06-08
I don't get it either, but he was very clearly CIA.
1 whynotdsocialist 2018-06-08
The "love" of his life Asia Argento was caught in photos with another much younger guy flouncing around Rome. He made a big deal about how brave she was with Weinstein & found out she is a tramp. He probably really loved her & felt like a dope besides being depressed.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Speculation, again - but potential. No one has confirmed she was cheating. No one reliable source has proven it. It's the daily fucking mail, but everyone's willing to believe it? Come on
1 TheGreenAbe 2018-06-08
He was pretty open about his depression and heroin/cocaine addictions. He probably killed himself OP. It's sucks.
1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Undoubtedly, but he was also open with his battle to stay clean - he kept busy with various hobbies including putting together his own comics and perusing jijujitsu. I just find it hard to believe. And there's always a possibility that there's more to the story, of course we won't know that for some time to come, but I do hope in due course we find that this is the case and nothing more sinister.
1 drunkmanonreddit 2018-06-08
I initially thought he was murdered too, until I saw how "close" Asia and Hugo clement are lately. Holding hands, embracing, her touching is lower stomach as they walked... Fucking weird.

1 westsideilluminati 2018-06-08
Agreed. I still wonder if there's more or even less to it, I mean the only source available seemingly on the subject is from DM - which as many of us know aren't exactly the best at what they do, and love a bit of sensationalism, BUT. In saying that there has been enough evidence photograph wise to show there may be a lot we don't know. We may never know, sadly. And if it is the case she cheated on him I will of lost all respect for her and many other of her friends.
