Celebrity hypocrisy

[image deleted]
DragonFruit · 61-69, M
There’s a concept here called “acting”. One can play the part of a villain or that of a hero....it doesn’t mean that the person feels that way in real life. Likewise, one can play the part of a politician who is a conservative or one who is a liberal without actually adopting that as their own personal viewpoint.
I’m an Army veteran, but don’t watch many military based films....that doesn’t mean I’m opposed to someone doing a military based film.
Acting and filmmaking are artistic endeavors made for entertainment and profit. Actors and filmmakers are people. The point of view expressed in a film isn’t necessarily the viewpoint of the actor or the filmmaker.
I can enjoy the film whether or not I know the actor’s personal viewpoint.....and I believe that the actor has as much right to state his own viewpoint as I do (even if we disagree). I’m not going to boycott an actor’s films due to the fact that I disagree with him....though I reserve the right to do so for other reasons if I see fit.

@johnny253 its funny how things become justified when it's stuff you like or close to you
johnny253 · 70-79, M
@Deadcutie I'll bet you watched his movie.
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@johnny253 I did, and loved it, but I'm not calling for Gunn control, I'm perfectly fine sacrificing 30 people a day

You are correct, just like DeCaprio, he flies around in a personal jet that uses tons of fuel, wears synthetic clothes made from oil and promotes supposedly green energy that causes the death of thousands of animals. There are other actors / actresses that protested oil pipelines yet they do not protest trains hauling oil that have caused larger oil spills and killed more people, and these idiots are in photos at the pipeline protests wearing clothes made from petroleum. Where is their logic?

Farmers raise corn and say they feed the world yet 80% of their corn goes to ethanol, they use fertilizer, herbicides, insecticides and use fuel to plant, spray and harvest the crop all using petroleum. Not to mention thousands of cubic feet of natural gas to make the ethanol from corn and that natural gas came from fracking. The ethanol lowers fuel economy in cars so we burn more fuel. Why aren't these phonies protesting ethanol?

Except he plays a highly trained person with a gun in those movies, not billy bob joe who dropped out of the 8th grade and can barely tie their laces never mind use a gun safely

@Footballstar you either have them or you don't ..and if we are going to start pushing mental health issues, then one of the first places to start is the amount of gun violence our youth is subjected to in movies, tv and video games
Footballstar · 26-30, M
@Deadcutie you either have them or you don't. That is honestly one of the most idiotic arguments for guns i have ever heard😂😂
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
what's idiotic is you think it's about gunns
TheProphet · M
They have always been hypocrites on every issue.
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
And he has armed security and lives in a fortress.
Are there bigger hypocrites anywhere in the world? MAGA, give me a break.
@Blushark Do you think about me whacking off a lot?
Blushark · M
Your mother told me what a jerkoff loser you were in between moans.
Took you long enough to come up with that drivel, Fag.
Jibby · 56-60, C
Absolutely... and I'm wondering why the Hypocrites. still have black actor and actress categories at their Awards ceremonies
johnny253 · 70-79, M
There are two parts to an actor. His acting and his personal viewpoints
acpguy · C
@johnny253 Both are fake.

im sure there are plenty of hypocrites in hollywood, but this is a bad example
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
@SW-User probably so, but I didn't make the meme.. nor do I know actually who the anti/pro Gunn advocates are.

However, the movie industry in general has no standing whatsoever in speaking out about gunn violence when it produces and makes billions on some of the most graphicly violent and gratuitous gunn orgies ever created in our culture
Blushark · M
It's no coincidence that Hollywood and Hypocrisy both begin with the same letter. 😉
SW-User
Absolutely! I’ve noticed about Matt Damon. Fucking asswipe
Deadcutie · 18-21, F
But I'm still gonna watch the movies lol
HoraceGreenley · 56-60, M
Do as I say...not as I do
SAandME · 56-60, M

Indy films are better anyway.
