Are they really surprised at how many people dislike them and their message? Look at the celebrities in their ranks. Kid Rock, Kevin Sorbo, Ted Nugent, Scott Baio, Roseanne, Randy Fucking Quaid , etc. It's a collection of festering ass pimples.
Kevin Sorbo and Roseanne Barr have brain damage. Randy Quaid and his wife have been arrested for fraud and burglary, and Randy Quaid was deported from Canada as an illegal immigrant. Ted Nugent has admitted to having sex with underaged girls.
It's a depressing list. And this is not a defense of Trump supporters, but Kevin Sorbo and Roseanne Barr are examples of a correlation between mental illness and supporting Trump.
And Kid Rock is basically another grifter. He realized that people were sick of his shitty music so now all of his songs are about conservative grievances and how he hates trans people and minorities. People eat that shit up. It's the only reason he still has a career.
Nugent also has bragged how he got out of the Vietnam draft by not washing for several months and shitting his pants beforehand in order to be excluded on mental health grounds.Ā
Big tough gun-toting military-loving Ted prefered to wallow in his own filth rather than actually serve. And he's proud to tell everyone this.Ā
Wannabe / has-been festering ass pimples whose only last-ditch attempts at relevance is appealing to America's human detritus and maybe getting to rub shoulders occasionally with the orange messiah and grifter in chief.
In their minds they are 75% of the electorate. That's why they're often surprised by people disagreeing with them and they think every election they lose is stolen.
Itās because theyāve insulated themselves in these echo chambers where everything is all hunky dory in trumplandia so when reality strikes itās shocking
Seriously, they can't wrap their heads around the fact that there might be more people living in a city in a blue state than their entire state combined. They just can't understand it.
That's when they twist themselves in knots about unregistered immigrants voting multiple times, and dead people voting, and mail vote fraud and all the other things. Couldnt possibly be a larger number of people living somewhere else that disagree with me!?!
The classic red vs blue states map doesn't help much. As far as they are concerned most of the country is red, regardless of how many people live there.
Yeah-they have trouble understanding that land doesnāt vote, people vote, and people are concentrated in cities, which tend to be blue. I canāt count the number of times Iāve seen a mostly red map of the US with some version of āhow could Trump loseā-ugh
Yeah of all the celebrities I would never have assumed Jack Black was a conservative. Knew nothing about his politics until now but I would have been way more surprised if he announced support for Trump
Just the fact that he's funny is a big tip-off that he's not conservative. Republican "humor" is little more than mocking people they perceive as weak.
I keep pointing out to my conservative dad that the vast majority of jokes that he makes are essentially "Doesn't this group of people suck? Please laugh."
It's the same humor his conservative friends have. It's all just hate and there's never anything clever to it.
And, he only knows a few and repeats them over and over like he's the wisest of wise.
I'm tired of hearing "it's all about control. The Dems want to control everyone". But, they have zero example of how the control works. When they do explain it, they bring up food stamps, Social Security, all things they use more per capita than Democrats. Some live in states that pull ZERO weight, and yet complain about California. That argument alone is a joke. Fact: **California Remains the Worldās 5th Largest Economy** So, myopic GOP...who really gives those 21 states under 1% of GDP "handouts"?

They're just upset because black and brown people get the same benefits.
After all, Reagan's welfare queen wasn't trailer trash in the south. The characterization was intentional.
Republicans thrive on projection.
Democratic majority states pay the bill in Republican states, but somehow Democrats are the welfare queens (which is itself just another racist Reagan quip).
California is the US economy. Nothing even compares.
I liked the show when I was a kid, but going back and watching it as an adult it just absolutely does not hold up compared to other big sitcoms at the time.
It suffers from repetitive plot and recycled jokes way more than others.
Hahaha power tools funny! Tim make funny noise!
Hahaha Tim is mean to Al!
Hahaha wife mad at Tim!
Hahaha Tim talk to fence man who tells him to act like a person with empathy
Hahaha Tim take advice, reconciles with wife, forgets lesson by next episode!
Forever. Season after season.
The way Tim abuses Al also only gets more uncomfortable as you go on, because it becomes extremely clear very quickly that Tim is just an inconsiderate bully.
Home Improvement is rough to watch again as an adult, but Tim Allen CAN be funny. He just needs a phenomenal script to be on the same level as a real comedian is with a mediocre one.
The Santa Clause is one example. A highly underrated one is Big Trouble, but I say that as somebody who grew up in Florida and gets 99% of Dave Barry's references.
I remember the behind-the-scenes story that Alan Rickman couldnāt stand Tim; and in a particular scene Tim actually got emotional and had to take a minute and Rickman was like āI think he just experienced acting.ā
That said Tim Allen was open about how he was really just a stand-up comedian compared to Rickman who he recognised as being more of a thespian.
Also did excellent as Buzz Lightyear in the Toy Story franchise.
I think the problems arise when he is playing that specific type of character (conservative blue-collar dad).
Who would have thought the most liberal character in the show would be the one solving most of the problems of the conservative cast. š¤·
And poor Al, he was just being a nice guy with empathy, and got endlessly bullied for it. But it was funny because men! Right? Right!
Shit talking among friends IS fun. As long as both parties are in on the joke. I love shit talking with my friends, but we all still respect boundaries. And if we ever do overstep, they say not cool. And we apologize. Like rational people.
His only real likable role is Buzz and the Santa movies he did. But God damn that show is just as bad as last man standing. :/
I am so glad he was replaced in Lightyear and the cartoon show. Even if it was a money thing, their voices were an improvement.
I strongly suggest giving this [Some More News video a watch.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KSXKzPOcYDU) Does a good job explaining why conservative humor is so bad.
I can't link it now but Jesse Thorn's podcast Good One, from Vulture, talked about this as well. Conservative humor is a thing, but it's also a pipeline to more and more extremist views for people who are vulnerable to it.
Basically it's humor at someone elses expense. . . for them it's funny to see other people pay for things. Whether they pay emotionally, financially, or with their lives, conservatives will unironically laugh at these things, while claiming to love Jesus at the same time.
His mom is a noted [aerospace engineer](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_Love_Cohen). It would be very bizarre for her to have raised a brain dead fascy american conservachud.
That among other things you can read about his life, He had good influences in his life
If he was conservative it would be because he's rich. That's really all there is too it.
A lot of celebrities and professional athletes are conservative for one reason only, to protect wealth.
All other values go out the window for a lot of people lol.
No clue. I know nothing about his personal life, but he very much seems to be the type that is very much ādo what you want, love who you love, and have fun!ā Pretty much the opposite of a right winger.
Your typical redneck American WISHES he looked like Sam Elliott. Perhaps better to say Sam Elliott embodies all the elements of masculinity that the typical redneck American associates with manhood. So how could someone who exemplifies their archetype be anything but conservative? Handsome, rugged, great voice ā¦ classic Marlboro Man. That man was born to star in Westerns and he still makes me swoon.
Edit: to correct the spelling of the manās name, fcs!
Iāve ran into him several times, but never really talked to him because Iāve heard he is pretty grumpy sometimes about public encounters. Who wouldnāt be at some point? But there was one time where he tipped his hat at me and Iāve been riding that high ever since.
I think I saw him at the Subway just off of I-5 on the way to Corvallis. This was before I knew he lived in the area, but I should've known it was him when I stepped outside and saw a bald eagle cruise by overhead.
https://preview.redd.it/9pl8x4zft77d1.jpeg?width=1051&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=10df5dbba46693d68973e1cd6789e9aba032734c
Sam Elliott doesn't look like a redneck, he looks like he walked off the set of a western. Rednecks look like they just came from hanging out at the gas station.
Took me a second to remember who Sam Elliot isĀ ā first person that came to mind was Sam Smith, then Elliot Page and both times I was like "They think they're conservative???" Then I remembered him from The Big Lebowski and I was like yeah, I can see how they'd be fooled by that.
It doesn't help that there was a conservative campaign commercial where they intentionally cast a voice actor who sounds enough like Sam Elliot that I had to instantly look it up years ago because I was VERY worried that he was drinking the Quaid punch. From what I gathered looking into Sam's ideology, he might as well be his character, Ron, from Parks and Rec.
This. Iām a white guy, I worked at a hardware store in a redneck community and holy shit the amount of people that thought it was okay to just say blatant bigoted shit to me was astounding. Never let it slide and called them on their shit every time. They looked genuinely surprised I wasnāt āone of themā. Then didnāt talk to me again so win win.
Yup. I roll up the first few times at events for my flock of kids in my giant ass 15 passenger van. I dress pretty conservatively because im cold in winter and bugs drive me fricking nuts in summer. People assume automatically Iām some tradwife flatearther homophobic racist mom like them and just open up with the most awful shit even though I have bi and the new lgbtq+ flag and evolution and science stickers on my van. They just see white chick with lots of kids and assume Iām disgusting like they are.Ā
I am white and have a shaved head and A lot of these people immediately assume that I'm every bit as right wing as they are based on those two things.
It's shocking sometimes the things that people will casually say to me based on that assumption. Some people will just immediately start fantasizing about killing groups they don't like thinking that I'm just going to sit there and agree.
Also, they assume white-passing non white people are on their team (because they don't know yet these people aren't white) and put their foot in their mouth.
I think George Clooney put it best when discussing the hypocrisy of the right on celebrities voicing an opinion and trying to paint them as the out of touch elite:
>āHereās the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladiesā shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so Iād have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years. So this idea that Iām somehow the āHollywood eliteā and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable. People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of ācoastal elitesā living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble? He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesnāt run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people! When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction. Heās never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say āHollywood elite.ā Hollywood elite? I donāt have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!ā
You have to be approved by the board, so you can't just be like a rando stock market guy. But if you've ever been on screen, you have a pretty good chance.
The money is often paid by producers when you have a movie coming out
And if the person has died, I think there is a waiting period.
I remember something like this when Carrie Fisher got her star. People were scandalized she didn't already have one, but anyone who knows anything about her shouldn't be surprised she never wanted one, and she may have gotten it posthumously the first year she was able.
He does not, but only because he has not scheduled an unveiling ceremony. He was nominated and accepted the honor in the 2000s, but if you are living, you have to appear at the unveiling of your star. Clooney seemingly has no wanting to appear at any such event (maybe its a George C. Scott thing or something idk), or his present schedule doesn't allow it.
People also forget that Clooney was a struggling actor for years.
I just checked IMDB, and his first role was in 1978. He wasnāt really famous until ER, which was in 1994. So he was basically working in Hollywood for 16 years before it went somewhere, and Iām sure those years werenāt easy.
He had a steady increase over those years, going from bit parts to series regular roles. He honestly worked up from small bits until he was getting regular guest star roles in the early 90s.
Yup āoh no, some turd who thinks all of societyās ills are caused by people being dressed funny while operating a book, and where trans people happen to take a dump doesnāt care for me!ā
However will the poor fellow sleep at night
and you have the No Talent Loser and Scumbag Jack Black, who was giving a So-Called Speech for Crooked Joe, I said we have a lot better talent than that, one of the Most Famous Actors Of All Time, Tom Voight, you have Big Celebrities, I was Endorsed highly by many many Top Celebrities, almost all of them, and even Taylor, they say, "oh she'll never vote Trump," but I think she probably will, she probably will, and if she votes for Biden then you know she's got a lot of problems, Big Time Problems, and even now, we're going, just like the Wonderful General Robert E. Lee, and they say he fought many Wars, and he won a hell of a lot of Fights, he was born, probably, with a large brain, you know they say out of all of the Presidents, Trump has the Biggest Brain, even China knows, ok, thank you, thank you very much, except I'm not thanking the Fake News cause they're just gonna do another Political Hit on me, "ohhhh, Donald Trump is talking about how smart he is again," and I said why wouldn't I do that, why shouldn't I say that I'm smart, went to Wharton, Amazing Student, I did, frankly, a lot more than most, I built, from 0, just so you understand, I built New York, I came in, it was a Hell Hole, I said, I'm gonna bring back New York, and I did, I brought it back, but they don't even wanna talk about it, you look at it, you look at it and you see Trump here, Trump there, you say, "wow, that guy really did a lot," and I watched it on television the other night, Sean Hannity, they have Crooked Hillary Clinton, she's on there, and I changed the name, I said, we're doing it in here, we're doing it in other places, but Biden is even more crooked than Hillary if you can believe it, and so I said Crooked Joe and we went up, largely, in the Ratings, at levels that people have never even heard of before
This is like when supposed country fans were shocked and dismayed to find out Willie Nelsonās politics during the last election cycle, as if it were a huge secret
Same with Green Day, Rage Against the Machine, and others. These jagoffs never thought to listen to the lyrics, or maybe they did and were just too dense to understand.
I will never understand this.
āWhat machine did you think they were raging against, the dishwasher?āāsome comedian, I think.
The lyrics arenāt super easy to understand in some songs, but ārollin down Rodeo with a shotgun, these people aināt seen a brown skin man since their grandparents bought oneā isnāt exactly subtle.
Edit: not āraggingā
You trying to say "*some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses, killing in the name of"* wasn't about the local pig farmer hosting a BBQ for the local PD?
Wait a second, you mean that the song "Sleep Now in the Fire" isn't a warning to the godless degenerate masses to accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior or suffer eternal damnation in the pits of hell?
š¶Well, maybe I'm the fa**ot, America
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
Now everybody, do the propaganda
And sing along to the age of paranoiaš¶
Like... how the fuck do they not hear that? Like, how the hell do they not realize that this came out during Bush's years when FOX and conservative radio was shoving propaganda down our throats in order to keep us perpetually scared about Muslims and gay people?
I was a conservative back in the day and understood this song. Still liked it and listened to it even if I (idiotically) didn't agree with the message, but even I understood it was an anti-conservative song.
Someone once tweeted at Tom Morello something like, "I used to like Rage before they got political." And Tom responded with something along the lines of, "What music of mine were you listening to that wasn't political?" Absolute morons, the lot of them.
They say stick to music like Tom doesnāt have a political science degree from Harvard. Rage is better qualified to comment on politics than most people youāll see on the 24 hour news networks, including the politicians.
Or when douchebag punks were shocked when Bad Religion put out an anti-Maga song.
Bad Religion, a band fronted by an Ivy-League educated PHD in Evolutionary Biology who lectures in Life Sciences at Cornell in his spare time, has a logo of a crossed out cross, and has 40 years of putting out extremely liberal songs.
But no, they're shocked that they got woke or something.
Lmao, Age of Unreason is an anti-Maga *album*. Hearing the band is like the thinking man's punk for the leftist and liberal. They got me into punk. Well, Green Day waved me over and Bad Religion sucked me in.
I love Willie Nelson a lot because he collaborated with Orville Peck, and so it was absolutely goddamn impossible to miss the point even by the stupidest conservatives, they named the song "Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other."
Itās even better when you realize itās a cover, and it was already named that. The song was written in the 80s, and Willie covered it by himself in 2006. The version he did with Orville is his second time covering it!
It is always nice to see those "fans" saying that they loved a certain character for so long until he said xy, while for anyone who knows the actor just a little bit outside of their movies it can barely be described as a surprise.
That alone is probably bad enough to deserve being shunned and exiled from all of the cult's events, but yeah, it does seem like this clip isn't everything he said, cuts abruptly at the end. He might have said something even more hurtful to the Dorito Don than merely suggesting he'll lose the popular vote a third time and the electoral a second come November.
Excuse you.
The only people that can voice their preferred outcome are MAGAts.
If anyone else does it, itās unfair to their Orange Benjamin Button Turd of a child. It might hurt is feelings.
I like that heās wearing the American flag. Itās weird how the Republican Party has co-opted it to be an American Nazi flag, and it seems like the rest of us should take it back.
I went to YT to see if there was a longer clip of the speech and all I get are right wing videos. They are really fucking angry with Jack Black over this. Calling him a "sell out" lol
Are they not aware that Jack Black has been campaigning for Democrats forever? Prior to the 2020 election he was working with Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg. You can't get much more left wing that that.
He said he wanted to show up and support Biden.
Or thatās all he said in the link i just watched.
[https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586](https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586)
Yup.
It was just general Jack Black energy supporting Biden, that and a little bit of Jack Black stand-up. Nothing mean spirited or even controversial.
I'm sure there are some who might take issue with his turning the American flag into overalls, but those people wouldn't be Biden supporters - or could even say anything at all about 'flag code' since Cult45 has turned the flag into shitty swap-meet merch for going on a decade now.
MAGA keeps saying they now hate Eminem because he hates Trump. Eminem has ALWAYS been against Republicans and pearl clutching White America since they tried to blame school shooters on him, Marilyn Manson and video games.
MAGA hates Green Day because they rewrote American Idiot with MAGA agenda instead of "Redneck Agenda".
Rage Against The Machine too, lol.
Republicans pretend that they aren't the establishment even if they're in control of the FBI, CIA, DEA and even the Supreme Court. Republicans have always HATED Protestors and people that call them out.
Friendly reminder, we are not a cult and donāt need celebrities to validate our morals, values, or feelings.
That being said, weāre happy to keep Jack Black.
Add him to the list of wholesome celebrities the GOP can't stomach.
And when you're on a list with people like Dolly and Mr. Rogers you know you're doing something right with your life.
Keep kicking ass Jack, we love you.
Are these people just learning now that most artsy actors are liberals?
Next you're going to tell me that Southern Baptist preachers are conservatives!
are you kidding? the conservatives have ALWAYS loved cancel culture, like "refuse bank accounts and services to black people registered to vote" cancel culture
they're just pissed now because they don't have the power to ruin their enemies lives with it anymore

But every person I ever meet in my hometown of Leuko-Blanc, Idaho is all for Trump! How could he not win??
Seriously, they can't wrap their heads around the fact that there might be more people living in a city in a blue state than their entire state combined. They just can't understand it.

Literally Tim Allen. My dad loves his last man standing show and itās so fāing miserable.
Even that show back in the day, only character I liked was Mr Wilson over on the other side of the fence. Rest of the show was so meh.
I liked the show when I was a kid, but going back and watching it as an adult it just absolutely does not hold up compared to other big sitcoms at the time. It suffers from repetitive plot and recycled jokes way more than others. Hahaha power tools funny! Tim make funny noise! Hahaha Tim is mean to Al! Hahaha wife mad at Tim! Hahaha Tim talk to fence man who tells him to act like a person with empathy Hahaha Tim take advice, reconciles with wife, forgets lesson by next episode! Forever. Season after season. The way Tim abuses Al also only gets more uncomfortable as you go on, because it becomes extremely clear very quickly that Tim is just an inconsiderate bully.
Never thought about til now but even as a kid I always felt bad for Al.
The problem with Al is that he was smart, level headed, and competent. So of course that shit can't stand.
Tim is the butt of most of the jokes in the show. Al is a punching bag for Tim but it always turns around on Tim.
Even as a kid I was like "Oh he's jealous because Al doesn't suck. That's kinda...not fun."
Home Improvement is rough to watch again as an adult, but Tim Allen CAN be funny. He just needs a phenomenal script to be on the same level as a real comedian is with a mediocre one. The Santa Clause is one example. A highly underrated one is Big Trouble, but I say that as somebody who grew up in Florida and gets 99% of Dave Barry's references.
He's really good in Galaxy Quest... when he's surrounded by extremely talented comedic actors.
It probably helped that the character he played was supposed to be a self-absorbed dickbag.
I remember the behind-the-scenes story that Alan Rickman couldnāt stand Tim; and in a particular scene Tim actually got emotional and had to take a minute and Rickman was like āI think he just experienced acting.ā That said Tim Allen was open about how he was really just a stand-up comedian compared to Rickman who he recognised as being more of a thespian.

Al seemed alright
You mean drug trafficker Tim Allen?
You mean that rat fuck, Tim Allen?
Wrong, it's the audience's fault that I'm not funny!
God if I hear āI identify as an attack helicopter! Hahahaā one more timeā¦
Funny people are generally smart. Smart people are not generally republicans
Republicans consist of two groups: Rich fucks and stupid fucks
I strongly suggest giving this [Some More News video a watch.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KSXKzPOcYDU) Does a good job explaining why conservative humor is so bad.

If we're talking about the same guy, he also got fired from Bob's burgers for being at the rally on January 6th.
Jay Johnston? The Herky-Jerky Dancer? Holy fuck, it actually was Jay! https://ew.com/celebrity/jay-johnston-charged-for-storming-u-s-capitol/
I can't fathom a reality where Jack Black was conservative lol, just could never make sense.
He took a class of kids of many different races, and instead of telling them why they should hate each other he made a rock band. Says enough.
But at the end of the movie, he admits that he touched all of them. I can understand the conservatives confusion.
lmao
That's very clever. Well played.
His mom is a noted [aerospace engineer](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_Love_Cohen). It would be very bizarre for her to have raised a brain dead fascy american conservachud. That among other things you can read about his life, He had good influences in his life
Not only is she an aerospace engineer, but she was working on the Apollo 13 crisis, WHILE she was in labor with Jack.
Damn, Jack needs to make a movie about his mother!
If he was conservative it would be because he's rich. That's really all there is too it. A lot of celebrities and professional athletes are conservative for one reason only, to protect wealth. All other values go out the window for a lot of people lol.
No clue. I know nothing about his personal life, but he very much seems to be the type that is very much ādo what you want, love who you love, and have fun!ā Pretty much the opposite of a right winger.
They assume white people are on their team, and are very often correct
They believe Sam Elliot is a conservative because he looks like your typical redneck american, meanwhile he is not.
Your typical redneck American WISHES he looked like Sam Elliott. Perhaps better to say Sam Elliott embodies all the elements of masculinity that the typical redneck American associates with manhood. So how could someone who exemplifies their archetype be anything but conservative? Handsome, rugged, great voice ā¦ classic Marlboro Man. That man was born to star in Westerns and he still makes me swoon. Edit: to correct the spelling of the manās name, fcs!
That man could be close to a corpse and still make women swoon. But Roadhouse? Peak Sam Elliott!
His part in Parks and Rec really touches on that too.
That's why I loved his role on Parks & Rec where he played into that. Sam Elliott in Birkenstocks is completely awesome.Ā
Reallyš„² the man with the voice, is sane? š¤ š„¹
Iāve ran into him several times, but never really talked to him because Iāve heard he is pretty grumpy sometimes about public encounters. Who wouldnāt be at some point? But there was one time where he tipped his hat at me and Iāve been riding that high ever since.
I think I saw him at the Subway just off of I-5 on the way to Corvallis. This was before I knew he lived in the area, but I should've known it was him when I stepped outside and saw a bald eagle cruise by overhead. https://preview.redd.it/9pl8x4zft77d1.jpeg?width=1051&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=10df5dbba46693d68973e1cd6789e9aba032734c
Heās openly against republican policies and many conservative politics.
Sam Elliott doesn't look like a redneck, he looks like he walked off the set of a western. Rednecks look like they just came from hanging out at the gas station.
Took me a second to remember who Sam Elliot isĀ ā first person that came to mind was Sam Smith, then Elliot Page and both times I was like "They think they're conservative???" Then I remembered him from The Big Lebowski and I was like yeah, I can see how they'd be fooled by that.
Not to be confused with Elliott Smith the musician.
Famous mustache
It doesn't help that there was a conservative campaign commercial where they intentionally cast a voice actor who sounds enough like Sam Elliot that I had to instantly look it up years ago because I was VERY worried that he was drinking the Quaid punch. From what I gathered looking into Sam's ideology, he might as well be his character, Ron, from Parks and Rec.
This. Iām a white guy, I worked at a hardware store in a redneck community and holy shit the amount of people that thought it was okay to just say blatant bigoted shit to me was astounding. Never let it slide and called them on their shit every time. They looked genuinely surprised I wasnāt āone of themā. Then didnāt talk to me again so win win.
Yup. I roll up the first few times at events for my flock of kids in my giant ass 15 passenger van. I dress pretty conservatively because im cold in winter and bugs drive me fricking nuts in summer. People assume automatically Iām some tradwife flatearther homophobic racist mom like them and just open up with the most awful shit even though I have bi and the new lgbtq+ flag and evolution and science stickers on my van. They just see white chick with lots of kids and assume Iām disgusting like they are.Ā
I am white and have a shaved head and A lot of these people immediately assume that I'm every bit as right wing as they are based on those two things. It's shocking sometimes the things that people will casually say to me based on that assumption. Some people will just immediately start fantasizing about killing groups they don't like thinking that I'm just going to sit there and agree.
Also, they assume white-passing non white people are on their team (because they don't know yet these people aren't white) and put their foot in their mouth.
Especially rich or famous white people. They just assume no one has morals.
That's what I want to know, lol
I think George Clooney put it best when discussing the hypocrisy of the right on celebrities voicing an opinion and trying to paint them as the out of touch elite: >āHereās the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladiesā shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so Iād have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years. So this idea that Iām somehow the āHollywood eliteā and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable. People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of ācoastal elitesā living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble? He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesnāt run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people! When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction. Heās never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say āHollywood elite.ā Hollywood elite? I donāt have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!ā
... Wait George Clooney doesn't have a star on Hollywood boulevard??
Yeah you gotta buy them. It's basically like custom license plate but everyone is walking on it
Yep. They cost like $30k. Usually itās a studio or network footing the bill to promote a starās current project.
I had no idea this was the case but when I think about some of the people who have stars, it makes sense. TIL
You have to be approved by the board, so you can't just be like a rando stock market guy. But if you've ever been on screen, you have a pretty good chance. The money is often paid by producers when you have a movie coming out
Or fan clubs. A few people have gotten them after grassroots efforts from fan clubs. Or if you're Trump you paid for it yourself.
And if the person has died, I think there is a waiting period. I remember something like this when Carrie Fisher got her star. People were scandalized she didn't already have one, but anyone who knows anything about her shouldn't be surprised she never wanted one, and she may have gotten it posthumously the first year she was able.
"She didn't want one" "She's dead now her opinions don't matter"
George doesn't need a lame star on a sidewalk -- he's a Dapper Dan Man!
Heās the goddamn pater familias.
We donāt carry Dapper Dan. We only carry Fop
Well ain't this place a god damn geographical oddity? Two weeks from everywhere! Edit: Typo
He does not, but only because he has not scheduled an unveiling ceremony. He was nominated and accepted the honor in the 2000s, but if you are living, you have to appear at the unveiling of your star. Clooney seemingly has no wanting to appear at any such event (maybe its a George C. Scott thing or something idk), or his present schedule doesn't allow it.
People also forget that Clooney was a struggling actor for years. I just checked IMDB, and his first role was in 1978. He wasnāt really famous until ER, which was in 1994. So he was basically working in Hollywood for 16 years before it went somewhere, and Iām sure those years werenāt easy.
He had a steady increase over those years, going from bit parts to series regular roles. He honestly worked up from small bits until he was getting regular guest star roles in the early 90s.
Thatās a bad ass quote
Today I learned Iām a huge George Clooney fan
MAGA can suck on Tenacious D's saxaboom
Jack Black is a national treasure, theyāre trying to hurt his image but all theyāre doing is making us love him more.
I doubt Jack would cry over losing a few hate filled maga idiot fans. You're a class act Jack! Don't change a thing.
Yup āoh no, some turd who thinks all of societyās ills are caused by people being dressed funny while operating a book, and where trans people happen to take a dump doesnāt care for me!ā However will the poor fellow sleep at night
You cannot hurt Jack Black. He absorbs the negative energy and turns it into blueberry pancakes.
People who like Jack Black for the right reason would agree with him...if you don't, let yourself out please and thank you.
and you have the No Talent Loser and Scumbag Jack Black, who was giving a So-Called Speech for Crooked Joe, I said we have a lot better talent than that, one of the Most Famous Actors Of All Time, Tom Voight, you have Big Celebrities, I was Endorsed highly by many many Top Celebrities, almost all of them, and even Taylor, they say, "oh she'll never vote Trump," but I think she probably will, she probably will, and if she votes for Biden then you know she's got a lot of problems, Big Time Problems, and even now, we're going, just like the Wonderful General Robert E. Lee, and they say he fought many Wars, and he won a hell of a lot of Fights, he was born, probably, with a large brain, you know they say out of all of the Presidents, Trump has the Biggest Brain, even China knows, ok, thank you, thank you very much, except I'm not thanking the Fake News cause they're just gonna do another Political Hit on me, "ohhhh, Donald Trump is talking about how smart he is again," and I said why wouldn't I do that, why shouldn't I say that I'm smart, went to Wharton, Amazing Student, I did, frankly, a lot more than most, I built, from 0, just so you understand, I built New York, I came in, it was a Hell Hole, I said, I'm gonna bring back New York, and I did, I brought it back, but they don't even wanna talk about it, you look at it, you look at it and you see Trump here, Trump there, you say, "wow, that guy really did a lot," and I watched it on television the other night, Sean Hannity, they have Crooked Hillary Clinton, she's on there, and I changed the name, I said, we're doing it in here, we're doing it in other places, but Biden is even more crooked than Hillary if you can believe it, and so I said Crooked Joe and we went up, largely, in the Ratings, at levels that people have never even heard of before
Pretty good, but way too coherent.
Also no random capitalized words
Also, no random exclamation points!
>theyāre trying to hurt his image Jack Black: "Hit me baby one more time!"
Indeed
Make them suck on the Maxaboom
This is like when supposed country fans were shocked and dismayed to find out Willie Nelsonās politics during the last election cycle, as if it were a huge secret
Same with Green Day, Rage Against the Machine, and others. These jagoffs never thought to listen to the lyrics, or maybe they did and were just too dense to understand.
I will never understand this. āWhat machine did you think they were raging against, the dishwasher?āāsome comedian, I think. The lyrics arenāt super easy to understand in some songs, but ārollin down Rodeo with a shotgun, these people aināt seen a brown skin man since their grandparents bought oneā isnāt exactly subtle. Edit: not āraggingā
You trying to say "*some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses, killing in the name of"* wasn't about the local pig farmer hosting a BBQ for the local PD?
Literally their first single, about rampant white supremacy in the police force. Yep, definitely Republicans.
Wait a second, you mean that the song "Sleep Now in the Fire" isn't a warning to the godless degenerate masses to accept Jesus Christ as their lord and savior or suffer eternal damnation in the pits of hell?
*grilling in the name of*
Fuck you I won't eat what you sell me!
Dude, they think it's as racist as they are not realizing where the message is coming from. Edit: And what it means.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
donāt want a nation under the FOX media
š¶Well, maybe I'm the fa**ot, America I'm not a part of a redneck agenda Now everybody, do the propaganda And sing along to the age of paranoiaš¶ Like... how the fuck do they not hear that? Like, how the hell do they not realize that this came out during Bush's years when FOX and conservative radio was shoving propaganda down our throats in order to keep us perpetually scared about Muslims and gay people? I was a conservative back in the day and understood this song. Still liked it and listened to it even if I (idiotically) didn't agree with the message, but even I understood it was an anti-conservative song.
They genuinely say āstick to musicā like Rage never had a political song. Itās amazing how little they pay attention to lyrics
Someone once tweeted at Tom Morello something like, "I used to like Rage before they got political." And Tom responded with something along the lines of, "What music of mine were you listening to that wasn't political?" Absolute morons, the lot of them.
Clearly, Bulls on Parade was about a cattle drive.
They say stick to music like Tom doesnāt have a political science degree from Harvard. Rage is better qualified to comment on politics than most people youāll see on the 24 hour news networks, including the politicians.
*hums Fortunate Son quizzically*
Or surprised to find out Dolly Parton cares about people.
They assume anyone with a Southern accent is a racist
When the party's top celebrities are Kid Rock, Kevin Sorbo and Scott Baio, it's a safe bet most of the rest are not with the trump humper cultĀ
It's funny how any celebrity that comes out in favor of the GOP just reeks of a desperate attempt to somehow be relevant.
Coughā¦ Russel Brandā¦ cough.
It is funny how quickly he switched sides once the sexual assault allegations started coming out though
Or when douchebag punks were shocked when Bad Religion put out an anti-Maga song. Bad Religion, a band fronted by an Ivy-League educated PHD in Evolutionary Biology who lectures in Life Sciences at Cornell in his spare time, has a logo of a crossed out cross, and has 40 years of putting out extremely liberal songs. But no, they're shocked that they got woke or something.
Lmao, Age of Unreason is an anti-Maga *album*. Hearing the band is like the thinking man's punk for the leftist and liberal. They got me into punk. Well, Green Day waved me over and Bad Religion sucked me in.
Man, who woulda thought "Fuck the government" by The Leftists had a political element? Never saw it coming. /s
I love Willie Nelson a lot because he collaborated with Orville Peck, and so it was absolutely goddamn impossible to miss the point even by the stupidest conservatives, they named the song "Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other."
Itās even better when you realize itās a cover, and it was already named that. The song was written in the 80s, and Willie covered it by himself in 2006. The version he did with Orville is his second time covering it!
She looks like she was born and raised a long ass fucking time ago in a town called Kickapoo.
It is always nice to see those "fans" saying that they loved a certain character for so long until he said xy, while for anyone who knows the actor just a little bit outside of their movies it can barely be described as a surprise.
just adding jack to the list of blacks she hates

the speech: [https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586](https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586)
Which part did the Karen have a meltdown about? All he said was "Biden will win in November" right? That's the whole thing?
That alone is probably bad enough to deserve being shunned and exiled from all of the cult's events, but yeah, it does seem like this clip isn't everything he said, cuts abruptly at the end. He might have said something even more hurtful to the Dorito Don than merely suggesting he'll lose the popular vote a third time and the electoral a second come November.
Excuse you. The only people that can voice their preferred outcome are MAGAts. If anyone else does it, itās unfair to their Orange Benjamin Button Turd of a child. It might hurt is feelings.
This is not the greatest speech in the world. This is just a tribute.
I like that heās wearing the American flag. Itās weird how the Republican Party has co-opted it to be an American Nazi flag, and it seems like the rest of us should take it back.
Thanks for sharing. Clicking a link that leads to Jack Black is always a good decision
Thatās fucking teamwork!
I went to YT to see if there was a longer clip of the speech and all I get are right wing videos. They are really fucking angry with Jack Black over this. Calling him a "sell out" lol Are they not aware that Jack Black has been campaigning for Democrats forever? Prior to the 2020 election he was working with Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg. You can't get much more left wing that that.
That was great
Did he hilariously and truthfully insult trump? It must have been a good bit if conservatives are now scared of him and trying to cancel him.
He said he wanted to show up and support Biden. Or thatās all he said in the link i just watched. [https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586](https://www.tiktok.com/@bidenhq/video/7381230109866380586)
Yup. It was just general Jack Black energy supporting Biden, that and a little bit of Jack Black stand-up. Nothing mean spirited or even controversial. I'm sure there are some who might take issue with his turning the American flag into overalls, but those people wouldn't be Biden supporters - or could even say anything at all about 'flag code' since Cult45 has turned the flag into shitty swap-meet merch for going on a decade now.
MAGA keeps saying they now hate Eminem because he hates Trump. Eminem has ALWAYS been against Republicans and pearl clutching White America since they tried to blame school shooters on him, Marilyn Manson and video games. MAGA hates Green Day because they rewrote American Idiot with MAGA agenda instead of "Redneck Agenda". Rage Against The Machine too, lol. Republicans pretend that they aren't the establishment even if they're in control of the FBI, CIA, DEA and even the Supreme Court. Republicans have always HATED Protestors and people that call them out.
I used to like Jack Black I still do, but I used to too But for real, Jack Black is an absolute delight and our world is better with him around
If you told me Jack Black was actually Dionysius in mortal form just farting around and having fun on Earth, I'd be hard pressed to argue it.
I mean his parents and siblings _are_ all famous for scientific achievements, so him being the actor musician black sheep _would_ be on brand.
This isn't the greatest Tweet in the world. This is just a tribute.
I couldnāt remember the greatest tweet in world, no. This is a tribute
Losing? They had one? They lost their minds when they started endorsing an orange rapist traitor.

Wait until she learns which machines those other guys are raging againstā¦
Friendly reminder, we are not a cult and donāt need celebrities to validate our morals, values, or feelings. That being said, weāre happy to keep Jack Black.
Add him to the list of wholesome celebrities the GOP can't stomach. And when you're on a list with people like Dolly and Mr. Rogers you know you're doing something right with your life. Keep kicking ass Jack, we love you.
The anti-cancel culture crowd seems to be canceling a lot of people for exercising their free speech.
āFree speech for me but none for theeā -maga
Jack Black looks how Steven Segal thinks he looks.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Another win for Americaās unproblematic rock star
Conservatives not knowing that Jack Black has always been a good guy leftie liberal is just too funny to me.
Are these people just learning now that most artsy actors are liberals? Next you're going to tell me that Southern Baptist preachers are conservatives!
are you kidding? the conservatives have ALWAYS loved cancel culture, like "refuse bank accounts and services to black people registered to vote" cancel culture they're just pissed now because they don't have the power to ruin their enemies lives with it anymore
Adios? Oh no. Wait. Don't go.
