He’s not my hero. He is scummy. Assholes like you however want to tie every scumbag on the right to all people on the right. So it’s a way of pushing back against scum like you.
One thing is certain, @Zombie can no longer credibly claim not to be part of the alt-right, now that he’s willingly taken part in a pizzagate-style disinformation campaign.
Obviously, the opposite is true. You agree that the attacker is a liar and that the attacked is innocent, and yet you defend the attack because you think it's fair to attack leftists unfairly. And why do you think that? Because other leftists have attacked actual rapists, harrassers, and racists for rape, harrassment, and racism, and you still feel that somehow that was unfair, because none of that should actually count.
What? #1 Cernovich is a scum. I didn't say he was a liar. #2 Gunn is not innocent. He wrote those disgusting tweets. Let him deal with the fallout such as losing his job. You guys on the left created a culture of destroying people, whether the person deserved it or not, and now it's going to start coming after your side too. Oh well......
Your dumbrep on post 156 says otherwise. Wanna take that back? Or do you think you looking stupid teaches me a lesson?
Then you apparently ignored the posts you shrugged off, pretending you knew what was in them. In a world of your own, obviously. There we go again. Name one who didn't deserve it.
It didn’t bother me when it happened to Al Franken. It doesn’t bother me that it happened to Gunn. I’m just pointing out that this is the new standard courtesy of the left.
Hey, I've got someone for the pile for ya!! Victor Salva! Actual convicted pedophile, got off with a slap on the wrist sentence, and gets to finish the "Jeepers Creepers", trilogy. Yep, we get three "Jeepers Creepers", while we only get two "Guardians Of The Galaxy".
But didn’t this start with cleaning house of liberal institutions in Hollywood via the sexual assault/hasassment scandals? The left was using it against themselves from the very beginning. That it’s also brought down conservatives doesn’t mean the weapon wasn’t used against the left initially.
Why does anyone think it’s a good idea to post stuff like that on social media using your real name? Then again, we have Dayton. Good for him that he isn’t a public figure but even he had some trouble with folks here supposedly doing the same to him. It must be even worse for people who are well known. I know everyone does stupid stuff when we are young, but I think he should have deleted his old tweets as soon as he started working with Disney/Marvel and definitely should have done it before arguing online with people about politics. It sucks and it’s probably not fair but Disney is the family friendly company. You had to know they would fire him.
Another person defending evil by vaguely implying "the left" committed similar evil before. Even if they were able to name such a case, which apparently they aren't, it wouldn't excuse new evil.
Adding Jared Leto and Victor Salva to the list. Not James Gunn, though he did hang himself to get fired by the Mouse, even if it was a hit job that tied the Mouse's hands, nor Roseanne, for similar reasons.
I find it impossible to believe that Disney, which has security and investigative departments to rival the CIA, didn't already know about the existence of these tweets. You don't hand a guy, a relative unknown, the keys to your new summer tentpole franchise and hundreds of millions, without thoroughly vetting him. And of course the first thing you do in this day and age is scour someone's social media history. No, they knew his past, they were just hoping it wouldn't come to light. Were the jokes/statements offensive? I suppose, but no more so than what you'll hear from Dave Chapelle on his latest Netflix specials. In the final analysis, Gunn took an obscure comic property that nobody outside of the geekiest of geek circles knew about and spun it into two gigantic blockbusters that combined earned Disney upwards of 1.6 billion. Few directors could have taken this offbeat property and turned it into something special. You'd think Gunn would have earned just a little bit more loyalty from his employer. This whole dynamic that's sprung up over the past couple of years, where the go-to strategy for extracting revenge from your political/intellectual enemies is to dredge up something they wrote years prior on social media and create a shitstorm over it is really, really depressing. Tabloid hit jobs and trial by social media is par for the course these days. Facts, evidence, due process, all have become totally meaningless. The sports media did it this past week with baseball pitcher Josh Hader of the Brewers, dredging up social media posts from when he was 17 in a pathetic attempt to generate controversy and clicks/hits.
Everybody who wanted to know, knew. The thing was public for years, not least because Gunn very publicly decried his own previous behaviour on many occasions.
Dan Harmon is on the run. He's already got some strikes against him in regards to treatment of woman when he was on Community. Sexually harrassed one of the writers. He also said recently that one-third of the country is Nazi. http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/07...eaves-twitter-after-offensive-sketch-surfaces The sketch, titled 'Daryl,' was a spoof on Showtime's Dexter, and aired on Channel 101, the short-film festival that Harmon co-founded in 2009. Daryl featured Harmon as a "baby rapist with a heart of gold" (as opposed to Dexter's serial killer with a heart of gold). In one sequence, Harmon simulates sex with a baby doll. If you Google the video, I refuse to link to it, he enters the room drops his pants, literally is naked and fucks a baby doll. And there are baby sounds in the video. Goodbye Rick & Morty........
Oh no!!! He pretended to be the thing, therefore he's really the thing!!!! *Sigh* no, but really, Zombie is stupid.
They are. Did they vote Trump? Did they regret it, or double down? Everyone who doubles down is a Nazi. Or a Nazi dupe, but the larger arc of history doesn't give a fuck, so neither do I.
