It's just because the other guy is fishing for some kind of "gotcha" comment tbh

It is, but in this case by all accounts Alexander essentially just looked like this

Eh, idk, these actors have generally struck me as pretty decent people. 5 years ago we already knew Will Smith was a Scientologist.

Actors are generally the most well known celebrities

Which is why I'm saying it isn't malicious on their part. Calling it malicious implies that they are ignorant out of spite. There are people like that, and many people who are malicious in taking advantage of them, but my 70 year old coworker who just doesn't understand LGBT people and hasn't talked to enough black people in their life isn't malicious, just purely ignorant and scared of change.

They aren't choosing to be stupid as part of some evil plot, they're just ignorant and don't want to change because they don't think they should have to.

The problem is, a lot of the people who support these people are just... Stupid

I have known many a coworker who talked about voting for trump and every time I engage them in conversation about it I realize all their genuine beliefs are against the GOPs policies entirely. They just are scared of things they don't understand and like them talking about how scary minorities are.

Yeah but people always bring up the talking point "but over in Europe only the criminals have guns now! How can they defend themselves?"

However I really have to wonder... Where do criminals get those guns? 🤔

You can mute the ads by pressing one of the buttons on the side of the screen

So you're going to just get all the info you need from name calling instead of actual facts? Because Democrats are far from being communists but a lot of Republicans sure are turning into fascists

I think I played more of Starfield, frankly
