Morning, Fam…
So, yesterday,
I talked about Roseanne’s 180
on her racist tweet apology. Now, it
seems The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’s
in deep trouble since it came out the powers that be’ve fired
James Gunn, who’s directed the first two volumes of the popular franchise,
for some past tweets joking about rape and pedophilia.
OK, first,
NOT cool, dude, joking about those topics.
Victims of these are scarred for life, some don’t get passed those scars
permanently, and are no longer here. Yeah,
I know you say you were just trying to get a rise out of people back in the day,
but I also think, because you said those things, a part of you really believes
that…otherwise, why would you even say something?
The other
part’s more a devil’s advocate-type stance.
The tweets were reportedly old, so unless someone was gunning (no pun
intended…LOL) for him, how did said old tweets surface…unless they aren’t as old
as he’s saying. Therefore, there should
be an investigation with the powers that be questioning him about said tweets
to see if that’s his current views, then, go from there.
I’m not
saying he shouldn’t be put on notice, because joking about those topics was and
is a shit move, but if someone’s just trying to bring him down, that’s not cool
either.
Thoughts are
thoughts and we’re all entitled to them, but some things’re better left inside
our heads whether you’re in the public eye or not.
Be good to
each other.
