    Does Danny know um… like, he’s brown? Does he know that? There is no such thing as “one of the good ones”, pal. They don’t think of you as human and you’ll figure that out when you are no longer useful.

    Danny Trejo’s involvement with this is… Unexpected.

    Also, it’s funny that they’d lie and obfuscate what the movie is about, because they know people won’t want to work for them. It’s like they know what they’re doing is despicable, and that’s why they’re trying to hide it in the first place.

        I thought there was more to the story, but he still needs to say something himself. If it’s a lawsuit he’s worried about, he’ll lose more “being professional”. He’s losing friends, fans and his legacy.

      My cousins are half-Thai, their mom is an immigrant from Thailand that my uncle married while serving in the Navy. My uncle was a trumper and virulently racist and anti-immigrant and taught his sons to be the same. For bonus points, thanks to the genetic dice my cousins happen to look generally central american and got abused more for that growing up in Florida than for being half Asian. How you could have that kind of background and still be a white supremacist is beyond me, but they’ve pulled it off. It helps a lot that they are just straight up stupid.

        What an arbitrary distinction given that legal immigrants are in just as much danger from ICE right now, and ICE is completely lawless — first amendment, fourth amendment, violating habeas corpus (a legal principle older than the Magna Carta), masking their identities, not to mention executing people. If the Supreme Court weren’t illegitimate, everyone involved with ICE would be in prison.

      most actors are surprisingly conservative, and only until recently they dont express thier political leanings for fear of blacklisitng from hollywood.

      frankie muniz is another, gary sinese, the late shannon dorhety., sorbo was given. Trump pratically gave them a megaphone that it was ok to be racist, bigot.

      frankie is somewhat surprising, although not really. the signs were there, hes into nascar primarly watched by republicans, and he made several statements how he dint like his costar on MIM, thier political leanings bothered him, but he felt like his politics were correct. he became more radicalized as he was looking online for republican/conservative propaganda to consume.

      sinese was a no brainer, hes obsessed with authotarian figure roles in movies/shows. and his current obsession is with veterans, only because one time after his debut in forrest gump, he thought he was one of the boys when he visited a va hospital one time.

        Okay, look, you named four people.

            Okay, you seem to have forgotten the conversation that just happened. Let’s go over it again. You said:

            most actors are surprisingly conservative

            and I responded:

            Neither you nor I nor anyone else here have anywhere near enough information for your claim there.

            And you said

            you act as if there are next to no conservatives in hollywood

            You DO understand that YOU were the ONLY one who made a claim, and that me saying that neither of us have enough information to make a statement about what you just said was baseless and then you doubling down by claiming that I said there are no conservatives in Hollywood just made you look ridiculous, right?

            You DO understand that, right?

A Latino actor makes a pro-ICE film thinking, I dunno, that spinning their murder of a woman who made the mistake of seeing too much, and then later faces deportation, and tells people he didn’t think they’d come for him after he tried to change public opinion about them.

              Actually I learned something new today. Thanks to entitled wine moms like Neera Tanden, who won’t shut the fuck up about Hasan Piker and how he’s “a predator” and need to “get out of our party”, I learned about the Democratic Leadership Council and Tanden’s own Center for American Progress exist to keep right-wing plants in charge of the Democratic Party to prevent it from moving further left, even though a large majorly of its constituents want a left-progressive party to vote for.

              The fucking rich people swooped in and pushed the left-moving party right. They stole everything from us including our political party.

            Obama gave ICE “cazr” Tom Homan a service award after Homan created the policy to separate children from the parents during immigration issues. Seems like a Trump policy, but nope, it was Dems. Never let the republicans claim they are crueler to immigrants than Dem leaders are. Biden and Obama made Trump look like a dirty hippie by comparison.
