Not takes you agree with- just funny/odd/bizarre takes celebs come out with.
Couple come to mind:
-John Cleese being the average British celeb- a soft economic leftie on most issues except trans and cancel culture where he turns slobbering
-Chris Pratt rising to popularity with gentle dudebro comedy (which i stand by he’s great at) surprise! he’s basically a conservative- semi closeted until combo of Jesus freak and Insta post supporting LA mayor and homeless death camper Rick Caruso
- cardi B being Bernie supporter always makes me laff
-supposed Lefties like Frances Mcdormand, Woody Harrelson being anti-Vaxx. Definitely ‘new age left’ vibe but so bizarre these people who prob don’t have social media still get caught up in covid misinfo.
-Jim Cavesiel (Jesus) being incredibly moronic and impressionable, now Q (great Qanon anonymous ep on it)
-Not confirmed but Twitter mentioned Coen Bros being ‘Cheeto in the White House Libs’ which is so fascinating. Perhaps growing up during 60’s your brain warps around once living through the Dems almost being an unembarrassing party to support
Everyone here probably knows Danny Devito is an old school socialist, but here’s a speech he gave at the Teamsters union conference anyway.
this is more of a charming one, but the guitarist for Eve 6 is a communist, Jon Siebels. He’s even a full member of PSL. They’re the band who did the “heart in a blender” song.
I’ve always enjoyed that Wallace Shawn is a socialist. It makes it that much funnier that he plays the Grand Nagus on Deep Space 9.
jeremy irons questioning whether legalizing gay marriage will lead to fathers marrying their sons to avoid inheritance tax was pretty funny, especially because when he said it he seemed to be saying it not in a homophobic way but like he thought it would be a genuinely good scheme to avoid taxes
there’s that oldschool gay thing where the older partner adopt the younger partner as a way of getting some familial legal rights when marriage wasn’t available, maybe he heard of that and couldn’t remember the details
no, he meant biological fathers and sons lol. the interview tells him that would still be illegal as it is incest and he is surprised and says that he didn’t think that it counted as incest
