So, now the 'Cancel Culture' will come after you if you don't donate to their pet causes.

This used to be called 'extortion'.

Chris Pratt is a Christian actor in Hollywood..........................

Yep. An Actor who just wants to stay out of the political fray and stick to his job. Acting. Props to Chris.

Nice career you’ve got there. It would be a shame if it were to catch on fire one night. All we’re asking is to wet our beaks...

Director James Gunn also tweeted in support of Pratt, saying that his personal views were not necessarily identical to those held by any church.

I assume "his personal views" means "Pratt's personal views."

That said, would it be bad if Pratt's (or Gunn's) personal view were identical to those held by any church? If so, why?

Wow. You’d think from the comments that Pratt was guilty of some horrible crime... turns out he’s a Christian and (GASP!) possibly a Republican.

Only good thing about this virus - it shut down Hollywood.

As far as I’m concerned, the entire film industry could drop into the Pacific and the world would be better off. We already have enough stupid super hero movies to last until the end of time. Just slap a new title on the beginning and put them out again and viewers would be too stupid to even know it’s something they’ve seen already.

They’re only defending him because he’s a fellow Hollywood actor. They don’t feel anything like that toward other Christians.

Reading those “defenses”, only Downey offered real support and full throated defense. Good for him.

Good for both Chris and Robert. It’s nice to see actors willing to stand up for their beliefs and for each other.

Just please don’t tell me that James Franco is a lefty... :(

So what I see here is a fraction of society that embraces and admires homosexuality and other abhorrent behavior and attacks conservative Christians for their beliefs....I think I read about this type of behavior in a book once. Now let me see, where did I read that.....OH YEAH now I remember. And I also remember what happened to those lost people.

Prediction. The “friends” will begin to fall away as they face punishment from the members of the Hollywood Un-TDS Activities Committee

My kid is in college and it is tough. Time was, one could just be silent and get by. Now, your professors expect you to be active in promoting their Communism. Silence won’t get you a pass.
Complain? To whom? The professor is also the Dean and the head of the complaints council.

I am shocked about Mark Ruffalo doing anything to defend a potentially conservative Christian.

All these people live in a bubble. None of this has an effect on my life. I live in the real world. I believe in real life super heroes. Trump comes to mind. And other brave Americans who fight the good fight. Especially black conservatives.

If he was a pedophile the left wouldn’t have any issues with him. But they think he’s a republican and THAT is not acceptable!

The same people telling everyone to stay home are mad at Chris Pratt for not attending a fundraiser. . . . . .

I think if I were Pratt, my response would be much more concise...

This is how Soviet leaders, North Korean leaders, Cuban leaders, Venezuelan leaders, etc all have huge crowds turning out chanting support for them.....if you do not turn out, you will be cancelled....permanently.

why the f##k not
@teenagedrearn
Replying to @JamesGunn
maybe because he goes to a church that is openly homophobic

Really?

Who would even pay any attention to someone with an account named "why the f##k not". Are people that afraid?

“Director James Gunn also tweeted in support of Pratt, saying that his personal views were not necessarily identical to those held by any church.”

Who is this pedophile to speak on behalf of Pratt’s or the church’s views?
