Is this the most outrageous Trump-related Tweet to come out of Hollywood so far?
The #resistance has no greater friend than Joss Whedon.
The director of The Avengers is one of Hollywood’s most vocal critics of the Trump administration. He did all he could to stop the real estate mogul from becoming president.
He directed the infamous “Save the Day” voter PSAs from 2016. Whedon leaned on his celebrity rolodex to caution voters against Trump. The star-studded ad featured Robert Downey, Jr., Don Cheadle, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo and other A-list actors.
Now, he uses Twitter to warn the masses about potential abuses of presidential power … and more. It hasn’t always gone smoothly.
A few weeks ago he admitted the fight against Team Trump had left him “broken.” Since then, he’s resumed his political messaging. Thursday's Tweet, though, could be his most aggressive statement yet.
He linked to a story about gay people reportedly being killed simply for their sexual preference.
Authorities in the southern Russian republic of Chechnya have reportedly kidnapped dozens of gay men in the past month and killed at least three as part of an roundup ordered against LGBT people there.
As horrific as that sounds, Whedon suggests it could soon be worse for gay people stateside.
For the record, Trump has been more open to the LGBT community than other GOP leaders. He reportedly appointed an openly gay man, Rick Grenell, as a NATO ambassador. He leans on adviser Peter Thiel, the openly gay co-founder of PayPal. And Trump told CBS late last year he was “fine” with same-sex marriage being legal in the U.S.
How did the Russos take it away from him?
Trump isn’t muslim.
Just you, Joss. He has no problem with the rest.
Ok people, who let this out? This was supposed to be a secret until next spring when the ovens were completed.
Let’s all work on our opsec.
I think Whedon just burned himself out.
We’ve really enjoyed the Avengers movies but too many of the stars and now this jerk are offending with their radicalism that I think we have to stop.
Insane nonsense.
I’ll praise him for his libertarian years and Buffy and Angel and Firefly and Serenity...and put his name of the "priority" execution list for everything else.
I used to like Whedon’s shows,through Serenity, but since he has turned crazy as an outhouse rat his shows are bound to turn as well.

Don’t worry, Joss. Obama is a dictator in exile right now. I’m sure he’ll be fine.

Wait until they find out about all the underground tunnels connecting Wal*Marts!
Ssshhhhhh!!!
Probably not, just Directors.
Bitch away fags. no one cares
“Authorities in the southern Russian republic of Chechnya have reportedly kidnapped dozens of gay men in the past month and killed at least three as part of an roundup ordered against LGBT people there.”
Chechnya is Muslim.
Joss is a girl’s name.
I have always had doubts that Amb. Stevens was “gay.”
Especially since that story originated from a group of Democrat “gays” in (wait for it) Chicago.
Faster than they kill themselves?
When I was a kid gays were called bachelors, lesbians were called spinsters.
They kept it quiet and no one cared.
Now they demand the gov to stay out of the bedroom so they can parade it in the streets and schools
Dip S**ts
Keep yerself to yer self
Kiss and tell dont work for anyone
