I suspect someone will have a quiet word with him and he’ll walk this back. one of the tenets of leftism is to never apologize and always double down
Red pilled, huh? Has he seen the light and broken free from the hive mind?
Kind of reminds me of a very old comedy routine, “Slowly I Turn”.
I doubt Robbins will ever completely turn into an American First type guy, but, like Robert Kennedy Jr, at least he is starting to realize that America First is not synonymous
with American NAZI. So maybe there is hope.
Well maybe on both counts.
Only took 3 years for him to speak out. Better than not at all I guess.
Tim Robbins The Zombie
This guy has been so wrong so many times I don’t even care when he’s right. I have totally switched off Hollywood.
Nope, not buying it. You made a choice Timmy and that choice was to berate and intimidate those that didn’t agree with you, you didn’t try to talk or learn, you tried to get people to bend to a will that they disagreed with and for that and forever you are a very large loser and not welcome anyplace in my life.
I have repented over sin in my life. I hope this is genuine.
Quit posting your blog material in the news forum.
Sorry, no take-backsies. You should still hang by the neck.
The repugnant and dangerous Left demonize everyone who disagrees with any of the Left's narratives.
Good for him. What he saw was science and math. Math is not easily faked by the factors they were talking about.
They were frantic over covid on shoe strings for 6 months. Even a total left brain can look around and say.. hmmm if it was this deadly, why is there a single person alive in places where large populations use public transportation.
There are people I work with in a hospital that want everyone who doesn’t want this vax to die. Soon. And definitely denied healthcare.
They are all in despite the math.
I wonder if he newly-found analytical skills will apply to the rest of his leftist philosophy?
He must have fallen and hit his head.
Actor Tim Robbins Decries COVID-19 Sanctimony, Demonization of Vaccine Skeptics

Renowned actor Tim Robbins told comedian Russell Brand during a podcast interview aired over the weekend that his views about COVID-19 restrictions completely changed when Robbins visited parts of the world where people publicly asserted their right to be free from masking, and that lockdown enforcers’ coercion, sanctimony, and demonization of those with different views have fed an atmosphere of tribalism and repression that is dangerous for civil society.
In conversation with Brand on the Dec. 18 episode of the comedian’s podcast, Robbins also voiced his dismay at official policies based on limited scientific studies that discouraged patterns of behavior that might have led to herd immunity, and thus arguably slowed the world’s emergence from the pandemic.
“We went into lockdown with healthy people, with children, and that didn’t seem to be wise to me,” Robbins told Brand.
“As someone who is concerned about the result those doctrines, that policy had on us as human beings, it’s not good.”
The decision of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control to adjust its protocol regarding virus outbreaks spurred further reflections on Robbins’s part. In the past, the longstanding policy had been to take care of the elderly and vulnerable and limit their exposure as much as possible, while allowing others to carry on with their normal activities in order to develop herd immunity.
But COVID-19 gave U.S. officials carte blanche to implement measures of social coercion and control that limited how everybody, including the healthiest and most-able bodies members of society as well as the young, was allowed to live.
“We turned into tribal, angry, vengeful people, and I don’t think that’s something that is sustainable for the earth, that we start demonizing people that don’t agree with our particular health policies and turn them into monsters, turn them into pariahs, and say that they don’t deserve a hospital bed,” Robbins said.
The hardening of the attitudes of lockdown proponents went so far that, when faced with any disagreement, they began to show an indifference and even contempt for the lives of those with different viewpoints.
“I think about people that have made bad mistakes in their lives, where they take too many drugs and they overdose. That’s totally their choice, that’s totally their responsibility. Yet we take care of them, yet we bring them to the hospital, yet we save their lives, because we’re compassionate, because we want to make sure that people live. And this turned, it turned into ‘You should [expletive] die because you have not complied.’ That’s incredibly dangerous,” Robbins said.
“The fact there were these changes of definitions … my alarm bells went off. I wondered, what is going on? What is beyond the very real idea of taking care of people and making sure that we don’t have a terrible death rate?”’

I had a business contact in Uk say this to me:
“ I’ve just reviewed your previous responses to our Newsletter and quite a few of your replies were in a very impolite tone.” So I told this jerk, “We have free speech and you don`t. We whipped your British butts once for free speech and press. Would you like acre to try for 2?”

Hopefully he has “awakened” from the leftist/authoritarian stupor he has been in for Decades and remains “awake”, not “awoke” when it comes to reality.
Give it a “try” Tim. That would be a nice Xmas present for sanity and America.
