I just wish Hollywood would keep their political opinions to themselves. Hanks, Damon, Baldwin, Penn and others.. I will not see their movies now to support their platforms. Can’t stand watching them now.

They're doing you a favor. By coming out and announcing their idiotic point-of-view, they prevent you from watching one of the propaganda flix unawares.

Problem is that Hollywood actors keep getting rewarded for their political activism with UN Ambassadorships. People like Angelina Jolie, George Clooney, Nicole Kidman, Nicholas Cage, Orlando Bloom.... and the list goes on and on....all are UN Goodwill Ambassadors for some cause -- AIDs, Humantiratian, to a country, etc.

In short actors are getting prestigious awards for their social & political activism, so there is nothing to discourage and everything to encourage them to keep up the politics.
