    Hollywood halfwits doing what they do best: sticking their upturned elitist prog noses into issues that they have no understanding of. These ****wits whine about injustice while the merch for their crappy movies is made by literal slave laborers, they whine about income inequality yet wont so much as show up to a table read for anything less than $50 million a picture, and they whine about global warming yet expel more carbon in a year than 100,000 of us regular folk will in a decade as they hop around from one snobfest to another in their private jets, heat and cool their multiple mega-mansions regardless of them being occupied, and power the monstrous operations of on-site shooting their industry requires.

    More pseudo-intelectual leftist elitist parasites living high on the hog yet expecting us to go broke buying the scrapes. **** them. Don't pay for streaming services, don't pay for movies tv or music, it can all be had freely just learn how. Take from them as they take from you.

    You can ignore the celebs and their protests, but you can't ignore the environmental impacts (which shutdown construction several times after environmental assessments by the government in 2020) or the fact that they are running the line under unceded Wetʼsuwetʼen land.

    Yes, how dare celebrities have a political mind. What they say would carry far more weight if they were an anonymous poster on an internet forum site. Then I could believe them.

    So, you go on a rant, talking in a mean way about these people, saying they have no right to their opinion, while using a public forum for your opinion....
    Couldn't you just tell the story, and then state your opinion without attacking them?

    Sure I could, but it wouldn't be nearly as much fun.

    Hollywood have those who are out of touch and in a bubble...and thus what they advocate for is often out of touch with regular Americans. But the other part of the situation is that advocacy for these liberal causes helps your career....and being silent on liberal causes can hurt careers . Chris Pratt learned this when he chose not to attend a BLM event when his other Co Stars did. It created a lot of negative publicity but worse...it might prevent future roles from coming his way.

    I’ll give a crap what they think about the environment once they stop using private jets, yachts and living in mansions that use more electricity than 20 families.
