    I chose to believe he is being honest about why he cancelled the tour, and it wasn’t because “I agree with my buddy, and we’re going to stay out of the limelight for a short minute to stay safe”, but because “my buddy wants a fascist dead, and I can’t be seen to agree”.

    I also find it fucking hilarious that people seriously think anyone is going to target this guy (or that he doesn’t already have/ can’t afford security), when there are significantly bigger targets out ther.

      I’m not saying that it’s likely, just that it is more likely following this event. And yeah, this is absolutely showing that Jack Black is either spineless, or he’s a moderate that truly believes we can defeat fascism by simply getting out the vote. Neither reflects positively on him, but then, I wasn’t looking to Jack Black for political theory.

        If voting against fascism isn’t good enough, what do you suggest?

        Because brawling in the streets against guys who live in trailer parks hasn’t worked either.
