Amen to that. :)

Yes, it's annoying, No, it's not a good reason to fire him. Though it seems like he's more "suspended" than fired.

In his "rant" he basically said he was like them back then, because he was (his words) "white trash." It doesn't sound like he considered himself better than them. Can't argue with that. :)

All I'm trying to say is we can't judge people purely by the things they say. Their actions in life are also important.

It wouldn't call what he said bigoted exactly. Old School conservative, yes. Welfare is a broken system. We do need to admit that at some point. I don't agree about his ranting about entitlements, but again, that doesn't make him bigoted. Just conservative. And he's probably right that the...

...dialogue shuts down once again. Labeling people isn't productive.

I just think we need to understand that people may say critical things about groups, but that doesn't mean they'd treat people badly in daily life. That doesn't mean they're bad people all around. Dismissing people as mere bigots or punishing them for the crime of speaking is NOT going to...

No, I agree. They had the right and when you represent a conglomerate, you have to expect that this can happen. I'm just saying people are certainly within their right to run their mouth off, as long as they realize it could cost them.

Well it's more like people don't want it to disappear from TV.

It's true. Hollywood has the liberal reputation but in reality they don't really look out for their artists too much. I completely agree with you. I don't see understanding the Bible's historical context as a problem. Rather it's a privilege to learn about how these people lived, good and...

I always hated when teachers or parents so blatantly got something wrong and there was nothing you could do about it. Rest assured, you were correct and the teacher's "answer" was kinda laughably simplistic, lol.

The only problem in this particular situation was industry greed. ;)

You can make comments, just realize that there might be consequences. That's the problem with America nowadays. People want to protest and take a stand on something, but then we're all too spoiled to deal with the aftermath, lol. In any case, I am a little tired of people being fired by some...

I get that one act doesn't make up for everything, but that is how it starts. Plus I don't really connect with Toy Story's idea of comeuppance anyway. The villain gets strapped to a truck at the end? Um OK, at least he's not dead, lol. When I first read about the truck, I didn't realize it was...

That's a relief...oh my...excuse the pun, lol. :o

I totally understand the redemption thing has been done a million times. I get they wanted to do a switch up of sorts. That's not what bothers me so much. I just don't like the idea of making Lotso even worse just to justify the ending they'd originally written. There's nothing wrong with...

Yeah I can't go with that at all. What the audience felt was perfectly natural. Empathy even for the worst of us is essential to us being human. There was no need to try and quash that. I'm not sure I ever want to see Toy Story 3. Frankly, growing up I had my fair share of cartoons/live action...

I read about that Toy Story 3 ending a little. Let me get this straight, the creators saw that the audience was sympathizing with Lotso...so they made him even more evil? To show that he deserved what was coming to him? Um, no, lol. That's horrible. I would hope my children would find sympathy...

:).Yeah I should stop talking about the cartoons I used to watch as a kid; it narrows the field too much, lol.

I always seem to look younger. When I mentioned how old I was at my acting class recently someone went, "Wow..." Lol
