Kind of like guns. they aren't the problem. it's the criminals using them that are the real problem.

TBF, if we make all drugs legal, the illegal activity and violence that comes with such surrounding drugs sort of dries up. Can't really say the same for guns.
Let’s extend that same logic to nukes. Nukes aren’t the real problem, it’s the people using them that are the real problem right? So if that’s the case why regulate which countries shouldn’t get nukes, just let Iran and North Korea have it
"Hollywood glorifies violence, but blames the NRA and Conservatives"
I guess we have some special kinds of idiots here, no one where in the OP or subsequently did I state movies were to blame.
Gun violence can have consequences on Hollywood and they could think about adjusting their tone about violence if they are going to take up the tone that guns are bad.
Simple practice what you preach like this one woman actress did. How is that to hard to ask.

"Hollywood" isn't being hypocritical since the last time I checked, no one went out and murdered someone with a reel of Die Hard 4 or similar. WHich has been the counter the whole time, movies and video games are not to blame as to why something like the Parkland murders happened.
I never said you did, but that train of thought still lingers from back in the 90s where it actually gained momentum among stupid people. I was simply addressing it in case someone brought it up in the past 8 pages of discussion I have no intention of going through individually lol. It's a stand alone thought and not necessarily aimed at anything said by anyone so far.
The reason the vast majority don't want those countries getting nukes is because of the people in charge of those countries.
It's hilariuosly how hard you failed at crafting a gotcha scenario, in reality all you did was essentailly agree with my point.

He working real hard to be an edge lord. Its not working out to well for him, thus he ends up looking foolish like he did here. He also apparently lied about putting you on ignore after you triggered him.
Looks more like calling out Hollywood as the hypocrites they are.
You can't claim a title of progressive while profiting off the very things you criticise.. Ethics don't work that way.
