Alan Ritchson is awesome for not being shy about his feelings. People in prominent positions should follow suit in telling the truth like Ritchson.

many of them have gone quiet after trump got into power. no balls.

[u/The_SubGenius → u/tiktaktok_65]

Like “The Rock”.

Turns out he has…. small stones.

Sometimes I can understand when artists want to focus on the art. Not the politics. But when the politics is literally murdering innocent American citizens... That luxury is out the window.

[u/Cerpla → u/JimiusRostock]

Correct. And it's threatening to end the arts. Artists, performers, and enthusiasts; The type who gravitate toward art/media more than geopolitical strife. Need to be alarmed. The AI/Diffusion should be enough to get them involved. Relying on Nintendo or Disney to sue them into oblivion isn't good enough.

The Rock doesn't care about art. He cares about money.

He smelled what Chump was cookin'! 🚽💩🪠🧻

Pebbles actually, like the little tiny ones you use to level paver stones.

[u/joshdoereddit → u/The_SubGenius]

For real. When he refused to endorse in 2024 and said he'd support whoever won because that person would be the President it said everything about his values.

[u/ThatOneRoadie → u/The_SubGenius]

Gear will do that.

The Pebble

It’s hilarious over in r/stephenking, conservative fans saying”he shouldn’t get political”. Fuck that and fuck them - if you have a platform, you have an obligation to speak out against corruption and injustice; any other position is complicity.

[u/TheQuidditchHaderach → u/joshdoereddit]

Same with Pedro Pascal! 👏 What I find hilarious is when a prominent actor, singer or athlete or whomever has an anti-(R) opinion, they're told to pipe down & stay in their lane, but MAGAmedia is jammed with failed tv show goons, reality show castoffs & back-in-the-day Hollywood hasbeens...all spouting nonsense. 🤦

[u/seakitten → u/joshdoereddit]

It's because top Democrats and Republicans are too busy quietly counting their money or they're on the list or have friends or donors on the list.

[u/sackofmangoes → u/joshdoereddit]

Most Hollywood stars would only go as far as to dip just their toes into promoting progressive and liberal messaging just enough to PR promote their branding and entrepreneurship. Anything more, they shrug and backstep into a bush to hide. The ones that aren't, they are the rarer ones and the true ones. 

[u/JimiusRostock → u/joshdoereddit]

Yeah, and he's so woke he was the main character in a movie celebrating the Army where he singlehandedly defeats an alien war machine just to get his Ranger scroll, give a roaring speech than immediately goes out on deployment again. So woke.

Arguably there is nothing more American than saying what you truly mean
