Reply to comment by Curious_Bar348 in I wanted to be something really scary this year, so I went as Marjorie Taylor Greene. by us2bcool

I’m sorry, we’re somewhat drifting here. The celebrity posts are a symptom of “everyone’s angry at politicians doing shit that isn’t (or shouldn’t be) related to politics.” Make politicians stop calling certain groups of people less than human and you’ll probably have fewer celebrities that appeal to those groups of people feeling the need to tell those people that they aren’t less than human.

While that is true, I don’t go to concerts or watch TV to hear their political views, nor do I see a relevance to posting about them constantly. Most of the time it isn’t to bring awareness to the issues you mentioned, it’s meant to “make fun” of their extreme beliefs to try and win favor with their own party. This whole conversation is why I don’t usually discuss anything political, it never goes anywhere and no one changes their mind about their beliefs. However, I do appreciate the fact it was cordial and good points were made. Now I am off to go enjoy some reality TV, lol
