I don't have reason to believe he was living his tweets and I thought the firing was reactionary but this whole campaigning for him has me side eyeing.

The same way the mods and peeps here didnt catch certain posters who in the past made pedophile jokes or etc and got away with it. Everyone seems to act or pretend they are so disgusted and appauled with it, but I wonder how would they feel if their favorite poster is basically James Gunn. :picard:

Do they defend him like the celebs and people or would they shun him?:ohhh:

Truthfully..... it shouldnt come down to it as that shyt.... PEDOPHILE JOKES and FALSE ACCUSATIONS should be ZERO TOLERANCE around here. But I guess some people just dont mind as much as they claim.

Pedophile syndicates are demonic brehs:scust:

This sums up my whole feeling on the matter. It’s very :mjpls: how a majority of nerd media members were supporting him.

I couldn't find any article about the pedo tweets before this incident.

This was from 6 years ago
'Guardians of the Galaxy' Director James Gunn Apologizes for Controversial Jokes: 'I'm Sorry and Regret Making Them at All'




If he joked about raping adult women, would there be any debate? :jbhmm:

#Metoo movement don't play that sh*t. :usure:


Abused children have no voice. Child actors in Hollywood have yet to get their justice, despite their pleas. A lot of these predators are still walking about in Hollywood, care-free. :scust:

The fake outrage surrounding this is :mjlol: None of you are actually offended. Especially this forum which has people in mass shooting threads talking about "i don't give a fukk about what happens to some cacs"

Unless he was actually raping children on the low or doing some sick shyt, what can you really say? If you really wanna sit down and talk about all the transsexuals, mentally disabled, minorities, rape survivors, etc etc who comedians crack jokes about on a nightly basis, then you'd have a point. Dave Chappelle has an entire bit on Netflix about being raped by Harvey Weinstein.

XXXTentacion was being brought up on charges of torturing a girl and said a lot of stupid, inappropriate shyt, and still had millions of people defending and supporting him up until his death

It's not a symptom of anything but people choosing who they want or don't want to crucify based on arbitrary and really murky, non-uniform standards on what's socially acceptable and how much they care about the person. Consider the irony of the situation in that the person who dug up those tweets was some alt-right cac who also made rapey jokes in the past. Not saying it changes the situation, but the irony of it is telling

Maybe you should read the article again. It makes no mention of his pedophile jokes, only the gay and sexist jokes

Yeah you're right, but I see it as Disney fukking up and either overlooking or neglecting something they'd have fired him for today had it not already been addressed

No surprise to see James Gunn, fellow white liberal dude, is the breakpoint for the white liberal dude contingent on the "left"* ideological purity bandwagon. They didn't give a fukk about sniper-rifling other cacs' jobs because of social media and pedo shyt until the offending posts got too close to home. Nah, keep that same energy. If y'all gonna police, police your side too. That's the only way any real progress will be made eradicating this filth from society.

Until then, I got me a fresh cup of White Tears™ with free refills from these people going:bryan:"B-but these are my heroes! How could Hollyweirdos defend this degeneracy?" :troll:

*American, white left aka Europe's center-right aka not left at all

The whole reason alt-right people went after him is because he is online playing verbage police on them. If you want to play by those rules you can die by them to.
And really don't feel sorry for James Gunn, he made more than a decent living off the franchise and I'm sure when this blows over he will get more work. It's really not a big deal or life changing for him. I'm sure someone else is more than capable taking over the franchise as well.
