Jared Leto, Tom Cruise. Here on Lemmy they might not be as loved as in the general population, but these pieces of shit posing as human beings are definitely loved more than they should.
I think the world turned a bit on Leto after his rat-mailing phase while playing the joker. But I’d say he probably still doesn’t engender as much antipathy as he should in the general populace.
Can’t argue with Tom Cruise, though. Admittedly he seems like a nice guy, but the whole funding America’s biggest and most dangerous cult definitely hampers that.
He wanted the weird image. He implied he was intending to start some sort of harem cult a few years back, which was really a hippie holiday for millionaire women in a very LA way. He absolutely played up his image as a self obsessed creep looking to be worshipped to sell this experience. I honestly feel everything kinda gross about how Jared Leto feels is marketing, although God knows why, as it must hurt his career.
This radical dualism is partly an American thing. Here on the other side of the pond, most people believe (IMO) that one can be simultaneously a “piece of shit posing as a human being” and a great actor.
I mostly agree with this, but apparently Leto is a giant worm was raping or assaulting people or something. While I do think “cancel culture” or whatever is dumb and believe separating art from the artists is an ok thing to do as a consumer, blacklisting someone from the industry for rape/SA is just about the only time I’m in full agreeance with “canceling.” Can’t be having that type of shit, idec if a Trump supporting actor gets work tbh but assault is a step too far. Liking things he was in prior is one thing, continuing to make workplaces unsafe by employing him is another.
As for consumers, I think they should be free to watch what they want and boycott what they want with impunity and no judgement (besides maybe taste lol), especially if they pirate. Still liking a thing you grew up loving even after something shady comes out does not mean you support the shady thing, especially if you’re not literally supporting them monetarily.
(I also fucking hate Thirty Suckents to Mars and he should be punished for making bad music.)
TC afaik isn’t dangerous in the same sense, he’s just a face of a cult. Miscavige is the really dangerous one there and he should probably be shot, but TC just makes cheesy movies and has sex with fish. As such I don’t think there’d be a problem employing him the same as it is for Leto, but also I’m personally not watching his garbage, whether you do or not should be left to you (and I won’t judge, other than maybe your taste in movies! Lol)

Rat-mailing?

He sent his co-stars dead animals and condoms as “gifts”
Absolutely my two choices as well
Jared Leto has always given me bad vibes and with what’s come out about him recently it seems like those feelings were justified

I’m not an American and I’m not watching any movies with them simply because they’re garbage.
Is that why Jimmy Savile was given a free pass to diddle kids until after he died?
