The fuck are you talking about? As far as I understand it, he didn’t throw Gass in a cage to keep him from every stating a joke again… he just chose not to participate in something he didn’t agree with. That kind of choice thing you claim to be for.
Are you some sort of free speech absolutist who only wants people to agree with you?
Imo, JB capitulated to the far right by so staunchly objecting to KG’s comment/joke… it wasn’t necessary for him to make such a big deal about it, legitimizing the outrage which, imo, wasn’t justified.
Have whatever opinion you want, idgaf.

Was there even any outrage? The only news I read was about Jack Black canceling the concerts, nothing about Kyle Gass’ original comment.
It was a Streisand effect for sure. There was a small backlash/outrage, then JB shined a light on it by canceling the tour.

So fucking what? He is a public figure. They get death threats all the time.
If you honestly cannot tell what’s different about the current political atmosphere in the US, then I truly don’t know what to say.
The difference is the missing backbone of too many people.
Sure thing, bud.
So you cant really disagree with arguments then? Cool.
