This country's filled with ignorant jackasses.


"Yeah, I'll tell you how to make sense of it: This country's filled with ignorant jackasses," Shannon said. "The big red dildo running through the middle of our country needs to be annexed to be its own country of moronic a--holes. You can call it the United States of Moronic F---ing A--holes."


Hey Shannon - I plan on sharing your quote with everyone I know so they know what a delightful, tolerant liberal you are.
I'm sure your KENTUCKY parents are so proud of your disdain and hatred for 'Dildo' states.

And we're DEPLORABLES, dammit. Please use the proper jargon.
If you want "Moronic AHole Deplorables, please".

Ya beat me to the punch, petronomicon! I plan to make sure every movie-goer I know reads is words.
In the meantime, enjoy this little diatribe a friend sent me. It was originally aimed at those threatening to leave when Trump became President, but the gist can apply to all performers;
Dear Hollywood celebrities, You exist for my entertainment. Some of you are great eye candy. Some of you can deliver a line with such conviction that you bring tears to my eyes. Some of you can scare the crap out of me. Others make me laugh. But you all have one thing in common, you only have a place in my world to entertain me. That’s it. You make your living pretending to be someone else. Playing dress up like a 6 year old. You live in a make believe world in front of a camera. And often when you are away from one too. Your entire existence depends on my patronage. I’ll crank the organ grinder; you dance. I don’t really care where you stand on issues. Honestly, your stance matters far less to me than that of my neighbor. You see, you aren’t real. I turn off my TV or shut down my computer and you cease to exist in my world. Once I am done with you, I can put you back in your little box until I want you to entertain me again. I don’t care that you don't like Mr.Trump. But I bet you looked cute saying it. Get back into your bubble. I’ll let you know when I’m in the mood for something blue and shiny. And I'm also supposed to care that you will leave this great country if Trump becomes president? Ha. Please don't forget to close the door behind you. We'd like to reserve your seat for someone who loves this country and really wants to be here. Make me laugh, or cry. Scare me. But realize that the only words of yours that matter are scripted. I might agree with some of you from time to time, but it doesn’t matter. In my world, you exist solely for my entertainment. So, shut your pie hole and dance.

In another interview he called for a civil war. As if he'd even participate.

Excellent remark.
The ONLY reason DC cares for celebrities is for their money.
And people like Sean Penn and Michael Moore who so praised Venezuela are now seen for the brainless twats they are. It is very sad that it takes an example of extreme socialism to educate these Marxists. It's the people in Venezuela who are suffering while Michael Moore and Sean Penn live in mansions.

So true . . . this article summarizes the hypocrisy behind the celebrity outrage towards any and all Trump supporters pretty well, I think:

I'm not criticizing you.
But just so you know, so you're not attacked and eaten if you post that where those Oh so tolerant liberals hang out, it's Hear, Hear.
As in, I guess, hear what I'm saying, or I hear what you are.
Happy Trails.

I don't care what your political views are, and I agree that Michael Shannon is an arse for making obnoxious comments that he should have kept to himself, but nobody "EXISTS" for another person's "entertainment." That in itself an obnoxious comment. Boycott his movies, call him out as a jerk, etc. -- that is all perfectly within our rights.

But trying to claim that human beings, actors or entertainers or whatever, "exist" for your amusement is beyond creepy. Obviously, if you are past the toddler stage of development, other human beings don't exist FOR YOU. Don't go to see his movies. Boycott his television shows. Enough said. Don't prove his point that people on the other side of the political fence can't even tolerate the existence of those who don't voice the same opinions.
