Tim Robbins in his lengthy interview with Russell Brand a few weeks ago confessed that he’d been one of those who was angry and shamed the vaxx refuseniks - but has since had an awakening - and has come to see that he was wrong - which is terrific.

BUT he also said that he has many colleagues who agree with him who are afraid to speak out - and that he doesn’t condemn them for - I guess - protecting their careers and money?

Well - sorry - I DO condemn any celebrity with notoriety and a voice for remaining silent during this terrible time!! To my mind, they are just the same as the good Germans who silently watched as their neighbors and friends were taken off to the camps.

No fucking difference!

I attribute it to a kind of “philosophy” a colleague shared with me years ago - and I think it’s very American:

IGMFU

Which means “I got mine, fuck you.”

A complete absence of compassion.

Period.

During the vaxx mania in 2021, I was coldly told by loved ones when I was excluded from all public events and family gatherings that “You’ve made your choice” - meaning a kind of “too bad, fuck you.” They thought it was A-OK and totally justified to deem me persona non grata because it was my own stupid fault.

Luke Skywalker not withstanding, Mark Hammil is a typical HollyWeird asshole. Period.
