What opinions do you hold about celebrities that would get you cancelled or at least severely flamed?

For example - mine:

  • I find Chappell Roan abrasive, don't rate her talent and plain just don't like her
  • I applaud Pedro Pascal for his progressiveness but I find his relationship with his sister Lux to be a bit creepy
  • I don't think Zendaya is that pretty or talented and don't get why everyone adores her?
  • Andrew Scott's forehead is so distracting I don't enjoy watching him in films

I'm sorry I know I'm a terrible person, but in the spirit of solidarity please share and help me feel like less of a freak?

This will draw some fire.

Equating Louis CK(touched himself in front of women after inviting then to his hotel room and obtaining consent) with Harvey Weinstein(physically raped and sexually assaulted women for decades) is crazy.

CK publicly apologized and admitted he has irreparably harmed those women immediately after acusations were made, Weinstein never admitted his guilt and is still claiming he's not guilty of the repeated physical sexual violence against women he is convicted of.

CK was an inconsiderate creep who didn't touch women and Weinstein was a violent rapist for decades. This distinction is very unpopular.

Andrew Scott's forehead is very large and shiny, but i love Fleabag way too much for the gleam to distract me from his charm.

Zendaya is a good actress and lucky enough to be born one of the prettiest humans I've ever seen, but Hunter Schafer is who I've been following since Euphoria. Cuckoo is so weird and good.

I dont know anything about Lux, what about their relationship is creepy?

    Louis C.K. Accuser Fires Back at Comedy Club Founder: “I Didn’t Consent”

    This is your only warning. Rape and sexual assault apologia is not tolerated in this community.

    Julia Wolov, a comedian and actress who came forward with accusations against C.K. two years ago in a New York Times story, pointed out factual errors in a November Canadian Jewish News story by Mark Breslin in her own piece on CJN, published Tuesday. “If Mark Breslin had read the Times article, he would know that C.K. was accused by five women publicly, not four, and that what happened to us occurred in 2002, not 2005,” she writes. “Contrary to Breslin’s accounting, what C.K. did was not done with consent. We never agreed nor asked him to take all his clothes off and masturbate to completion in front of us.”

    Hey, bigot! Still stalking me?

    Non-physically assaulting women is still different than decades of physical assault and rape, but enjoy your tantrum.

    Funilly enough, I think my dislike for Zendaya might be due to Euphoria.

    There's been coverage of them being very touchy-feely in public. I'm all for siblings openly declaring their affection for one another but if I didn't know who they were I'd assume they were in a relationship.

    I’m all for “we listen and don’t judge” but I do gotta put my 2 pennies in about Pedro and Lux. They’re Chilean, and while western countries are more “ew” about affection, other cultures don’t see familial affection in the same lenses we do.
