Is he? Well fuck. Why?
Hes been quoted saying "today's cancle culture, woke culture really bothers me" I'm paraphrasing. He says he feels talking about politics is bad for him. I get not wanting to talk about politics, but, if youre not for trump you would come out and say it because no one would ever want it to be a question. And hes just a dick in general.
This sounds like a reasonable take to me. Not wanting to publicly talk about politics makes a person a fascist?
Saying you dont like woke culture is very indicative. Very understandable not to want to talk about politics, but, with orange Mussolini in charge you would want no confusion where you stand unless you support him.
I feel like professional entertainers (who aren't hateful bigots) can have a valid point about dislike 'woke culture', that's completely separate from "politics".
The culture wars are basically integral to entertainment these days. Media companies are using rage bait to promote their movies.
It's easy for us anons to throw salt when we can just disengage as our mental health requires.
I don't know actually if The Rock is a facsist, but barring real evidence I think you're watering down the term here.
