Pascal is loved and will not tolerate people talking shit about his trans sister.
Rowling at this point subsists on a half assed crumbling potter legacy she's using to fund transphobia. She went after tennant and since that backfired bigtime her calvary of fuckos are now trying Pascal. It will end just as badly and they will never learn
You can't go after Tennant 'cause he'll just hop in the TARDIS and undo every point you tried to make
Re: Your Username,
"Is this a crossover episode‽‽‽"
I appreciate the interrobang, please accept this upvote readily
You've had tour fun. Back to Magrathea now.
She wishes she tried to fuck with the oncoming storm.
She went after Tennant's kid instead.
Dude is chill and she is not. That is enough for me.
Federal money should be given to the poor.
I don’t hate the guy I just think he’s a boring actor.
And that's completely fine, something like that is just a matter of taste anyway. But trying to smear his reputation and spread false shit about him just because someone doesn't like him? That's not cool at all - and even worse if it's just because he's not a hateful piece of shit!
Also fuck JK Rowling, that terf bastard deserves nothing but a kick to the shin.
I don't find him boring (yet); I just think he needs to be more selective in accepting roles, considering how distinctive-looking he is.
Yup.
He's not bad but he's doing Nick Cage level of shit. He is put in roles he's clearly unfit for. So many characters which HAVE to be charesmatic... But he simply isn't.
He needs to start picking his roles wiser.
He and Nic are both incredible in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, imo.
Some people also don’t like it when someone is “overexposed” and in everything. They liked it when he was on the rise, in Game of Thrones and then he broke out with Mandalorian. People were happy because he played the role keeping the helmet on 99% of the season…especially flying in the face of the Halo series a while later.
But because he was now “popular” and appearing in more films and shows, this is bad now.
For some anyway. Not me. I love him still.
I personally don't get it. He's successful. It wasn't handed to him like some nepo baby. He worked hard and did great jobs to achieve where he's at.
I honestly don't get it. You can have someone like Taylor Swift who releases an album every couple weeks and if you speak ill of her then you've essentially become Satan. So it's ok for one person to be constantly in the publics face but it's not ok for another person?
Crabs in a bucket.
its because he supports his trans sibling, the current flavor of hate is transphobia of right wingers.
yeah he's a great fella as far as we know, his sister is trans and he's a very vocal critic of JKR and other terfs
The fact that people take JK Rowling seriously saddens me.
no they defend her, because shes the terf-queen, transphobes stick together.
All my homies vote for Pedro.
He also spoke up about palestine so that could have something to do with it
He's a relative of the Allende family. He spent his childhood as a refugee after the US installed Pinochet and his family had to flee Chile. Idk why his anti imperialism would shock anyone.
US "installed"? Surely not, only bad countries do such things. The US of A is the only beacon of light and freedom and democracy and justice and Good Values^(TM)^ in this world.
Who the fuck cares. He seems like a good dude and we all know she’s a complete piece of shit. Let’s not give her or her shitbag followers oxygen.
Your post has me realizing how much I don't give a shit about.
I genuinely struggle to come up with a topic for a news article more mind numbingly uninteresting than celebrity drama.
Why are you in the comments section, then?
I just wanted to chime in to posture with my superiority
Hi, welcome to Lemmy. You're in good company here.
Yep
can someone fill me in please, I missed the while situation save a couple memes.
Pedro Pascal's sister is a trans woman. He has been publicly very vocal on the subject of trans rights and inclusion. Consequently, a lot of transphobes, chuds, and miscellaneous fascists have been targeting him for a while and trying to smear his reputation any way they can. I don't really pay much attention to celebrity stuff so I don't know to what extent JK Rowling is personally involved in that, but given that she has been a very outspoken anti-trans bigot for some time, I would not be surprised to learn she was egging her followers on to that end.
Heaven forbid someone even suggests JK isn't an advertiser freindly content creator over her hate speech. Expect the full Karen free speech rant.
Pascal supports his family member, and these troglodytes make it their mission to prevent him from making a living.
I have a rule of thumb in life. If it reminds me of Nazi rhetoric, I stay far away. It is rarely applicable but crucial when it is. I forget sometimes that there are people that not only dont think the same as me, they actually think the opposite.
Just looked his sister up and on the photos she looks happy. I'm happy for her.
I'd be happy if Pedro was my brother. I'd never stop smiling
Uh no. He’s just in everything now. It’s overexposure. You can admit to that and also despise JK Rowling.
You can admit to that and also despise JK Rowling.
And do you?
Yes. I think Pascal has been in too much stuff lately. And yes I think JK is a dark hearted nut job. I will never understand her vitriol towards trans people. These are not mutually exclusive ideas.
Idk I only know him for him listing russian literature in his top6 books lol
And? Russian lit gave us an entire genre of games. Plus a bunch of philosophy and probably other stuff but c'mon bro stalker.
Cause it's never stalker (and honesty, who reads stalker?), it's boring tolstoyevsky stuff, which he listed at top. I just find it funny that I know the guy because of his shit taste in books, I imagine he's ok otherwise.
and honesty, who reads stalker?
Lemme clarify. Roadside Picnic, the book, inspired S.T.A.L.K.E.R the game and its sequel. Some of those devs went on to make Metro 2033. These games in turn inspired more games like Escape from Tarkov, Stalcraft (bleh), Into the Radius (peak), Convrgence, and more recently Gray Zone Warfare. The popularity of Tarkov basically solidified extraction shooters as a genre.
Fun fact, in GZW you can find copies of Roadside Picnic on tables and shelves in various locations.
Onto pedro, I looked up the list and there's 2 russian authors on there, so not really enough to dismiss it as a list of "tolstoyevsky stuff."
Let's give them the benefit of the doubt. The comment states that they don't really know Pedro Pascal and can be taken as just funny, absurd and quite neutral.
I don't know how to interpret their comment as anything other than funny, absurd, and neutral.
