I attended a Friends of Abe meeting recently, and I think this has to be discussed.
Why are people blacklisted in the entertainment industry if they are openly conservative? For an American institution that's existed for more than a century, I don't believe that's fair or just, do you?

No, but what can you do? Unless you break up their monopoly nothing will change.
Something changed in the 80s/90s. John Milius is a hardcore conservative and he was allowed to make many films. These days he's practically blacklisted.
Hollywood is liberal as you can get, of course they dislike Conservatives.
Conservatives are exclusive, ie: an "us vs them" mentality, which isn't profitable. The aim is to be as INclusive as possible, to get into as many pockets of as many different types of peoples as possible. Inclusivity and diversity is a requisite of globalisation which is where maximum profits lie.
Well ofcourse it does. Ultra liberals and Jews own Hollywood and almost all of television and they push their shit on a constant basis. It's only the insanely talented conservatives like Clint and Mel who even get a shot at a career
No they're not, jews are crazy conservative. Their crazy liberal policies and agenda pushing are just techniques to create civil unrest.
Conservative actors get plenty of work when they're younger, like most people. Once you get old you have to start playcating people to get roles

Clint is senile.
Stalone can barely speak english.
Allen has a Coke addiction
They aren't blacklisted but they don't get work because they are idiots.
That's capitalism baby, populace dictates market value. Fuck your socialist "Everybody gets a turn" Hollywood nonsense,
The three elderly men in your photo continue to get work in Hollywood despite your protestations that they are blacklisted.
There are many older liberals in Hollywood that haven't gotten a gig in years. Brett Butler has lived in a homeless shelter this decade.

They're only conservative in israel. Americans are a whole different animal.
If you INclude the Chinese, and not EXclude them, you get their money. Pretty basic. Include gays and blacks while you're at it to push that profit margin further
>value is contingent on political views not ability or content
Okay
It makes me wonder how many closeted conservatives or even trump supporters there are

>John Goodman did deserve Best supporting Actor Oscar fot this role
Not what I said in the least, If your going to be intentionally obtuse try and contextualize it with the statement a little more for beliveability sake.
I was clearly only saying that market spending by consumer dictates value. Profit is a significantly more powerful force than any political stance.
That just isn't true, chinks don't give a shit if there's a riceball in their hyperpleb blockbusters.
>Why are people blacklisted in the entertainment industry if they are openly conservative?
Of course sweetie, Chris Pratt, Denzel Washington and Vince Vaughn are really struggling to get work - your victimist attitude has certainly nothing to do with it
Except when racial and group antagonization is the most common theme in modern cinema.
Eastwood owns his own production company and directs, he can't be blacklisted because he doesn't really need anyone else to make his movies
>Clint Eastwood
>blacklisted
Yeah. No.
>Stallone can barely speak English.
He doesn't speak like that because hes retarded, he speaks like that because he has a severed muscle in his face.
Except when u make ghostbusters remakes and Spider-Man homosexuals cumming

>BAWWWW WHY AREN'T THEY RECOGNIZING MY ABILITY OR CONTENT? WHY ARE CONSUMERS ALLOWED TO PURCHASE WHAT THEY WANT FOR WHATEVER REASON THEY WANT? WHY AREN'T HOLLYWOOD PRODUCERS FORCED TO ASSOCIATE WITH CONSERVATIVES?
You clearly don't understand what capitalism is
>denzel washingtpn's wife is literally named Pauletta
MY SIDES!
The only Hollywood blacklist against people who were of or sympathized with a certain political ideology was against the Communists in the 40s and 50s. There tends to be less conservative entertainers because many conservatives tend to not see acting or artistry as legitimate careers, whereas liberals and leftists tend to be more supportive of it.
And?
Why aren't bakers allowed to choose who they associate with.
They can buy cakes just not have gay cakes made for them and that should be enough.
Capitalism
>gay cakes
what is a gay cake
>No I swear there's millions of us! They're just in hiding from the evil media assassins!
Nice false equivalence, in no place did I defend bakers being forced to make gay cakes.
Pls kys on the way back to
Kelsey Grammar is conservative and it hasn't hurt his career
They're more than able to not offer a cake with a rainbow flag but refusing to offer a service to specific a protected class is illegal if they offer it to everyone else.
Deal with it faggot
The only one of these three who has an disadvantage for being a conservative is Tim Allen. Eastwood is one of the Academies favorite director and you can be sure that almost every time Eastwood released a movie that he get nominated for something and maybe even win that thing.
Stallone get also more and interesting roles, he has a fucking contract with Marvel now and he's not even conservative, he supports fucking Trump (like Chris Pratt, the lead of Guardians of the Galaxy 1 and 2).
So no, being a conservative is in 9/10 cases not a disadvantage for your career, I'm sorry for Allen tho.
Chinks watch Transformers regardless of token diversity, your point doesn't really stand
Denzel Washington is a conservative? I saw an Interview with him right before the Fency premiere and he had nothing but good words for Obama.
Again refusing to offer equal service in the movie making industry to one political group is illegal
..... Thanks for making my point.

Actors don't fucking pay to act. Acting jobs aren't fucking products or services. They're being denied work. Allegedly. And even if they were political opinions aren't even a protected class so it's not even close to the same argument.

Where is political affiliation on that list? I can't find it
Obama is a fucking conservative lad, his healthcare plan was even dreamt up by the GOP
>trust me my cousin works at synagogue
Eastwood gets an Oscar nom every time he rolls out of bed and shits out a boring flat lifeless grey talk fest.
This thread is stupid.
Those guys are legacy actors that have been around for a while and weren't forthcoming about their political beliefs. There is literally no chance in hell that an outright conservative could find success in Hollywood in the current age. You'd be blacklisted and defamed before you could even say "wait, I'm not racist."
Political groups are a protected class in the same scope as sexual orientation Vick

Again reread the post I replied to it implies it's fine for producers to not associate with a political group ie denying them access to a service they provide as a business.
When have they ever openly discussed it and declared, "I am a conservative"? Sure, I believe they are but that is only because they have not declared their love for liberal party like every other actor. In other words it is implied but not stated
Not many. There is no reason for them to be since nowadays once you are in the biz you are instantly wrapped into a Hollywood bubble and there is no reason to ever leave it again. Your agent will tell you what to say and your servant will take care of anything.
You will never face what average Joe and Jane has to face everyday.
Notice that most conservatives are old actors from different age, or actors who really had to scrape by.
The ones who are regurgitating Hollywood talking points are the ones who had it rough, like Chris Pratt, Reeves or Pearlman.
The rest can just afford to virtue signal from their ivory towers, but look at what happens when reality and shit they help to push comes knocking on their door - like raging libtard Clooney, steadfast advocate for migrants and diversity, who moved back to LA, because the security situation in vibrant, multicultural Britain was no longer safe. Try to guess if he went back to his Italian villa once their moved a refugee colony in his neighborhood.
And there are many others, like Samantha Bee, or Rowling, or Jude Law.
