Everything Kimmel did that was bad was for a TV show (so bits written by others and he was acting them out). As far as I know there isn't anything bad on Kimmel from his personal life like the Gunn tweets.
I even looked for and inserted a lengthy, older post of mine to make my position clear. If you cant even be bothered to read that and actually take part in the discussion, instead just coming up with bullshit to attack others, then leave nd stop inserting yourself into the discussion.
I have some bad news for you guys. Theracist, rape-apologist, Pizzagate instigators of the campaign to get Gunn fired, Mike Cernovich and his Alt-Right followers are already very busy on Twitter, right now, to apply EXACTLY this tactic to Patton Oswalt, Sarah Silverman and others. This is their schtick. And you are falling for it.

I already signed it when I saw it in the other thread, even if nothing comes of it, letting Gunn know he has support is good enough.
Honestly they should just replace him with a woman or person of color just to complete this alt-right monkey paw wish.
These aren't false claims. He made those post and they were disgusting.
Now look at my post up there. If you want to actually do something stop buying marvel's shit
As of right now, your avatar is a literal advertisement for one of marvel's toys and characters.
If you guy's are truly angered by this, hit Disney where it hurts.
Skip the Marvel movies, star wars movies etc.
This petition will do nothing.
But you'll sleep easier at night knowing you haven't given money to the corporation who bent to the will of the alt-right.
who am I kidding. You'll all be there for the next guardians movie after the first trailer drops.
If you had asked me before this all blew up I'd have told you that we all know about Gunn too. It wasn't exactly a secret.
It was his whole thing. Look at the movies he made.So you were fully aware of these tweets that, to most of us, seemingly just got "unearthed?" All of the articles people are linking to from a few years ago certainly did not mention these particular, much nastier, tweets and posts.
No, I'm really not falling for anything and this whole narrative that emerged since yesterday over this is irritating.
Stop acting like the alt-right goons are pulling one over on people just because they exposed something. If there's nothing to expose, these tactics do not work.
ZattMurdockI do not believe you're willing to stand up for anything you supposedly believe in if it means missing out on your dumb kiddy movies.

People like him for the same reasons that got him targeted.I mean... when you boil it down, I think that's the only reason people are pushing to get Gunn rehired. If he didn't direct Marvel movies, I bet a lot of folks willing to forgive and forget wouldn't be posting about this at all.
I was an adult back in his Troma and PG Porn days, yeah if you knew his name back then you knew what he liked to spout. He never hid that part of his past and evolved quite a bit since then.

This is what Taika's up to, he ain't got no time for a Marvel movie.
You very simply do not understand that everyonehas something, somewhere. Everyone. You. Me. And comedians who often make their money with telling offensive jokes (Gunn was a Troma writer for heaven's sake) more than anyone else. If this is the standard you want, then you are just as guilty as Gunn. Patton Is. Silverman is. Basically every single Comedian in the world is Stephen Merchant, Matt Stone, Bob Saget, doesn't really matter. They are all done for, they all have to be fired and shunned. If these people WANT to find something on someone, they WILL find something on someone. And if you once made offensive shit for a small circle of fans who liked you for making offensive shit? Then there is absolutely no saving yourself.
Working on Troma movies is not the same as tweeting that kind of shit from your personal twitter account and presenting them as views of your own.
This convinced me.I already signed it when I saw it in the other thread, even if nothing comes of it, letting Gunn know he has support is good enough.

Signed. Fuck the Alt-right American Nazis. And fuck anyone dumb enough to still be taking their bait. It's shameful.
How is it still unfathomable to believe that people can't honestly change for the better?
Did I miss something? I thought he just got fired for all the dumb rape and pedo jokes.

And even if they do believe that people can change then it still doesn't matter because 'fuck you, you weren't perfect ten years ago'.Yeah its really scary how many are still falling for the alt-right and also dont believe in people changing.
They're ancient tweets. I suppose honestly I won't be TOO heart broken if he's kept off, but I'd like to show that we're willing to forgive if an honest, sustained effort is made to move beyond that past.He was, but because hes not alt-right, everyone is banding behind him.
Its sad i should say this, im anti alt-right, but this site seems to have double standards
'Dumb kiddy movies.'ZattMurdock in two weeks, if Gunn isn't back, will you boycott all Marvel products?
I'm 100% questioning your conviction btw. i think you're making a big stank because it's easy to talk on a forum. I do not believe you're willing to stand up for anything you supposedly believe in if it means missing out on your dumb kiddy movies.
Or rather "fuck you, I want to be able to tell rape jokes too"And even if they do believe that people can change then it still doesn't matter because 'fuck you, you weren't perfect ten years ago'.
Strange how Disney has known about his tweets for years then.
I'm confused too. I thought people said he was let go for a good reason due to tweets. Did I miss something that people want him back?Can someone please catch me up to speed on this?
I thought he was rightfully let go?
Nice fantasy world you're living in there, bud.Or rather "fuck you, I want to be able to tell rape jokes too"
