the amount of people in the replies saying “what career” lmao
Gladly
Don't forget this meme exist because everyone on the set was hating him and they get super happy when he died.
Okay so I reblogged this somewhat uncritically at first I'll admit. I remembered that media is going to attempt to turn actors into people that we can turn against. Despite his... Previous behaviors I wanted to be 100% sure. So here is his comments from Instagram on what he said:
Also here's a link to the previous behaviors in question
Now you can see here he is just saying striking is something he does not like and he expects to be present on the picket line.
HOWEVER
He has already crossed the picket line. As many are aware SAG-AFTRA has called for all union members to STOP promotion and events. This includes social media promotion. For his show, Heels, new season he did this:
So not only has he promoted the show on social media, and done so in a way that shows that he clearly knows what he is doing. BUT he also attended a convention which if you look it up was 100% AFTER the union call to cut event attendance. AKA something DIRECTLY in opposition to his union's strike requirements. If you check their website you can see it is one of the immediate things that is seen as a call to arms for striking actors.
To attend this convention and sign autographs and do promotion for the show with his attendance is a CLEAR CUT violation of the union rules for the strike. Full-stop right there, he's a Scab 100%. No "he maybe had to do it to survive!!" Nick Cage has a crippling dinosaur bone addiction and somehow managed to stay the picket line soooo. Fuck Amell right there. Not to mention the people losing their homes and what not. He had a choice and he made it, scab right there. But I'll continue because it's kind of fun to rip him to shreds.
To promote his show on social media was to cross the picket line, to do so in this little "haha I'm not promoting it, it just happened to be there!" Bullshit way was a spit in the face of his union leadership and his fellow union members. ESPECIALLY combined with the fact that he promoted it at a convention with his attendance, and clearly in the timeframe of the strike.
You may be saying, "Maybe he's really dumb and thought this was okay!" In regards to his social media posts. Okay sure but at best he thought it was wrong because he purposefully went out of his way to misdirect what he was doing. But hey I'll give you that, maybe he's the most braindead guy ever.
Except for this:
He was fully aware. He was told. He was informed. He continued to make this decision. If he shows on a picket line I highly suspect he will not be welcomed as a studio exec would not be welcomed. I hope they fully rescind his union leadership. The replies to the tweet are him defending his actions, to which the other replies with the gif in which he becomes big cry baby Jane about.
This is also COMPLETELY ignoring the Jordan Peterson retweet where he is happily saying he must be offensive to "think" which is just.... Well a defense for the braindead thing I'll give you that. But the main message here is this:
