He may not be the hero we deserve…
And all this time, I thought it was JLo making him that unhappy. Maybe he just has resting sad face.
This is definitely a thing, and I am so tired of people asking me what’s wrong.
I have resting horny face.
I’d rest on your horny face
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Teasing me, I see.
I mean… maybe? Gender/orientation?
Male, bi
Ben, you should smile more. You look prettier when you smile.
god forbid a man look a little bit pensive while going about his day….
probably trying to remember which ones of his 12, $1 million dollar cars are full of gas, back at his mansion, or if he should just take the helicopter….
poor thing.
edit: probably just annoyed by the paparazzi
Is…is he okay? Like genuinely?
I think he’s been going through some kind of divorce.
Who cares. He’s an over rated douchebag.
Right. As opposed to you, who is clearly a stellar example of empathy and humanity.
So I am supposed to care about a sex predator apologist?
Oh that dang empathy.
Yeah it’s much easier taking the internet’s word for something and just letting it define your entire personality than actually interacting with the real world, isn’t it?
Uh, in interviews he said he had no idea what was really going on. Then it came out that he did know what was going on and was even on Weinstein’s “red flag” list, for fear he would talk to reporters.
That is not internet rumor, that is easily confirmable public knowledge.
You clearly refuse to do any actual research and just want to believe what you want to believe.
*Edit: Your celebrity suck up is embarrassing.
I think you’re the one who needs to do some research, cause that’s not even close to reality. He said he knew Weinstein was sleezy, then 1 person said they went crying to Affleck after something happened with Weinstein, which resulted in people like YOU claiming this means Affleck knew he was raping people. Then that same person (Rose McGowan) clarified in an interview that she never meant to imply she told Affleck she was raped or anything like that, she said “It’s just more to illustrate the point of this continual thing of everybody knowing and everybody being part of it, unwittingly or proactively.” which Affleck flat out agreed with, the point being that hundreds if not thousands of people knew Weinstein was sketchy and weren’t collectively saying anything (until they were).
And to illustrate the point of this meme and why people think you’re an asshole this also bears mentioning: “Affleck has both anxiety and depression, and has taken antidepressants since age 26. He is a recovering alcoholic and follows a 12-step program. He said he used alcohol to alleviate a constant feeling of “discomfort” and remarked that it “took me a long time to fundamentally, deeply, without a hint of doubt, admit to myself that I am an alcoholic.” There is a history of addiction and mental illness in Affleck’s family.”
Lol, that is a LOT of mental gymnastics there.
Dude knew and he lied about knowing.
End of story.
Anxiety and depression doesn’t excuse shitty behavior, but whatever you need to feel better about gargling his nuts.
😂
He always looks like he knows he’s a piece of shit and feels bad about it.
he was great in Mallrats!
doesn’t make him not an absolute bastard
Y’all are being way too harsh. I’m sure he has a really good reason for why he enabled and protected Harvey Weinstein’s rapery. Something so convincing that we’d all say, “you were absolutely right to help blow up the lives of fellow artists. You’re really not a piece of shit!”
Eta: Apparently, my sarcasm was too subtle. The fact that people aren’t catching onto that is incredibly depressing because that means this was a believably shitty take. I really thought the last sentence was a dead giveaway…
Humanity and satire are dead, killed by genuine ghouls who are totally cool supporting monsters.
What did he do?
Allegedly, he was aware of Harvey Weinstein’s abuse, at least according to Rose McGowan. And since a lot of people are reactionary as fuck, since she accused him of being aware, then they act and behave as if he was undoubtedly aware and complicit in it.
The things is, EVERYONE was aware. But he was so powerful, and literally controlled everyone’s future. What was he supposed to do?
I wasn’t /s
But seriously, it is far easier being on the outside, pointing and casting blame, but for us old enough to remember all the people who were blackballed, run out of the business, and even murdered for exposing sexual abuse, it is hard to tell.
And on top of that, there are cases where a third party has exposed the abuse, to which both the victim and perpetrator deny the accusations, and it just ends up terribly for the whistleblower.
Yet, back to the point, we’re on
redditlemmy, where nuance goes to die.
I resent rich people in general but I fucking hate this feckless buffoon especially. Professionally, he had a hand in ruining an iteration of Batman. Personally, he doesn’t understand the difference between race and religion when it comes to people who practice Islam and that’s both reductive and patronizing. Fuck Ben Affleck.
You know those signs that say “X Number of Days Since the Last Accident”, and then you go in and change the number accordingly? If you have one that says “X Number of Days Since I was a Childish Asshole for No Reason” you should go ahead and change it to “0”.
Oh boy another person to hate! :D FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU aaaaaand blocked. That was easy. Unlike Ben Affleck, I’ll never have to hear about YOU ever again.
If you “hate” a random actor, then that’s kind of a you problem, and you should probably consider therapy, or at the very least, spend less time online.
He’s never done anything to harm you, he’s just lived his life. He may not be a perfect person but no one is.
I have known a good number of actors in my life. Some were TV show stuff and one I know for sure was in movies.
hating an actor is actually a big compliment. as big as love. not knowing who they are or knowing who they are and not caring is the biggest slight you can have for them.
Idk man. I share the same sentiment as the person you responded to. It’s not necessarily about what the actors want.
It’s about cultivating and maintaining the energy required to “hate” someone you’ll never meet and who will most likely never know your name…
Like… What is even the point? How would that be useful in a person’s day to day life. Just my 2 cents
