Let me just start this post by giving a direct shout-out to my dear sister. Daisy Sister – PLEASE SIT DOWN FOR THIS ONE.
You see, my sister has this sort of school girl crush on John Cusack. Sure, she’s in her forties, but she’s loved John since his days as a nerd in Sixteen Candles, his breakout role in Say Anything, and let’s just say that she’s followed him ever since. So yeah….sorry sis.
With that said, this article may destroy her just a little. After all, she’s a conservative gal like me. And, John Cusack? Um, yeeeeah. He’d like FOX News and all GOP peeps to die in some sort of satanic ritual, it seems. Because he’s sane and stuff.
Here’s one of John’s completely unhinged tweets:
“I AM FOR A SATANIC DEATH CULT CENTER AT FOX NEWS HQ AND OUTSIDE THE OFFICES ORDICK ARMEYAND NEWT GINGRICH-and all the GOP WELFARE FREAKS,” Cusack tweeted.
I mean, you can’t get more direct than that, folks. You know, other than just beating the sh*t out of some conservatives with your bare hands, that is.
The article went on to say this:
Cusack has long been outspoken about politics. He supported Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election and has contributed to The Huffington Post, but this is the first known time he has stooped to the level of making threats.
And while the U.S. Constitution protects Cusack’s right to speak his mind, some critics say he should be more careful about what he says, since he has more than 200,000 Twitter followers.
“His provocative tweets could easily incite a rabid fan to commit violent acts against Fox News Headquarters and others he names,” said Dr. Carole Lieberman, a Beverly Hills-based psychiatrist and author of “Coping With Terrorism: Dreams Interrupted.”
Basically, what we have here is a case of hate speech. By a (self-believing) high-profile celebrity type person. Well, let me rephrase that. It’s hate speech in a NORMAL world when hateful, violent speech is treated equally. However, we don’t live in a normal world anymore. Instead, we live in a world where celebridiots spew illogical crap from their pieholes atop their big ol’ glass houses on a rainbow cloud filled with Skittles and unicorns. And if you yell hateful, despicable, violent things at conservatives (and dare I say, Christians?), then you’re some sort of intellectual hero these days (I just vomited a little in my mouth). Moreover, according to the article, celebrities have some sort of impact on the little people. Sheeple People actually LISTEN to John Cusack and give a rat’s butt what he says. Which is completely pathetic and makes me fear for humanity, but I digress.
I have to try to see it from both sides, though, right? I mean, if my career was completely over, I had really bad hair, I all of a sudden looked like a really bloated version of my former self that may or may not have smoked a pack of unfiltered Marlboros for the past 15 years, and I hadn’t made a decent movie in, well, forever (2012, anyone?), I guess I’d be sort of pissy, too. It’s a lot like Michael Moore drowning his hypocritical hate-filled psychoses in gooey baked goods. It all starts with wishing satanic death cults upon people, and then it gets REALLY ugly and turns to Twinkies, you guys.
Well, at least Mr. Cusack has THIS to forward to. Good luck with that:
