I've been gone a few days swamped at work and this is what I come back to?

47. Has anyone in this forum boycotted the anti-semitic, domestic abuser, vile language Mel Gibson?

Or the hateful-to-his-child Alec Baldwin?

It could just go on and on and on.

Gibson was, by far, more vile than Maher. Gibson's words and actions were more indicative of deep seated hatred and bigotry against Jews and women, followed by actions. His actions were multiple and were such in nature as to speak to his rotten core as a human being. He is, at his core, a Jew-hater and woman-hater. I boycotted Gibson years ago & still will not watch any movie he is associated with.

Baldwin's incident was only once and in the throes of a bad divorce. I gave him a pass on that one. I'm not sure if he apologized, but he seemed genuinely sorry in some things he said.

I recognized YEARS ago that Maher is sexist. People on this board will disagree with me, but I have seen enough and heard enough to know that he is. A lot of men are. But Maher is a comedian and political humorist. Ultimately, I don't care much about his views on women since they don't rise to the level of interfering with women's rights, and he's not a leader of a party, like Limpballs. Maher has not exhibited hatred towards all women, IMO, has not beat them up, or expressed anti-semitic views or views about women that show he wants them to have fewer rights (like Limpballs).
