(Anonymous) 2012-12-05 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)What amuses me is that people already telling you to get over yourself and whatnot, but had this been a secret about him supporting a Republican the comments would end up in nearly full on agreement.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-05 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)freedom of speech protects you from being thrown in jail for your political opinions
if you publicly endorse candidates/policies that hurt people, they get to despise you for it
OP had every right to make this secret, and we have every right to think they are an idiot/bigoted/trolling/choose your own adventure. Just as we would have had every right to agree with a hypothetical reverse secret

(Anonymous) 2012-12-05 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)I enjoy many a band, singer, actor who believe far more differently than I do. But when it comes to their work, I put our differing beliefs aside and enjoy.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-06 12:19 am (UTC)(link)one thing is freedom of speech, and another is freedom to hurt people. :/

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
So unless fandom has spontaneously turned into congress now, nothing has happened to freedom of speech just because certain actors get hated on because of their opinions.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-06 02:00 am (UTC)(link)...Then again, considering what Congress is like now... nah. Fandom would be too distractible.
...Well...

(Anonymous) 2012-12-10 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)I firmly believe in "do what you want but be willing to pay for it"/"free to choose but not free from the consequences of your choice." It just seems few people are willing to take responsibility for their words/actions.

The people who disagree with you have Freedom of Speech too. You have the right to state your opinion wherever, and whenever you want. You do not however get to be protected from ever having to hear opposing opinions, especially not when you go to place you know is frequented by a lot of the people who have those opinions.

Srsly tho, have you seen the modern republican party, you might not have noticed, but they're legitimately fucking crazy and indefensible.
