He just keeps going up in my estimation.
Reminder that Pedro Pascal is related to Salvador Allande, democraticly elected communist whom the US overthrew and replaced with a fascist dictatorship.
The coup involved flying a plane into the Capitol on 9/11, 1971
Edit: 1973, and a plane flying missiles into the capitol building.
I assume you mean 1973.
By flying a plane into the capitol you mean using military planes to fire rockets at the La Moneda Palace.
LOL. I guess history doesn’t have to be accurate.
Might as well just change the headline to say: “Pedro Pascal is on the right side of history” because like most others here on the federated internet he knows what’s up and for him it probably started with his sister coming out.
All it takes is a little wake up call.
And now I’m thinking of the movie The Matrix again…
And if you’re looking to support Pedro Pascal, may I interest you in this little (scifi-western) independent film he made with Sophie Thatcher?
For anyone out of the loop:
Oh, Prospect is great!
At the current rate things are deteriorating, I reckon Pedro Pascal has about 3 months left of being a US citizen :(

LOL if he cared about Disney ethics he wouldn’t have been making movies for them in the first place.
Oh. My. God.
“[Actor/Actress] speaks out against Disney / in support of Kimmel”
Lemmy:
- Well, what about [other actors/actresses]? Imagine if it was them saying this. Why are they so quiet?
- It would be more meaningful if they actually had a show on Disney right now. Since they don’t, it’s just performative theater.
- [Actor active with Disney speaks out] If he cared about Disney ethics, he wouldn’t be making movies for them anyway.
Can we not just appreciate the high-profile support here? Is nothing ever good enough for you people? What does it freaking take to satisfy you??
They must simultaneously both work on major current projects AND abstain from interacting with Disney, ever, to sustain the moral high ground. 🫨🫡
Clearly 😆. But these people would still find something to complain about. Ugh.
My blocklist has been growing lately!

Liar.

So now we’re gatekeeping art? Are you for real?

All they have to do is shut the fuck up. No one should care about their opinions. The moral high ground was lost when they started working for one of the most ethically corrupt companies on the planet.

Relevant use of Janeway
My home instance has some awesome custom emojis. :)
If the Star Trek instance wasn’t going to support the Tankies on Lemmy.ml then I’d have jumped there.
I just blocked the instance. I’m not judging based on that since the instances that do block
mlare (still) the minority. Tankies notwithstanding, there are too many communities people would FOMO about if an instance were to defed fromml.That said, I would happily support the admins’ decision to do so if they ever decide to, but I’m not gonna insist they do since I can block it myself

Not wrong, but that’s 3 separate groups all with the same “nothing is ever good enough” / “perfect is the enemy of good” / “purity testing” attitude.
It gets old fast, but it usually manifests in smaller doses over a longer period of time. With all the support coming in for Kimmel the last few days, and these people and their constant nitpickig and negging on everything, I’ve reached my limit of that kind of attitude far faster than I can recover.
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean. Disney is a notoriously shitty company.
There have been multiple different articles posted like this one of various actors throwing in support for Kimmel / admonishing Disney. A good chunk of the replies to those posts are in the exact vein (or closely paraphrased) in my comment above and yours to which I replied. The common theme is nitpicking and whining and nothing ever being good enough.
Multiple people are making similar comments because it’s NOT good enough.
My wife bought a fun shirt not that long ago.
Thought I’d share it.

You replied to the wrong person BTW.
Whoops. Well, I shouldn’t have commented anyway, I regretted it not long after.
I don’t get it.

yup, and F4 was not a good movie with him in it.
the only way to hurt disney is people cancelling thier disney+, espn, hulu plus subscription. it will be hard for marvel and SW fans to cancel it, since thier so addicted to the franchises. there is a reason why disney is shoveling so much MARVEL garbage to the streams, its keeping ti afloat.
“They are” doesn’t have an “i”.
To conjoin those two words, you delete the “a” from “are”, replace it with an apostrophe, and push them up together, getting: “they’re”
They are

Well it’s not the only way, Disney was a company much before streaming services. The streaming part is low hanging fruit though.
I’m a bit tired of seeing him in so much so suddenly, but if it’s going to be anyone I’m glad it’s someone as moral as Pascal.
Is this guy ever anything but awesome?
I don’t want to see him in all the things, but I’m damn not complaining about how much he’s in.
what the fluff is up with the picture of kimmel they chose in the thumbnail??
He’s out of a job so he needs to look slobby and disheveled!! News articles have always gotta choose a picture that fits the way they want to portray the person’s response to the situation, even if it’s actually from years ago. It’s one of my favorite things to see because it’s just so funny.
Yeah he´s boldly making them billions
