And for what it’s worth, I’m not trying to complain about supposed “cancel culture” but merely pointing out the apparent hypocrisy of these situations.

Saying it’s hypocrisy is like saying because the police don’t arrest everyone for speeding, they’re hypocrites for only arresting some of them. There’s only so much attention to go around and way to many sleezebags. 

James Gunn was a guy coming off purposefully provocative Troma movies and Slither making gross jokes on Twitter about things he obviously did not believe or support for shock value (unless you are one of the people that believes his jokes indicate he is a pedophile or that he really likes dead babies). He also…

What evidence do you have that he’s changed and grown? Because there’s plenty of evidence to the contrary.

I can't tell if they're willfully ignoring those parts or just don't consider them a big deal 

It’s interesting how you didn’t mention the workplace harassment claims against him

What the heck are you talking about? This man hasn’t been cancelled. He still has a job and is making more money than either of us ( unless you’re also a network executive).

He’s not getting fired, so I’m not sure what your beef is.  Seems like he’s getting plenty of opportunity to “change and grow” without losing his job, much less getting canceled “from all employment opportunities.”

What “cancelled” person has “lost all employment opportunities” unless they’ve gone to prison?

“Why won’t someone think of the shitty rich white men?” They’re doing fine, thanks, and ride the “oh, no, I’m cancelled” train all the way to a new audience and new jobs.

James Gunn made gross jokes on twitter, he never (to our knowledge) sexually harassed or discriminated against coworkers. Huge HUGE difference.

No one’s cancelling this guy from all employment opportunities. Some people would just rather not see him being the executive producer for the biggest game show in the world.

“but is being sleazy in a podcast 7+ years ago really worthy of cancelling this guy from all employment opportunities”

K but it goes well beyond the skeevy podcast stuff, you see that, right?

I know your in the UK so you wouldn’t necessarily know this but Jimmy Kimmel is a nightly talk show host nowadays, probably the second most popular behind Stephen Colbert. He has had the hosting gig so long most people are unaware of the man show, so your characterization of his audience is completely incorrect. But I…

It’s not about “sharing views”, it’s about being someone who people can watch without being slightly appalled by, and given how skeevy Bialik is, including that she is CURRENTLY shilling snake oil of a pretty shitty kind, that’s not really viable.

I have no idea what’s involved in producing a game show or hiring someone to produce a game show, but I can’t imagine it’s more difficult than having to deal with the non-stop media storm caused by this dipshit’s shady history. Like, just fucking cut your losses and can the guy. Hire some other smarmy, generic white…

Indeed. He’ll probably make a half-million a year as EP and we’ve still got concern trolls pretending that all of this guy’s failings are in the past and that he's being punished unfairly...as if that’s not true of every shitty thing ever done by anyone.

As for Bialik, I don’t care if the Jeopardy agrees with all of my views or not, she’s there to host a game show.

Dear Sony Picture Television,

Thanks for being in this comment section and reading my comment.

I am offering my application for host of Jeopardy! I’ll do it for half the cost of Mayim Bialik.

Here are my qualifications.

- Not a sexual predator
- Vaccinated
- So-So at reading notes off of a card

I would love to have a public scandal erupt around me and only have to lose the less powerful of the two roles I had. Oh to be part of the exec suite where everyone capes up for one another until it’s potentially career suicide to do so.

You’d think the easiest thing to do is part ways with Mr. “I’ve considered all…
