But he might feel funny using that moment for BLM because many victims of church abuse are in dire need of support. How do you tell sexual assault victims that were robbed of their innocence and their faith by a priest that black actors getting snubbed during awards season is more important? I mean, both are entirely

Lets be honest about this. Will Smith thought he deserved an Oscar nomination for Concussion, and was pissed that he did not get it. Lack of diversity in Hollywood is a huge problem that needs to be addressed, however I can't blame the academy one bit for not giving will the nomination Concussion. His Nigerian accent

Mark Ruffalo is most likely contractually obligated to be at the Oscars. It was probably written into his contract for the film that he show up at any major awards ceremony where the film or his work the film is nominee. His appearance is promoting the film, along with all the interviews (like the one in the

Asked if he supports the boycott, he said: “I do. I’ve been really struggling with it myself because I do a lot with ‘Black Lives Matter’ and I’m really struggling because I would in essence probably really seriously think about joining them.

Oh, he absolutely would. Make no mistake that the real issue is that he made an Oscar-bait film and didn’t get nominated. Period. Neither of them has yet to utter Black Lives Matter, and Will actually said just a couple of months ago that racism is rare. So which is it: Is it a systemic, pervasive problem, or is it

This is my problem if wills movie was nominated he would go. Jada didi.t see snything wrong woth the oscars being .white last year but because her husband didnt get nominated she all of a sudden cares and wants to take a stand.

“Except I’m in a movie that’s representing a whole other group of disenfranchised people who have no voice in the world and this movie means so much to them.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t Will and Jada also have production companies? Maybe they should put some money into this issue instead of just boycotting the Oscars. I mean, wasn’t Clooney just crucified around here for just talking and not doing?

I wonder if Will would go if his movie Concussion had been nominated for best director (Peter Landesman is white).

Did you read why he said is still going? Seemed a good reason to me.

I do think that pornography and violence against women can intersect but to suggest that porn causes violent behaviour is akin to blaming death rock for school shootings.

His answer: “The girls in porn seem to like it.”

I think there’s nothing wrong with objectifying women as long as the women consents to being objectified. The same goes for objectifying men.

Some women like rape fantasy stuff, too (especially when it’s clearly fantasy and uses freely consenting actors).

Pretty sure men have been beating women far longer than the existence of porn.

Ohh like consensual sex with people who seem to honestly enjoy it?

Why do people conflate porn with domestic violence? Yes there is violent and questionable porn but that won’t stop someone like Chris Brown from bashing in Rihanna face or this Mack woman being nearly beaten to death by her loser boyfriend with cauliflower ears.

Porn and domestic violence are totally different things. Abusers don't need porn to violate another human being or animal.

Sure. But some believe that all pornography is inherently objectifying, others disagree. I was curious to see which position Espresso took on the matter.

Would that be all pornography (that features women) in your opinion, or just some of it?
