John Cusack has my vote and I hope he's on Hexbear. John I love your work and the fact you've always been anti-war & willing to speak out against shit like Obama using drones, George Floyd's murder, and of course, the Iraq War.

John Cusack’s strange journey from 1980s heartthrob to Left-wing troll

pingu-horny he's still a heartthrob TO ME but don't let the crackers at The Telegraph hear me say this

John Cusack standing outside your window holding a boombox that’s playing the Internationale

I'M LETTING HIM IN

[-] propter_hog@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

He was my next choice. It was a tight race between him and Greta.

JDPON Cusack

[-] Commiejones@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

John Cusack is based? or just anti-war lib?

[-] abc@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Pretty based. He IS a DSA member. Huffington Post scrubbed most of his older stuff but he was writing a politics column for them back in 2005 that was pretty decent for being a late 80s hollywood star and was arguably further left than Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama was at the time due to him being against the Iraq war entirely.

This Chicago Tribune article from 2005 has some pretty decent responses from him given the year & world events back then:

On the Democrats: “The Democrats have to figure out if they stand for anything. I think they do. I just think they’re lousy communicators and horrible tacticians for the most part.”

On being attacked from the right as a Hollywood liberal: “So maybe I’m smug, and maybe the Democrats are petty. Maybe you’re right. But you’re ordering people to their deaths. How are those two things comparable?”

On parallels between politics and showbiz: “It feels like Washington is becoming more like Hollywood in these strange incestuous relationships. Even James Carville going on talking online about the White House Iraq group or giving commentary on it, and then his wife is in the White House Iraq group.”

Bombing people who can't escape not defense - does not mean one supports Hamas means to be against murder as solution to political problem

https://x.com/johncusack/status/491843091410612224 (he was pissed about the 2014 Gaza war and has **many ** of these - this is what got him on the antisemite of the year award because he's been doing similar pro-palestine/gaza tweets to this day)

I didn’t stand up for Boeing military salute - fast enough for some maga fuck - see? don’t even have taste not to brand weapons company all over score board RT @QsSupervisor: What in the actual fuck does “tonight’s military salute” even mean ?

Tweet from 2019: https://x.com/johncusack/status/1131408977940680704

He called Obama 'worse than Bush' (John sweetie I'm not sure about this one really given Iraq & Afghanistan but yeah the drone warfare and bombing civilian weddings isn't really stacking the dice in Obamna's favor so....) in this 2015 Daily Beast interview: https://www.thedailybeast.com/john-cusack-talks-love-and-mercy-drug-trips-and-the-ways-obama-is-worse-than-bush/

Most recently though he was at the George Floyd protests marching & recording in Chicago and got pepper sprayed & beaten by the cops there.

...I'm gonna say it JOHN CUSACK YOU'RE BASED COME TO HEXBEAR I WILL FIGHT AND DIE FOR YOU

[-] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 39 points 3 weeks ago

I swear I see anti-Zionists called antisemites 10 times as often as actual antisemites

[-] TheLastHero@hexbear.net 25 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

if you are a representative of the Zionist entity, anti-zionism is the threat, actual antisemitism is just advertising

[-] Weedian@hexbear.net 28 points 3 weeks ago

Hasan is too obvious of an answer. Greta would be funniest

[-] propter_hog@hexbear.net 20 points 3 weeks ago

put me down for Greta, too

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 24 points 3 weeks ago

I'm voting Hasan. Greta would be way funnier, but she might have enough liberal brain removed to be actually sad and upset about this. Hasan would for sure treat it with the respect and reverence it deserves.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 12 points 3 weeks ago

I’m still fucking pissed that she became humanity’s public enemy number one solely for saying “pollution bad”.

[-] micnd90@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago

She only became public enemy number one when she said genocide bad

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

Should be Hasan so he can be the first white man to win the honor. But thanks to misandry it’ll probably be Greta

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 12 points 3 weeks ago

Everyone who has won the prize before has been people of color, so I think Greta is safe on account her being white.

[-] dannoffs@hexbear.net 18 points 3 weeks ago

Greta, it's her turn.

[-] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 17 points 3 weeks ago

I'm guessing Dan Blizerian actually did something to earn a spot on this list?

[-] FuckyWucky@hexbear.net 16 points 3 weeks ago

He thinks Israel is doing it because Talmud

[-] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 10 points 3 weeks ago

Is he an anti israel anti semitic? That would be a nice departure from the normal right wing pretending to not hate jews but also wanting them to be capitalist cannon fodder in the middle east.

[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 8 points 3 weeks ago

Why are zionists actually doing it?

[-] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

Yeahhhh he thinks Jews murdered Christians en masse during the Bolshevik Revolution

[-] Rod_Blagojevic@hexbear.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

As a judeo-bolshevik myself, I'm thinking a little more post-revolution repression might have been nice. I think we're in a vote for Bart is a vote for anarchy situation.

[-] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 3 weeks ago

I like how whichever Nazi runs this "antisemitic award" thing places legitimately batshit insane actually antisemitism next to "streamer who wants people to have improved material conditions and for Israel to stop doing genocide."

One day, once the Zionist entity has fallen, people will look back on these barbaric times and the shameless racism shown towards anyone willing to say "genocide is bad actually. No matter who does it."
