I have a really interesting political point of view, and it’s not always something I say too loud at dinner tables here, but you can’t go from a $2,000-a-night suite at La Mirage to a penitentiary and really understand it and come out a liberal. You can’t. I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone else, but it was very, very, very educational for me and has informed my proclivities and politics every since.
This is something Robert Downey Jr. said in 2008 to the NYtimes. I know it’s very old news but I couldn’t resist reminding everyone that he sucks.
What the fuck is this idiot even talking about? Or as Gabe @ Videogum explains it, “Obviously, if you had experienced the things that I have as a wealthy celebrity forced to suffer the legal consequences of my untreated drug addiction, you too would realize that it’s impossible to have a progressive fiscal policy geared towards helping the nation’s poor rather than just benefiting the rich, and of course the 30-foot-wall along the Mexican border wouldn’t even be up for fucking discussion. Open your eyes, hippies! I’m Iron Man!”

Yeah, reading the Wikipedia article on him a while back really made me dislike him. Apparently he loves Mel Gibson, too. ;_;

Aww, fuck it RDJ. I wanted to like you, but at least now I know about your fuckery and can be aware before I support any of your future endeavors.

Totally cool, you don’t like him now because of his political views.

Yes?
