Tenacious D and Jack Black learned the hard way that you don’t encourage the assassination of a political candidate
Tenacious D and Jack Black are known for their special brand of entertaining. They certainly aren’t for everyone, but back in the 2000’s they were comedy that many Gen X’ers found funny.
They aren’t funny anymore. And their following has spoken.
Last weekend, when the assassination attempt took place, Tenacious D was touring in Australia. They made a horribly off color comment about the disappointment of the shooter missing Trump, and they thought this was funny. They said that they hoped the next shooting attempt “didn’t miss”.
The rest of the world, and the Australian Senate, did not find this to be funny.
The Australian Government has spoken:
The fallout for Tenacious D and Jack Black? Their venues cancelled their tour. The risk of having them on stage is too high, and they have been shown the door. In the ultimate mea culpa, Jack Black and Kyle Gass have both back-pedaled and issued the following statements:
Calling for the assassination of ANYONE IS WRONG. Even JOKING about it is WRONG.
Do better. Most people support with their wallets. Tenacious D and Jack Black have made their political leanings no secret, Jack has openly campaigned for Joe Biden. May they reflect on the horrible decision this was, and may ALL entertainers remember that wishing death on a politician is not ok, and stop with the nonsense.
I have scrolled through Twitter the last few days and witnessed several people posting on social media that they are disappointed the shooter missed. I don’t understand how someone can harbor that kind of hatred in their heart. May they find a path of less anger, less hatred, less vitriol. May they learn that every life is precious, step away from the keyboard and self reflect.
They want us dead. The Left is a Death Cult. The Left doesn't build anything. They only destroy. (Unless you count giant mounds of skulls) I know this SubStack concentrates on Big Pharma and the shadowy figures they serve, but the rank and file members of the Left want us dead too. Heck, they don't discriminate, they want themselves and their fellow Leftists dead also. For those of us with a more positive outlook on life, it is hard to believe that there can be so many people with such malevolent thoughts. If you doubt me, just peruse the history of Left leaning countries in the 20th Century. USSR, Germany, China, Vietnam, Laos, Romania, Cambodia / Kampuchea, Rwanda, any of the Latin American Meat Packing Glitterati (Yes, I stole that from Pink Floyd), etc. They all killed off roughly one third of their populations after they came into power. When Leftists like Tenacious D tell us who they really are, LISTEN! They want us dead. The life you may end up fighting for may be your own.
When your party worships death, there is no hope, only entropy.
