Jack is and will remain to be one of my idols. Like I said, his music and comedy meant a lot to me and others in my generation, and helped make us the people we are today. He was a voice of joy and rebellion, not some nazi. I know he is a person with a good heart.

I'd have to see something pretty damning to change that. A lot more than making uncool movies these days, or failing some purity test on his political opinions. I haven't seen whatever supposed zionist stuff he has expressed, but if it boils down to him saying he supports Israel, i would take that to mean he's just saying what he thinks he should and doesn't have an understanding of the reality of the Palestinian genocide, like most people in America.

If you want your idols to be perfect, then don't have any, because all people are flawed.

I wish he hadn't done that. But I can also see how he wouldn't want to put fans at risk by continuing that tour after Kyle put a MAGA target on their back.

But like I said, either way he's earned a pass in my book for the music and comedy that was a huge influence on me.

Jack Black earned enough respect from me for Tenacious D and everything else he has done, to withstand doing some family movies. If he wasn't as big influence on your life I can understand not seeing it that way though.

The CEO of UHC is both a public and a political figure

I feel like acknowledging that corporate interests DO have extreme political power is kind of the whole point.

How was it not an assassination?

Maybe he didn't want to be responsible for fans at his shows being injured by psycho Trump supporters
