these men in particular would never applaud that decision, lol

[outpour]

yeah, you're right because this is everyone who stood and applauded when he won the Oscar he couldn't be there to receive because he'd be arrested entering the United States.

[vulcan_rhapsody]

oh, I didn't know that

[outpour]

yup, he got a standing ovation. fucking disgusting.

I wanna know who the people are who aren't standing and even having looks of disgust or shaking their head in disappointment. I wanna give them a round of applause.

Harvey's one of the ones who started that fucking Polanski petition in 2009. What a shock.

lol I was gonna say, "Hi Meryl!" I guess she didn't care as much about women being taken advantage of back in 2003.
