• You may remember multi-hyphenate Mel Gibson as that asshole who assaulted his girlfriend while she was holding their infant daughter and then later sent her abuse ridden violent rants but did you remember that he is also a virulent anti-semite? Well Seth Rogen

more celebs need to call this disgusting pos out

IA but unfortunately I feel like things mostly lean the other way where I've heard more celebs defend him and want to work with him than the opposite.

Yeah, he has a lot of high-level friends still defending him. He was sitting at Matt Damon's table at the GG the year he was nom'ed. In 2016, I think? Jodie Foster still defends him. Etc, etc.

re: matt damon, to be fair actors don't really get to decide what table they sit at, the hfpa works out the seating arrangements. eg some movies with lots of nominations and huge casts get full tables, but other movies that only get a couple of nods will only get a couple of seats at a table, so other movies/casts in the same situation end up placed together.

rdj defends him because rdj thinks everybody need a second chance since he got one. problem is gibson isn't on the same level at all.

Supposedly Mel Gibson took him to rehab one of the last times (or the last time) he went. So RDJ probably thinks he owes him.
