It’s what he deserves.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he transitioned to a political career. I can see him running for a state level position.

It’s because he’s too Jewish

She read once a decade ago, that's above average around here 😂

As much as I can't stand him, I understand how he might feel in this case - it's kind of inevitable when you compare yourself to people in the same field as you/who do the same thing as you.

As a barely related example, I've just found out some fandom drama of my own about people being being 'divas' because of their success as fanfiction writers, and others being bitter about it so while on one hand shit like this is funny to me, I also get it.

Fuck him for his Trump support tho, forever and always. Stupid bitches, the both of them.

He was the lead in a successful show that ran for five seasons, starred in several high-budget films, and if you check his Wikipedia, you’ll see he’s worked consistently. He’s far from being a failure in Hollywood. So, what’s there to be bitter about? Yet, he complained about being broke during COVID. Like many Trump supporters, he’s frustrated that life didn’t turn out “fair” for him. He had the privilege and opportunities but threw them away, and now he’s consumed by anger and resentment, pointing fingers at others instead of taking responsibility for his own choices.

Well, yeah, he's a shitty person and that's what they tend to do!

idk but it seems to me Hollywood is an insane microcosmic bubble of general late stage capitalism, greed, insecurity and a perversion of the American dream where if you're not on top all the time, you're considered a failure.

I believe the real issue isn’t Hollywood itself, but rather the underlying frustration of white male entitlement and the fear of failure. When their privilege doesn’t automatically guarantee success, they tend to shift the blame onto others instead of confronting their own shortcomings. It’s a common pattern-rather than recognizing that the world is changing and privilege alone isn’t enough, they lash out, blaming society, marginalized groups, or the system itself for their perceived failures.

It's because you are a talentless hack and horrible at being a person.
