This is film school, a fairly large one. It's been shared into facebook film networks like AFI. His career is essentially over.

 

[Orayn]

I like how he tries to preface the bigotry with weak excuses.

 

[Salazar]

His career is essentially over.

He can probably pick up work for the GOP.

 

[CJUNDERGROUND]

I'm not in the industry, but even I know that if you openly bash the Gays and Jews that you're essentially fucked.

You would hope that's a requirement for all occupations.

can I edit the title with a v. film industry?

 

[UrbanRats]

I kinda feel bad for the guy.
Because he's a moron, but his moronic nature, probably comes from a bigot family/culture/community.
This doesn't mean he's not responsible for the crap he says, but it's sad to see him autodestroying his future for a moronic upbringing.
Then again, this is probably the fastest way he's gonna learn to not be a moron, so..

 

[Rocket Punch]

Personally, I find his "film production company" just as offensive.

Maelstrom Productions

[jaxword]

There are several posters on GAF who agree with him, almost word for word.

 

[Enco]

If a bigot was on fire, I wouldn't piss on them to put them out

Charming.

Pretty much as bad as the first guy.

i said pretty much this in the conversation. i mean we are taught about empathy in film school so im trying to get in his head a bit and it's messed.

seems to be real interested in world war 2, was in air force rotc or whatever it is. from chicago. im sure his upbringing was messed up. his facebook was open before it got posted but now everything is private. he shut down his youtube channel as well

 

[Instigator]

Intolerant guy expresses intolerant opinions will probably be fired by workplace intolerant of his views.

 

[killer_clank]

He's a total idiot, but then the posters below seem like total assholes as well.

I get what you're saying, but its kind of ironic to see this kind of behaviour defended/explained via the "people don't choose to be bigots" line.

I guess this guy needs to learn a tough lesson. Its his own fault.

And you expressed empathy by posting his name and redacting everyone else's, even after he'd closed his social networking stuff to public viewing?

Truly, you have the moral high ground.

 

[sans_pants]

Truly, you have the moral high ground.

where did I ever claim a moral high ground? I'm an observer

 

[SouthernDragon]

The point is to out him and shame him for his bigoted views.

I have no problem with this.

 

[Dynamite Shikoku]

how dare he have an opinion

 

[UrbanRats]

The difference is, i don't defend homosexuality with the "people don't choose to be homosexual" because even if they did, i'd be fine with it.

 

[jaxword]

Remember how I said there were bigots on neogaf who say the same thing about homosexuality being wrong and hide behind God/Jesus/etc.?

You're arguing with one.

 

[GhaleonQ]

People often take on an anthropological tone when analyzing "the other." It's inherently demeaning.

For example, your post 13 or

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to the end of your career.

 

[Yagharek]

Some opinions are wrong. Although education rather than shaming someone would be preferable. Its really no different to racism or sexism etc.

I didn't even know who this guy was until just now. Either way, that dude is a jerk.

I know. I hope I made it clear I wasn't attributing that sentiment to you personally.

You say it's wrong, but you can't judge whether being gay is truly a sin or not. Only God can (if he exists).

 

[Al-ibn Kermit]

Serious question: If he had Roman Polanski's film making skills, would you pay to watch his movies?

I mean, there's a double-standard in real life obviously but I just can't understand why as most would classify a rape as worse than any type of sexual/religoius/racial phobia.

 

[Enco]

It was quite the ass move.

 

[GhaleonQ]

In any case, who's the most famous alumnus of UN-LV film? All I see on Wikipedia is CSI Guy.

 

[Timedog]

Oh, there's more than several. Most are too pussy to post their real opinions though.

unlv isn't a very important film school yet, but we send a ton of people to grad school

 

[Balphon]

The guy's views are abhorrent, but the groupthink behind ostracizing him seems equally pathetic.

Though maybe people have tried educating the guy and he's recalcitrant. Who knows.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

I love how people use religion to excuse their hate on other people.

"He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.", etc.

 

[jaxword]

Well, there's one so far. The only reason the usual suspects haven't arrived is because it's getting a bit late, and it's Friday night.

Post this on a Sunday afternoon and it'd be 2 pages already with Bible quotes and the usual religious debates.

It seems very unlikely, in this day and age, with this much communication, in the fairly liberal environment of creative arts, he would NOT have encountered people who tried to educate him. You have to be deliberately obtuse at this stage in the world's development to still hate homosexuality that strongly.

Is homosexuality considered a biological error of nature?

His opinion sucks.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I'm not cool with the idea of a God that creates gay people and damns them to hell for it.

 

[rCIZZLE]

A story about a bunch of assholes. I guess that's interesting enough for 4am.

 

[superfamicom]

Small side question.

Why are seem to hate gay people called homophobes?
It implies that they are scared of gay people, which doesn't really seem to be the case most of the time.

It seems to anger most people. I just was curious.

 

[i_am_ben]

Lots of people believe being gay is a sin. I'm not sure why this guy should be singled out and have his name splashed all over the internet.

 

[Mortrialus]

Not really.
