    I mean, does it really matter? I don’t follow the situation, but his lack of opinion on this matter can be a blight on his reputation but it doesn’t change what he did for other victims.

    Besides, who cares about a celebrity’s opinion anyway?

      I don’t care about celebrities’ opinions. But in this day and age, those fuckers are listened to by impressionable people who have 24/7 access to their voices.

        Well, clearly you do care about Ashton Kutcher’s opinion if you are asking about it.

        And that is why it is constantly in the news. It is a lot easier to keep your mouth shut if people aren’t asking you what your thoughts on gun control are at a press junket for Fortress or whatever nonsense that was.

        Personally? I like when people are given an opportunity to show their ass. But you don’t get to pretend you are above it all when you are looking for that hot goss.

          Eh, let’s give the benefit of the doubt. I ask questions about things I don’t care about all the time especially at work.

          Where did I say that I ask for Ashton Kutcher’s opinion? You missed the point I was trying to make. I don’t care about what celebrities have to say, and I wish other people didn’t either, because unfortunately when they say dangerous things, then it spreads like fire. Case in point: celebrity antivaxxers and covid deniers.

      I would say here, it matters.

      Because of his work with Thorn: Digital Defenders of Children. This doesn’t just hurt his reputation, but very specifically because of the nature of the foundation, could hurt it too. Hopefully it doesn’t, but I’d be surprised if there wasn’t something
