John Wayne was a racist drunk who beat his wife and kids. No wonder the Right Wingers love him so

To hear her amusing reply. Ordinarily I don't recommend reading TFA, but I'll allow it for this one. Good for her. Also, Sacheen is a very cool name. No idea what it means, but I like it. 'Yo Sach, you need another beer?'

Rather specific.  In my experience, people frequently troll/criticize others on the exact topics that they hate within themselves.  accurate?

I know you're trying to play on the "homophobes often are secretly gay" trope but this doesn't make sense at all.

I'm not 'trying' anything.   Spend 5 minutes on Facebook and watch how people troll, then go look at their profile.  For instance, there was a thread about Rihana... and some girl pipes up randomly that Rihanna looks like a 'mole-rat'.    i look at the girls page, and she has big buck teeth and a gummy smile, and i would bet my life she was called a mole rat growing up.    Her calling a Rihanna that same word makes her feel better about herself.   I don't even think its a conscious thing.

I understand your argument it's just very obviously flawed and has lead to such conclusions such as thinking it is suspiciously specific that people would accuse John Wayne of things that are on his Wikipedia page.

He wasn't even in the top 50 of Hollywood drunks.
His main vice was smoking.

It's a lot more likely that his 5 pack a day habit played a bigger part in his death than that Genghis Khan movie.

Right, at age 72, down to one lung and on supplemental oxygen, drunk and obese he was a threat to anyone? Makes a good outrage story though.

Also, did anyone ever actually confirm that actually happened? As I recall it was one person making that claim.

He smoked between 5 and 7 packs of cigarettes a day for decades, long after the warnings were issued about the effects. What a dumbass POS. Also, he couldn't act worth a damn and never, ever seemed like a tough guy in all those hardass movie roles. What a clown.

What does that have to do with anything having to do with the allegation that 12 guys had to restrain him from attacking somebody at the Academy Awards?

I'm just happy I don't have to see an Native Americans on my butter, or an Pancake person of Color on my syrup or some African guy on my rice. As a white dude, I can now eat my food without feeling some sort of privilege. Of course I''ll still feel like I'm oppressing some one while I eat (after all why should whites eat?) but, at least I don't have to look at pictures of people I'm oppressing while I eat.

OK Brando. Meanwhile Whites are constantly portrayed in movies today as Nazies and KKK. What's your point again?

Something like 90 out of 200 people on location for that movie ended up with cancer.

Fallout in the dust certainly didn't help anything, and inhaling a particle that's an alpha emitter is a good way to get the "hot spot" effect.

What's scarier is that 4 people on the set of "Family Ties" developed early-onset Parkinson's.  The incidence rate is about 2% per million, which makes 4 out of 100 or so cast and crew very unusual.
