HE deemed jokes about pedophilia (or racism, homophobia, and etc.) as okay when they never have been. For ANYONE.

Oh, "For ANYONE"? I guess that explains the success of Always Sunny, Eastbound & Down / Will Ferrell / Danny McBride, Larry David / Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sarah Silverman, every comedian who has ever told The Aristocrats, and on and on and on....

Jokes are jokes. Tasteless or not.

I agree with her points. I have been in favor of just sending Gunn to the abyss from day 1 and I am actually really excited that Disney seems to have no interest in backing down. Bye Felicia! Lets get some better voices up in here.

I made it to here:
Defending Gunn is less about drawing some deal-breaking moral line and more about defending the assumed right of White men to do or say shitty things in the name of edginess and provocation and escape judgment or punishment.

And I'm out. It's well written. I like the style a lot. I just don't agree.

Bored of hearing about this topic but I agree wholeheartedly with everything she says.

There's plenty of threads on the subject of James Gunn already, and not every fresh take needs its own thread. Thanks.
