Robert De Niro told an awards ceremony a speech he was reading had been edited without his knowledge, removing critical comments about Donald Trump.

    Not a sportsballs fan so I don’t get your last part, except the word dribble probably means basketball, idk. All that aside, yes, I would absolutely fucking love it if celebrities stayed in thier lanes, assuming that’s the same idea as what you’re mentioning.

      Will you please stay in your lane?

      What the fuck qualifies you to criticize a celebrity online? Do you have any expertise in holding opinions or sharing them?

      You’re an internet commenter, write about what you had for lunch and stop weighing in on shit you know nothing about. This isn’t the place for it, either.

      /s

      Now do you get it?

        I’m not broadcasting on TV. It’s hardly a fair and equal comparison. Lemmy is a tiny shithole, my opinions here aren’t exactly echoing around the world.

          Broadcasting on TV these days is less likely to reach a wide audience than posting on the internet, but a platform is a platform.

          Consider how you might feel if your tiny opinions got picked up and went viral, but then the comments they quote from Lemmy were incomplete and left you looking like an idiot.

          Sound cool to you?

      Sooo…. Unless you are a politician, YOU should stay in YOUR lane. Because according to you, there’s no reason you should have an opinion.

      Stay in your lane.

        Yes she especially should stay in her lane. And preferably just altogether stop in general.

          Clarify your tortuously muddled stance on celebrity opinions. I need to ask because of the subpar quality of your previous posts.

            I’ll be honest, the history is full of takes I would expect from a conservative who hasn’t tried to explain the issues of the day.

              Don’t really need to dig, experience has shown self-aggrandizers to have a chip on their shoulder, and not much else to provide.

              Debate for the sake of debate, wasting everyone else’s time while they’re at it.

          Why? And can you answer my other question: What are the requirements to be able to talk freely?

          Holy shit you’re embarrassing. If anyone should stop altogether, it’s you- but unlike you, I accept that you have the right to speak your mind and share your opinion- and I wouldn’t stand in the way of this.

          However, it doesn’t stop me from sharing my opinion that people like you should get a proper education before speaking publicly.
