I was expecting some political speech would be at the heart of your objection, I hope your path becomes easier, and love will heal your heart.
I suppose what prompts my useless response is my grandmother. She was a hard core bible beater even had a doctorate in theology, and did a lot of good in the world, , but was also a my way or the highway person, everyone outside of her beliefs was going straight to hell, she was considered a pain in the ass by most, god was on her side. Now people let mass media tell them they are right and who to curse. An excuse to e a know it all and a bully.
Perhaps if you remembered democracy requires a contest where the better ideas win, you could accept others ideas more easily. Probably someone in your family has fought for democracy at some time and what else you do you want to go with?
As the saying goes, life is change, our life is what our thoughts make it, I can't see how you figure your end game, but I am not going to try to change a grown man.
Myself,I never cared for the actor Seymour Hoffman, just looking at the guy bugged me, something about his skin distracted me so much, it took me out of the movie. ..
I avoided his films because of it. I did go see him playing elron hubbard in the film about starting scientology , where he put in such big work, I forgot how uncomfortable watching him made me. It was only after he died as a junkie that I figured out why just seeing his skin upset me so much. The guy wasn't healthy.
You have picked some big stars to hate on, big enough that they can get projects moving that might have languished otherwise.
I don't know about their personal life, but when i go to obscure movies around town, i see and hear people in the movie industry , and actors that can swing that many paychecks into action are pretty well thought of. everyone excepts that most jobs will have a few a holes running around, and baby always needs a new pair of shoes. pitch a fit if you want, I see only self destruction as a result, so I try to look at the bright side when people bug me. Because otherwise, they are controlling my actions. I don't need someone I don't even respect running my life.
It is pretty easy to judge others, and that is not my intent.I have my own problems and only seek to wish you well with yours.

Artists have lately crossed the line of making their public politics well known. Let me give you a better example... Lucille Ball was a life-long Republican, EVERYONE knew it! She didn't parade her beliefs or support of her party in public. All these years later she is STILL the reigning TV comedian of all time... THAT to me shows class and a caring for her public and fan base to NOT push her personal agenda on her adoring public... Streep, DeNiro, Cher and Madonna (among MANY others) should take a lesson! As a PAYING customer I have the right to support artists as I choose..End of story...
