Oh look, Sally Kohn quoted Jimmy Kimmel pretending Hollywood doesn’t care about making movies for money. Although to be fair, with the way their ticket sales are going (down, down, down), Kimmel may have accidentally been onto something here.
Except for the fact that he was trying to make a dig at Mike Pence who has for whatever reason become Hollywood’s go-to when they want to make a lame gay joke.
“We don’t make films like Call Me By Your Name to make money. We make them to upset Mike Pence.” – @jimmykimmel #Oscars

We’d honestly be shocked if Pence even knew what the movie was about but OK JIMMY.
Zingity zing zing!
One of the most outspoken gay Conservatives in social media, Chad Felix Greene, took issue not only with Sally Kohn sharing Jimmy’s joke but with the movie ‘Call Me By Your Name’ as well. Greene has been voicing concerns about this movie as a gay man for several months …
I would assume Mike Pence, like all rational, responsible people, would be unhappy about a celebration of teenage sexual abuse.
An adult man exploits a teenage boy.
I'm a gay man and this upsets me greatly.#beBetter#MeToo https://t.co/m1yeTqhjuE

But Pence! Gays! Hollywood!
. @RealChalamet’s character was 17 and a few months shy of being able to legally buy a gun. So I’m curious, do you think he’s old enough for violence but too young for love?! https://t.co/VqJ3s0tkY9

Wait, did Sally really just bring up guns to justify teenage sexual abuse?
Because wow.
I think:
1) He was a minor and an adult sexually exploited him.That isn't love. Its sexual abuse.
2) The right to bear arms is not about violence. Its about self-defense.
Are you really comparing the choice of self-defense with being sexually exploited? https://t.co/gju7fVUrqT

And yes, yes she was.
Man, she is something else.

What that is, we’re not ENTIRELY sure though.
Best not to assume.
Heh.
There is a sickness in Hollywood, where they don't recognize their own hypocrisy.

Their egos and ideas of self-importance are destroying their own industry.
Way to go, Hollywood!
