George Takei was evidently born yesterday. Because we’re not sure how else to explain this hot take he recently shared:
No one would bat an eye if an entertainer said they'd have voted for George Bush. Vocal support for Trump, by contrast, stirs backlash because he has attacked our communities, our institutions, and our values. We are not in ordinary times. They demand we all take a clearer stand.

This is total and utter crap of the highest order. There are literally THOUSANDS of Hollywood staffers who lived in fear of being found out as Bush supporters. https://t.co/jRusxM6dca

The only people who don't think voting for Bush would have caused similar, if not identical, backlash were born after 2008. https://t.co/Dy8Pnb5QII

Really!!!

Yup. Do you remember the aftermath of the 2004 election when people posted pics of themselves holding “I’m sorry” signs apologizing to the world for their dumb countrymen?

Oh I do. That so many don't is confusing.

Utter nonsense. The left equated Bush to Hitler, called him a war criminal, and labeled him a racist after Katrina. Let us not pretend supporting Bush was ever okay with the lefty dominated entertainment industry. You just didn't have the twitter mob back then. https://t.co/mkQufNt2KS
