Because everything is terrible, able-bodied actor Bryan Cranston is now having to defend his decision to portray a quadriplegic man in the new film “The Upside”:

Things can always — always — get stupider.
More from Fox News:
“We live in the world of criticism, if we’re willing to get up and try something, we have to also be willing to take criticism,” Cranston said, according to Sky News. “We’re very aware of the need to expand the opportunities for people with disabilities.”
“As actors, we’re asked to be other people, to play other people,” he added. “If I, as a straight, older person, and I’m wealthy, I’m very fortunate, does that mean I can’t play a person who is not wealthy, does that mean I can’t play a homosexual?”
“I don’t know, where does the restriction apply, where is the line for that? I think it is worthy for debate to discuss those issues,” he continued.
He’s right that the rules seem arbitrary, but he’s wrong as far as it being worth debating is concerned. SJWs aren’t interested in debate; they’re only interested in exercising complete control over everyone’s decisions and sucking the joy out of every last aspect of our lives.
Now I find out Bryan Cranston isn't a chemistry teacher who knows how to make meth, either.

The devil, you say!
In a related story, Christian Bale and Julianne Moore have apologized for portraying oppressed minorities. "It was wrong for us to portray Republicans when true Republican actors get so few opportunities in Hollywood."https://t.co/zZyjmO8akp

Ha!
Seriously, though. This crap has got to stop.
“It offends me when ____.”
That’s a you problem. Buck up buttercup. Or you’re gonna die miserable and bitter one day. This world is gonna eat you alive.

Stop letting people’s sensitivity (or pretend sensitivity) become an action item for you. It ain’t your problem. Tell them to go call mommy. That’s all.

There is no upside to indulging the SJW mob.
Bryan Cranston is being criticized for playing a quadriplegic. It was not long ago that we were half-jokingly saying "eventually people will even be mad about stuff like that!"
Welcome to eventually.
