Matt Damon wants you to know that he is better than you. Of course because he lives in a liberal bubble, his attempt at piety comes off a bit elitist and disconnected. The woke Hollywood douche revealed that he just recently stoped calling people “f*ags.” He thinks were should honor him for his bravery decades after everyone else stopped using homophobic slurs.
Film Actor’s Guild member Matt Damon is starring in a new movie nobody wants to see and he put himself through hell to get ready for the role, as Variety reports:
Matt Damon went deep into red state identity politics to build his character in Tom McCarthy’s Cannes premiere “Stillwater.”
To portray Oklahoma oil rig worker Bill Baker — a father who sacrifices everything to help free his daughter from a French prison, after she is convicted of murdering her roommate while studying abroad —— Damon spent an “absolutely critical” time doing research in the state, he said at a Friday press conference for the film.
One of the biggest laughs at the movie’s Thursday night premiere came when Damon’s character is asked by a French woman if he voted for Donald Trump. He did not, he responds, but only because a prior felony kept him from voting at all.
On Friday, Damon said Baker absolutely would’ve supported Trump.
“These guys don’t apologize for who they are,” said Damon.
The actor and his director McCarthy road tripped through Oklahoma prior to shooting, where they were invited into the break rooms and backyard barbecues of the real men who inspired the character.
“They’re in the oil business, of course he voted for Trump. These people were wonderful to us, they really helped us. It was eye-opening for me,” Damon said.
It was eyeopening to see how normal people live? Gee, that’s not an elitist attitude or anything. Also, who you calling “these people”?
“They all have goatees, the sunglasses. They’re not six-pack ab guys, but they’re strong. You go to their barbecues and a guitar comes out and they start singing Church songs,” said Damon.
Damon’s wonderment at how normal people behave is like Jane Goodall observing the chimpanzees: “These people ate barbecued ribs with their fingers and drank domestic beer out of a can. Truly fascinating.”
Why do I doubt that a bunch of Oklahoma Trump supporters invited a couple of Hollywood assholes to observe them in their natural habitat? If I had to guess, I’d say Damon in his director crashed a county fair in disguise to see how the neanderthals live.
In promoting the film, Damon revealed in an interview that he has evolved:
Matt Damon is opening up about how he is changing as a man and as a father.
In a wide-ranging interview with the Sunday Times, the 50-year-old actor and star of the new film “Stillwater” revealed that he recently stopped using the homophobic slur for gay men after his daughter said something to him about it.
“The word that my daughter calls the ‘f-slur for a homosexual’ was commonly used when I was a kid, with a different application. I made a joke, months ago, and got a treatise from my daughter. She left the table. I said, ‘Come on, that’s a joke! I say it in the movie ‘Stuck on You!’’ She went to her room and wrote a very long, beautiful treatise on how that word is dangerous. I said, ‘I retire the f-slur!’ I understood,” said Damon.
What a guy. Is there any doubt that Joe Biden will honor Damon with the Medal of Freedom for his courage to stop calling people “fags”?
This is like Damon proclaiming he is better than the commoners because he stopped using the N-word. Then again, he’s a liberal and we know those racists would never give up the mutha of all slurs.
