The question was raised yesterday in the comments. And today, Hollywood answers.

Derrickson Deletes Hateful Christmas Tweets Attacking Trump Supporters

The “Derrickson” here is Scott Derrickson, the director of “Doctor Strange” and probable director of “Doctor Strange 2,” which I now no longer seem to have much interest in spending money on.

As the article points out:

There is a trend amongst people involved with the Marvel Cinematic Universe to either be politically far to the left or have extreme hate for conservatives. James Gunn, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johannsson, Don Cheadle, Adam McKay, Brie Larson, Elizabeth Olsen, Dave Bautista, and the list goes on and on. It’s pretty clear that Disney tends to favor a single worldview when it comes to the talent that they hire.

They hate *me* (I’m neither a Trump supporter nor voter, but I suspect they’d throw me in the concentration camp if they knew of my appreciation for the AR-15). Why should I love them?

If you believe that Hollywood does not have a distinct leftist slant, I will, once again, repeat my very simple test that has so far gone unanswered: name three characters from the last, say, 20 years of major Hollywood movies and/or TV who are:

1: Republican politicians

2: The good guys

3: While retaining Republican/conservative politics.

This does not mean Republican characters who are heroes because they reject standard right-wing positions such as low taxes, small government, gun rights, anti-identity politics, etc. TV and movies are full to the brim with Democrat heroes, on up to virtually every fictional President you can find who is even remotely virtuous… but just *try* to find a Republican who’s not a villain. Just *try* to find a Libertarian *at* *all.*
