…is that he’s a domestic violence committing, female co-star intimidating asshole. You can read the details of what he did to his female partner at the link. Regarding his treatment of female costars: Keira Knightly didn’t want him spanking her during one of their scenes in a film & said so while tied up; in reply he said “Keira, you’re tied to a bed. You’re not really in a position to say that.” So when a woman is obviously scared and uncomfortable, his response is to scare her further, really make her feel her powerlessness to control what happens to her body. So that happened. And then some of his fans talked shit about her for not fully appreciating how wonderful it would be to get nonconsensually struck by him.

Basically, I don’t understand the attraction at all. I don’t understand. I want to push him out an airlock every time I have to see his hateful face. I want him and every other man who abuses women off my fucking planet. Kinda now.

But, yanno, I also want to shout “he freaking beat his wife!” whenever I see Sean Penn, so I guess I’m just a ~sensitive bitch~.

I find it interesting that I see their faces on my dash semi-regularly (mostly Fassbender), but apparently Chris Brown’s attractiveness isn’t sufficient to make his domestic violence inconsequential.

[Gif removed of the word “This” in lights, blinking rapidly.]

Reblogging because a) commentary is golden, true, and important and b) for anyone who hasn’t heard about what an asshole Fassbender is.

You wanna condemn Chris Brown for what he did to Rihanna, good. It was wrong. But make sure that’s why you’re condemning him rather than because Chris Brown isn’t the Hot White Boy du jour that all the white fangirls are into.

Oh, and on another note - Fassbender creeps me out. He seems to have that devious kind of “I enjoy being a complete dick and I’m just waiting to see how I can do something bad to you just because it amuses me” look about him, especially when he smiles. Come on, this is a creepy ass smile, folks.

EXACTLY! It really, REALLY bothers me that Chris Brown gets the righteous condemnation he deserves but with Fassbender “oh, well I just don’t know”. SURE it’s because you’re trying to be fair and not because you don’t actually want to fuck Chris Brown the way you want to fuck Fassbender. SURE.
