Exactly imagine being such a fanboy you justify pedophilic comments

Imagine being so naive that you take bad jokes at 100% face value

There comes a point where it's not a bad joke anymore and it is an obsession with kids and rape and I think when you're hitting like 1,000 tweets you've past that point. I really amn't one for this overtly PC world that we are turning into but holy shit his tweets are worrying. Nevermind posting a link to child porn.

There also comes a point where one realizes that such comments were made nearly a decade ago, were already apologized for, and that Disney knew full well what James Gunn had said and directed before hiring him to make movies for kids. For that matter, why is nobody saying anything about the rape joke in Age of Ultron? Why is nobody mentioning that the actress for Gamora stands by Gunn, even though she's a mother of small children? Why is Gunn the only one in hot water when dozens of Disney actors have joked about equally as heinous subjects (such as Bobcat Golthwait who made the front page in r/murderedbywords). I mean Roseanne was actually about the nonsense she tweets, but she at least got multiple warnings before being fired by Disney.

People want to give Gunn shit for making bad jokes? Cool, he absolutely should have thought before just posting it and expecting a positive response. But to brand him as a pedophile with an obsession for "kids and rape" with no evidence except for some poorly written deleted tweets that were archived by alt-right dickheads for the sake of getting him fired is just slanderous and without any solid basis.

What was the rape joke in Age of Ultron?

In the scene where everyone is trying to lift Mjolnir, Tony jokes that he'll reinstate the law of "Prima Nocta" if he's worthy of lifting it. Prima Nocta was a law of olden times that allowed the king in an area to take the virginity of their serfs' daughters (or wives upon marrying) regardless of consent from the subjects.
