Joss Whedon won't acknowledge Hollywood's liberalism
Every time I hear someone complain about the "liberal Hollywood agenda", I think, "They're on to us! Quick! To the lib-pods!"

If he really believes in his standing, I can't understand why he doesn't have the courage to admit that much of the contributors to the movie business are liberal, let alone himself, and believe only their ideas are worth anything. He'd probably say the same things about the comics medium if he were working on anything for them at the moment too. I guess he just doesn't have the courage to tell how he really feels at all.

Media elite live in bubbles. They preach "diversity," but everyone they know is a limousine liberal with the same attitude and opinions. So they don't know where the goal posts are. They think Michael Moore is a moderate centrist, and they think a real centrist or moderate conservative (e.g., Bill O' Reilly) is a right-wing extremist.

So, he's so biased that he doesn't know he's biased. Wow. Once again, glad I don't follow or care for his works.

Whedon once worked with Tim Minnear and Adam Baldwin, so I'm sure he believes Hollywood is overrun by libertarians and conservatives.

Here is Whedon's latest idiocy:

Since I don't watch his productions, at all, I'll just assume all of his minority characters are militant leftists. If anyone wants to correct me, please do.
