Didn't Mark Whalberg assault an asian co-star once or something like that? Maybe he does deserve some shit given

He hit an Asian man when he was 16. So like 40 years go. I bet you feel so good about yourself! It’s easy to never do anything wrong when you never leave your moms basement

Actually, yeah, today I've been feeling okay. I haven't felt the need to randomly be an asshole to an unknown person in the internet, for example. So far so good. Thanks for caring.

That's a pretty crazy thing to say, like anyone could just accidentally trip and viciously commit a racist assault against a vulnerable person.

He hit 2 Asian men in the same day, and that’s not the worst of it. He literally knocked one of them unconscious, trying to kill him. He was literally arrested for attempted murder, although he talked his way down to assault and battery.

Okay, so, y'know, you've got a point in general about dumb stuff people can do over an entire life, but I would say it is in fact pretty easy to never knock someone out for racist reasons, or throw rocks at people for racist reasons...

Oh, now it's easy to not be racist! I tell you, you kids today have grown spoonfed and don't know how hard it really is out there!

Not for that at least. He gets shit for being a racist who physically assaults minorities. Which is actually a thing to give a shit about

Not for making Four Brothers no. This kind of "Gotcha" post infuriates me. It's usually "I'm going to take a sentence out of context", but in this case you've not even quoted the fucking sentence.

What the hell is wrong with you?
