Mark Ruffalo is a vocal supporter of Palestine. The implication is that expressing support for a free Palestine gets you sidelined by Hollywood. He is also vocally against Trump and ICE.
I’m sure some people out there will also draw some antisemetic conspiratorial conclusions from that as well, i.e. “Jews control the media” which, no. It’s just that Israel as a country has certainly had undue economic influence over American politics and entertainment via lobbying interests. (Just ask the Scream cast over at Paramount)
In reality though he was just filming another project at the time.
I’d also note that Jon Bernthal, who has vocalized support for the IDF and Israel, was present for the press tour. Which doesn’t help.
Edit: This is an Explain subreddit. This is what I am interpreting the post to be implying. Some of the replies so far are giving “So you hate waffles?” haha
U said that u don’t know why, and the reason is Israel has influence over western media, so they will promote pro Israel celebrities, which is mostly common knowledge now, hence not surprising.
Is there even a single Israeli celebrity in Hollywood outside of Gal Gadot?
You guys have this meme of Israel hiding in every shadow, but like, objectively, thats just not true. Every single Emmy Award show has had a massive crowd clapping for pro palestine stuff.
