ACTOR DWAYNE ‘THE ROCK’ JOHNSON Slams ‘Snowflake’ Culture: “Putting us backwards”
100percentfedup.com ^ | Jan 11, 2019 | Staff

Actor Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has considered jumping into politics in the past:

“It would be a great opportunity to help people, so it’s possible.”

We wish he would do it because we have a feeling he understands the culture of the leftists who are offended by just about everything.

Johnson spoke at the Republican Convention in 2000 (see video below) and is a Registered Republican. He gets that the snowflakes are killing our freedoms including freedom of speech.

In fact, the WWE wrestler-turned superstar actor just slammed the “snowflake” culture in an interview with the U.K.’s Daily Star.

Johnson thinks complaints by liberal ‘snowflakes’ do a disservice to our soldiers who fought for freedom of speech:

“So many good people fought for freedom and equality…but this generation is looking for a reason to be offended. If you are not agreeing with them then they are offended…and that is not what so many great men and women fought for.”

Johnson claims that he may not agree with someone on politics but he will support their “right say or believe it”.

‘The Rock’ says that it’s just democracy and is thankful that we have the freedom now to be and do what we want:

“We thankfully now live in a world that has progressed over the last 30 or 40 years.”

“People can be who they want, be with who they want, and live how they want. That can only be a good thing…but generation snowflake or, whatever you want to call them, are actually putting us backwards.”

We agree 100% with ‘The Rock’!

> The old joke “everyone has a right to my opinion” is not a joke to liberals. They’re offended by anyone with a different point of view. <

Yesterday’s liberals: I hear what you are saying. But I disagree with you.

Today’s liberals: I disagree with you. So I don’t want to hear what you are saying. And I will prevent everyone else from hearing you.

I’d bet $10 on that, too.

He’s half Samoan. Polynesians aren’t part of the racial flip flap; they get along with everyone and just do their thing.

Statements like this one are the next thing that needs to happen. We need to start pouring water on the PC fire and treating it like the polyester leisure suit era.

I’m confused wasn’t Johnson a huge Obongo supporter?

I’d vote for him as President in 2024 if only for the fact that the USA would have a leader who could literally kick the crap out of anyone else’s leader!

Huh. I thought he was a Leftist. Glad to hear that might not be the case. I don’t have a problem with an entertainer who is a Lefty, as long as they aren’t pushing it in my face. If I only hear them sing, and not preach, I am fine. If I only see them act, and not proselytize, that is okay.

It is their personal life.

Oddly, I did not even realize he was black for a long time, I thought he was Samoan, Central American...almost anything else.

I must say, his skin looks far darker in that picture than it appears in his movies, IMO.

People are pushing him to run now (maybe he will, I don't know)

In a primary with Donald Trump in it, I would vote for Trump every time.)

If Donald Trump is not on the ticket or doesn't win the primary I would vote for Dwayne Johnson.
