Actor, comedian and singer Black said today: “I was blindsided by what was said at the show on Sunday. I would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence in any form. After much reflection, I no longer feel it is appropriate to continue the Tenacious D tour, and all future creative plans are on hold. I am grateful to the fans for their support and understanding.”

Whatever the motivation behind those words it's the classy thing to do. And it set's a line of what is acceptable and unacceptable going forward.

And he didn't double down. Which makes him leaps and bounds better than most with TDS these days.

I'm gonna be the bigger man here (fat chance) and say good on Jack Black.

My last name is not Black.

I’m going to guess that Black’s stance has less to do with his thoughts on political violence and far more to do with wanting to not get fired from the next mario movie. Hell he might even drop KG from the band and replace him with Chris Pratt, rebrand as the dixie cucks

But I agree that it’s good he’s not inflaming things further

That's still a better mentality than a lot in Hollywood, I'm not going to say inflammatory shit so I can get gigs.

See some people have actually lost their jobs already by praising the Trump assassination attempt so window has shifted a bit.

so window has shifted a bit.

I actually made a post, just before the site overloaded and shut down (so most probably missed it), where I predict this event indicates a massive shift in narrative and a coming sea change in the popular consciousness. This may be the moment that the pendulum reaches its apex and begins its backswing. I could easily see this as the beginning of the end of the woke/dei/esg madness (atleast the popular acceptance), landslide shift red in the house and senate along with trump. So I absolutely agree, the window is in the process of its biggest shift in decades.

And here’s hoping we can treat the libtards in our lives as poorly as they treated us. If not worse.
