Bunch of old tweets surfaced after some conservative activist outed some of his tweets from 2009-2012 making gross pedophilia jokes. Gunn hates President Trump's guts, so he was targeted by the group.
Somebody else here can post the tweets, as I'm on my phone, but mostly it reads like mindless stupidity, but yeah -- they were totally made in public on Twitter and Gunn works (worked) for Disney now, so.
I've got mixed feelings, but it's hard to argue that Gunn didn't deserve the ax, even though it's going to hurt the quality of one of the best movie properties out there. [Reply]
Sucks that he poo pooed their dear leader, and a bunch of alt right shit birds dug up tweets of jokes that were pretty lock step with the times almost a decade ago. [Reply]

Don't blame the Alt-Right. Blame the Left and their tireless crusade to destroy everything. This is just using the weapons they created against them. [Reply]

Number #4 on the Rules for Radicals in play. The Left hates it when they are forced to obey their own rules. [Reply]

Nah, the left actually holds their own accountable. The alt right recognizes this and has weaponized it. [Reply]

I hope my current bosses never look at anything I posted here in 2001.
It's funny how people who forgive all of Trump's bullshit think this is justified. Gotta have rules! But only for everybody else.
I'm a forgiving guy, but I crack back like a motherfucker when my forgiving nature is taken advantage of.
JUST THIS WEEK, Gunn was balls deep in doing the EXACT same thing because someone on the less-than-militant left tweeted that someone on the right was a nice guy.

Lock step with the times? Were you running with an African rape gang back then?
