Lost a lot of respect for this man


He'll never be looked at the same way again by his co-workers. And that perhaps a good thing.

At least they'll know how much he hates them deep down inside

In the long run it might be a good thing if it allows him to address the wheel-barrel of resentments he appears to be carrying around.

racism, sexism, homophobia - were there any other groups of people that gary, 56, completely insulted in that "playboy" interview? (and at 56, gary is nowhere near a "boy") - calling any woman, nancy Pelosi(74), or any other woman, a "worthless" "cu*t" was completely unacceptable, too, and all I've really heard him apologize about was insulting jewish people - he completely insulted women, gay people, people of color, people of different religions, etc. - I now see him like mel Gibson, 58, alec Baldwin, 56, etc. - people/everyone makes mistakes every day, and that's what apologies are for, but when the same mistakes are repeated several/many times, it becomes that much more difficult to forgive that person/people - approaching your 60s/old age is tough for everyone, but totally insulting people/groups of people isn't ok, and gary said, "this is [my] brutal honesty" - dealing with different cultures and "types"/groups of people every day can be challenging at times, but there are good things that every person can "bring to the table" for other people

and at least Gibson was inebriated and Baldwin was in a blind rage.
What's Oldmans' excuse?

(And Baldwin, I believe, has made sincere efforts over a long period of time to be accepting of other people, whatever he did in a fit of rage. I really don't think that that's the case with Gibson.)

But Gary was right about everything. You can't censor everything forever Mr. Goldstein.

I haven't read the interview yet, but from what you've written, I see that it's even worse than I thought.
