Why would I admire any actor?
Edit to add thoughts behind this comment since I seem to have agitated someone.
The only time I see an actor is in a context where they are pretending to be a character in a story. If I admire them, am I really in admiration of them, or the person they are pretending to be. It can't really be the former since I never really see their authentic self. If the latter, I'm really judging the combination of the actor, writers, editors, and the countless other people that influenced how the character is portrayed.
So with all that said, why would I admire an actor?
Then the question is not for you. Should have ignored it and scroll along.
You didn't answer my question. You could have just ignored it and scrolled along, but I won't say that is what you should do. After all, what kind of person tries to tell people how they should contribute to a conversation?
And what did you contribute to the conversation?
Primarily my point of view, but I have also pointed out some hypocrisy.
Do you feel your contribution has been useful?
