Will soaps start firing actors who aren't fully vaccinated?


Recommended Posts

Well, we also do not know if they liked it because of anti-vaccination. They could have liked it because of him standing up for himself (LOL) or for being against vaccination passports/requiring people to vaccination and/or show proof of it. Because I know Lilly Melgar (ex-Lily) posted this on his video: 

“Mandating any vaccine is wrong” ….

Plus, Rademacher just posted this 11 hours ago, and again, most of those supporting him either have private accounts or no-posts. Hilarious people will hide, yet feel the need to name-call and bully in his comment section, much like he does in his posts. As for Marcus Coloma, Chad Duell and Johnny Wactor, are we sure they are anti-vaxx? I know Coloma wiped most of his Instagram page but three posts (there were more) so it's making me wonder if something happened. Duell I do feel is pretty safe; he's posted having a mask on the set. Wactor I'm pretty sure I've seen that he has been vaxxed. I don't know. Things just seem... I don't even know. I know one of Rademacher's co-stars does not follow him on social media despite him following them. Now THAT speaks volumes to me.  Not to mention, Frank Valentini does not even follow Rademacher. It's bad when your boss does not follow you.

No, he actually wasn't. I think if the writing could've bent a bit more to him than Tyler Christopher he would've been excellent. Plus, again, his chemistry with Maura West was amazing.. though, most people have amazing chemistry with West. Hell, even she has amazing chemistry with herself.

I have never seen clips of his Jax, but I would welcome it!

Plus, seeing "he/him" in his profile kind of warms my heart. Now THAT is inclusion!

He went after a personal friend of mine on Twitter and has blamed my friend for all the blowback he's getting because of what he ha said. he's an outright jerk IMPO, and if I were leading Disney/ABC, he would be fired....TODAY.

I'm one who doesn't really care what the actors' personal beliefs are as long as they're not obnoxious about them. Like, I don't need Marcus Coloma to be recast because he might be anti-vax. But Ingo? He's completely obnoxious and sounds like an imbecile every time he opens his mouth. He can go.

Regarding the argument that we don't know for sure whether liking this post means they are anti-vaxxx.

Sure, I can see scenarios where some ppl may have liked it for other reasons - my personal speculation being about being "supportive of a colleague" since he was complaining about fan campaign to get him fired.

But in any case if you decided to publicly "like" a video full of disinformation, regardless of your reasons, you are at very least enabling a campaign that endangers you and your colleagues. And as far as I am concerned, the burden is now on YOU to prove to us you are not anti-vaxxx. They chose to be supportive of his hateful behavior; it is fair for us to make assumptions now.
There is no possible scenario in which a friend or a family member posting what IR has posted would get a like from me, regardless of my feelings about them. Liking it is giving your support.
So no sympathy from me even if they are actually vaccinated. "I am vaccinated but..." doesn't cut it anymore. If in practice you are enabling anti-vax craziness (and that includes the "But I am against vaccine passes" thing) you are functionally an ally of those who are prolonging this nightmare.
They used social media enough to like IR's post. Nothing prevents them from using it to encourage fans to get vaccinated or talk about their own vaccination status if they don't want us to be misled into thinking their like is anti-vaxxx support. 
I can accept complete silence. But the minute they got off the fence ever so slightly, they opened themselves to legitimate questions and until further notice, that was anti-vaxxx support as far as I am concerned.

Enough finding excuses for everybody. We are on track to lose three quarter of a million fellow Americans to the disease, not to mention those dying of other things because hospital beds are taken by unvaccinated idiots.
Anything short of doing all in our power to stop this tragedy is enabling it and I am going to judge actors whose work I like the same I would anyone else.

It’s possible MC didn’t even watch Ingo’s video and just Iiked the post without seeing it. Mindless liking on Insta is definitely a thing. Giving him the benefit of the doubt that he unliked it when he realized what it said.

And it’s proven to be irresponsible, unwise, and incriminating. Folx are quick to screenshot a “receipt”, a

So I am catching up on all of this mess and all I have to say is just fire all their asses (anti-vaxxers). It has been long awaited that the power in this genre needs to shift back to the TPTB and not the actors. This can be the perfect start. Make an example. There are a plethora of out-of-work actors that can fill these roles. Hell, a lot of these characters need to be killed off anyway. Time for a good slasher or catastrophe story anyway.

    • I thought today was still good. Leo is always awful, but the characters treating him like he's a plague feeds my soul. Rafe in particular had been very passive about him, but today was wonderful seeing him put Leo on notice. I really think it's being written that Javi is going to have to eventually take the blinders off and see Leo for who he really is. Them having sex on Gabi's desk made me want to explode. Roman taking in stray Doug was nice to see. And the mention of Frankie and Max was unexpected, but good to know they're at least being thought of. Tate being petty and a bit vindictive by going back to Sophia's as soon as he saw Doug with Holly was entertaining for me. I think I actually like Tate the most out of all of them because he's so damn messy.  Is Holly about to be kidnapped? Her first time? Also, Gabi finally revealing what happened with her the night EJ was shot and the clearing of all the other main suspects, but Johnny made this still feel like an important episode. I think Johnny will be cleared soon enough leaving everybody at a loss for the hell shot EJ. How the real shooter will be revealed is going to be interesting.  Speculation: When Kristen finally puts together that her daughter Rachel shot him, she'll agree to frame her mother for the crime, while keeping her hidden away from Salem.
    • That would have saved the Anita singing segment -- having her by herself, singing quietly and reflectively. Belting it out like she was in church did not work. The black screens fade at the end was a mistake. BTG insists on being different with these fades for the sake of being different, and it's not working.   I thought all of that was just fine. Worked for me.   I'm going to disagree with this. Martin hasn't had many scenes with his parents, but he's been around family A LOT -- and that's what matters. We also know Martin is someone with a hair trigger response. He can be very emotional when discussing an issue before getting to the logic and reason of it all.  
    • My view of Evan is that he's smart but not as smart as he thinks he is, not a good guy but not an entirely bad guy - he's a lot of things, the show never quite knowing what to do with them. I never saw him as Iris' follower because Iris always seemed a bit in over her head from the start. 
    • She was the Town Historian, who knew a bit too much about Brandon and the infamous cottage.  SF was still a pretty normal place at that time, with Nola and Reva being the most outrageous citizens....seems that Carrie Pipper would have stood out a bit more for people.

    • Yes, I need to dot hat. Also on my list talking to the person I got these files from since they clearly have a mess, in terms of dates being wrong. And, unfortunately finding one date wrong, automatically means more are wrong, too. 
    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83.
