Sometimes I think celebrities should have to pass some kind of standardized test before they’re allowed to express political opinions. There is nothing more obnoxious than that fallacy of “I have an audience, therefore my opinion has weight equivalent to people who actively research or study.”

I actually dread famous people who are on the same side of an issue as I…it often turns out they’re making their case via the dumbest, most-privilege-having, condescending way possible.
