Tim Robbins is a fine actor, but as with most folks who live or work in that world, he has been a reliable progressive mouthpiece. Environment begets and all that, maybe as a survival instinct until it becomes who you are. But sometimes, there’s a spark, and you ask questions outside the approved narrative.
It seems, all on his own, Robbins discovered that the anti-mask protesters (for example) were not the people the media and politicians described. They were folks, many like him, and it started him on a journey beyond the approved narratives.
He wondered why they changed the definition of vaccines or reversed course on years of virus response tactics. Why was the vaccine harmful under Trump (no one would take that) but mandatory under Biden (you have to get it)?
And what seems to have tipped him off the edge is the calls to reject health care for people who were not vaccinated. How could you say you care about people on the one hand and then take an uncompromising stand against helping people who need emergency care?
The pacing’s a bit slow, but it is an interesting journey as Tim Robbins, career lib, talks through how he got here from there, what got him thinking, and why.
The next question is; does this, as it has with many, translate to other topics and issues? He also seems offended at the attacks on free speech, so maybe there’s more light at the end of this tunnel.
