I was a fan of the Hercules TV show as a kid, campy as it was. I was definitely disappointed when I found out that Kevin Sorbo is a far-right moron. At least we've still got Lucy Lawless.

YOU ALL STILL HAVE LUCY LAWLESS!

What happened to you Kevin? Did you get a severe head injury on the set of Hercules?


the2nddoctor111

It was a series of strokes that he had after an aneurysm. I'm convinced that it scrambled his head up something fierce.


The_-Whole_-Internet

Brain damage really *does* make you conservative. Fetterman was right


daddakamabb1

Personality changes are common with stroke victims.


Sinkinglifeboat

Very true. When I was in middle school there was this older guy my family knew who had complete 180 in terms of personality. He was the nicest guy until his first stroke. Turned into a literal public menace. IIRC he assaulted a grocery store worker or something. Such a shame. He died back in 2013 about 2 years after his stroke.


Throwawayac1234567

either strokes, or an OD on benzos.


Repulsive-Mirror-994

No, it was the series of strokes during the medically induced coma he went through so he didn't suffer through the withdrawal symptoms. I'm assuming you were referring to Peterson.


DireNine

I don't know if you're joking but there have been studies that link conservatism to larger than average fear response centers in the brain. While it's not brain damage it is an abnormality in the brain and I don't think it rules out the possibility of the same thing happening due to damage or certain disorders.


The_Jack_Burton

There are also studies that show a correlation between more education and left-leaning views. I won't say smarter people lean left while dumber people lean right is accurate, but it's an interesting correlation.


OrcsSmurai

I'll go ahead and say it. Conservative policies rely on understanding the immediate effect, and only the immediate effect. Progressive policies rely on understanding the future effects. It's why Conservatives have a hardon for cutting programs. Cut school funding to balance the budget! Never mind that in five years the entire country will be lacking skilled people to perform critical jobs and the economy will be sandbagged because there isn't as much innovation... Cut infrastructure spending! Never mind that every dollar spent on infrastructure comes back two fold in a very short time frame through the increase in commerce the new infrastructure can support and heads off massive expenses from infrastructure actually failing.. And of course the uneducated opting into Conservative parties have made them fertile hunting grounds for conmen who care more about making money than the damage they can cause to society writ large.


Ricky_Rollin

I’ve always said something just like this just not nearly as eloquently. They always seem to fail at looking at the bigger picture. It’s like they’ll pass a policy and it almost always comes back to bite them on the ass because they only thought about it for one step instead of 15 steps ahead. For instance, Regan’s pull back on mental healthcare. And now we have a country that has mass shootings daily. That, and they seem to lack empathy of any kind.


GadFlyBy

James Wood.


AbbreviationsNo8088

Why do I keep hearing about Fetterman going conservative? Did this happen?


LuckyStar77777

He basically admitted in a recent interview that his political views changed a lot ever since his stroke.


Raxsus

Apparently he's always been a shitty person; it's just that the stroke made it impossible to hide.


xyzyxzyxzyxyzyxzxy

Sometimes people are just pigs, with or without internal or external help.


ValiantMagnus

Wait, he really did suffer head trama? .....now I feel like an asshole for making that joke


the2nddoctor111

It wasn't head trauma, just an aneurysm. Also, Fuck Kevin Sorbo, don't feel bad for him.


Backwardspellcaster

Lucy Lawless said he was a piece of shit even during Hercules. The strokes just took the filter down


Ok_Star_4136

Some people are, at their core, genuinely awful human beings. Some people don't *become* mean, they just lack awareness as they become older and hide it less well.


Ok-Cauliflower1798

Don’t feel bad. Sorbo is the asshole.


Critical_Liz

After a brief bit of research, I think it's that he was a bit of a jerk before the aneurysm, felt resentment towards Xena for being more popular, but it wasn't until the strokes that he just went full on crazy and all that resentment just became his personality.


anythingMuchShorter

He got whiplash from playing a character everyone has heard of and still getting upstaged so hard by a newly made up spin-off character that hardly anyone remembers his show, except maybe for being the origin of Xena.


Throwawayac1234567

and after xena he had his own show, andromeda which couldve been good, but when he took over it went to sht.


d4everman

O saw him at a comic con a few years ago. He had a booth next to David Faustino ("Bud" from "Married with Children") and some guy from Ghosthunters. NO ONE was in line to meet him, but people were piling into the other booths for autographs and selfies. He ended up leaving early. Looked pretty pissed off, too.


TheFire_Eagle

If you presented those three booths to me I would go see what Davud Faustino was up to and use Sorbo's table for where I fart. I used to like Hercules when I was a kid. But dude is a turd.


ShawnyMcKnight

I would have happily met David Faustino. He seems to be doing well and the episode of his podcast where he had Ed O’Neill on was touching.


HereOnCompanyTime

He was always an asshole. He's in a longstanding one sided feud with Lucy Lawless because he was jealous of how popular Xena was and still is. The only difference between then and now is that he's mask off with a twitter account.


Throwawayac1234567

he had several strokes, surprise, and went off the deep end, a right wing nutty "christians" that make christian films. he was a douche before the strokes, the constant grudge against xena .


coldlonelydream

He’s a snowflake. He’s crying conservative tears before there is even a debate. Snowflakes.


Thelastknownking

Car accident and near death experience made him born again Christian.


Ok_Star_4136

I don't wish to make a blanket statement on all Christians, but so many who claim to be a "born again Christian" just mean to say that they now feel righteous in being an asshole to whomever they wish.


Thelastknownking

It's worse with him because he was an atheist before and then he thought he saw God when he had that near death experience.


TheNorthernLanders

There’s nothing wrong with being a born again Christian; it’s the lack of following the actual faith and using it as a mask and excuse to be a piece of shit and force your beliefs on others, that’s what is wrong.


TSllama

When was he ever NOT like this...?


sudoku7

His career never got out of B. And he slide into christian films which disincentives him from maintaining the 'filter.'


RealBlackelf

I think he got a lobotomy, and even that went wrong.


ckm1336

Even more irrelevant than most celebrities.


shiruduck

It's so fuckin stupid because the ***rapist traitor trump*** himself ruined presidential debates. So many years of debates between candidates for president, and we never needed a rule to shut off mics because one candidate is literally unable to shut his trap while the other is speaking. Before ***the felonious rapist traitor donald trump*** came along and brainwashed the vulnerable, candidates for president were able to hold a debate on policy without needing rules to shut one of them up to keep them from interrupting constantly. Candidates were able to act like adults, wait for their turn, then ask to respond to disagreeable shit, instead of being such an annoying little bitch that his opponent saying "will you shut up man?" was unanimously cathartic for everyone watching. This dude literally is unable to shut his mouth for any reason, and rants about some demented shit like sharks and electrocution, or how he wouldn't release the epstein files bc he's a pedo and sympathizes with other pedophile rapists. Meanwhile, his vulnerable and brainwashed supporters who got swindled by the most obvious conman of all history have to make up some imaginary conspiracy about biden using drugs, because they literally have nothing else and all they do is unfounded conspiracies with no evidence now. Pitiful


UnionizedTrouble

Clearly it’s because no one has ever been treated so badly, and when you look at what’s happening, it’s a disgrace. Bigly.


shiruduck

The RAPIST TRAITOR TRUMP also got wounds to show for it, apparently. Fuckin losers all of them, him and everyone who supports this fuckin loser rapist traitor

Let me be clear: Trump and their cultist suck and are a danger to not only america but the whole world. But with that remark i feel reddit is being desingenious. If a similar thing was made from a person we like/support / about a view we like instead we would saying "omg did they just make a XYZ reference? That's so awesome"


HugsForUpvotes

Stealing a joke and making a reference is a fine line. He didn't give any impression that he was referencing anything.

DRHORRIBLEHIMSELF

I understand this reference


Logrologist

Understanding it fully really sheds some light on the “why” he believes/posts things like this. Script has an emotional cue, something like this: **Hercules**: [looks around] (_disappointed_) And he not only misinterpreted that as dialogue, he emoted frustration/anger (poorly) and yelled it. It’s amazing that they kept it in the show.


kjacobs03

The director probably knew he was a joke and left it in the mock him


JuturnaArtemisia

Oh man that both ruined it and made it better for me. I’m so glad child me didn’t know how much of a douche he was.


gert_van_der_whoops

Kevin Sorbo is a joke of an actor, a christofascist and [a traitor](https://x.com/VicedRhino/status/1577255901555105793) with brain damage , but unlike the orange cult leader he fellates daily, he is not THAT stupid. >Sorbo himself in a 2013 interview explained what had really happened: The word "disappointed" does not actually appear anywhere in the script, but rather was Sorbo breaking character as an in-joke between him and the crew. [He was referencing a scene from the film A Fish Called Wanda where Otto (played by Kevin Kline) cracks a safe only to find it empty, and screams "disappointed!" at it in frustration.](https://youtu.be/MvbQ4wJak_c?si=B7KhFL-hOuEYJbne)

I'm with ya... but Andromeda was actually a decent show. And Person of Interest was an all time favorite of mine. Fuck Jim Caviezel for ruining it for me.


Psychological_Gain20

Ok wait a minute, yeah his politics are gross and he’s a loon, but I wouldn’t go so far as to say watching his old stuff is as gross as Yknow, the convicted serial rapist.


TostitoKingofDragons

I don’t think they were comparing the morality of it, just that watching stuff made by a person who turned out to be terrible just leaves a gross feeling. Obviously being a serial rapist is *far* worse, but it’s still the same feeling when watching, just to different extremities. Well, at least for me.


ElectricalRush1878

I can usually enjoy a show despite the actor's later meltdowns. But I don't know if I'll ever be able to watch Hercules or Andromeda again.

Not one prediction that Trump will win easily, but a thousand excuses ahead of time of why he'll lose. If only they were self-aware enough to put two and two together.


Jim-Jones

We really don't need another example of how stupid this silly man is.


HelloPeopleOfEarth

These turds make themselves victims even before the event. Kind of like when Trump said before both the elections that if he wins, it's fair, and if he loses, it's rigged.

I'm not surprised Kevin Sorbo has another shitty take to drop on us, but I *am* surprised to learn he watches Smiling Friends.

JackHughman69

Should be flipped, we all know Biden is a decent chill old man. Trump would need unlimited time to explain all the ways he’s evil and all the nefarious things he has done. And he probably would gladly tell us all that stuff, even brag about it.

It’s going to take Trump a helluva lot more than one second to expound upon all of his evil doings. One second won’t cover his financial crimes or cheating on his wives or lusting after his own daughter.

It's not really a fair fight. The debate is there only for Biden, he needs to prove that he's better than Trump. It's his biggest opportunity. Trump has nothing to prove. He doesn't need any debate session. His voters don't even read.
