Dwayne Johnson is quickly learning that it’s best for him to stick to entertainment and stop getting into politics and culture. It’s just not his cup of tea.
First, he supported Joe Rogan. Then, after a video was compiled of Rogan taken out-of-context while using the “N-word,” Johnson denounced him. According to Breitbart:
Joe Biden-backing Hollywood star and Black Lives Matter supporter Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson responded to criticism of his support for podcaster Joe Rogan, stating “I was not aware of his N-word use prior to my comments,” adding that this has been a “learning moment” for him.
“Thank you so much for this. I hear you as well as everyone here 100%,” Johnson said to one critic. “I was not aware of his N word use prior to my comments, but now I’ve become educated to his complete narrative. Learning moment for me. Mahalo, brother and have a great & productive weekend.”
Dear @donwinslow

I hear you as well as everyone here 100%
I was not aware of his N word use prior to my comments, but now I've become educated to his complete narrative.

But then he made his biggest blunder. He started deleting old Tweets. This is a big no-no in the woke world of virtue signaling. Everyone knows that if you’re going to condemn someone for bigotry, it’s best to delete examples of bigotry from one’s own timeline first. The Rock didn’t do that. Twitter pounced.
The Rock spoke out against Joe Rogan but is too dumb to delete his old bigoted tweets first.

Wow, @TheRock, you can’t just try to quietly delete transphobic attacks without giving a groveling apology and expect to ever work in Hollywood again.
Do @UnderArmour, @Ford, @Apple, @Netflix and the rest of his sponsors/partners agree with this hateful rhetoric? pic.twitter.com/tkS0jpv5gw

lol “@TheRock” is deleting dodgy tweets.
He wanted to judge others and now he’s going to see how far that gets him.
A lot of really bad stuff about him has been sent my way.
And I’m not only person receiving information.
Sleep well, DJ.

It isn’t over yet. Old videos of The Rock being racist started spreading across Twitter as well.
Our Agency Asia Magazine editorial team just witnessed you imitating and racially insulting Chinese people in the most demeaning way. You are not only disingenuous, but you are demonstrably a bigot. Please comment! @TheRock #china #asianhate #racism #JoeRogan https://t.co/Vsu2rMCFFm

Kids, the lesson here is this: If you’re going to denounce someone for something you’ve done yourself, it’s best to hide the evidence. Even better, just don’t get into it in the first place. If you’re an entertainer, entertain. Leave the brainy stuff for others.
