Sean Astin — the actor still probably best known for playing furry-footed hobbit yokel Samwise Gamgee in Lord of the Rings — has berated his fans for showing insufficient zeal on climate change.
“When I mention a Pro-Climate Candidate like @ReneeHoagenson and only 90 of my 330,000 followers “like” comment & retweet, I get pretty ticked off. Do you all know who she is? Is her opponent a Climate-supporter?” the Rudy star tweeted. “Laziness and irresponsibility exists on twitter & that means YOU.”

Astin’s hissy fit drew derision from some of his followers:
If you want clicks, talk about hobbits, bro!

You forgot to remind folks you’re an actor, therefore, know more than everybody else. Sure, it was implied, but some folks may have missed it.

But Astin is deadly serious. As he often indicates on Twitter, he is very, very, very worried about climate change, which he considers the single most important issue of our time.
And he has zero time for anyone who disagrees with him.

According to The Hill, the actor is nurturing political ambitions of his own.
The “Lord of the Rings” actor, who supported Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016, indicated in 2017 he might “seriously consider” running for Congress himself someday.
Thanks Kimberly. If there was a significant swell of people asking me to-I'd seriously consider it. #Congress It would be a dream come true https://t.co/x2sSyQmUH8

With such patience and winning charm – not to mention skills at squeaky, rustic hobbit accents – who could possibly doubt his chances?

How many ” celebrities ” are capable of calculative and deductive cognitive reasoning
in the abstract ?
I ask all of you to start counting
You won’t need more than two hands.
So, if you are a fan of a celebrity you are suppose to support all of his political positions. Sorry, but many Americans think for themselves.
What a total nit-wit he is berating his fans for rejecting this Global Warming/Climate Change poppycock what total dip-wad he is
Poor Sean – another victim of “thespian auto-delusional syndrome”, in which the afflicted believe their own hype. Let’s all work together for a cure.
Believing your own hype is a common problem. During World War II the Japanese issued a lot of propaganda about how good their fighter plane “Zero” was. I was an effect weapon, but due to all of their propaganda they never saw the need to make any improvements. In the mean time the United States was making improvements in our war planes.
