      1. Many people who have followed my career know when I started, I viewed myself as a provocateur, making movies and telling jokes that were outrageous and taboo. As I have discussed publicly many times, as I’ve developed as a person, so has my work and my humor.

      2. It’s not to say I’m better, but I am very, very different than I was a few years ago; today I try to root my work in love and connection and less in anger. My days saying something just because it’s shocking and trying to get a reaction are over.

      3. In the past, I have apologized for humor of mine that hurt people. I truly felt sorry and meant every word of my apologies.

      4. For the record, when I made these shocking jokes, I wasn’t living them out. I know this is a weird statement to make, and seems obvious, but, still, here I am, saying it.

      5. Anyway, that’s the completely honest truth: I used to make a lot of offensive jokes. I don’t anymore. I don’t blame my past self for this, but I like myself more and feel like a more full human being and creator today. Love you to you all.

          As humans, we are all capable of evil. You made bad choices in your attempts to be provocative, but as a Christian I am able to forgive you because I myself have been forgiven. I hope the people showing such hatred towards you are never in a place where they need forgiveness.

          I’ve been praying for you, that you’ll feel peace and forgiveness both from those around you, and from Jesus who loved and died for even for our very worst sins. For what it’s worth, I’ve been so impressed by your story of choosing love and friendship through creating GOTG.

          Words are words, and nothing more. I believe Disney overreacted and treated you with harshness you did not deserve. I am completely on your side in this matter, and wait with bated breath for @DisneyStudios @RobertIger and @MarvelStudios to announce your return. #Rehirejamesgunn

          Its beyond jokes. The fact your brain is wired to say such things of pedophilia & include yourself in the act is sick in nature. Normal ppl dont make such jokes about rape, molestation, & pedophilia because the soul & mind knows how wrong it is Your mind is sick, not comedic.

          Some of the tweets I read are funny. There was a punch line etc. But over 10k tweets and a blog deleted which covered pedophilia and molestation is an obsession. And, some of them downright had no punchline. Lke, him just tweeting he just masturbated to a movie or a child.

          Not factual. The few jokes you mentioned, that’s it. The blog was where he put everything regarding his life/film career. No “pedophilia”. w/out seeing the ones that “had no punchline”, I’d guess they’re the fake retweets. The joke is that it looks like statements by someone else

          He isn’t though is he? So this is just misleading & dangerous to call people this if they aren’t. He made some misguided comments once leave him alone & bother real people who actually are not innocent people who say the wrong thing.

          You're right, he's not. If you've watched any Troma films then you would know that it was almost a challenge to find the worst things to say and joke about. No limits. People just want to be outraged over something and this manufactured crisis was just the thing.

          Well, I Hope you're correct about that but it seems people pick and choose who that applies too if this guy never made a Marvel movie, I am 100 percent guarantee you'd all be shitting on him, the double standard is mind-boggling. the selective outrage is pathetic.

          I agree to an extent. When he made these jokes a decade ago people weren't anywhere near as sensitive as they are now. Shock comedy and gross out humor was also more prevalent. Should we now dig up the old dirty and lewd jokes of every comedian in order to crucify them today?

          It's brutally unfair to hold onto the jokes of decades past, take them out of context, and then use them as ammunition for the modern virtue-signalling outrage crowd.
