Actor Michael Imperioli, best known for his roles in “The Sopranos,” “The White Lotus,” and “Goodfellas,” has taken a stand against the Supreme Court’s recent ruling in favor of a Colorado graphic designer who refused services to same-sex couples.
In an Instagram post on Saturday, Imperioli posted a screenshot of an article with the headline, “Supreme Court protects web designer who won’t do gay wedding websites.” He wrote, “I’ve decided to forbid bigots and homophobes from watching The Sopranos, The White Lotus, Goodfellas or any movie or tv show I’ve been in.”
The 57-year-old actor also wrote in the comments section, “Hate and ignorance is not a legitimate point of view” and added, “America is becoming dumber by the minute.”
Imperioli’s comments come in response to the Supreme Court’s 6-3 conservative majority ruling on Friday, which found that the Colorado graphic designer could legally refuse services to same-sex couples on the grounds of her First Amendment rights.
The actor’s decision to deny bigots and homophobes from watching his work has been met with both praise and criticism. While some have applauded Imperioli for taking a stand against discrimination, others have argued that his decision is a violation of free speech.
Regardless of the opinions, it is clear that Imperioli is passionate about the issue and is not afraid to voice his opinion. His stance on the matter is a reminder that everyone has the right to express their beliefs and that discrimination of any kind should not be tolerated.
