Michael Imperioli clarified previous statements in which the 'White Lotus' actor barred “bigots and homophobes” from watching his work following the Supreme Court’s ruling that allows businesses to discriminate against LGBTQ Americans
In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Imperioli called his previous statement “a satirical and symbolic take on where blatantly discriminatory Supreme Court decisions are taking us as a nation: into utter division and possibly far worse.”
“I believe in religious freedom, freedom of speech and the right for individuals to pursue happiness. I also believe in the separation of church and state as stated in the First Amendment,” he wrote. “I believe that all people regardless of race, religion, color, creed, gender or sexuality are entitled to freedom, equality, rights and protection under the laws of our nation. And i vehemently oppose hate, prejudice and bigotry and always have.
Imperioli first made his comments on Sunday following a 6-3 ruling in which the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Colorado web designer who argued that she has the right under the First Amendment to refuse to create wedding websites for gay people. In response to the ruling, Imperioli 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. Thank you Supreme Court for allowing me to discriminate and exclude those who I don’t agree with and am opposed to. USA! USA!” in college admissions.
“Hate and ignorance is not a legitimate point of view,” Imperioli wrote in the comments of the Instagram post, which showed a photo of the Christian web designer and the headline ‘Supreme Court protects web designer who won’t do gay wedding website.’ “America is becoming dumber by the minute.”
