Surprising literally no one.
Does for me. Tarantino is quite progressive.
Uh, first of all, he has a really bizarre obsession with the n-word and saying it. He also enabled Harvey Weinstein's behavior for the better part of two decades, and said that Roman Polanski could not have raped a 13 year old girl because the girl "wanted it" and if that was true, then it couldn't have been rape because rape involves violence.
Also, I don't really care if someone's political views are progressive if their personality is garbage and their social views are regressive.
