I know that like Mr. Rogers, Bob Ross, and Sam from LoTR are all considered green flags if they are considered role models.
But are there any unique role models you have or have seen others have that you consider a green flag?
Keanu
Do you have any examples? I ask not to be confrontational, but instead because I have read nothing but kind things about him. Thank you!
Appropriate behavior. It’s a Keanu meme because he’s not been accused of a bunch of shit, like way too many high profile actors have.
(Or if this is some other joke, I don’t get it. )
You wanted unique, so, Marilyn Manson.
I always hated his music, the style and those of his listeners…then I heard the dude talk in Bowling for Columbine and he is so eloquent, logical and reasonable and informed on issues where people constantly try to misframe him I immediately gained enormous respect for him (still dislike his music and style) and everything I’ve ever heard him say since has been the same.
Didn’t he abuse the shit out of a bunch of his girlfriends? One of the actors from that show “True Blood” was one of them… I think.
Carl Sagan is like the Mr. Rogers of science.
I’m also a big fan of Richard Feynman–joy and curiosity in equal measure.
Richard Feynman is wonderful. I accidentally watched a 25 minute talk of his once that I started just to learn what his voice sounded like.
If you’ve never watched Fun to Imagine, check it out sometime. It’s just an hour of him sitting in a chair answering questions/sharing his thoughts and I wish there were hours more like it. It’s so great.
Feynman is an amazing person but not a good role model. He will science away your girl, wife be damned.
“That” and “green flag” in this instance are implicitly referring to the act of having a particular person as a role model, not the role model itself.
English is stupid.
Hank Hill, I never met someone who liked him and stood for anything asinine.
