"I donate to a lot of charities, mainly children's stuff, but nobody knows it. I don't go to the awards show and talk about it when I'm getting my award,"
"So if you do win an award tonight, don't use it as a platform to make a political speech. You're in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. Unless you have really studied stuff and know about a subject fully, who the hell would want to listen to an actor or musician talk about politics?"
"Are we supposed to follow this? If we are, what if they lead you down the wrong road?"
Bill Bob Thornton appeared with Joe Rogan to promote the second season of Landman and expressed displeasure with modern politics. Thornton described himself as a radical moderate, noted private charitable giving, and rejected speaking about philanthropy at awards shows. He praised Ricky Gervais's Golden Globes admonition that entertainers are not positioned to lecture the public on politics. Rogan called American politics a ruse, dismissed both major parties as corporate-owned, and maintained 2024 support for Donald Trump while criticizing policies such as mass deportation. Thornton urged creation of a common-sense party focused on practical solutions.
