Social Media Users Are Attempting to 'Cancel' Christian Actor Chris Pratt

Only one of the tweets was real, a photo that Pratt posted in October 2012 of a Bank of America pen with the label “Made in China” stamped on it. “I feel like somebody smarter than me could make a joke about this,” Pratt wrote.

It’s unclear what sparked the hashtag, but it didn’t take long for the memes to start flowing, including ribs at Pratt’s Marvel Cinematic Universe co-stars rushing to defend him last October.

Pratt is very open about his Christian faith. He has also made clear that he’s proud to be an American. Naturally, it makes sense he’d skip out on a fundraising event for Joe Biden.

In all likelihood, there’s a good chance Pratt is a Trump guy.

Because of all this, the left is basically trying to “cancel” him.

From The Daily Wire:

Here’s what Downey Jr. wrote on Facebook…
