          Not really. He’s spent millions building a large foster care village facility, he’s donated a fuckton of money to an Armenian genocide charity, and he’s described Trump as a clown who was nevertheless less dangerous than Dick Cheney (during his first term). He’s also shared a story about how he once met Trump and Trump seemed to think he was actually Bruce Wayne

            2008 terminator salvation. bale blows up on the film’s director of photography for getting in the shot.

            “What the fuck are you doing? Are you a professional or not? You’re unbelievable. Number of times you’re strolling and fucking around in the background. I’ve never had a DP behave like this. You don’t fucking understand what it’s like working with actors, that’s what that is.”

            a guardian article from mid 2009 in which bale apologizes. there is some genuineness, and some clear studio PR angling, going on in this answer, i’ll leave it to you to decode, but i’d ask you to pay close attention to the last bit:

            idk about you but my tolerance for rich bullshit starts low and gets lower when workplace and home abuse gets in the mix. “he’s done too much character acting” is also a cop-out

              Wasn’t that story about the the guy constantly fucking with the lights at a really terrible time and not being very communicative?

              Having one bad episode seems pretty fine. If flipping out on an annoying and uncooperative colleague while under a lot of pressure makes you a ghoul, then I’m the lich king.

              I’m honestly at the point were i view “he gets too much into character when acting” as a major red flag when it comes to male celebrities. It always makes me think of abusive shits like Kinski or Depp who always play themselves. Not saying this holds true for all method actors, some clearly have more range than that, and i should also stress that i am referring exclsuively to men here. But it is a type of guy and film tends to reward that one.

      Our stagnation can be deduced from the plethora of punk songs written to criticize politicians in the 70s/80s that are able to swap out whoever they’re referencing with whoever’s currently in office and keep the same complaint. The only progress is the decline.
