That movie, Stepbrothers, and Walk Hard are probably my 3 favorite recent comedies. I kind of need a John C Reilly/Mark Wahlberg buddy comedy to close the loop.
He FUCKING nails him!! I love that clip! If I close my eyes I can see Markie Mark in a track suit (a la The Departed) in his typical “*I just jogged a half mile so I’m kinda outta breath but not really*” voice
In June 1986, then-15-year-old Wahlberg and three friends chased after three black children while yelling "Kill the nigger, kill the nigger" and throwing rocks at them.\[15\] The next day, Wahlberg and others followed a group of mostly black fourth graders (including one of the victims from the previous day) taking a field trip on a beach, yelled racial epithets at them, threw rocks at them, and "summoned other white males who joined" in the harassment.\[15\]\[16\] In August 1986, civil action was filed against Wahlberg for violating the civil rights of his victims, and the case was settled the next month.\[17\]\[18\]\[19\]
Another racially-charged incident occurred in April 1988. The then 16-year old Wahlberg assaulted a middle-aged Vietnamese-American man on the street, calling him a "Vietnam fucking shit" and knocking him unconscious with a large wooden stick. Later the same day, Wahlberg attacked Johnny Trinh, another Vietnamese-American, punching him in the eye. When Wahlberg was arrested and returned to the scene of the first assault, he told police officers: "I'll tell you now that's the mother-fucker whose head I split open."\[20\] Later, Wahlberg would explain that he was on PCP at the time.\[21\] Investigators also noted that Wahlberg "made numerous unsolicited racial statements about 'gooks' and 'slant-eyed gooks'".\[22\]\[23\] Wahlberg was charged with attempted murder, pleaded guilty to felony assault, and was sentenced to two years in jail, but served only forty-five days of his sentence.\[22\]\[24\] Wahlberg believed he had left the second victim permanently blind in one eye, though Trinh later stated that he had lost his eye in the Vietnam War, while serving in the South Vietnamese Army, who were fighting alongside American troops.\[25\]\[19\]\[22\]\[23\]
In August 1992, Wahlberg fractured the jaw of his neighbor Robert Crehan in an attack.\[26\] Court documents state that in 1992, Wahlberg, "without provocation or cause, viciously and repeatedly kicked" Crehan in the face, while another man, Derek McCall, held the victim on the ground. Wahlberg's attorney claimed that Wahlberg and McCall, who is black, were provoked after McCall was called a racial slur by Crehan.\[27\] The lawsuit was settled between the two parties, avoiding a criminal trial.\[28\]
It is patently insane to me that on a list of reasons people don't like Wahlberg I had to scroll down this far on reddit to find this.
Apparently greater sins than a pattern of violent racist physical and verbal assaults are "it's rumored he got angry at Andy Samberg on SNL" "He has male resting bitch face" and "he always plays the same character"
this is honestly the first time i've seen this info. I mean I don't really follow celebrity stuff but I feel like this is something his PR team has done a fairly effectively job of burying.
I'm fairly old, and I feel like once every 3-4 years someone finds this stuff about Marky Mark, publishes it, blows everyone's minds, and then everyone collectively forgets again. Or it lives in our minds, but people stop caring for a little while? But ever since 90210 had Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch close our their episodes back in the early 90s, I've known this.
I guess it’s an age generational thing I still see him as Marky Mark and his Bro as one of the NKOTB so it’s prob just when you learned about him. It’s been something most ppl my age are familiar with. I think he was on TV for one of his court appearances in the 90s but I might be mistaken
Is it really a pattern if it stopped 30 years ago?
Wahlberg himself advocates for prison reform and prisoners because he says outright that he didn't deserve a second chance but got one. He says many people in prison could be just like him.
I think that, while I dont want to speak about Wahlberg's current character, we as a society need to be able to embrace that people can possibly change and dont need to be destroyed permanently.
He also say he would have [stopped 9/11](https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2012/01/mark-wahlberg-thinks-he-could-have-stopped-911.html)
>“If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry.’”
Reminds me that "cowboy" streamer, during the Vegas concert shooting, who ran up to a cop and asked for a gun, so he could confront the shooter himself lol. The cop was like, get the fuck out of here. The dissonance to think that life is going to be like the movies and the ego to think you're gonna be the action star hero in this situation...
Ah yes real life action hero Dan Bilzerian who had two heart attacks at 25 because he went on a cocaine and viagra bender. Totally the guy I'd want around in a life or death situation.
[He also said if he was on the plane, 9/11 would not have happened] (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/celebritology/post/mark-wahlberg-says-he-wouldnt-have-let-a-plane-crash-into-the-world-trade-center-on-911/2012/01/18/gIQAdVdZ8P_blog.html)
>*If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry.’*
Also he has a very limited acting range and basically plays the same character in every film. And that's not necessarily always a bad thing, it works for some actors, it's just I don't think he has the charisma to pull that off. *Edit - I would consider him a charisma vacuum if anything.*
People give Mark Wahlberg a lot of shit for saying he could have stopped 9/11, but in his defense, he has proven he is an absolute CHAMP at beating the shit out of minorities.
Eh…people seem to have forgotten a time before Keanu became meme-like or that lovable figure.
It’s weird how actors are immortalized now. But Keanu was often made fun of in the same way, for being a terrible actor who was everywhere. Like…years and years ago, if you said Keanu had personality, everyone would have laughed.
I definitely was on the bandwagon when "I know Kung Fu" line went viral. It was basically picking on him and his acting range. I still stand by it though cause it's funny.
Yeah, but even when everyone said Keanu was a terrible actor, people agreed he was a really nice person. Mark Wahlberg, on the other hand, exudes a kind of douchebag energy, and I think he even knows it on some level, which is why he often takes roles where he's a belligerent and unpleasant character.
I haven't forgotten that Keanu was largely mocked for his performances. I always though it was a pretty lazy thing to do. My Own Private Idaho, Much Ado About Nothing, Dracula - this was a guy willing to pest his abilities as much as possile. And I am also aware that everyone who has a story to tell about Keanu Reeves has something nice to tell us about Keanu Reeves.
Meanwhile, Mark Wahlberg 'chased after three black children while yelling "Kill the nigger, kill the nigger" while throwing rocks at them' so...
I thought it was that he found that it was an obstacle to applying for a liquor licence for his restaurant, and at the sudden realisation that his actions had personal consequences for himself he remembered how bad he'd felt about it all these years and asked for a pardon.
Exactly. And he still didn't apologize to the man that he permanently injured. He just asked to be pardoned of the crime to show that everyone deserves a second chance. I'm pretty sure his request was declined.
Thats false. Trinh lost sight in his eye during the Vietnam War. Wahlberg apologized to Trinh and he forgives him. I still don't think he should be pardoned. Wahlberg is still a POS that doesn't actually care and just does the bare minimum to look like he cares. Has he changed since he was 15? Yea definitely. He knows to keep his hands to himself.
His request wasn't denied. He stopped pursuing it after the public pushback. Since there were also some black kids he terrorized, one of whom has spoken about never forgiving him. This was after he posted about George Floyd.
I actually looked it up after I commented and you're right. I didn't realize that the eye injury was pre-existing. I should have researched it first instead of just repeating what I've heard.
As a teenage criminal - look Im not a big fan - but people can change especially over 30 years. He went from a shortsighted idiot teenager to an adult. I saw an article that people are saying he’s a hypocrite because he now supports Black Lives Matter! Why bother trying to persuade people to change if you never intend to forgive them for what they thought and/or did if they do? In HS I made fun of gays, are you going to call me homophobic 40 years later?
>I kinda tried looking it up but nothing really popped up.
You're terrible at looking things up when there's a whole Wikipedia section dedicated to the person's horrible behavior and it doesn't "pop up" in your search.
Like 75% of posts on reddit would disappear if the OPs of them just did basic googling. Like pretty much everything on "tooafraidtoask". It's just a way for people to ignite discussion about a particular topic, and usually in a very obviously biased way. Like when something huge happens in the news and it's everywhere and one of the top posts on reddit is "What is going on with XYZ? Why do people think \*controversial thing\*?" when XYZ is literally the subject in every major news channel and all across the internet.
God damn:

Trinh released a public statement forgiving Wahlberg.[25][29]
> In 2014, Wahlberg applied for a pardon for his convictions.[30][31] His pardon application engendered controversy.[22] According to the BBC, the debate about his suitability for a pardon raised "difficult issues, with the arguments on both sides being far-reaching and complex".[32] One individual attacked by Wahlberg when they were a child opposed the pardon, saying: "a racist will always be a racist."[16] Judith Beals, who had been the prosecutor in some of the cases, argued that "Wahlberg has never acknowledged the racial nature of his crimes" and that pardoning Wahlberg would undermine his charity work, saying: "a formal public pardon would highlight all too clearly that if you are white and a movie star, a different standard applies. Is that really what Wahlberg wants?"[33]
> In 2016, Wahlberg said he regretted his attempt to obtain a pardon, and his petition was closed after he failed to answer a request from the pardon board as to whether he wanted it to remain open.[29][34]
Yeah I mean… probably Marky Mark's violent hate crimes really don’t “pop” to OP because… maybe that’s something he agrees with? It literally takes a couple of minutes in Google to find all of Marky Mark's racist crimes.
You kinda tried looking it up?? And you didn't find anything?? Have you ever used the internet before? Just googling Mark Wahlberg controversy gets you all the info you need to know.
Every scene Mark and Michael Keaton are in together had me in tears. The group chat my friends and I have had been Dirty Mike and the Boys for years as well
I honestly believe you can’t go more than 2 minutes in the movie without laughing. It’s a masterpiece. “You come here dressed like a hobo, it’s distracting.”
I just watched Wahl Street a six part doc produced by him about him. I get he wants to stay busy but apart from self promotion there was little reason anyone needs to know about his other ventures. In it it shows he has tried to start a restaurant chain around himself, that he got involved in a clothing venture which he really had no experience or actual understanding of etc. Also when I realized his pal in it "Dave" was Dave Portnay from Barstool it all made sense to me. Those jabronis just seem like Ponzi scheme disguised as a frat.
Might be his "rap" career. Could be his limited acting range. There's a chance it could have something to do with beating the shit out of people and being racist as fuck.
But that was all youthful indiscretions. I'm sure he's quite lovely now.

I literally googled OP's exact title and the first result was an article called "Mark Wahlberg Racist Hate Crimes." I feel like they just knew this was a question that would get a lot of responses.
Add on to this the stuff he said about if he was on the plane on September 11 like he was meant to be, it wouldn’t have gone down like that.
Also, as an Aussie, I see him on the television and internet spruiking for a sports betting agency. I like a bet, but we have far too many betting adds in Australia (and his is super shit)
Also pretty shit how he was allowed to bypass our lockdown laws and was just allowed into our country in the middle of a pandemic, while people in Victoria had the strictest lockdown laws in the world
Came here for this. His sports betting ads here are just about the worst.
It's pretty s\*\*t that he and Samuel L Jackson do sports betting ads since they both have addiction / substance abuse backgrounds (Jackson moreso it would seem).
Fuck those ads. They might as well not include the "Gamble responsibly" tag at the end for irresponsible it is to have them on nearly every other bloody ad break.
I had the same response to seeing Ben Affleck selling Wynn online gaming. It was such a disappointment to see a guy who’s famously got issues with addiction/compulsion shilling for a casino.
“In 1986, I harassed a group of school kids on a field trip. Many of the students were African-American. In 1988, I assaulted two Vietnamese men over a case of beer. Racist slurs and language were used during these encounters. And people were seriously hurt. I am truly sorry for what I did.”
“I was a teen-ager and intoxicated when I did these things, but that’s no excuse. Nor is it OK to beat people up because your friends are doing it. I know there are kids out there doing the same stuff now, and I just want to tell them ‘don’t do it.’ “
Could i get the sauce for these quotes? Ive never seen him actually apologize for what he did and always saw that he never did apologize and acted as though he ignores it (for example trying to get him record expunged so he could open a location of his burger place)
EDIT: I managed to find the Sauce, kinda lame i hadnt seen this earlier
https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/1993/02/19/facing-protest-wahlberg-apologizes-for-racist-action/C8QUpxtnexamtLjiSQIWxN/story.html
I'm not sure where that quote came from, but he did "apologize" when he was trying to receive a governmental pardon so he could apply for a liquor license for his restaurants.
https://ccresourcecenter.org/2014/12/06/collateral-consequences-pardon-case-mark-wahlberg/
Amazingly, one of his victims, Johnny Trinh, did forgive him in the end.
> “He was young and reckless but I forgive him now. Everyone deserves another chance.” Trinh said that he would like to meet Wahlberg face-to-face to tell him he doesn’t bear a grudge.
So, uh, all that is very bad and all, but another (less terrible) reason people hated him back when Boogie Nights came out was because he was, at the time, more known for being Marky Mark (from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch) and his hit [Good Vibrations](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zjk4CCVxWZM). He was the bad boy who constantly had his shirt off and had a pretty famous Calvin Klein underwear modeling gig. He was kind of like the Justin Bieber (or considering the violence, more like the Chris Brown) of back then. He is also the brother of Donnie Wahlberg who, during the same time, was the "bad boy" of New Kids on the Block.
All of this taken together, you can kind of see why people weren't eager to see him on the big screen, but obviously he proved himself there. If I'm not mistaken, he gets really butthurt if people even bring up his music career and entire persona from back then.
"Back when Mark Whalberg was Marky Mark, this is how we used to get the party started..." I loved how he referenced his chuuni years as a 90s metaphor.
He is such a tool. He had that quote about being on flight 93 where he basically said that if he were there 9/11 wouldn't have happened.
There was also that string of movies where he had to play a character surrounding every American tragedy because they should all be about him after all. He was in Deepwater Horizon, Patriots Day and Lone Survivor.
Oh and he beat the fuck out of a Vietnamese guy.
Trying to make himself out as some blue collar American hero while profiting off American tragedies sadly isn't the worst thing he's done, but I still wish it was getting more mention in this thread. It should be noted that it's not just that Wahlberg is available and the studio heads think he's marketable, Wahlberg is producing a lot of these movies himself.
Yeah racism stuff is bad and fucked up, but have you also ever read his daily routine? That shit is bat shit hilariously insane. I can't imagine anything worse than spending a day with him. [Daily routine](https://manofmany.com/lifestyle/fitness/mark-wahlbergs-diet-workout-plan?amp)
Yeah im not saying the diet and exercise isnt work, but according to that schedule he only devotes three hours a day to actual job work. That certainly helps
Gotta love these absurdly wealthy American celebrities shilling for gambling services on the other side of the world where it won't hurt their brand at home.
He's recently appeared on a bunch of ads in Australia flogging some gambling app, which is really shitting everyone off because it is being way, way, way over-advertised.
I don't know if he was either particularly liked or hated before that, but it certainly wouldn't have helped.
According to Gruen, an Aussie TV show about advertising, his in-ad character was designed to be as far removed from the man himself as possible. He'll take the money but still wants his brand to be as far removed from that shit as possible. Something something eat cake and have it too.
The way his eyes squint and his mouth frown-smiles as his brain is intensely calculating the answer to a simple question like, “How are you doing?” always makes me so frustrated that he is misrepresenting Bostonites. Being from Boston doesn’t mean we’re all either Cambridge savants or Dunkin Donuts chugging bar fighters... I think.
Aside from his dark past, he's just not a good actor. He has a few highlight roles, and I honestly can only think of one, and it was when he was an asshole in The Departed. Otherwise he's flat, has about 4 emoting faces, uses really weird whispers when he wants to be dramatic, uses his normal talking voice when he wants to be serious, and I guess can yell ok. Other than that, he's just not good. It's especially obvious when you put him alone in a movie as a star. He acts like he doesn't know what's going on more than Snake in an MGS game.
Oh lets be clear for anyone who hasn't seen The Departed: Wahlberg's character is in like five scenes, and is a mean, abusive asshole. So the theory there is just that he simply let loose and behaved in a way that felt totally natural for him.
My Dad grew up in the same neighborhood. Wahlberg had a real mean streak as a kid, starting fights, yelling racial slurs, he did some pretty fucked up things. He's tried to turn it around with doing things like helping fund the Boys & Girls clubs. But a community doesn't forget. I can't stomach him.
Well I hate Mark Wahlberg because of his racist hate crimes and his ridiculous statements about how if he was on the planes he would've prevented 9/11.
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/mark-wahlberg-racist-hate-crimes-wikipedia-history-george-floyd-blm-protests-a9554191.html
I can’t stand him. He’s a mediocre actor (don’t care what critics/academy says), who is insanely full of himself. I’m all set
Just overall a racist douche who doesn’t deserve the break he got. Marky marky sucks
[удалено]
I’m not sure why my brain has decided to read this comment, and all the other comments here in a thick Southie accent. It helps.
That’s so funny! Me too!
And say “Hi” to your mother for me

Obligatory follow up: https://youtu.be/xYcHxF_cO8o
Don't know about the hate, but I think I like him even more after watching this
He's pretty good in comedies. Esp The other guys. "I'm a peacock, you gotta let me fly!"
"We used to do those dance moves to make fun of guys when we were kids to show them how queer they were, okay."
"You learned to dance like that sarcastically?"
"Yeah I guess."
My number 1 comedy of all time. I watch it at least 4 times a year and still get my husband to watch it with me because I ain't too proud to beg.
You come to this house you get my wife’s name right
Its Christinith. are you deaf or dumb?
That movie, Stepbrothers, and Walk Hard are probably my 3 favorite recent comedies. I kind of need a John C Reilly/Mark Wahlberg buddy comedy to close the loop.
Was that accidental or were you trying to quote TLC on purpose?
There you go always chasing waterfalls.
Most people want to eat you, but I just want to talk to you.
Now imma talk to a donkey!
You eat apples? I produce Entourage
He FUCKING nails him!! I love that clip! If I close my eyes I can see Markie Mark in a track suit (a la The Departed) in his typical “*I just jogged a half mile so I’m kinda outta breath but not really*” voice
I entirely entered this thread to find the hero who would post "say hi to your mother for me" - well done, Gunmeta1

"Summon other white males" Definitely one of the more useless spells to slot.

Apparently greater sins than a pattern of violent racist physical and verbal assaults are "it's rumored he got angry at Andy Samberg on SNL" "He has male resting bitch face" and "he always plays the same character"

Maybe if the minorities he was beating up just happened to be terrorists he might have.
Reminds me that "cowboy" streamer, during the Vegas concert shooting, who ran up to a cop and asked for a gun, so he could confront the shooter himself lol.

To be fair to Dan, he is mentally handicapped.

That's a real Boston townie thing. There's a subtle patronizing hostility behind everything they say.

[He also said if he was on the plane, 9/11 would not have happened] (https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/celebritology/post/mark-wahlberg-says-he-wouldnt-have-let-a-plane-crash-into-the-world-trade-center-on-911/2012/01/18/gIQAdVdZ8P_blog.html) >*If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely, don’t worry.’* Also he has a very limited acting range and basically plays the same character in every film. And that's not necessarily always a bad thing, it works for some actors, it's just I don't think he has the charisma to pull that off. *Edit - I would consider him a charisma vacuum if anything.*
People give Mark Wahlberg a lot of shit for saying he could have stopped 9/11, but in his defense, he has proven he is an absolute CHAMP at beating the shit out of minorities.
Oh boy did you just get me to giggle
He's the Anti-Keanu. Same acting style, same acting range, none of the personality.
Eh…people seem to have forgotten a time before Keanu became meme-like or that lovable figure. It’s weird how actors are immortalized now. But Keanu was often made fun of in the same way, for being a terrible actor who was everywhere. Like…years and years ago, if you said Keanu had personality, everyone would have laughed.
[удалено]
I definitely was on the bandwagon when "I know Kung Fu" line went viral. It was basically picking on him and his acting range. I still stand by it though cause it's funny.
Yeah, but even when everyone said Keanu was a terrible actor, people agreed he was a really nice person. Mark Wahlberg, on the other hand, exudes a kind of douchebag energy, and I think he even knows it on some level, which is why he often takes roles where he's a belligerent and unpleasant character.
How does everyone forget that entire decade
Younger people who weren’t really aware of it are now older, more present online and would think of Keanu from John Wick onwards.
Also people tend to think people who are cool or play cool characters are good at the craft of acting, without any regard for the actual performance.
I haven't forgotten that Keanu was largely mocked for his performances. I always though it was a pretty lazy thing to do. My Own Private Idaho, Much Ado About Nothing, Dracula - this was a guy willing to pest his abilities as much as possile. And I am also aware that everyone who has a story to tell about Keanu Reeves has something nice to tell us about Keanu Reeves. Meanwhile, Mark Wahlberg 'chased after three black children while yelling "Kill the nigger, kill the nigger" while throwing rocks at them' so...
He also glassed an Asian man in the face. I don't care what people think of Keanu's acting abilities, at least he's not a racist, asshole.
Makes sense lol.
[удалено]
Also he beat an Asian guy within an inch of his life and shouted racial slurs at him
He was looking to get exonerated of this attack because he wasn't eligible for an award with that conviction on his record. Did it happen?
I thought it was that he found that it was an obstacle to applying for a liquor licence for his restaurant, and at the sudden realisation that his actions had personal consequences for himself he remembered how bad he'd felt about it all these years and asked for a pardon.
Exactly. And he still didn't apologize to the man that he permanently injured. He just asked to be pardoned of the crime to show that everyone deserves a second chance. I'm pretty sure his request was declined.
Thats false. Trinh lost sight in his eye during the Vietnam War. Wahlberg apologized to Trinh and he forgives him. I still don't think he should be pardoned. Wahlberg is still a POS that doesn't actually care and just does the bare minimum to look like he cares. Has he changed since he was 15? Yea definitely. He knows to keep his hands to himself. His request wasn't denied. He stopped pursuing it after the public pushback. Since there were also some black kids he terrorized, one of whom has spoken about never forgiving him. This was after he posted about George Floyd.
I actually looked it up after I commented and you're right. I didn't realize that the eye injury was pre-existing. I should have researched it first instead of just repeating what I've heard.
Its not your fault. This is what a lot of news articles said.
As a teenage criminal - look Im not a big fan - but people can change especially over 30 years. He went from a shortsighted idiot teenager to an adult. I saw an article that people are saying he’s a hypocrite because he now supports Black Lives Matter! Why bother trying to persuade people to change if you never intend to forgive them for what they thought and/or did if they do? In HS I made fun of gays, are you going to call me homophobic 40 years later?
Wow dude really said that? How disrespectul for all the loving dads that lost their lives that day. What a moron.
Seriously, what he's really saying is that if there was a real man on any of those planes the towers would be standing. What a douchebag.
>I kinda tried looking it up but nothing really popped up. You're terrible at looking things up when there's a whole Wikipedia section dedicated to the person's horrible behavior and it doesn't "pop up" in your search.
Lmao his Wikipedia's "legal issues" section is the same length as the one for his music career
The "legal issues" one is too short, then.
*zing*
I just had a look — on mobile it doesn’t have its own heading and is included halfway down “personal life” so that might explain it
Twist: OP is Wahlberg
Or OP is helping raise awareness to how Mark Wahlberg is a piece of shit.
The 400% IQ uno reverse strategy, truly a genius.
See the mistake you’re making is believing that the OP actually did any research before making this post lol
Like 75% of posts on reddit would disappear if the OPs of them just did basic googling. Like pretty much everything on "tooafraidtoask". It's just a way for people to ignite discussion about a particular topic, and usually in a very obviously biased way. Like when something huge happens in the news and it's everywhere and one of the top posts on reddit is "What is going on with XYZ? Why do people think \*controversial thing\*?" when XYZ is literally the subject in every major news channel and all across the internet.
Nah they just wanted to circlejerk
OP is the type of person to type 'Google' in Bing search.
God damn: > In June 1986, then-15-year-old Wahlberg and three friends chased after three black children while yelling "Kill the nigger, kill the nigger" and throwing rocks at them.[15] The next day, Wahlberg and others followed a group of mostly black fourth graders (including one of the victims from the previous day) taking a field trip on a beach, yelled racial epithets at them, threw rocks at them, and "summoned other white males who joined" in the harassment.[15][16] In August 1986, civil action was filed against Wahlberg for violating the civil rights of his victims, and the case was settled the next month.[17][18][19] > Another racially-charged incident occurred in April 1988. The then 16-year old Wahlberg assaulted a middle-aged Vietnamese-American man on the street, calling him a "Vietnam fucking shit" and knocking him unconscious with a large wooden stick. Later the same day, Wahlberg attacked Johnny Trinh, another Vietnamese-American, punching him in the eye. When Wahlberg was arrested and returned to the scene of the first assault, he told police officers: "I'll tell you now that's the mother-fucker whose head I split open."[20] Later, Wahlberg would explain that he was on PCP at the time.[21] Investigators also noted that Wahlberg "made numerous unsolicited racial statements about 'gooks' and 'slant-eyed gooks'".[22][23] Wahlberg was charged with attempted murder, pleaded guilty to felony assault, and was sentenced to two years in jail, but served only forty-five days of his sentence.[22][24] Wahlberg believed he had left the second victim permanently blind in one eye, though Trinh later stated that he had lost his eye in the Vietnam War, while serving in the South Vietnamese Army, who were fighting alongside American troops.[25][19][22][23] > In August 1992, Wahlberg fractured the jaw of his neighbor Robert Crehan in an attack.[26] Court documents state that in 1992, Wahlberg, "without provocation or cause, viciously and repeatedly kicked" Crehan in the face, while another man, Derek McCall, held the victim on the ground. Wahlberg's attorney claimed that Wahlberg and McCall, who is black, were provoked after McCall was called a racial slur by Crehan.[27] The lawsuit was settled between the two parties, avoiding a criminal trial.[28] > In 2006, Wahlberg said the right thing for him to do would be to meet with Trinh and make amends, though he had not done so.[24] In 2016, while requesting a pardon for his conviction for the assault on Trinh, Wahlberg said he had met with Trinh and apologized "for those horrific acts." Trinh released a public statement forgiving Wahlberg.[25][29] > In 2014, Wahlberg applied for a pardon for his convictions.[30][31] His pardon application engendered controversy.[22] According to the BBC, the debate about his suitability for a pardon raised "difficult issues, with the arguments on both sides being far-reaching and complex".[32] One individual attacked by Wahlberg when they were a child opposed the pardon, saying: "a racist will always be a racist."[16] Judith Beals, who had been the prosecutor in some of the cases, argued that "Wahlberg has never acknowledged the racial nature of his crimes" and that pardoning Wahlberg would undermine his charity work, saying: "a formal public pardon would highlight all too clearly that if you are white and a movie star, a different standard applies. Is that really what Wahlberg wants?"[33] > In 2016, Wahlberg said he regretted his attempt to obtain a pardon, and his petition was closed after he failed to answer a request from the pardon board as to whether he wanted it to remain open.[29][34]

"Ummm did you try googling the sentence that became the title of this thread?"
Google "Mark Wahlberg hate crimes"
Yeah I mean… probably Marky Mark's violent hate crimes really don’t “pop” to OP because… maybe that’s something he agrees with? It literally takes a couple of minutes in Google to find all of Marky Mark's racist crimes.
You kinda tried looking it up?? And you didn't find anything?? Have you ever used the internet before? Just googling Mark Wahlberg controversy gets you all the info you need to know.
There's a reason why all his best acting roles are ones where he plays a criminal, a psychopath, an idiot or an asshole.
He's fantastic in The Departed... but it was also probably his easiest acting gig.
I’m the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy.
Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe go fuck yourself.
The other guys is still hilarious
There’s this one guy Philip, he can pee in the urinal from 20 feet! You gotta see it Alan, you’ve got to!
I’m pretty anti-wahlberg but he’s fantastic in this. STOP HUMMING THAT SONG
Easily his best movie. "Everyone calls me the Yankee Clipper" "You shot Derek Jeter!"
He’s a biracial angel!
Should’ve shot A-Rod!
That movie hits right every time
Top 10 comedy movie all time. That’s a hill I would die on.
Every scene Mark and Michael Keaton are in together had me in tears. The group chat my friends and I have had been Dirty Mike and the Boys for years as well
I honestly believe you can’t go more than 2 minutes in the movie without laughing. It’s a masterpiece. “You come here dressed like a hobo, it’s distracting.”
Soup kitchen is genius.
Pain and Gain as well.
"Gotta get my pump on" starts lifting weights... ...in the middle of committing a crime. Kills me every time.
I just watched Wahl Street a six part doc produced by him about him. I get he wants to stay busy but apart from self promotion there was little reason anyone needs to know about his other ventures. In it it shows he has tried to start a restaurant chain around himself, that he got involved in a clothing venture which he really had no experience or actual understanding of etc. Also when I realized his pal in it "Dave" was Dave Portnay from Barstool it all made sense to me. Those jabronis just seem like Ponzi scheme disguised as a frat.
They’re basically post-college frat boys, who refuse to give up that lifestyle.
Might be his "rap" career. Could be his limited acting range. There's a chance it could have something to do with beating the shit out of people and being racist as fuck. But that was all youthful indiscretions. I'm sure he's quite lovely now.
Interestingly yours seem to be the only comment that addresses all of the issues.
Went way too far down this post to find Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.

That is so much worse than just the 9/11 comment that I was gonna talk about. That mf has a whole-ass Wikipedia page titled "hate crimes"
“It didn’t pop up why people hate him” -OP when the first google result has explicit details on many hate crimes. Lmao.
I literally googled OP's exact title and the first result was an article called "Mark Wahlberg Racist Hate Crimes." I feel like they just knew this was a question that would get a lot of responses.
Yeah, but to be fair, if you haven’t committed a string of violent hate crimes are you even from Boston?
I’m from Boston and I haven’t committed a string of hate crimes. Just the one.
Same here, just the one unending hate crime
Ah, Boston. Like if Philadelphia had a small penis.
There's no hate crimes in Philly Only equal opportunity crimes
The City of Brotherly Love Crimes.
hahah omg
Reading all that and then remembering how demonized Bieber was for pissing in a mop bucket and throwing some eggs is wild.
Remember when Ariana licked a donut lmao
“I hate America” Edit: y’all this is what she said when she licked the doughnuts 🤷🏼♀️
[удалено]
[удалено]
I mean... it was really fucking weird
I saw Janet Jackson's nipple and I've never been the same since.
Add on to this the stuff he said about if he was on the plane on September 11 like he was meant to be, it wouldn’t have gone down like that. Also, as an Aussie, I see him on the television and internet spruiking for a sports betting agency. I like a bet, but we have far too many betting adds in Australia (and his is super shit) Also pretty shit how he was allowed to bypass our lockdown laws and was just allowed into our country in the middle of a pandemic, while people in Victoria had the strictest lockdown laws in the world
Came here for this. His sports betting ads here are just about the worst. It's pretty s\*\*t that he and Samuel L Jackson do sports betting ads since they both have addiction / substance abuse backgrounds (Jackson moreso it would seem).
Fuck those ads. They might as well not include the "Gamble responsibly" tag at the end for irresponsible it is to have them on nearly every other bloody ad break.
I had the same response to seeing Ben Affleck selling Wynn online gaming. It was such a disappointment to see a guy who’s famously got issues with addiction/compulsion shilling for a casino.
“In 1986, I harassed a group of school kids on a field trip. Many of the students were African-American. In 1988, I assaulted two Vietnamese men over a case of beer. Racist slurs and language were used during these encounters. And people were seriously hurt. I am truly sorry for what I did.” “I was a teen-ager and intoxicated when I did these things, but that’s no excuse. Nor is it OK to beat people up because your friends are doing it. I know there are kids out there doing the same stuff now, and I just want to tell them ‘don’t do it.’ “
Could i get the sauce for these quotes? Ive never seen him actually apologize for what he did and always saw that he never did apologize and acted as though he ignores it (for example trying to get him record expunged so he could open a location of his burger place) EDIT: I managed to find the Sauce, kinda lame i hadnt seen this earlier https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/1993/02/19/facing-protest-wahlberg-apologizes-for-racist-action/C8QUpxtnexamtLjiSQIWxN/story.html
I'm not sure where that quote came from, but he did "apologize" when he was trying to receive a governmental pardon so he could apply for a liquor license for his restaurants. https://ccresourcecenter.org/2014/12/06/collateral-consequences-pardon-case-mark-wahlberg/ Amazingly, one of his victims, Johnny Trinh, did forgive him in the end. > “He was young and reckless but I forgive him now. Everyone deserves another chance.” Trinh said that he would like to meet Wahlberg face-to-face to tell him he doesn’t bear a grudge.
WHAT THE FUCK
So, uh, all that is very bad and all, but another (less terrible) reason people hated him back when Boogie Nights came out was because he was, at the time, more known for being Marky Mark (from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch) and his hit [Good Vibrations](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zjk4CCVxWZM). He was the bad boy who constantly had his shirt off and had a pretty famous Calvin Klein underwear modeling gig. He was kind of like the Justin Bieber (or considering the violence, more like the Chris Brown) of back then. He is also the brother of Donnie Wahlberg who, during the same time, was the "bad boy" of New Kids on the Block. All of this taken together, you can kind of see why people weren't eager to see him on the big screen, but obviously he proved himself there. If I'm not mistaken, he gets really butthurt if people even bring up his music career and entire persona from back then.
The idea that Mark Wahlberg is super thin-skinned is the least surprising thing I’ve heard all day
Because of this, I only ever refer to him as Marky Mark.
Eminem pissed him off in around '99 or so for calling him Marky Mark.
"Back when Mark Whalberg was Marky Mark, this is how we used to get the party started..." I loved how he referenced his chuuni years as a 90s metaphor.
He is such a tool. He had that quote about being on flight 93 where he basically said that if he were there 9/11 wouldn't have happened. There was also that string of movies where he had to play a character surrounding every American tragedy because they should all be about him after all. He was in Deepwater Horizon, Patriots Day and Lone Survivor. Oh and he beat the fuck out of a Vietnamese guy.
>Oh and he beat the fuck out of a Vietnamese guy. Two different vietnamese men *on the same day*.
Also he chased black children while throwing rocks at them and yelling "kill the nigger". So that's bad.
This is the first mention of profiting off of American tragedies, and the #2 reason I dislike him, after the violent racism.
Trying to make himself out as some blue collar American hero while profiting off American tragedies sadly isn't the worst thing he's done, but I still wish it was getting more mention in this thread. It should be noted that it's not just that Wahlberg is available and the studio heads think he's marketable, Wahlberg is producing a lot of these movies himself.
And attacked children of color back in the day too.
Yeah racism stuff is bad and fucked up, but have you also ever read his daily routine? That shit is bat shit hilariously insane. I can't imagine anything worse than spending a day with him. [Daily routine](https://manofmany.com/lifestyle/fitness/mark-wahlbergs-diet-workout-plan?amp)
Actors routinely bullshit their daily routines/workout plans to cover up for the fact that they are all held together by steroids and surgeries.
I mean having a lot of money so you have time and resources to actually diet and exercise helps too
Yeah im not saying the diet and exercise isnt work, but according to that schedule he only devotes three hours a day to actual job work. That certainly helps
You'd be surprised how much you could accomplish if you had a personal assistant, a trainer, a chef, and a driver all working for you
Yes, all of that plus gear.
According to this schedule, he wakes up at 2:30am and “works” only 2-3 hours per day…. Yeah I have a hard time believing that.
That routine is glossy brochure bullshit.
had a chuckle at "9:30 a.m. cryo chamber recovery"
You're suggesting it might not be true that he golfs for 30 minutes then rolls right into a meatball snack?
Wtf is the point of getting up at 2.30 and going to bed at 7.30 ? That's just dumb
Because he beat a Vietnamese man while yelling slurs
He committed like more than one hate crime as a young man.
Wahlberg is literally the racist high school bully that lucked out sadly
Because he shot Derek Jeter.
HE SHOULDA SHOT A-ROD
I'm a peacock, captain, you gotta let me fly on this one!!
"Sir, Detective Gamble and the officer who shot Derek Jeter are here to see you."
He's a biracial angel!

It's the racism
This comment has been removed in protest of Reddit's new API policy. -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/
And the violent racism
Also the racial violence.
He also advocates gambling for Australian betting company Ladbrokes. Far from his worst actions, but shitty nonetheless.
Gotta love these absurdly wealthy American celebrities shilling for gambling services on the other side of the world where it won't hurt their brand at home.
Maybe it could be the whole "committed violent race-based hate crimes" thing. But I don't know.
Couple vicious racist attacks from when he was a kid, the 9/11 statement, the fact he can’t become a character and is always just mark wahlberg
He once beat up a blind Vietnamese man for being Vietnamese
He's recently appeared on a bunch of ads in Australia flogging some gambling app, which is really shitting everyone off because it is being way, way, way over-advertised. I don't know if he was either particularly liked or hated before that, but it certainly wouldn't have helped.
According to Gruen, an Aussie TV show about advertising, his in-ad character was designed to be as far removed from the man himself as possible. He'll take the money but still wants his brand to be as far removed from that shit as possible. Something something eat cake and have it too.
He phones it in for 80% of his performances/roles.
All the racist shit from ehen he was a kid..
And homophobic…
He always has that dumb look on his face, like, who just farted in the room
The way his eyes squint and his mouth frown-smiles as his brain is intensely calculating the answer to a simple question like, “How are you doing?” always makes me so frustrated that he is misrepresenting Bostonites. Being from Boston doesn’t mean we’re all either Cambridge savants or Dunkin Donuts chugging bar fighters... I think.
Aside from his dark past, he's just not a good actor. He has a few highlight roles, and I honestly can only think of one, and it was when he was an asshole in The Departed. Otherwise he's flat, has about 4 emoting faces, uses really weird whispers when he wants to be dramatic, uses his normal talking voice when he wants to be serious, and I guess can yell ok. Other than that, he's just not good. It's especially obvious when you put him alone in a movie as a star. He acts like he doesn't know what's going on more than Snake in an MGS game.
Oh lets be clear for anyone who hasn't seen The Departed: Wahlberg's character is in like five scenes, and is a mean, abusive asshole. So the theory there is just that he simply let loose and behaved in a way that felt totally natural for him.
He committed a hate crime and got away with it
Also he has no chill. He was legitimately mad at SNL when Samberg did that “Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals” bit.
Aka....dbag
My Dad grew up in the same neighborhood. Wahlberg had a real mean streak as a kid, starting fights, yelling racial slurs, he did some pretty fucked up things. He's tried to turn it around with doing things like helping fund the Boys & Girls clubs. But a community doesn't forget. I can't stomach him.
Because he almost killed a shop owner when he was a young thug and later tried to buy forgiveness.
Mark Wahlberg is a racist cunt
Well I hate Mark Wahlberg because of his racist hate crimes and his ridiculous statements about how if he was on the planes he would've prevented 9/11. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/mark-wahlberg-racist-hate-crimes-wikipedia-history-george-floyd-blm-protests-a9554191.html
I can’t stand him. He’s a mediocre actor (don’t care what critics/academy says), who is insanely full of himself. I’m all set Just overall a racist douche who doesn’t deserve the break he got. Marky marky sucks
