Watch Movie -> Studio gets Money -> Tom Cruise gets Money -> Tom Cruise donates Scientology Money
I understand why they wouldn’t spend money on it, not watching it entirely is then just a more extreme form of this where you also don’t contribute to public interest in the movie
I don’t even find him to be a good actor, too generic and cookie cutter. Not my cup of tea. I watch movie es to see different characters, not him doing the same thing. He WAS good, but all his more recent stuff is just the same role with a different name.
Whilst all religions have bad actors, Scientology is a masterclass of bad actors. A bad Christian, Jew, Bhuddist etc., is clearly an outlier and doesn’t represent a faithfull. Scientolgoy charges fee’s to be a ranked member and has BS tech devices. As a whole, Scientology has bad eggs baked in across the board

If any movie has that Scientology nutcase in them, I won’t watch it
Why not? He might be an asshole, but he’s a damn good actor.
Prpbably the chain of reasoning OP follows:

If you watch a pirated movie, he does not earn a dime off you.
This is one of those really rare cases where you shouldn’t seed to 1:1.
Same if you don’t watch a pirated movie tho 🤷♂️
And followers of other world religions aren’t nutcases? Your boycott list must be wrapped around the block.
Does it really bother you that I think he’s a terrible actor and used religion as another reasoning…
My boycott list is huge though…yeah. Walmart’s even on it
