Jon Bernthal Reflects on Interviewing Shia Labeouf

[@XenagarD]

"Being a friend is not about turning your back on somebody when they do something that you find deplorable or disgusting, your job as a friend is to make sure they don't do it again." - Jon Bernthal. Amazing quote.

Jon, I listened to the Shia podcast. I was married to a mentally-emotionally abusive alcoholic for 15 years. I was sexually assaulted as a teen and young adult. Listening to Shia, a man who struggles deeply and has injured others just as deeply, but who also acknowledges who and what he has been and done, takes complete ownership to these injuries, but is trying desperately to be a better man… gave me hope. People can change. People can heal. People can choose better ways. Changing the mindset takes hard work. God is bigger than all of us. And forgiveness is important. I appreciate that you took a risk with Shia. I hope more injures people listen to what he explains. Thank you.

[@mugiikari1641]

I have also been in a few emotionally/physically abusive relationships, one of which was really bad and ended up with them being arrested. I stayed with that person for a while afterwards (generally not the right decision) but I ended up losing all the trust I initially carried for them and diving into a brutal depression that forced me to end it. I am still friends with this person. Why? Because they made an effort to be better and while it wasn’t enough to save the relationship, this is still a human being I care for. People who know this criticize me but they’re just a product of the colorless, grayscale-less world we live in. Everybody can be evil. And why we should definitely call out when someone is doing wrong, we should also permit them the ability to understand what they’ve done wrong and allow them to change. It’s kind of how screaming at a dog and kicking it out of the house isn’t going to train it to not jump on guests. Canceling people isn’t going to address the problem, it just promotes fear and gives people an excuse to witch hunt any person they don’t like. Abuse is obviously not okay. But instead of permanently excommunicating abusers from society, we should be more adamant on rehabilitation so that they improve. Sure, there’s some people who are always going to be problematic. But most people act in ways they have seen demonstrated to them as okay and society should work on conditioning those people to become better. Does Hollywood actually give a shit about abuse or rape? Obviously not. It’s all extra credit performative bullshit.

[@jadengrant6063]

That’s very mature and forgiving of you too find that perspective.

[@DownHillSkateTime]

Respect to you for saying this! Its easy to assign a victim and a perpetrator but what many fail to realize is that both parties are usually in need of some help. So easy to forget that we're all human here and a lot of us are dealing with some pretty serious internal conflicts.

[@jwelch4172]

Yes many times there is abuse both ways. Women get off way too easy. It's damaging everything in western cultures.

[@urusledge]

Many focus on the perceived lack of justice around these types of issues, and while that should definitely be a major concern, I sometimes feel like we should also consider the virtue of mercy as well, and how in many ways it can be forgotten about in these scenarios. Obviously mercy isn't something that should come cheaply or automatically, it is something that should be offered to those willing to open themselves to it if they are truly striving to turn from their wrongful ways. I read something somewhere that went like this: justice and mercy are two parts of one whole. Justice without mercy can become injustice in the same way that mercy without justice can.

[@Chris-i0i0i0]

@Noran Micholas I agree with the idea that both parties are in need of help. We saw that most recently with the Depp and Heard trials. Both parties were guilty of a lot of unkindness and poor behaviour towards each other. I don't get that vibe from Shia's story (but will accept the info we have is very limited). Sometimes there IS a victim and a perpetrator. Perpetrators still need help, but in a very different way. And it's generally true that they only seem interested in help once they are caught/exposed, which isn't true for victims.

An honor to have watched Jon’s podcast with Shia. Shia seemed so tired, aged and haggard. He was just so raw, an open soul, gosh it was powerful, he seemed genuinely appreciative of someone that had experience what he was experiencing and letting him know there were other ways, better ways through the journey and burdens he was carrying. To know that you must own your screw-ups, to learn from those lessons, that Yes there are better choices to make that will allow you to start healing. It seemed that he came to understand and realized that he needed to put in the work for/to recovery. I believe that he came to understand that Failure was no longer an option. Once you bring a child into this world, you no longer live for yourself. G-d has given you/us many precious things utmost - children. Your friendship with Shia is yet another gift. Again - Thank you Jon and Shia. May G-d continue to Bless Both You.

That full interview with Shia as well as Shia’s interview with Bishop Barron are so raw and honest. He owned his mistakes and trying to make things right with the people he hurt. He made no excuses or looking for a typical Hollywood “slap on the wrist” outcome. Shia never tried to make himself the victim and I have mad respect for Shia on that because that’s owning your mistakes.

[@tammiepage6489]

Yeah, I do praise him for that because there’s so many guys that would do what he did and not own up to it. That tells me that you know he knows his mistake. He regrets it he’s really showing remorse. You know that he knows he probably I need to help, and that is refreshing because again that some guys I’ll do that stuff and try to sit there and act like they did nothing wrong. At least he’s only up to what he did. I mean I’ve seen some stories I’m happy people are not giving them a hard time because I’ve seen some celebrities apologize for things they made mistakes for and they still get punished for it and still sit there and bash and I think that’s fucked up. They say apologize I mean I know some slow is apologize and I don’t really mean it I understand that, but my thing is this you need to realize how hard it is to apologize to the world, I’m not perfect. They do the same things as we do they make mistakes. Yeah but it was Larry Owens up to the mistakes and apologize for the Julisa bashing them they shouldn’t have to. You know make it when they make mistakes should have a room in their life for a career.

People who are critical of your interviewing him fall in one of two basic categories IMO: (1) they have never gone thru a fall from grace and had to go thru repentance and redemption (2) they have never taken responsibility for their own mistakes and choose to remain bitter and unforgiving towards others. True self-examination and self-responsibility bring humility and repentance for mistakes made. The journey of being a 'successful' human being is to experience victorious redemption through humility and atonement.

The Shia interview has benefited my life. I've taken away so much from that interview at a time I really needed it. I'm glad y'all did the interview. Dealing with so much devastation in my life I still to this day think about the radish farmers outlook on events & try to use it. I never would have found that point of view if it wasn't for Shia. Always been a fan of his as a human being. He struggled a lot in childhood & it fucked him up as an adult but now I see the aftermath. he showed us the possibility of a healthy change for a troubled soul.

[@edzukation]

This is what people are missing about the word loyal - being loyal means standing by the person during the difficult times without judgment and with love. This has nothing to do with anyone else but rather what you are willing to forgive and work with someone through these difficult times. If you want to help the person change, then you work with those who need help. Someone who is mentally and physically abusive needs help to ensure their behavior ceases to exist.

[@Wulfbaine05]

I agree 95%...only thing i would change is the without judgment...a true loyal friend has to judge you and hold you to a higher standard "yea friends should judge" that judgement must come from those you will listen to and who's opinions matter to you....showing you yea you fucked up but I'm still here standing by your side even though you know I don't agree with your actions. I believe this is part of the problem we have in todays society. The judgment given by those who we actually care about needs to happen..thats how you humble yourself to learn and grow instead of society coddling you and making excuses for you to make you feel justified. Not everything you think or feel is correct and unless someone who's opinions matter to you and shows you the errors of your ways then how are you going to learn and grow into a better person. I could have worded this better but one love and happy new year!!!! Oh also I almost forgot...the person "judging" needs to learn how to judge in a positive way and not in uncaring your no longer my friend your dead to me kinda way.

This guy Jon Bernthal. Probably my favorite actor just feels real always with this cat. Just so refreshing to see an actor that presents himself as he does.

[@jimmiehodges5342]

When I watched this conversation between Jon and Shia, I was in a state that could go either way. I went in a good direction after seeing these guys talk in a real, raw, honest, and compassionate way to each other that it had a therapeutic effect on me and gave clarity to deal with my situation. I can't imagine growing up as a kid in Hollywood on the level Shia did with all the sleaze, corruption, and dishonest hypocrisy that has been so exposed in the past few years. No excuses for behavior but absolute compassion for anybody that's made mistakes and sincerely wants to make real amends for the damaged they caused. We all deserve at least that in my opinion. So, hope and goodwill for Shia finding peace and much respect to Bernthal for his humanity and decency! What a stand-up guy!

I found Shia’s interview to be really powerful. It resonated with me on alot of points, especially him talking about his faith. He’s a good soul who was lost, and I honestly believe he intends on righting his wrongs.

[@siphtinzero]

Jon has a beautiful soul man! Love this guy. Glad he was there for Shia. Doubt any and all of us who commit mistakes and horrifying ones for the most part don’t condemn them whatsoever to begin with but simply, fighting demons internally is all…

[@DefianceOrDishonor]

Dude, a mistake is a one off. Shia isn't making mistakes. He's just Shia. The guy is one of the scummiest people in Hollywood, and that's impressive. Have you not seen the footage of him getting arrested for attacking people at protests and him telling that Black Officer that he's going to hell because he's black? With pure hatred and disgust in his eyes? No amount of Tequila turns you into a bitterly hateful racist. Period. End of story. The guy is an actor, and he acted his heart out on that podcast. Doesn't change the fact that he's an extremely racist wife beater...

[@siphtinzero]

@@DefianceOrDishonor yeah I see where you’re coming from. Shia did have a traumatic childhood and believe he was sexually molested at a young age and was involved very early in the Hollywood space so these kinds of stories tend to happen often with those who were involved into high amounts of fame at an early age. Nonetheless, doesn’t give you an excuse nor a reason to proliferate hate into others so again, I see where you’re coming from. As someone who grew up into a semi traumatic household, seeing my dad be under the influence of drugs and condoning physical violence on my mother by strangling her, I’ve learned to accept and know that these people have deeply rooted demons within them and I doubt they’d want to be there in the first place. My dad is in a good place now but he described those years as hell now that he’s been sober for 3 years now. Peace and acceptance is where it’s at in my opinion per my own experience.

People make mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes may seem unforgivable. But how are we ever going to make process as a human race if we cant forgive and lend a helping hand to those in their darkest of hour. Shia has done some disgusting things, but hes owned them and done everything he can to turn his life around and live for what matters most and do whatever he can to be the best person he can be. He should not be shunned or canceled for the rest of his days, ESPECIALLY when hes actually trying to right the ship. And certainly neither should anyone thats tried to help him along the way. People need to open their hearts and their minds again.

Have just watched the interview and I'll repeat what other woman who have been in abusive relationships have said; I truly found some healing for myself through watching this. I've struggled with the male/female dynamic and trying to understand why there is such a power struggle between men and women. Watching the interview and seeing such honesty and a willingness to change, and the lesson that will teach other young men, is so important. This needs to be shared over and over. Jon has such a good heart and I'm just so grateful to see men who will stand up and say NO, this is not ok and it's time to change. Fooking brilliant. Please don't stop talking to men about this. Be the change. Peace.

Shia LeBouf (probably spelled improperly) is one of the kindest most sincere people I’ve had the privilege of meeting. My son and I were at San Fran airport and got to meet him with no one around and he couldn’t have been any more polite and inviting. Just a genuine guy with a great heart. He could have easily said man I’m eating or I’m trying to read. But he didn’t.
