Years ago when he abandoned his lesbian daughter.
And now he's disowned his son too.

I guess his money will go to CCP when he died.

It's not a documentary it's just a movie. I don't get the impression that Jackie Chan really cares what people thinks enough to try to rewrite history.

Realistically, he has no choice but to be a CCP shill. He's just too big of a name.
It's still heartbreaking tho.

He's going overboard on it compared to other Chinese celebrities. It's funny because his dream is to be made a member of the CCP, but the party has repeatedly turned it down citing his scandals. I personally think the real reason is that there are videos from back when the Tianamen Massacre occurred where he condemned it. He was also wildly pro-Democracy and outspoken about it before 1997.

Being a CCP shill makes him a bad person. The thing you have to remember about shitty governments is that they target you, your family, everyone you care about. If Jackie Chan were to say, "Yeah, my country's government is a bunch of crap," he might have a nephew thrown in prison for 40 years over a marijuana charge.

Disowning his daughter for being a lesbian? That makes him a shitty person.

Theres bigoted connotations to the stuff with his daughter. So thats obviously bad if true. Though I find it odd shes claiming shes homeless because of her father. I mean shes like 25 right? Sure for all I know the guy is terrible irl, but can she really blame homelessness on him?

I don't believe many of the stuff said about him, a lot of the stuff sounds like tabloid rumors or National Enquiror type of stuff, I think he became distant with his daughter but ultimately made amends and is starting to rebuild a relationship with her:

Income inequality is a thing. If she was estranged while she was young and didn't have a stable home life, she could likely only get low paying jobs which just isn't enough to own your own home. Yay late stage Capitalism.

So yeah. I think it was when he chose the CCP over his own daughter and his homophobia coming to light.

Dude, this is a clip from one of his movies called Ride On. That's not even his IRL daughter.

It's been reposted to Twitter every once in awhile and the blue checkmarks fall for it every time, and the comments overshadow the people pointing out it's not real.

It's okay.

He released a movie in 1996 set in Hong Kong (and partially aired there as well) so he was likely in Hong Kong in 1996 for that. You can just pivot the reference.

OK I had to rewatch the episode and crap there was a picture of Jackie Chan in the game, that wasn't cleared I bet. I was right though about the story being about Bruce Lee. That is who I first thought.

It's okay. Just focus on the part where Jackie got drunk, drove his car into another, and then used his money and connections to bully the other party into accepting that nothing happened.
