He may be a talented drummer, but goddamn does System of a Down\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metalsucks.net\/tag\/john-dolmayan\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">John Dolmayan<\/a> say some dumbass shit sometimes. I\u2019m not gonna get into all of it here\u2014you can very, very easily look it up for yourself\u2014but he\u2019s basically like a MAGA puppet that\u2019s for whatever reason allowed to walk around on his own. What\u2019s funny about the situation at hand though is he thinks South African actress Charlize Theron is the one who said some dumbass shit when in reality, what was said wasn\u2019t dumb, and Theron wasn\u2019t even the one who said it in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>Dolmayan took to his Instagram a couple days ago to react to a screenshot that claimed Theron said: \u201cWhat drives me is this: my children are all queer. My Eldest child is non-binary. My son is gay. My youngest child is fluid.\u201d Sweet words, whether they came from Theron or not, right? <\/p>\n<p>Well, Dolmayan decided to take his giant, kick drum blasting foot and shove it up his own ass, because he posted the screenshot to his stories along with the caption: <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis woman should be in an asylum or jail. These children are being mentally abused, statistically impossible!\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the thing though\u2014while Theron does openly advocate and support trans rights, and she has two adopted children, one of whom is transgender, this quote is misattributed to her. She never said it!<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the words actually came from another actress, Academy Award-winning Marcia Gay Harden. According to People, Harden said the following back in 2023:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat drives me is \u2014 my children are all queer. My eldest child is non-binary. My son is gay. My youngest is fluid. And you know, they are my kids and they teach me every day.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>Whether Charlize said it, or Marcia, the point is it\u2019s not hard to support your children for who they are. Like, it\u2019s really, really not. Maybe John didn\u2019t feel nearly enough of that love growing up and that\u2019s why he\u2019s out here in these streets acting this way now? Something to think about, but put the phone down, John. Put it down, in another room, and go find some compassion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"510\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/johndolmayanig-510x1000.webp.webp\" alt=\"System of a Down\u2019s John Dolmayan Wants Charlize Theron Jailed Over a Quote She Didn\u2019t Even Say\" class=\"wp-image-570600\"  \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dude, just shut up.
