Brian Cox's anti-millennial comments last week have critics confused about the Scottish actor's politics.
The "Succession" star seemed to take a page out of a conservative playbook, bashing "woke culture" and calling out millennials as the "arbiters of this shaming" during an "Uncensored" interview with Piers Morgan on July 11.
"The whole woke culture is truly awful," Cox told Morgan during an exchange on the Fox Nation show about how social media shapes the way we view the world. Morgan criticized "shaming culture" and its "incessant need to shame and bury people." Cox agreed and concluded that millennials are often behind such "shaming." (Morgan himself quit his previous role on "Good Morning Britain" after receiving a wave of criticism for disparaging comments about the duchess of Sussex.)
