Yes, in politics, because apparently some SJW with nothing better to do has unearthed a 1971 Playboy interview with him, and the SJW social media universe is aflame in outrage as to what an evil man he was.
Though it all did lead me to this quote by him, so I guess it's worth the outrage:
"Republic. I like the sound of the word. It means people can live free, talk free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however they choose. Some words give you a feeling. Republic is one of those words that makes me tight in the throat — the same tightness a man gets when his baby takes his first step or his first baby shaves and makes his first sound as a man. Some words can give you a feeling that makes your heart warm. Republic is one of those words."
"I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” ... words to live by..........John Wayne

before moving on to call many black Americans under-educated and ignorant.
I guess it would be racist to compare HS graduation rates based on race.
Sorry, many blacks are under educated and this is borne out by the grad rates and it's even worst than it was back in Wayne's day. And it's not a race issue but one of culture, a culture that far too many blacks have embraced.
But, you know, it's racist to point that out.

And 50 years from now, many of our current progressive attitudes will be seen as hopelessly old-fashioned, out of touch and wrong. Many cultural attitudes and norms are a moving target that move along with the times.

I do wish I could be around then, to watch the current SJWs cry about being called bigoted, racist, and whatever other terms the new generation of SJWs will call them.

At the rate they're going you only need to hang on for another 18 months to see that.

Heh - true enough. I've been reading the Kurt Schlichter "Kelly Turnbull" series on a future America where the commie states broke off into the "People's Republic" and the protagonist works for the free states.
Back when I read the first book in the series, I was kinda like, "Man, this guy goes a little overboard with the diversity stuff the SJWs supposedly do." I recently finished the third book in the series, "Wlidfire", and danged if some recent real life SJW events didn't almost copy what I thought was "over the top" in his writing, not three months after that book was released.

I've heard Wayme's statement before. Anyone thinking it's racist must have a negative sign in front of his IQ. >:D

So, SJW's think John Wayne was a racist, sexist evil white man...
Let me find my shocked face... Oh, wait, that's right, I wore it out and the new one is back ordered on Amazon.

I have to slow down when reading things as I read that as:

I wish they'd pick a line propaganda and stick with it. The last one was that Wayne was closeted homosexual. Now he's an evil conservative? Is consistency too much to ask for?

It's Virginia, it is okay if our shocked faces are black.

All someone needs to do is leak that he was 1/1024th Native American and all will be forgiven.

Lived there for 5 years be being forced to "retire". I worked in Charlottesville and lived over Afton Mountain in Staunton as it was MUCH cheaper for housing despite the 100 miles a day we put on our vehicle!
