Dear Bette; As an entertainer, you are first rate. As a commentator on real life, which I am sure you can barely remember, if at all, you are a blooming idiot re real world issues..
What is your authority? Lemme guess, politicians mouthing (usually misinterpreted) media tripe from trough feeding, rent seeking sciencytists.
And NO, none of these disasters are really unusual or happening for the first time, ever.
How did Trump wreck the world environment in 18 months? Trump has a Time Machine?
Let's TALK about Hollywood vs Trump voters:
To set the stage, why not review a Reality show based on exactly that premise:
Paris Hilton and Nicole Richey's The Simple Life
- If you identified with the two girls and thought their host families were bumpkins, congrats.. you are a bona fide Hollywoodian Democrat wannabe.
- Of the two, I thought Nicole was classier and had the most character. I'm probably not alone.
Viewed dispassionately, though, the girls' disconnect with real life shows how divided the country has become. They really COULD have believed in Democratic Socialism.
Political prognostication:
If only Hollywood watched and considered the messages in their own fare:
First off: Idiocracy
Meant to be a hit piece on politics being taken over by the Uneducated and ill-informed (ie Trump voters), it struck me as an update on '1984' which, btw, conservatives and Progressives also see altogether differently. Take that and Animal Farm then look at college campuses and tell me who's right.
Urban Black Rights
Want to see how big city urban politics works and fails?
Watch The Wire.. uncannily prescient preview of Baltimore's descent into chaos. Really not that hard to figure out. Homicide: Life on the Street said the same ten years prior.
The Good Wife deserves honorable mention for Chicago style politics.
