“What did he say that was so horrible? That he believes awards should be based on merit?”

Merit is racissss.

[Leep]

“fury”

Wasn’t Christine a Chevy?

[Red Badger]

Yep.
Big No-No in Snowflake land....................

Articles about internet rage are meaningless.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

“Online fury” comes pretty cheap these days.

Stephen King is finding out the hard way the things important to the Literary Left aren’t that important to the Left’s Cultural Commissars.

You’ll be lined up against the wall and shot if you rebel against the party line.

[Interesting Times]

Merit or diversity. Pick one.

“Articles about internet rage are meaningless.”

Your statement infuriates me!

The Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, al these “awards” are BS...I don’t know why people (normal people) are evn concerned about them...It’s just the rich, Hollywood elite crowd patting each other on the back just for dressing up and playing like they are someone else...

George Orwell himself was a leftist but he couldn’t subscribe to the socialism then current in Stalin’s Soviet Union.

Or maybe it’s just that he’s getting older and no longer taking the trouble to hold his tongue. Haven’t you noitced how occasionally public figures — always men — who’ve slavishly mouthed the usual leftist nonsense their entire career will begin speaking their mind as they near the end of their lives?

Boy George recently said something like people demanding use of non-standard pronouns are just attention whores, and of course he's catching grief over it. When Boy George is the calling you an attention whore, you know you're in Clown World territory.

Kinda funny from a guy that basically writes “trash” novels.

My husband is really annoyed that they gave a man’s part to a woman. It was really two men who did this.

I haven’t gone to see Little Women because, from the reviews, they have taken Louisa May Alcott’s book and politicized it. I’m done with Leftists rewriting classic books to make them ‘woke’.

[right way right]

People like King brought it upon themselves.

I went to 3 of these diversity bullcrap sessions. Even the white lefties know it was a waste of time, and I should have punched them all in the face for wasting mine.

There was an episode of RESCUE ME on FX when all the firemen had to attend one and Dennis Leary finally asked on the “film” ..”I have a question: why are ALL the evil guys on the film the white guys?”

[Chode]

[polymuser]

Infuriated her, too!

[Leep]

My dream girl..yipes!

[Rastus]

Yeah, and she’s very annoying at the beginning. The movie was just okay to me.
