Oscar-nominated actress Karla Sofía Gascón apologizes for old social media posts

Spanish actress Karla Sofía Gascón, who starred in the Oscar-nominated film Emilia Pérez, is facing a backlash after old, derogatory posts on X, formerly Twitter, resurfaced Thursday morning.

Many of the posts, which were written in Spanish and shared by writer Sarah Hagi in a series of screenshots with Google translations on X, directly vilify Muslims. One post calls Islam a “hotbed of infection for humanity.” Another claims that Islam is “incompatible with Western values.”

Did Karla Sofía Gascón apologize because the things she said about Islam were false, or did she apologize because the things she said about Islam were true?

Certain inconvenient truths are not allowed to be said publicly.

It is the most hilarious knockdown of Hollyweird in a generation -- the film gets more noms than the freaking Godfather, and it is completely undone because the tranny turned out to be a shitposting troon.

Bank on it that he has more undiscovered posts out there.

He just set an extra 100M on fire that movie would have made in streaming as Best Picture. And his career is over! LOFL! SCHADENFREUDE!

You can thank political correctness and leftism for that madness.

Who cares?

Precisely.

Sorting out Dar al-Islam is way beyond what we could or should be doing.

Let's take a crack at sorting out Mexico - AGAIN.

I don't see any falsehood in these statements.

“Let’s take a crack at sorting out Mexico - AGAIN.”

The US needs to be straightened out too. Along with the severe slippage of Canaduh of late.

But, for sure, Meh-he-co needs some treatment starting from the border and working South aways.

Not derogatory, true.

The key here is to not seek human adolation, only praise God.

Fly the rainbow flag at our embassies. I’d be against it but not anymore.

Gascon is not a “she”, Gascon is a dude.

To quote a John Wayne line, “Never apologize. It’s a sign of weakness.” People need to stop genuflecting to the PC police.

I suspect that if it cannot determine its proper gender, it couldn’t possibly determine what it was apologizing about.

Now I am rooting for him to win. It will be the final insult to stupid Hollywood females that have supported this trans Insanity for years.
