Richard Dreyfuss and the Difference Between Cultural Capitulation and Cultural Sensitivity
New American Prophet ^ | May 11, 2023 | Dr. Michael Brown

Posted on 05/11/2023 8:41:57 AM PDT by Rev M. Bresciani

What do I mean by cultural capitulation? I mean bowing down to the latest cultural fad, of kowtowing to the most current manifestation of what is PC, of becoming slaves to whatever the societal elites decide is acceptable.

From what I hear Richard Dreyfuss is doing great things.

I’d like to hear him speak.

You hit the nail on the head. I’d love to know how he got his “Lightbulb Moment”.

I'm not a Democrat. I'm, like Norman Lear, a compassionate conservative. And the only compassionate conservative running is Obama.

Richard Dreyfuss, 2012

When Hoover asked him “whether the history of slavery and racism in America might justify making ‘Blackface’ a taboo,” he said no. He explained, “Because it’s patronizing. Because it says we’re so fragile that we can’t have our feelings hurt. We have to anticipate having our feelings hurt, our children’s feelings hurt. We don’t know how to stand up and bop the bully in the face.”

I'm stunned someone from Hollywood 'gets' this basic truth (well other than Bill Maher)... Red pilled is an understatement. Thanks Richard Dreyfuss...

“someone red pilled Richard Dreyfuss”

I have heard that it was Mark Steyn.

It’s your blog. We’re not your clickbait farm.

Woke white morons practicing cultural capitulation, not to mention decimating any pride they had left.

On another thread, someone mentioned he read a Mark Styn mood. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Whatever it was it awakened (won’t say “woke”) him.

"kowtowing to the most current manifestation of what is PC, of becoming slaves to whatever the societal elites decide is acceptable."

For example: referring to homosexuals as "gay."

His comments about the quotas for Oscar consideration were interesting. He rejected the constraint being placed on artistic integrity.

He mentioned Olivier playing Othello wouldn’t happen even though it was Olivier and the inference that only a Jewish person could play the Merchant of Venice now.

Hypersensitivity is corrosive and creates a victimhood mindset, it’s demeaning. It also enforces conformity. I don’t like identity politics. You don’t see people if you treat them like checkboxes.

They could only be more condescending by dressing in African attire while they kneel. Like Pelosi.

Now they need to take the next logical step ...

If blackface demeans blacks,
Then woman-face (transgenders and drag queens) demeans women.

Drefus is getting exactly what he has voted for. He’s just mad because he never thought that any of the democrat bullshit would ever actually affect him.
