Anne Frank Reimagined: Repulsive in Every Way
Victory Girls ^ | 4 Aug 2018 | Marta Hernandez

Posted on 08/05/2018 3:11:27 AM PDT by Rummyfan

Director Stan Zimmerman’s production of the classic play “The Diary of Anne Frank,” seems to be an exercise in seeing just how many people this jackass can demean, denigrate, and degrade, while extolling the holy illegal alien as a paragon of virtuous struggle. Zimmerman’s effort to reimagine mangle the horrifying experience of a young woman and her family trying to avoid extermination is a cheap ploy to promote an onerous open borders agenda, while wrapping himself in the figurative pelts of Holocaust victims as protection against well-deserved condemnation.

The cast is a diverse (read: filled with an appropriate number of minorities) conglomeration of actors such as Keith Coogan (“Adventures in Babysitting”), Tasha Dixon (Miss Arizona USA), David Gurrola (“Insecure”), Heather Olt (“The Middle”), Raquenel (“My Life is a Telenovela”), Robert C. Raicch (“Are We There Yet?”), Teddi Shaffer (“The Open Book”), Raymond Abel Tomas, Emiliano Torres (“Shooter”) and introducing Genesis Ochoa as Anne Frank. But I don’t even care about that, as long as they do justice to Anne Frank – the face of the Nazis’ efforts to exterminate an entire people.

What a Frankenstein of a sentence. This writer is in need of an editor.

Might also be nice if in the first paragraph he told whether it was a play version, tv version or film version and what city it is in, right? Sheesh!

"This writer is in need of an editor."

Not as long as he has the "correct" social views....

sending people who violated the laws of our nation back to where they came from cannot be compared (by anyone remotely sane) to sending millions of people to a fucking gas chamber and murdering them!

This is why this descends to bloodshed. They’re CRAZY.

“...They’re CRAZY...”
Absolutely. Liberalism (communism) is a chronic, no-cure mental disease that rots out the brain in varying degrees to the point where the individual can no longer determine fantasy from reality: up is down, right is wrong, hot is cold, male is female, etc., etc.
They’re violent, totalitarian, godless, vile, anti-american sub-human creatures and there is NO co-existing with them.

Note I doubt they would try this with the black Civil Rights struggle. It mocks the severity of the Holocaust, & belittles it.

I figured it out after giving that source page a hit. There was a strike-through in the original copy.

I agree that the sentence still needs revision, however.

And remember that they also justified the Holocaust by labelling the people who were to die as bug threats to society as well.

He could have made it even more repulsive by making the family Palestinian, being persecuted by Israelis.

The director is obviously a progressive, and therefore by definition anti-Semitic and sympathetic to the Nazi regime.
