You’d better be a million dollar Marxist.
Hollywood has a blacklist that the media, historians, and academics don’t discuss.

It’s become the Grammy “best spoken word” award.
20 years of Democrat icon victories including 2 Grammys for pre-president Obama.

So “Best Picture” really means Best Propaganda.

I can’t imagine how nasty it will be this year. All the liberals have gone full retard.
I’m glad I stopped watching it. Oh wait, I have never watched it.

Let’s make it the lowest viewed Oscars ever...

Hollywood has a blacklistTruth. The red scare has nothing on them. Modern day blacklisting is the norm. They are fascists, leftist bullies. F 'em. POTUS should have a Hollywood summit, with James Woods, Scott Baio, Michael Baldwin, and any other free-thinking, America-loving producer, director or actor.

The last Oscars I remember watching was when Red Skelton received an award. That’s a long time ago.

I can’t believe there were no nominations for the movie about a young Ruth Bader Ginsburg fighting sex discrimination battles decades ago. The liberals love her.

Oops, I meant Stephen Baldwin.

... but it’s a movie that’s completely and utterly bereft of a social message. In 2018, that makes it seem (dare I say it?) more trivial than the other contendersWasn't it Louis B Mayer who said if you want to send a message, use Western Union?

A social message? Like the Gosnell Movie, for example?

“BlacKkKlansman” (a racial police drama of searing relevance).
I would hope that is sarcasm.
