How do we explain a privileged, but vicious, man like Robert DeNiro?

These “stars” live in rarefied neighborhoods and have full-time security when they venture out. And yet because they subscribe to the New York Times, they think they are our benefactors.

he once-revered and talented actor Robert DeNiro lost his humanity years ago now, during President Trump’s first term.

THe transformed himself from a beloved actor, a great actor, into a hateful, whiny, disturbed man who, by now, no one but the most Trump-deranged wants to hear speak, act or blather on and on about how he can’t love this country as long as Trump is our president.

The same is true of Jane Fonda, Julia Roberts, Bette Midler, etc., all the moonbat celebrities who think we care what they think about anything.

They spend their lives entertaining us by acting in fictional roles as fictional people. They are good at their jobs, most of them. But that talent they have, whether God-given or learned does not qualify them to tell us what to think or for whom to vote. They live in bubbles of wealth. They often endure the fawning admiration of crowds of people they do not know but who derive joy by sharing their lives vicariously.

Jane Fonda has a long and storied record of hating America; her activities would have shocked and embarrassed her father who was indeed a great actor. He was a Democrat who enlisted to fight in WWII and served in the Navy for three years. If he were alive today, he would surely be a Republican.

The Democrat party of today loathes the military and considers the people who volunteer to be a part of it to be tools of the right.

Nothing could be further from the truth. These young people who join any branch of the military

How do we explain a privileged, but vicious, man like Robert DeNiro? Easy. He’s a Hollywierd hero who knows nothing about real life, but thinks he knows everything because the scripts he reads tell him so. In reality, the guy ain’t worth a bucket of spit.

Springsteen has started to resemble an aging, angry lesbian…I’ve never liked his music since he was sprung on the world in 1975 or so, but now I loathe it and him.

Narcissism and fame.

When somebody believes themself to be so special, so important, so righteous and virtuous, reinforced by all the “yes men” around them, anyone that disagrees with them MUST be a horrible person. So horrible, that leftists believe “the end justifies the means BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY”.

So anything that happens to said person is to be celebrated - no matter how inhumane....because they dehumanize them first.

The same way you explain why that uncle who everyone knows abused his kids and beat his wife still gets to come to family meetings.

Family. Yah don’t get to choose and once you become civilized yah don’t get to put down.

When you’re a Godless self centered piece of shit you, psychologically, need to feel virtue. Leftist politics is how empty vessels fill themselves up with goodness.

That is a good movie, and fits his personality pretty good! :)

He’s a moron. I saw him interviewed on some TV show once, years ago. I was astonished at how stupid he was. He’s very lucky G-d gave him acting talent, otherwise he’d be sweeping floors for a living, don’t think he has the brain power for anything more complex.

He’s entitled to his opinions, to be sure, but he offers nothing of value to anyone, intellectually.

I remember the West Wing lead - Martin Sheen i think. (Never watched the series.) He thought because he played a US president he was knowledgeable enough to comment on national/international issues like a former president. In his mind he was!

De Niro, raised by hippy parents, dropped out of high school at the age of 16. That’s the left’s spokesperson.

I saw a good many movies De Niro made over the years, but cannot think of one that ranks in any of my favorites list.

I also don’t think he a great actor - in every role he is just playing some version of himself.

“Sprung on the world” is a good choice of words. Do you recall that three top weekly magazines (that year?) all had him on their covers in the same week. The payola was much too obvious.

By definition, an actor's success is measured by how fully they can detach themselves from reality and how effectively they can exist in a fictional universe.

DeNiro is a very succesful actor.

He’s a disgusting, has-been human being. Same for Springsteen.
