It’s worth nothing that the author of Handmaid’s Tale wrote it as an allegory on Islam. Of course, our Left twists that in absurd ways.

Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale is becoming more bizarre by the episode, but this week is probably the peak of silliness this season. After child brides, whipping women, and denouncing campus speakers, season two now proudly presents us with voice of the Resistance, Oprah Winfrey. Houston, I think we’ve jumped the shark.
The plot comes down to the wire in the June 27 episode “Holly” as June (Elizabeth Moss) finds the keys to a car in a vacant house. She turns the car on and hears a broadcast from the rebel channel Radio Free America on the radio, voiced by none other than Oprah Winfrey. That’s right, Oprah is now the voice of Gilead resistance.
Announcer: Radio Free America broadcasting from somewhere in the Great White North. And now, this news. The American government in Anchorage today received promises of economic aid from India and China. In the United Kingdom, additional sanctions on Gilead were announced as well as plans to raise the cap on American refugees relocating from Canada. Now, a tune to remind everyone who’s listening, American patriot or Gilead traitor: we are still here. Stars and stripes forever, baby.
[Playing Bruce Springsteen’s “Hungry Heart”]
At least in some universe Oprah Winfrey can be the #Resistance leader liberals desperately want her to be. And it’s no surprise that a Bruce Springsteen tune comes out as a new symbol for this movement. What could be more American, they might ask? My answer: just about anything.

A pagan lesbian racist and a filthy draft dodger to the rescue of the Dummocrats . . . nice going.
This handmaid’s tale is pure non-sense.
I came 2 seconds within watching this yesterday.
I wont waste the BitTorrent download.

...just something else I can ignore..
Never seen it, but know roughly what it’s about. It seems to describe contemporary Islam.
Canadian feminazi antiChristian screed that is resurrected every so many years to mythmake some hysteria about conservatives and those who still believe in God.
If they wanted to be timely they would set it in Saudi Arabia but that would be deemed Hate Speech.
But did you notice the ONLY world religion that DOES ACTIVELY rape and enslave women is the ONLY religion tolerated by today’s liberal socialists?
“Born in the U.S.A.” is not longer patriotic to liberals.
No kidding. I tried to read the book, got maybe about a quarter of the way through it and couldn't make it any further. Nonsense? Try complete crapola. I sure don't understand its draw.
Anything associated with Springsteen is a must avoid.
Its been shown the Russian did actually create two Memes “Not my President” & “The Resistance”. So, who are actually Tools of Moscow?
Hey Morons! Its a F******** Book.
Let's get real Hollywood... we 'get' your propaganda - and generally reject 'your political messages'. No one looks up to your rapists, abusers, or liars... or sluts or victims. (Sluts who moved up in Hollywood and 'victims' who didn't 'put out' and were sent home'...
Hollywood: We've seen your 'values' and victims and we're NOT impressed with Weinstein and the rest of the abusers who paid off their victims fast enough to escape the net...
I made the mistake of reading the stupid book. If they really want to find a place and a religion that keeps women dressed in long gowns and doesn’t allow them any rights, why don’t they film this in a Muslim country? Hmmm, I wonder....
Oprah pimped young females to Harvey Weinstein.
PS: what do you call a lesbian dinosaur?
A: Lickalottapus
They somehow managed to get Oprah, fresh off her recent success in the megahit movie A Wrinkle In Time.
Wait, the movie bombed and completely ruined a famous book?
Oprah’s performance was horrible?
Quick, someone get that information to the producers of The Handmaid’s Tale.
I’m sure they’ll want to recast, since they already have enough bad acting in their show.
