And yet millions watched her TV shows and still see his movies. They don’t trust celebrity endorsements, and they found other ways to donate than Oprah’s charity, but that doesn’t mean that “normal, decent people can’t stand” her.
I don’t particularly like Oprah—or especially dislike her. She’s not a part of my world—and there’s no reason why I should think about her.
The article is an example of the noxious, polarizing clickbait and idiotfodder that politicizes everything to get knee-jerk responses.
Sydney Poitier, Hank Aaron, Muhammed Ali, Sammy Davis Jr., Louis Armstrong... Oprah was not the first major black star by any means.
I have always percieved her as the exact opposite of how she has been presented to the public and have never understood her appeal to the masses.
I cannot recall where I read it, but remember reading a story about her family (her father and her sister) coming forward and expaining that Oprah was NOT raised in poverty or abused by her parents in any way, nor was she the victim of overt racism or sexual assault. Rather, she was raised in a middle class neighborhood by a loving family and afforded a lifestyle of privilege, education and opportunity. Yet, trying to find that story on the internet is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Along with Robert De Niro, Rob Reiner, Alec Baldwin, his brother William and most of the marvel actors.
I guess a certain celebrity’s promotion of a political candidate would make a difference with me; depends completely on the celebrity & my preconceived notions of the candidate. If they didn’t match up, well no votes for that one.

Oprah seems like a normal, decent American and I think it’s another delusional Leftist lie that normal, decent Americans don’t like her.
What’s an Oprah? I know what an opera is. But an Oprah? Who could possibly give a shi...er...Dorkbama about an Oprah.

Eat the rich.
I never had any use for Hollywood.
There are a few movies I enjoy but for the most part, they are elitists who think way too much of themselves.
I found a story from 2010...came up easily when I put in the search engine:
Oprah not raised in poverty:

I’ve used that picture before, although I had to link to it because I’m not as smart as you. It really does say it all. Oprah literally looks like a witch offering up a young, reluctant sacrifice to Satan.

Bingo!
I actually believe that my guppies have more human value than the 'orca'......
Orpah is her name, Orca is her fame...
BTTT
Who’s she kidding? Any fire victim who applies for her “donation”
is a “lead,” contacted by her property manager..... to make a deal ....
Stupid white women made her what she is today, shes a phoney
