Last night in Chris Rock’s Oscar introduction speech, he of
course attacked the idea of blacks not getting their Affirmative Action share
of Oscar awards, while ignoring the fact that no white actors have received any
BET awards, yet he called the Oscar awards the “White People’s Choice Awards”
even though his personal pay for his appearance last night could pay off the
debts of thousands of the police officers across the nation who he defamed with
his remarks about the blacks who COPS shot while they were going to the movies.
Chis Rock is reported to be worth over 70 million dollars, yet takes advantage
of the admitted racism of Hollywood to abuse the police officers who defend him
and his property. And did anyone see Leonardo DiCaprio reject his selection of
Best Actor? If Mr. DiCaprio was really interested in an equal distribution of
black faces among the winners, he would have turned down even his Oscar nomination,
let alone the award, and insisted it be given to a black actor (or actress,
right? Is Hollywood also being sexist by giving one of its most coveted awards
to a man?).
But of course, any Affirmative Action must begin with
someone else’s award, not DiCaprio’s. It’s not diversity that is the problem in
Hollywood, there are black and Hispanic faces in excess of their representation
in the general public. The supposed
subject here is specific awards, supposedly given based on merit, that the
liberals in Hollywood are so defensive about. Will this require a new
Affirmative Action model to be established by the government to oversee an
equitable distribution of the awards until a “fair” distribution has been made?
I believe not. If the Obama administration was on board for such enforced
equality the idiot Joe Biden would have not appeared at last night’s ceremony;
he would have strutted to a microphone and righteously and pompously condemned
the entire evening’s events. But Joe was there and as a result let the world
know that (alleged) racial and sex discrimination are OK with the Oval Office
as long as their pals and supporters in Hollywood are the culprits.
Is the supposed racism of our Hollywood stars expanding to
the broader United States? I ask this because it’s been reported that the
viewing audience last night established an eight-year low. Is America rejecting
the selfishness and excesses of Hollywood in general, or did they simply not
want to hear what Mr. Rock had to say on the subject? Chris rock has vast
wealth and lives in luxury unimaginable to most white and black Americans, yet
Hollywood pretends that people with his skin color are being horribly
mistreated because they don’t receive Oscars regularly.
I’ll give Mr. Rock one compliment though: he stated in his
monologue that in the 50s and 60s blacks had serious things to worry about and
try to overcome, so at that time they didn’t have time to protest the Oscar
nominations. This realization of the real world where most people live is
appreciated and too often forgotten as the exclusive, rich liberals of the east
and west coasts try to excuse their excessive wealth by pretending to find some
flaw in America that they must tell the world about.
