It absolutley amazes me what an elitist and monumentally stupid bitch barbara streisand is.

I mean fucking seriously, Democrats are not going to save the planet. Really. They're not.

Fucking stupid.

anyways.

i admit, i hate barbara myself but there's something that i find hypocritical when people criticize celebrities for voicing their opinions

it usually is some version of this:

"fucking [celebrity name here] doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about! He thinks he knows all the answers and how to solve the problem! but what I think we should do is [regurgitated answer]."

because you're absolutely right. It is wrong for a celebrity to have opinions and even worse for them to voice them. just as people are allowed to spend their money how they want, they are also allowed to spend their fame on what matters to them.

Criticizing a celebrity for voicing their opinion on a political matter is pretty popular, but is there a huge difference between that and contributing to a philanthropy with an outspoken political or social justice mission?

Also, celebrities may be rich and famous but they are still American citizens, they have a right to free speech...

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
