At the recent Academy Awards, the best actor award went to Joaquin Phoenix.
Phoenix decided to ignore the great advice Ricky Gervais gave at the Golden Globes to winners: "Come up, accept your little award, thank your agent, and your god and f*** off, OK?"
So, Phoenix started his Oscar acceptance speech by saying the following:
".....but I think the greatest gift that it's given me, and many of us in this room, is the opportunity to use our voice for the voiceless. ....."
You may want to pause around now and wonder who exactly were these voiceless voices he was referring to as tears streamed down his face. Was he referring to the sexually exploited actors and actresses by scum-bag film producers like Harvey Weinstein - who was found guilty of 2 counts of sexual assault and rape today?
Or, maybe the rampant sexual abuse of child actors in Hollywood? Or, maybe the under-age female sex-slaves of people like Jeffrey Epstein - who shopped them around for money and favour?? Or how about all the White girls raped by Pakistani Muslim men in England?
Or, how about the millions of innocent aborted babies?
Those voices of the voiceless?
No.
Phoenix was referring to 'gender inequality, racism, queer rights, indigenous rights and animal rights....'
He ticked off just about 'woke' cause in the world, apart from the ones that take place right under his vegan nose.
So, forgive me if I don't get the feels when rent-a-crowd actors get emotional over cows, and ignore the sexual predations going on in Hollywood.
Buffoons.
