Streep tirade shows Hollywood Elite hypocrisy

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Actress Meryl Streep's anti-Trump tirade at the Golden Globes reveals the true hypocrisy of the Hollywood elite, and just how far removed they are from the actual plight of the handicapped and the struggles of the working classes.

Hollywood is willing to touch on the issue of disability without actually inviting any members of the community to partake in the conversation, according to New York Times best-selling author and disability activist Kody Keplinger.

“I couldn’t help rolling my eyes,” Keplinger told The Huffington Post. She’s a co-founder of Disability in KidLit, an online resource regarding the depiction of disability in children’s and young adult literature. “The applause in the room felt almost self-congratulatory.”

The Trump-cultists' lack of self-awareness is bad enough that it's getting really hard to think of them as human beings, instead of as an army of human-shaped flesh-robots working forthe greater glory of their master.

Why is this a news story. "Member of elite clique rallies compatriots for one last battle cry before ironic end." Something like this belongs as an amusing anecdote in a history book of the French or Russian Revolutions. The real worry is that such a display occurred; things can't be looking up (at least for Streep's people).

Nice to see a Trump cultist admit that the appropriate comparisons for their cult leader's ascension are bloody revolutions that put in place destructive dictatorial regimes.
