Blacklist: Right Wing used the same methods as the Communists

@second-eye


Alonso hasn't done features Hollywood films since the '90s, but I think that's more due to Hollywood's sexist sidelining of actresses when they turn 40,and she even admitted years ago in an interview that she just decided to take a break from acting,period----so saying that her career went down because of her political beliefs is nonsense. And also because the Tea Party have been exposed for the pathetic joke they are, and it's not cool to even be associated with them anymore. Don't even start trying to claim that left-wingers are zealots and that BS because that dosen't apply to all all left-wingers anymore than it applies to all right-wingers.

Also, what no one seems to have pointed out (I saw the film, liked it) was that a lot of the Communist sympathizers in Hollywood did not know about the extent of Stalin's atrocities until it came out after his death around the mid-'50s. So to claim that Trumbo and his cohorts supported these regimes supposedly knowing what he was doing is a little over the top,and i don't see any actual proof being presented here whether they actually did or not. I liked the film because I already knew about the history behind it, and of course Cranston pretty much nailed it as Trumbo. And,yeah,the McCarthy hearings was basically a political witch hunt---you even had some people who weren't actually Communists but got blacklisted simply because they merely knew,worked with, or associated with someone who was either a Communist. That's how it actually went down. Also none of the blacklisted were ever convicted or actual espionage against the U.S. or anything like that. If someone knows better about that than I do, feel free to correct me anytime.

John Malkovich? I didn't know he's a republican. He never talks about politics.
And what about the biggest R in Hollywood: Clint Eastwood. He talked to a *beep* chair at the Republican Convention, ffs! And I don't see him struggling. So, cut the crap

so you think its ok for congress to harass innocent civilians and throw them in jail for not bending over. youre a right big government fascist.

And for all the suffering he endured, it pales in comparison to the misery and death that millions faced under the ideology he so admired, communism.

Oh, great...another moronic right wing blowhard with a superior grasp of the truth as he knows it. You really need to wake up and realize that you're a callous dullard living in a hermetically sealed, thought-free zone. My dearest of Lords, the willful ignorance in this thread is appalling.

Who's stopping you from worshipping? We just don't want you all up in our face while you're doing it!

@clearthinkernow

It's the left wing now taking away Christian's freedom to worship and live their lives according to the rules of the Bible

You keep saying ignorant,paranoid BS like this, and then you have the nerve to wonder why people think right-wing Christians are crazy as hell. Nobody is taking away your freedom to worship anything away at all, and the bathroom thin only came up because some right-wing nut in South Carolina made up this stupid law to prevent trans folks from using the same bathrooms as cis folks, when there really were no real problems with that subject---he created it making up that stupid,uneccessary law.

👏👏👏
