KING of the UNITED STATES

Hollywood is the chain smoker, who has quit and now drinks too much; and preaches ad nauseam about bad oral habits, (while simultaneously being a total lush). Its a specific breed of hypocrisy.

How perverse it has become, with the regular ACTOR/GLOBAL-GEOPOLITICAL-SUPERGENIUS appearances, admonishing anyone they don’t think is groovy and giving the nation and world TRUE direction derived from REAL expertise. And the studios and directors; cranking out hyper-moralistic duds, striving to judge sternly and with great merit the behavior of the world around them. Hollywood’s elite are champions and heroes at the pointing out of our bad morality, bad politics, greed, and severe prejudices.

Now folks, this is NEW Hollywood! Do NOT BEGIN to confuse this new intellectually and spiritually superior Hollywood with the one that gave us…say, reefer madness. A piece of propaganda directly linkable to the outlawing of minor drugs and the creation of laws directed at harassment of lower class minorities. And, no, not the Hollywood that enjoyed years of applied racism in its works, permitting the occasional Negro maid — and even demanding its own supertalent Lena Horne use the back door. This is not the same Hollywood that painted “injuns” as dogs to be picked off by heroes.

No, this is the NEW Hollywood. It has new concerns:

• The heavy-handed advocacy of “edginess” — risks, and abuses — a “destructive nature” has been made cool! REALLY cool!
• The glamorization of drugs. And CASH!! AND SEX!!!!!! AND GUNS!!!!!!!!
• The pounding of its fists with self assured anti-US sentiment. As if anything else is completely out of the question and, as such, madness. “The only sane conception of politics is a reasonable and intelligent anti-US stance!”
• The dissolution of that tired old “family”. Look, Beaver Cleaver and his family were SO overrated. Family is SO overrated! Some progressive exploration of ANY alternative at all, is healthy, cool, hip, and infinitely better. We have to get OVER that dopey family stuff…unless its selling well…
• The noble rage against business. Because, PLEASE, big businesses are entities that just want to make money and as such are bad! Bad! Bad!… (and “pay no attention to that man behind the curtain”… never mind that Hollywood studios are large business entities, that just want to make money…) (By the way, if you suffer a viewing of the movie “Twister” - I pity you. I would rather be hit by flying debris from the twister than smashed in the face with the ridiculously heavy-handed anti-corporation morality message of the film. Wow, it’s JUST AWFUL).
• Making sure the world realizes completely that Government is BAD. Government makes the Middle East HATE us. (In fact; the sin, decadence, violence, and endless perversions propagated and represented by the Hollywood film industry frightens the shit out of people everywhere, and makes them fear us!)

Throughout the entire world Hollywood disseminates and aggressively distributes endless streams of gratuitous sex, gratuitous violence, uber-edgy behavior, drug use, and psychopathic insanity. All in the name of entertainment… but in the PURSUIT of extreme greed for wealth. The irony, arrogance, and hypocrisy are stunning.

These negative stereotypes of our population reside in the far corners of the world indefinitely from their cinematic release onward, in a way that is indelible.

Hollywood has endlessly painted the populace and government of the United States as selfish, overindulgent, decadent, terminally materialistic, cheating, ignorant, sexually obsessed, immoral, soulless, criminally bent, and endlessly violent and frequently murderous. Is a surprise that somewhere out there someone believes it? But these geo-political authorities in entertainer’s clothing know what they’re talking about - they know greed and vanity when they see it!!

Some may say, “but that IS how we are!”. Well, on a really bad day, I might even agree with that. But even then, in what possible way is Hollywood above that assessment, or in a superior class.

Seriously, who is Hollywood to judge anyone? Anyone at all? Make all the movies you want, Hollywood, but keep your moral and political superiority to your damn selves.
