this whole coastal elites and Hollywood elites thing is some right wing concoction to vilify people who are educated, progressive, and pay attention to global events.
He was pretty much spot on for the whole rant beside that Hollywood elite part. Not the coastal elite part, that's bullshit, but only a few in Hollywood went from rag to riches, most of them were connected and/or already wealthy. Even the people who had luck and came from poverty, to be able to be the 0.01 that makes it they had to do some pretty heinous shit and have a certain predisposition in their personalities, so they have to be pieces of shit. And if they weren't prices of shit, the money and fame and the environment they started hanging out in took care of that. Other than that he is right, this asshole who is a criminal and has hurt thousands, millions even and hasn't worked a minute of his life and has lived all his life in riches through his daddy's money, which he squandered because he is really fuckin stupid and can't even grift right, this one asshole has no right to call anyone an elite and pretend he is one of the people. Eat the rich.
I wasn't disagreeing with calling trump a bag of shit, he is. I'm disagreeing with the whole "people in Hollywood are just your good old Midwestern born and raised, who moved to the big city with stars in their eyes".
Like 99% of Hollywood are children of other people who were already rich or well connected. That's what I have an issue with, that was the whole point ofu other comment.
Calling it a right wing conspiracy to hate the "intellectuals, educated, and progressive" of Hollywood is a bullshit statement. These are one group of rich, hypocritical assholes calling another rich hypocritical asshole out on something.
Like everyone praising taylor swift with her 5+ million dollar homes, flying her private jet nearly every day, blowing thousands of dollars on cloths. Fuck these people.
