Meryl Streep talks about bullying. She should ask her friends in Hollywood, who are more than happy to ban conservatives.

Yes the Snow Globes were on last night, and like most of the crap coming out of Hollywood, the results were totally self-serving, pedantic, banal and predictable. They hate Trump. And they think saying so is cutting edge and bold. Yeah.

“Powerful.” “Defiance.”
Defiance of whom? The entire industry that cheers her? Heroism requires bravery in the face of ADVERSITY. https://t.co/eLc5vY837A

Or as @corrcomm said,
In a room full of wealthy Leftists, in a free country, where millions are just as unhinged about it.
Yup. A veritable Tiananmen Square. https://t.co/JRDtm8T1CR

All the even more liberal/left and therefore sycophantic Canadian media thought the exact same as the liberal American media, which is also exactly as you’ve come to expect. So there’s literally nothing new here — let alone “newsworthy” (yet all the media are covering it like it were actually Tiananmen Square). To the Canadian media, Streep was not only front page news, she was “powerful” and “daring” and, as the Globe and Mail put it, she “raised the bar.”

What does a person have to do to lower the bar? I chimed in in amazement.
"Raises the bar."
Raises.

I’m so sure if, say, Sly Stallone or Vince Vaughn got up on stage and railed on and on about how good it was that America was finally over and done with Barack Obama, and listed some of his mistakes and failures, Hollywood and their sycophantic media would just charm all over them and how they’d “raised the bar.”
