Another headline from USA Today online quoting a useless celebrity. Statements from the article:

“…Stone is slamming Americans she characterized as “uneducated”…

…”We have to stop and think about who we choose for government and if, in fact, we are actually choosing our government or if the government is choosing itself.”…

…”my country is in the midst of adolescence. Adolescence is very arrogant. Adolescence thinks it knows everything. Adolescence is naive and ignorant and arrogant. And we are in our ignorant, arrogant adolescence.” …

…”Americans who don’t travel, who 80% don’t have a passport, who are uneducated, are in their extraordinary naïveté,”…

With regard to her “who we choose” statement, perhaps Stone is the one who is ignorant and uneducated. Trump was chosen by the majority of American voters – not just the electoral college but the majority of voters. And, Harris was not place on the ballot by winning a single primary election but through manipulation of the process by individuals including President Biden, Representative Nancy Pelosi, and other prominent Democratic officials.

Comments like these and those of Alec Baldwin, both make during appearances associated with the film and entertainment industry are starting to become insulting. It reflects the attitude of superiority pervasive in the entertainment field and the media that continues to support them.

While I may not agree with the opinion columnists in USA Today, at least their views are shown as that. Unfortunately the views of celebrities can be reported as the truth without the same disclaimers that their columnists are subjected to.

If these celebrities hate Americans so much, they are welcome to stop taking our money and leave. And perhaps the editors at USA Today should join them.
