Actress Has a Message for “White Dude” Movie Reviewers, and It’s Not Pretty
Actress Brie Larson, who is set to make her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut next year as Captain Marvel, has proven once again that the progressive poison floating around Hollywood has infected the vast majority of professionals working in the field.
Larson can’t seem to grasp the fact that movies are an art form that manages to bypass all of the differences between us as human beings through storytelling, helping us to connect with each other through our shared humanity, erasing those distinctions that often divide us.
Yet, because of liberalism and the brain eating ideology that makes up that diabolical system of belief, Larson and people like her can’t see what’s right in front of their faces.

The actress recently stated that she wants fewer “white dudes” reviewing movies.
This lack of consistency in the application of liberal principles concerning tolerance is staggering.
It seems that actress Brie Larson (“The Room”) has a difficult time grasping that reality. In fact, she thinks “white dudes” don’t understand certain films and thinks they marginalize bona fide pieces of garbage like Ava DuVernay’s social justice swansong to new age religion – “A Wrinkle In Time” – merely because they are both white and male.
Accepting the Crystal Award for Excellence in Film at the Women In Film Crystal + Lucy Awards on Wednesday, Larson said more women and people of color should be allowed into screenings.
“Female and underrepresented critics can’t review what they don’t see, and many are denied accreditation or access to press screenings,” she said. “So, if you are in this room, or if you know someone who is a gatekeeper, please make sure that these invites and credentials find their way to more underrepresented journalists and critics, many of whom are freelancers.”
“Am I saying that I hate white dudes? No, I’m not,” she said. “But what I am saying is if you make a movie that is a love letter to a woman of color, there is an insanely low chance that a woman of color will have a chance to see your movie and review your movie… It really sucks that reviews matter, but reviews matter.”
.@brielarson's Crystal Award acceptance speech was characteristically wonderful and I'm sorry I didn't capture the whole thing on video. It was centered around @Inclusionists' film critics diversity study that was released this week. #CrystalLucys pic.twitter.com/qPjzjSjfKz

“I don’t need a white dude to tell me what didn’t work for him in ‘A Wrinkle In Time.’ It wasn’t made for him,” she said to a round of applause. “I want to know what that film meant to women of color, to biracial women, to teen women of color, to teens that are biracial. And, for the third time, I don’t hate white dudes. These are just facts. These are not my feelings.”
It’s mind-blowing that Larson thinks the reason this film adaptation wasn’t successful is because of white guys giving it bad reviews. This is about as stupid as it gets, but then again, the vast majority of the folks working in Hollywood aren’t known for their high level of intelligence.
The reason “A Wrinkle in Time” did so poorly was because they stripped the movie of its Christian themes, changing it into a neutral tale that promoted paganism and humanism. Everything that made the story special was removed.
People didn’t like it because it was dull, lifeless, and did not capture the spirit of the book.
Marvel’s “Black Panther” and the smashing success it earned both critically and at the box office is proof positive the world enjoys black led entertainment. The truth is, “A Wrinkle in Time” was just a bad movie.
Time to move on.

AOC May Have Committed ‘Major Ethics Violation’ After Startling Discovery Uncovered
Kind of a big deal!
New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s boyfriend, Riley Roberts, was found to have a government email address.
Her team was quick to say that Roberts was not a member of AOC’s staff, therefore he’s not earning a salary.
From Daily Mail:
take our poll - story continues belowCompleting this poll grants you access to Flag And Cross updates free of charge. You may opt out at anytime. You also agree to this site's Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.Her chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti also argued the move was normal for a spouse or partner.
He wrote: ‘He’s not paid. We have no volunteers in the office. He’s not doing any government work. He can see her calendar just like spouses/partners/family members in other congressional office.
But something’s up.
You see, Roberts is actually listed in Alexandria’s staff directory.
LOOK:
Hey @AOC – A friend of mine who works in the House just sent me this screenshot of your staff directory from the internal congressional database.
Contrary to your denial, it lists your boyfriend as being on your staff. Care to explain why you appear to be lying? pic.twitter.com/My8ixAJyXC

Is this a “major ethics violation?”
Turning Point USA’s Charlie Kirk says, yup.
.@Aoc is having a tough week
She ran Amazon out of NYC killing 25,000 working class jobs for her constituents she pretends to fight for
She is accused (with strong evidence) of breaking ethics rules by hiring her boyfriend on staff
Green New Deal political joke of 2019
— Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) February 15, 2019
Wow – @AOC denies her boyfriend is on her staff and yet this official document lists him on your staff
Starting to look like a major ethics violation and you lied to cover it up. https://t.co/7QyMfm4y4b

Alexandria’s chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti openly supports a man who was an Hitler “ally.”

More from Liberty Nation:
Saikat Chakrabarti is a highly motivated, smart guy. A Harvard grad, he founded a web tools company, Mockingbird. He is a founder of Justice Democrats, the PAC set up with The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, was instrumental in getting AOC elected, and is presently going through congressional training to learn how to become an effective chief of staff for the Dems’ golden girl.
Based on a recent clothing choice, Chakrabarti might justifiably be considered a Nazi sympathizer. But really? Well, yes. In his latest love-fest video for AOC, Chakrabarti is sporting a tee-shirt that features a portrait of Subhas Chandra Bose. Not familiar with this former Indian head of state? Here a few facts:
-Bose was an ally of Adolf Hitler and met with him personally in 1942.
-Bose founded the Free India Legion (FIL) made up of troops captured by Nazi Field Marshal Rommel’s Afrika Korps.
-The FIL swore an oath to Hitler and was under SS command.
-Bose teamed up with the Japanese in 1943.
-Bose was an admirer of the USSR and sought to implement its authoritarian practices in India.

At a press conference for Sunshine Movement, which is far-left, Alexandria compared her midterm election victory to the Civil Rights Movement.
There are no words to explain this ignorance. It would be funny if it was meant to be parody.
WATCH:
She also thought her win was comparable to the moon landing.
AOC: “This is not just about a clean new deal. This is about a new deal for the United States of America.”
“Because in every moment when our country has reached the depths of darkness, in every moment when we were at the brink, at the cusp of an abyss and we did not know if we would be capable of saving ourselves, we have. We’ve done it. We’ve dug deep and we’ve done what we thought was impossible.”
What an utterly ridiculous comparison to make.

Former Governor Mike Huckabee had some thoughts:
Ocasio-Cortez compares her election to moon landing. Huh? Big difference. Moon landing was LUNAR, not LOONEY; Moon landing done by ppl who knew what they were doing…those who elected someone who thought there were 3 branches of Congress did NOT. https://t.co/Kc3nvvByN3

Here’s another wild clip featuring the gaffe-prone Democrat Socialist:

AOC also needs everyone to know that “people are going to die” if something isn’t done about climate change.
People are going to die if we don’t start addressing climate change ASAP.
It’s not enough to think it’s “important.” We must make it urgent.
That’s why we need a Select Committee on a Green New Deal, & why fossil fuel-funded officials shouldn’t be writing climate change policy. https://t.co/bn6NloGlaY
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) November 23, 2018
Maybe Alexandria didn’t get the message that large outfits often falsify their data to make it seem as if things are worse than they are?
Ugh. It’s going to be a long two years covering this one.
Alexandria is apparently looking for attention, sending what was clearly a bold-faced lie on Twitter.
See it:
People keep giving me directions to the spouse and intern events instead of the ones for members of Congress 🤦🏽♀️
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) November 14, 2018
What’s the problem?
Republican consultant Arthur Schwartz has the answer:
At dinner with a congressman. He said there were no intern events today that he knows of. His staff said same. #liar https://t.co/1McNy3LNzH

JIG IS UP! Chicago Police Believe Jussie Smollett Paid Men to Orchestrate Assault
And the Oscar goes to…
And the Oscar goes to…Jussie Smollett for “Hate Crime!”
Just as many people suspected from the start, sources within the Chicago Police Department now firmly believe the “Empire” actor’s story was a complete and utter hoax.
What will liberals have to say about this?
Smollett case news. Backing up @RaferWeigel report: @ABC confirms detectives were able to confront the 2 brothers
with evidence they purchased the rope found around Smollett’s neck at an Ace hardware store.

Chicago police tell @ABC detectives are eager to speak to Jussie Smollett again urgently. “We have been in touch with Smollett’s attorneys. We contacted his attorneys last night. We made our intentions clear.”
— Rob Elgas (@RobElgasABC7) February 17, 2019
Two law enforcement sources with knowledge of the investigation tell CNN that Chicago Police believe actor Jussie Smollet paid two men to orchestrate an assault on him that he reported late last month.
The sources told CNN the two men are now cooperating fully with law enforcement.
[…]
The sources told CNN there are records that show the two [Nigerian] brothers purchased the rope found around Smollett’s neck at a hardware store in Chicago.
Smollett even reimbursed the brothers for buying the rope.

Originally, the report was that Smollett was attacked by two men who yelled, “This is MAGA country.” Likewise, Smollett told authorities that his attackers were white.
Not long after, Smollett’s neighbors doubted his story and ABC Chicago said Smollett may have staged the attack.
On Smollett’s neighbors, via New York Post:
CHICAGO — Nearly two weeks after “Empire” star Jussie Smollett claimed he was the victim of a racist, homophobic attack, cops have yet to identify any suspects — and some people in his tony Chicago neighborhood are growing skeptical.
[…]
“I’ve been in this neighborhood five years. I don’t believe it, not around here … Half the people are gay and the other half are black.”
WATCH:
From ABC Chicago, who noted that Smollett staged the attack with the help of others because he was being written off the show.
From ABC 7:
Multiple sources have told ABC7 Eyewitness News that police are investigating whether Smollett and the two men staged the attack allegedly because Smollett was being written off of “Empire.”
ABC’s Robin Roberts interviewed Smollett, where he proceeded to stick to the lie.
Jussie said he was baffled that people didn’t beleive him. Apparently, he’s justt not thatt good of an actor, huh?
If Smollett was being written off the show prior to this insane “hate crime,” what will happen to him now?
Will social justice warriors voice their support? Will he maybe get his own spinoff?
How about Smollett pays for his crime and serves his time? That seems like the most appropriate response.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for lefties to say they were sorry for jumping on the Jussie badwagon, though.
They’ll hold strong togetther and atempt to take the conversattion toward “racism in America.”
Count on it.
