    “You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

    `If all you’re paying attention to is recent results and trends, the future for motion pictures, sort of like the

    future for [the NBA], is not in America, but China.” So I think this is quite telling. I think this is one of these

    little hidden stories. Nobody’s gonna pay it much attention at all, and they’re certainly gonna ignore the

    fact that there are 100,000 comments and most of them were anti his decision to endorse Biden.


    I don’t think he cares, ’cause believe me, folks, what’s really happening here is that he’s pleasing his

    masters in China. His movies do far better than better in China than they do in the United States,

    particularly now during COVID, and it’s the same thing with LeBron James and some of these other NBA

    players.`

    Why do these celebrities endorse anyone? Why piss off even one third (or more) of your fans?

    Because they live in a social media bubble....or echo chamber. I think they let their acting roles influence their reality as well.

    Yes, they are showered with adoration from everyone, fans, agents, etc. This inflates their ego and they cannot imagine anyone not loving them.

    well, I have to say my choices of entertainment are narrowing. No more Netflick, most movies and TV shows, sports, no Nike or Starbucks.... and the list goes on. I'm not supporting these extremists with my $$$ anymore.

    It’s similar here, and as a result I’m reading so much more now. It’s a good thing.

    I'm getting to the point I can't stand the TV. News shows are just abnoxious...biased and nothing but yelling. TV shows and movies are stepping all over each other to show LBGTQ? as normal and any show that has a Presidential story line bashes Trump and Trump policies while denigrating Trump supporters.

    About the only thing I like to watch these days is HGTV and some shows on History Channel like Alone and Mountain Men.

    But I do read a lot.
