    Hollywood’s Jim Carrey and Bill Maher: socialism for thee but not for me

    While on the Bill Maher show, Jim Carrey, one of Hollywood’s richest actors declared “We have to say yes to socialism, to the word and everything. We have to stop apologizing,"

    Of course, neither Carrey nor Maher is apologizing for their enormous wealth which they have realized under our free market system.

    To get an idea of how these two limousine riding elitists live, first take a TOUR of Carrey’s $13.5 million dollar home, and then take a TOUR of Maher’s home.

    It is absolutely disgusting how these two, and other wealthy elitists, tell us to practice socialism while they enjoy the fruits of our free market system. This is the same crowd, mind you, that tell us to open our borders to the worlds poverty stricken, poorly educated, low and unskilled populations of other countries, while they live in luxury behind their gated walls, and we suffer the devastating effects of importing the worlds poverty into our communities.

    And let us not forget another elitists, John Legend, who attacked ICE for making our inner cities safe, by fearlessly confronting some of the most dangerous illegal entrant criminals, many who are MS-13 gang members. Does John Legend not care about the safety and well-being of American citizens living in our nation’s inner cities? If John Legend and his squeeze were really as concerned about the “children’s” plight as they say, then why haven’t he and his wife taken a few hundred of these children into their $14 million plus mansion in Beverly Hills? Instead, he, like Carrey and Maher, attack ICE for making our inner cities safe, and putting their lives on the line to protect American Citizens living in our nation’s inner cities.

    American citizens are sick and tired of being made into tax-slaves to finance a maternity ward for the poverty stricken populations of other countries who invade America’s borders to give birth.

    Yes, and the dominantly "socialist" Hollywood types are for the rich giving up their wealth to give lower wage earners a raise, except when it comes to them where these stars get millions per picture as most of the other actors get scale, a mere pittance!

    In a related matter, many big star actresses claim to have be abused by Harvey Weinstein. They kept quiet so as to further their career, allowing him to victimize many more would-be starlets who never reaped the benefits of that prostitution. But these rich, successful actresses bask in their public sympathy for these sisters who were abused but got nothing. But you don't see them sharing their wealth with those who prostituted themselves to Harvey Weinstein and got nothing for it.

    Jim Carrey says 'stop apologizing' and 'say yes to socialism'

    POTUS Trump MAGA
    Published on Sep 10, 2018

    'Dumb and Dumber' actor Jim Carrey on Friday urged Democrats to “say yes to socialism” and embrace the attacks from Republicans. “We have to say yes to socialism — to the word and everything,” Carrey said on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” show. “We have to stop apologizing.” The actor, who’s among the richest in Hollywood, made the remarks after Maher pointed out that Republicans criticize socialist and progressive Democrats by invoking the example of Venezuela, a failing socialist regime where thousands of Venezuelans flee every week amid dire living conditions. “But that word—the Democrats need to get a plan to fight this slander of, ‘Socialism, you’re going to be living in Venezuela,’” said Maher. “And I don’t see it yet.” Republicans have repeatedly slammed the Democratic Party upon the election of troves of socialist candidates in the primaries across the U.S., including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who became the face of the changing party following her shock win against one of the top Democratic lawmakers, Joe Crowley, in New York. More recently, progressive and socialist candidates made advances in Florida and Massachusetts, with Boston city councilor Ayanna Pressley unseating 10-term U.S. Rep. Michael Capuano in a Democratic primary last week. The host of the HBO show said the party’s leftward shift is a reaction to President Trump’s victory in the 2016 presidential election. “Medicare for all, ending student debt, a different approach to the war on terror, ending mass incarceration—it seems like if there is maybe a shining spot in this Trump tragedy, it’s that it’s made the Democrats sort of rediscover who they are,” Maher said.

    Hollywood Hypocrite Jim Carrey Called Out For Promoting Socialism – By A Journalist From Venezuela

    During a recent appearance on the Bill Maher show, Hollywood multi-millionaire Jim Carrey suggested that Americans should embrace socialism. Apparently, now that he’s a wealthy man, he wants everyone else to embrace poverty.

    Surprisingly, Carrey got called out for his comments by a journalist from Venezuela, a country so damaged by socialism that people are resorting to eating their family pets and zoo animals.
    LifeZette reports:

    Journalist Goes Nuclear on Jim Carrey — Furious He Said Socialism Was Good
    Just one mere week after actor-turned-activist Jim Carrey suggested people should say “say yes to socialism,” a Venezuelan journalist is pushing back hard on that suggestion.“We have to say yes to socialism — to the word and everything,” Carrey, who is among the richest celebrities in all of Hollywood, declared last week on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” show.“We have to stop apologizing,” he also said.He made that comment after host Bill Maher expressed outrage that Republicans are attacking Democrats who veer toward the extreme and express a love for socialism — a model of government that has destroyed other countries.Venezuelan columnist Laureano Márquez, in a piece published in the outlet Runrunes, declared that socialism is the root cause of that country’s current economic crisis…“I read that … you said: ‘We have to say yes to socialism, to the word [‘socialism’] and to everything.’ Perhaps for you, as for all humanity, the word ‘socialism’ sounds beautiful,” he went on.The Venezuelan writer then explained that while many people define socialism as “the antithesis of selfishness, synonym of concern for others … support for the weakest and their needs, of seeking health and education for all,” in reality socialism today has “deep threats,” said the writer.
    Here’s more from Breitbart:
    “In Venezuela, we have grown to hate the word socialism, it represents oppression against the people, the destruction of a flourishing nation, and the desperation of its citizens,” Márquez concludes.
    Why do so many people in the entertainment industry fancy themselves policy experts? They come off like college sophomores who have just discovered political activism for the first time.

    In Carrey’s case in particular, his embrace of far left progressivism has severely damaged the public’s good will. His recent lack of success at the box office is a reflection of that.
