The globalist capture of Tinseltown and the entertainment industry is well known, but the regime became ever more brutal following the simultaneous rise of both Trump and cancel culture. Actors and musicians who dared to speak out in favour of the Donald could expect to see their careers go down the pan faster than last night's vindaloo. Even rumours of a Republican leaning are enough to cause a stir, as Jurassic World star Chris Pratt discovered when he refused to fall in line with the orthodoxy and back Kamala Harris. Even though he did not endorse Trump, either, he faced a leftist backlash regardless.
According to Wikipedia, less than 90 actors and musicians publicly endorsed Donald Trump prior to last year's presidential election. The same site names over 700 actors and musicians who endorsed Kamala Harris. One of them was sombre Gen Z singer Billie Eilish.
Following Trump's landslide victory she lashed out publicly during a concert, accusing the president elect of being a misogynist who 'hates women so, so deeply'. As with much of the bizarre rhetoric perpetuated about Trump, her rant was as dumb as it sounded, even before considering the fact that not every single concert goer necessarily aligns with her values and they certainly did not pay an extortionate sum to hear political commentary. Sing some songs!
Eilish had earlier declared on Instagram that Trump's victory was a 'war on women'. Much of her logic is built on the leftist narrative around abortion rights, which demands that unborn babies have no rights to life if the prospective mother decrees it - for whatever reason. It's hardly a bullet proof feminist argument, given that around half of all babies are female and therefore plenty of women's lives are being snuffed out before they are even born.
Then there is the accusation against Trump himself. He has undoubtedly made derogatory comments towards women in the past, but as a man approaching his late 70s he was raised in a whole different world to the Clown World of Gen Z singers. And yet Trump was nothing but gracious and delicate when it came to meeting his beloved Queen Elizabeth II or then PM Theresa May. Does a man who 'hates women so deeply' also spend decades married to the same woman - his third wife no less - and permit that woman to become a highly visible and influential First Lady? This supposed rabid misogynist also spent more than a decade married to Ivana, with whom he conceived his first daughter who later went on to become a prominent member of his first administration.
Then there is his current administration, which is packed full of girl bosses. Some of his female appointees hold very senior cabinet members such as Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem, Brooke Rollins and Linda McMahon. Others are household names such as the former Democrat Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard and the ferocious White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
A rank woman-hating misogynist Trump isn't. A crazed out of touch leftist on the wrong side of history young Bille Eilish is.

WOKE WEDNESDAY #4 - UPDATE
Last October we discussed the
case of a 17-year-old female footballer who had been charged with 'misconduct' after she took exception to facing a bearded male opponent. Following an FA hearing, she was banned for two matches, with a further four match ban suspended for one year. She was also ordered to complete an online DEI course.
The case drew protests from women's rights campaigners and was raised in the House of Lords by Lord Triesman. An appeal hearing in February initially quashed the original verdict and ordered a new hearing. The case was then dropped altogether, but only after the complainant withdrew from the process.
Now the young footballer has gone public, doing a round of media interviews and demanding an apology from the Football Association. Cerys Vaughan, now 18, says she has no sympathy for biological males who want to compete in female sports. An interview with this principled young woman can be found on the BBC
here.
Following the Supreme Court ruling on biological sex, the FA banned so-called trans 'women' from the female game earlier this month. Now give Cerys her apology!
