Declaration of Independence

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

Do Hypocrites Win?

Hypocrisy is defined as “the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one’s own behavior does not conform; pretense” by an online dictionary. “Hypocrite” (or “whited sepulcher”) was an unwelcome descriptive given by Jesus Christ to those pretending to be righteous but who were not.

According to an article by Elise McCue in The Daily Signal, Hollywood as a whole is a hypocrite and practices hypocrisy. She gave Ezra Miller as an example. Hollywood rolled out the red carpet for Miller, the star of “The Flash,” but hopes that we will not consider Miller’s personal life. There are “allegations of sexual misconduct and petty crimes” swirling around him, but Hollywood has “turned the other cheek.” McCue compared Hollywood’s treatment of Miller with that of Gina Carano. 

Carano was starring in the “Star Wars” television series known as “The Mandalorian” when she tweeted about comparisons between “America’s political state and that of Nazi Germany.” Carano shared other non-liberal beliefs, and she quickly lost her contract with Lucasfilm.

Another comparison by McCue was Tim Allen’s sitcom “Last Man Standing” that was cancelled “at the height of its success, when it was averaging a viewership of 8.1 million per week.” The show was “ABC’s most-watched sitcom during the 2016-17 season.” Many people believe that the show was cancelled because it “often criticized the Left and made it the butt of many jokes.”

McCue considers the treatment given to “Carano and Allen versus Miller” to be “a very clear message.” That message is: “Hollywood aims to silence and destroy conservatives.” It does not seem to matter what Hollywood stars say or do as long as they are complicit with the Left.

The latest hypocrisy being shown by the Left is the treatment given to the new movie about sex trafficking “Sound to Freedom.” Hollywood had the rights to the story but declined to make the movie. Angel Studios purchased the rights and made the movie, which was the top-selling movie on Independence Day. Now the Left is trying to destroy the movie – but the word is out! Too many people have seen the movie and are encouraging all Americans to see it.
