For decades, Hollywood’s liberal snowflakes have viewed themselves as morally superior to the rest of America, and have taken it upon themselves to lecture and chastise us.
We’ve just looked on in mild amusement. After all, they’re there to entertain us, right?
But, more often than not of late, Hollywood’s presumptuous eminence has started to cause irritation among an America that’s no longer willing to tolerate the hypocritical scoldings of clueless celebrities.
That’s why the Harvey Weinstein sex scandal couldn’t have come at a better time.
The whole thing’s just so over the top and widespread that it can’t be swept under the rug, and it definitely can no longer be ignored.
Hollywood’s double standards have been laid bare, big time, and it’s supposed moral authority all but ruined.
At least one A-list celebrity is admitting as much.
Breitbart reports:
Oscar-nominated actress Jessica Chastain went directly after a key issue that, in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein sex scandal, will affect Tinseltown for at least a generation — the fact that the decades-long, industry-wide cover-up of sexual misconduct has destroyed whatever residual moral authority Hollywood had left.
Speaking at an Elle magazine event Monday, Chastain said, “Oh we’re very quick to point the finger at others and address the issue with social action and fundraising. Yet there is a clear disconnect between how we practice what we preach in our industry.”

She added, “We rally against the presidential candidate who slants a narrative of his sexual assault as mere locker room talk, but at the same time we ignore the stories and warnings of sexual predators in our offices.”
While the knock against President Trump is a myth perpetrated by a dishonest national media that continues to lie about Trump “admitting” to sexual harassment in the infamous Access Hollywood tape (he did not), Chastain’s overall point is dead on.
