Your Reaction to M. Streep's Award Speech?

“This instinct to humiliate, when it’s modeled by someone in the public platform, by someone powerful, it filters down into everybody’s life, because it kinda gives permission for other people to do the same thing,” she said. “Disrespect invites disrespect, violence incites violence. And when the powerful use their position to bully others, we all lose.”

For? Against? In the middle?

That is exactly why no one watches awards shows. She was there to receive an award for what she makes a very comfortable living doing. She should have simply expressed her gratitude for that, and walked away.

She took advantage of her very privileged status. But the issue itself is vital, the danger from a narcissistic leader is real. I'm glad she spoke out.
