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?

She's an actress, she does what all kids do, pretends to be someone else. She's hardly an intellectual. Anyone who would look to her for direction has got to be dumber than dirt. But she is entitled to say whatever she wants. And her critics are entitled to criticize. I don't care. Have fun y'all.

Have you looked into any part of her personal life, education, charity programs and donations, accomplishments in her years at her career? None of it like a child pretending to be someone else. I guess you are an authority on intellectuals also ? "There are two things in life that are infinite, the universe and the stupidity of people and I'm not so sure about the universe." Albert Einstein
I guess he wasn't an intellectual either, just a scientist pretending to be one. It's obvious that you don't care. I am having fun, TY 8)
