Hoover Institution: Uncommon Knowledge With Peter Robinson- 'The Politics of Hollywood With Andrew Breitbart'

Source:Hoover Institution- interviewing right-wing blogger Andrew Breitbart.
"Identified as one of the ten most important people in the media that nobodys ever met, Andrew Breitbart details why leftward-leaning Hollywood is dangerous for America and why the people who run it are uninteresting, vitriolic, and vicious.  Segueing from Hollywood to the Internet, Breitbart explores why the right dominates talk radio and the left seems to do better on the Internet and how the decline of print media is changing the nature of the national political conversation." 

From the Hoover Institution

Is there is fascism amongst leftists (Far-Leftists, actually) in America, with political celebrities who are famous for their ability to entertain who have used their fame to voice their politics and who view people disagree with them, as corporatists or slaves to the Military Industrial Complex or whatever, as well as there are fascists amongst Leftists who work in politics for a living, again who look down on people who aren't exactly like them, who look at life differently, who didn't grow up in the Northeast or San Francisco or Los Angeles or whatever? Sure ! But thats been around for a hundred years or so.

But there's also Fascists amongst people in the Tea Party, who are still stuck in the 1950s . Who have a very narrow view of America and if you don't share their views, you are considered Un-American as well. 

The entertainment industry as far as what they show and say publicly, leans left as far as how they talk about America and American society. And tend to publicly support leftist Democrats when they run for office. But privately, you are going have a helluva hard time finding people who love American capitalism, liberal democracy, and even America itself, then Hollywood entertainers and executives. Just look at how they live and the wealth that they've created for themselves and the people that they work left.

People can talk like 1960s hippie-leftists who want to change the world and take down the man (the supposed white man) and replace American, liberal democratic, federal, form of government all they want and replace it with some type of socialist, collectivist state. But people can only be who they actually are and believe what they actually believe. A lot of the 1% that American leftists like to talk bad about live in Hollywood, California and the rest of the Los Angeles area, as well as in Manhattan New York. All of these supposed American leftists, are 1 percenters who actually love America. And would just like to see America work for more people, but not try to take down our American government and replace it with some type of socialist state. Because they know that would ruin their way of life and lifestyle.

This is something that Andrew Breitbart (RIP) and people on his side of the political spectrum, don't tend to understand. That there's fascism on the fringes of both sides and if you don't fit into one of the boxes, you are so bad as a person, that you don't even deserve to be listened too. 

If your view of America is only what you see from Hollywood, then your view will be a fantasy for the most part. Because a lot what you see from Hollywood, is from some Hollywood director or producer's, view of how they want America to be. Or how they want people to think this is how they want America to be.

But if your view of America, is only what you see from a fundamentalist religious view that all of America is in the Heartland (meaning between San Francisco and New York) that all Americans go to church every week, that we all religious, that we all come from two-parent families, dad goes to work, mom stays home and raises the kids, homosexuals and minorities are kept silent, nothing but family programming on TV, with Family TV Night etc, then you also have a narrow view of America as well.

Hollywood to me is about entertainment. I watch movies and other things to be entertained and from time to time you see something from Hollywood thats produced about true life. A movie based on a true story (to use as an example) but I don't take the politics of Hollywood very seriously. These people are entertainers and tend to look at things the way they want to. And how they believe the world should be. Not how it is.
