The House Un-American Activities Committee begins its investigation into Communist infiltration of Hollywood, resulting in a blacklist that prevents some from working in the industry for years.
Something that takes a little digging to find is that Hollywood really WAS infiltrated with Communists by 1947!
The current liberal condemnation isn't that they were being unjustly accused; it was that they were being accused and exposed at all!
Remember. If you're paying Hollywood; you're paying for Hollywood.
You don't need them. You will not starve without them, like you would if there were no farmer. You will not freeze in the dark, like you would without linemen or electricians. You will not drown in your own waste, like you would without plumbers and sewer technicians.
What happens if the TV remains blank?
The worst that can happen is an awkward silence. But conversation might happen.
But what happens to the dancing monkeys if we stop paying them to dance?
While I doubt that many would starve, they would not be living lavish lifestyles any longer. Their political clout would be reduced to that of normal citizens, which they are.
Boycotting dancing monkeys leads to nothing bad. Encourage it!
Dancing monkeys just need to dance. Their opinion means nothing.
ReplyDeleteYes, Hollyweird was full of commies and fellow travellers. The bannings were justified.
ReplyDeleteEven better, Sen. McCarthy got started on his crusade using the State Department's own internal investigations as to how many State Department employees were commies or in the pay of commies (mostly the Soviet Union, no surprise there.)
