Equating "Hollywood elites" with "nasty commies" is fucking hilarious. Every time I read about this woman I have to remind myself it's not satire.

Ah, Hollywood elites is an antisemitic dog whistle. Larry David is Jewish, and she's blowing the whistle.

Learning to read the dog whistles is a sobering experience.

If you don’t know how to parse it, the lunatics sound unhinged, but also oddly whimsical. But if you do, it’s just squalid hate.

Aren't the Jewish supposed to be supercapitalist banker financiers or something? How did they go from that to commie?

This gets a bit more deep into antisemitism, basically going back to The Elders or the Protocols of Zion, an old antisemitic hit piece. The original writers were royalist, trying to tie anything against monarchy as a ploy by the "Zionists" to destabilize "goy/goyim" (non jewish) countries.

The extension of this is that anything they hate is the jews doing it. Communism and Civil Rights are just globalist tricking people or causing strife to destabilize a country so they can secretly take over, according to their insane belief system. They don't believe the people running the world actually believe in any of that; simply that they are tools to control the masses.

I cannot fathom how there are people stupid enough to vote for this person.

Didn't her supporters harass the more popular option into dropping out or was another one?

These fucking snowflakes can’t take a joke.
