Sharon Stone is not helping

Sadly, her arrogance and false sense of superiority are not unusual.

But Americans travel a lot. We are just a vastly overpopulated, bloviated nation. It’ been said for some time but it’s truer that ever— there are two Americas. I just hope and pray that black people in the Midwest and the South don’t further get indoctrinated by online misinformation.

[quote] It’ been said for some time but it’s truer that ever— there are two Americas.

With the Sharon Stone America falsely believing it is superior to the other America.

She's right.

She is right. What is wrong with you people?

She grew up in a deplorable area of Pennsylvania. She’s right that the majority of people there don’t travel and are uneducated.

Her voice now sounds like that of an old lady. When did that happen? Next up she’ll want to do Mame.

And her rhetoric sounds preposterous. Italy has elected its own leader who is perhaps further to the right than Trump.

Perhaps she needs to see that many voters are now actively rebelling against limousine liberal talking points and that we are all in a new political environment where celebrity endorsements appear to hinder rather than help a candidate.

Looking down on Americans who don’t have the resources to travel internationally or obtain an expensive education isn’t the Democratic Party I grew up with.

Furthermore

Americans are in this situation because of the very people she says represents the “enlightened” side

The cosmopolitan, educated, worldly international traveler

that is

People who believe that the Vice President controls the price of eggs ARE uneducated.

half the daughters, wives and girlfriends voted for him

Talk all the shit you want about her, but she’s not wrong.

Also? She’s allegedly really intelligent. Many people who are highly intelligent have some sort of quirk or eccentricity.

AND, in her prime, she was a total knockout. A natural, without any plastic surgery. A 10. No question. Most of you fuckers here cannot claim that.

She was not only a ten, she was probably an 11. Just shots of her face alone took my breath away during Basic Instinct.

Truth hurts, doesn't it MAGAts?

You're not the super-human, superior beings you've been brainwashed to believe you are. You are "Idiocracy" writ large.

Says the bitch who lied for several years about being in Mensa.

The idea that all women will vote for a female candidate has sunk the party twice.

Yeah young Sharon Stone was beautiful.

She sounds like fellow old lady Molly Jong-Fast.

She had greasy hair.

She’s basically rearranging Titanic lounge chairs so it really doesn’t make much difference-we’re sunk.

Sharon Stone and people of her ilk need to be disabused of their belief that they are superior to the people they criticize.

R12 = Sharon Stone

R20 and his ilk need to be disabused of their belief that they have a monopoly on patriotism and that the magic sky fairy smiles down upon them because they pay lip service to Christianity.

She’s right but also maybe not the best person to deliver the message.

One of my frustrations with being left-wing is that, even though the mega-rich overwhelmingly support Trump and Dems are clearly the more pro-working class party, it’s easy for Republicans to act like the opposite is true. They may have more mega-rich people on their side, but we have most of the rich people who exist within the public eye.

Makes for a very misleading perception of which party is more the party of the elites.

I agree with Sharon. Trump voters are a bunch of uneducated trailer trash people.

She’s right

Well children, she's not wrong

She told no lies. Every word she spoke was genuine and likely based on her experience of the world. Liberated women feel very betrayed right now.

[quote] Sadly, her arrogance and false sense of superiority are not unusual.

Her sense of superiority is not false. She IS better than morons who voted for Trump.

remember what she said about China?

She's right.

Indelicately stated, maybe. But absolutely right.

You think that it was educated, intelligent, informed, well travelled people who voted for Trump?

It was greedy me-first scumbags (with and without the above advantages) who think they would be richer if they had no government and no taxes to pay. The ones who bristle that a household with three-quarters of a million dollars in earnings (after deductions) is taxed at 37%, all of 15% more than those losers making just under 100,000 per household.

She's not wrong.

I thought we weren’t supposed to travel because flying causes global warming and too many tourists are bad. But I don’t have a degree from Edinboro University, so what do I know?

I’m not saying Sharon isn’t right, but there are better ways to approach this, and the condescending, tone deaf delivery is only drives another nail in the coffin. The celebrity culture and Hollywood that Sharon came up in is long dead and in an advanced state of decay right now. It’s over. Rotting. People don’t want to be told what to think by celebrities anymore. Unfortunately, most boomers like Sharon are too self-involved and stuck in their ways to notice such things.

Camille Paglia is a nut but she was absolutely right about Sharon being hot. She really had the femme fatale thing nailed down.

Sharon Stone is EXACTLY right. When people don't travel, they get suckered in by "America is the greatest country" BS

R30, I wonder if these dumb fuck Republicans will get rid of the SALT cap because there's lots of people in MI, PA, GA and WI as well as WA, CA, NY, NJ, CT and CO that it pushes into a higher tax bracket. It was done to punish Blue states and to ease the tax burden on corporations and the ultra-rich. People need to know that so they can properly attribute their increase in federal tax liability to Trump and his minions.

I wonder what Kevin Costner thinks of this.

The only way to get a good public education today is to be born into an affluent family living among other affluent families with an excellent school system supported by local property taxes and parents who will vote in improvements to school budgets. The other option is private education.

I taught in an urban system, later one in a working/lower middle class township, then in a very affluent suburb. All in New Jersey and in the same county. The differences in staff, services and environment, curricula and enrichment were shocking. Parents with means demand and ensure that the schools their children attend provide quality education.

I read recently that half of Americans read at a sixth grade level or lower. Having taught sixth graders, I think that is too generous.

It’s up to Democrats to educate the public about this. But they’re terrible at messaging.

[quote] I wonder what Kevin Costner thinks of this.

I think it's pretty neat!

LOL at the dumb DLers high-fiving her.

You liberals are in the minority and are going to learn the hard way soon enough.

She is right and I don't even like Sharon Stone.

Too many Americans have their heads up their own ass.

It would do them some well to see how the rest of the world lives

She's absolutely ridiculous here. She sounds crazy as hell.

remember that famous scene in Basic Instinct? my p*ssy was stinkin somethin crazy!🤮

[quote]A 10. No question. Most of you fuckers here cannot claim that.

On the DL we ALL claim it.

She was the first big celebrity to open her mouth about the impending COVID lockdown, saying it was an opportunity to "take cooking lessons". She likes to believe she is an expert in politics as she is in medical matters, in reality, she is a big mess who probably needs her nappy cleaning out for her at the end of the day.
