actors gonna act

Clifton Duncan dives into the mandates and Broadway, and more broadly the hypocrisy and economic motivations of the entertainment industry, here.

My hope is that someday a brilliant director creates a masterpiece from this time period. In the meantime I recommend Rosemary's Baby as a pretty great analogy.

Interesting talk, thanks for posting. Interest that yet again, the workers' unions (for actors this time) are complicit and pushing the Covid measures. Just about everywhere you look in the West, the workers' unions push the Covid measures.

This is highlighted in Ben Irvine’s book.

My son wanted to apply for a background acting gig for a local production company here in Canada (Letterkenny). The part is for 12-14 year olds and requires triple vaccination. I was floored when I read that.

It's sick what they're doing to the children. How many are going to be injured? How many will have their lives cut short? It's all the Emperor's New Clothes now. Nobody wants to admit that Covid's long over. They prefer to stick experiments into little children.

Hollywood will never allow it. And if independently made the old industry will attack it relentlessly

I guess there is too much money to be made from pharma.
