Acting is pretense and lying..."Celebs slammed for 'cringey' PSA about white privilege"

https://pagesix.com/2020/06/11/celebs-slammed-for-cringe-psa-about-white-
privilege/

Is this Gal Gadot’s “Imagine” 2.0?

A new celebrity-studded PSA for the “I Take Responsibility” campaign — 
featuring “influential voices from the white community [taking] 
responsibility for turning the racist tide in America” — is getting 
criticized online for its overly dramatic delivery and for stars “making 
this about” themselves.

The black-and-white video starts out with stars like Sarah Paulson, Aaron 
Paul, Kesha, Justin Theroux, Debra Messing, Bryce Dallas Howard, and more 
solemnly staring at the camera and saying, “I take responsibility,” 
followed by a time they may have ignored racial injustice.

Julianne Moore tweeted the video and added, “Today, #ITakeResponsibility 
for my role in eradicating racism in America. Unless white America 
acknowledges its privilege, systemic racism will persist. Act Now. What 
will you commit to?”

In some instances, it was evident that the actors were reading from a 
script, like when Stanley Tucci said, “I will no longer allow an unchecked 
moment. I will no longer allow racist hurtful words, jokes, stereotypes, 
no matter how big or small, to be uttered in my presence.”

While some fans praised the actors for their message, others said the 2-
minute clip missed the mark.

One person commented online, “No matter how well-intentioned, they always 
fall back on performative nonsense. They have this insatiable need to come 
out ‘good’ and righteous in every situation.”

Another added, “How do celebs keep messing this up so badly? Stop making 
this about yourself and donate $1 million each to a local organization 
helping Black people!!!!!”

Marlow Stern of The Daily Beast quipped, “Ending Racism: The Musical.” The 
tweet has more than 8,000 likes.

Many users singled out Paul, 40, claiming his tone at the end of the clip 
reminded them of his “Breaking Bad” character Jesse Pinkman.

“I thought Aaron Paul was going to shout out ‘yeah bitch!'” one person 
joked.

People also remarked that the video was reminiscent of Gadot’s “Imagine” 
montage during the coronavirus outbreak, which also sparked outrage.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in 
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016.  The clown car 
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump 
truck.

Congratulations President Trump.  Thank you for cleaning up the disaster 
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.

President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration, 
appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

Senile loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi got "Trumped" on February
