Sure they are. Lizzo and J-Lo.\nSomething called a Bieber and a Britney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Who are these beautiful people? Why are\nthey scantily clad in nature living the high life and showing us\nthis? Why are some of them getting 2.5 million likes on their posts?\nWho are the people liking this? \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I just heard that certain celebrities\nare going to post videos or go Zoom or whatever to honor the class of\n2020. What did they do before Corona for graduating seniors? Nothing.\nI am so sick of this country trying to enact social change via\ncelebrities. Yes, Harry Belafonte and Ali and others were prominent\nin the Civil Rights era, the marches and such, really putting their\nasses on the line. But they weren’t the leaders, they didn’t show\nthemselves in skimpy outfits or in their garish mansions or drinking\nchampagne on their yachts, and we didn’t look to them as oracles.\nThey largely remained silent, well not Ali, but he was special. I\nreally don’t know what has happened to us. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new headline on Yahoo News, right\nafter the one about we just passed 65,000 Corona Virus deaths, read:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nThe\ncomments were blistering. There is hope in that, I guess. But there\nwere also a half million views and as many likes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nAnother\nheadline read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don’t know who this person is. I\ndon’t know what this headline means. I don’t go looking for these\nheadlines. They just appears on my screen as I try to find news and\ncommentary. I will say whoever this person is had been disfigured by\nplastic surgery, her face that is. I didn’t see the butt selfie. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Am I starting to lose my mind? I don’t\nthink so. Others are, for sure. \n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
