Who Dat?

By Gldmeier @gldmeier
Somebody Jewish won a prize at the Oscars for making a good movie and he said something about being Jewish and criticized Israel.
While I have seen a lot of criticism of him and what he said, I really have no opinion. I dont know who he is, I dont remember his name, I dont know what he said, I didnt watch the video of his speech and I didnt watch the Oscars. I simply dont care. Thats how irrelevant he is to me, just as I am sure I am irrelevant in his eyes.
Stop propping up the actors and producers of movies as if they have some inherent level of importance more than anyone else and that their opinions hold weight. They are entertainers. Their opinions are just that - their opinions. I dont have to care what they think about politics, about Israel, about Judiasm, about anything else. Same for athletes and other celebrities.
