If Celebs Drive You Nuts Over Their Activism, You Can Always Boycott Them

With all the rather sobering and extensive details coming out of Minnesota these days, it can be a bit overwhelming to take in. The sheer amount of corruption, sleaze, and evil is beyond imagination. The dollar figures for the potential extent of the corruption waffle back and forth from billions to a trillion. The numbers of fraudulent storefront businesses, daycares, Medicaid consultants, and healthcare agencies are through the roof. And now the complexity of the networks of bought-and-paid for activism attacking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers is pouring out like water from a fire hydrant.

While the Trump administration and the federal government try to work all that out, you and I can consider what we can do. A good starting point that is and old-fashioned “boycott.” Yes, you and I can decide what to watch, whom to support, what to buy, where to buy – or not. Chances are pretty good we're already boycotting a good number of woke celebs and didn't even know it.

With that in mind, I took a quick trip through the X platform to identify some prize candidates. Let’s start with the WNBA, always a good place not to spend your money. Did you know WNBA player Breanna Stewart wants to abolish ICE? Actually, did you even know there was a WNBA player named Breanna Stewart? 

Jumping on over to the NBA, let’s hear from Stephen Curry on the protests against ICE, which he described as “beautiful.” 

Of course, we have to go to Hollywood, and the list to boycott there over their anti-ICE attacks is close to universal in scope. So, we need to narrow it down here for our purposes. Matt Damon tops the list for his almost compulsory comparisons between ICE officers and “brownshirts.”

And while you may not have seen an Ed Norton movie recently, or perhaps ever, I’m including him on our list to boycott because he’s calling for a “national economic strike” over ICE. As Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson likes to say, “I don’t understand.” What do you boycott if you’re mad at ICE? The vending machines at my local Social Security office or the VA?  Or, does this rich Hollywood pretender want us peasants to just not spend any money at all? 

I wonder how many illegals surround these celebrities to take care of their every whim for less than minimum wage.

You probably thought you were gonna get out of here without a lecture from Glenn Close. Well, you were wrong.

Actress Natalie Portman, who is free to make a lot of money and speak her mind, seems to feel that living in the U.S. is akin to living in any “totalitarian” country. Which is weird, because in totalitarian countries you can't speak your mind, and usually you can't make much money. To be sure, you probably didn’t know this, but the country where she lives, America, is the “worst of humanity.” 

I wonder if she’d like to move to Cuba or China. 

Last but not least is Mark Ruffalo, who never met an anti-American cause he couldn’t pretend to lead. Give him a pin, a sign, and a microphone and just tell him where to show up in his Fidel Castro line from the wardrobe department. 

We’ll stop here because there’s only so many celebrities you and I can take in a day. I’ve reached my limit, but sadly, there are many, many more. If you really want to boycott celebrities over ICE, then maybe it’s time to take an interest in NASCAR or cigars or the shooting range. I almost said country music, but even that is dicey these days if you’re looking to avoid wokeness.

The worst part about all of this is that you know none of them mean it. If celebrities couldn’t have double standards, they’d have no standards at all. Okay, you got me. They really don't have standards.
