Viola Davis’s Oscar politics commented on “the only profession celebrating what it means to live a life”
Yesterday, I praised Viola Davis’s speech for Oscar for it without being politically unforgettable. Twitter quickly let me know something. On social media and conservative news sites, Davis’s speech actually led to anger.
After explaining that his task thought that he thought that he was the stories of the people who dream of great and seeing these dreams to fruit these dreams, Davis said: Davis said:
I became an artist – and thank goodness that I did – because we are the only profession to celebrate what it means to live a life.
This claim became one of the debate elements of the right -wing internet after the Oscar ceremony. “Art is great; art enriching; art can connect us with each other,” he writes. from Daily wire. “But it is a surprising arrogance to indicate that the artists are the only profession that celebrates what a life means to live a life. What do you say to doctors?
The variants of this idea were rearranged online, Davis said that sometimes only “actors” celebrates what it means to live a life, or even worse, it knew what it means to live a life.
Are people the right to be disturbed? Did the artists say they were better than anyone else? It is difficult to read his words in full sense, in the context of his speech and to expand the slightest benefit of suspicion, to see back to Davis as something other than a symptom of our exaggerated cultural wars.
Everyone can celebrate “what it means to live a life in their own personal means, but who is the primary function of their profession? Absolutely artists. The clergy, maybe. Doctor register Instead of celebrating them, he lives and cannot humiliate them to say it. Staying home parents help Others and Davis may admit that this is more noble, important and necessary than “celebrating” the meaning of life.
His aim was that artists played a unique role in telling stories about human experience, and he was pleased that he was part of it.
Certainly, even though it was undisputed less interesting, he could have arranged himself to do something less controversial.– expression. Simply, “I became an artist – and thank God – because we congratulate what it means to live a life,” it would have been more difficult for the complaints to come. “Only” emphasizes a certain way of being special, but is also a dog for everyone who has a strong anger in Hollywood Elitism and scorn. And it was a better time to publish such anger than this anchor.
On the right, reflexive disgust Donald Donald Trump for the entertainment industry. During Fox and friends After OscarSnafu La La Land It was mistakenly announced by Steve Doocy as “Hollywood choice wrong and misunderstood Hollywood Oscars last night”. Guest Tucker Carlson accepted but added Moonlight “He has to win” because the moral, politically correct organization wanted this. Yes, the Oscars were both a disaster and insidiously fraudulent game.
Donald Trump commented on the screw of the academy: “I think they focused so much on politics that they couldn’t act together.” Breitbartas if PricewaterhouseCoopers accountant Warren Beatty wrong envelope He did this because Kimmel’s President “UP?”
The liberals groaned in Trump by taking credit for critics who made a logistics mistake. However, of course, both sides see many policies in the entertainment area these days: All purchases To make like Doocy and compare the end of the Oscars with the election night.
For many viewers on Sunday, Davis’s speech seemed remarkable because he spoke passionately about how he almost overcome his Partizan struggle and his passionately about acting. But a word-“only”-for her cultural war was enough to do Turnusol test. Perhaps he wanted to choose a fight about the place of art in society, or perhaps depicting his profession as he really saw. In both cases, artists were a movement that challenged the same standards as the candidates for the office: he is expected to choose his words for politics, not for the truth.
