  1. > “America is built on Puritans, religious fanatics and criminals,” she said from the stage of the French Cinematheque on Tuesday. “[And] you’re kind of seeing [as much] in our election right now.”

    > “Sexuality is always taboo,” she continued. “And there’s a lot of fear in America around the body. That’s something I’ve never understood or related to. I’ve certainly stirred the pot in a few of the films I’ve chosen, which is partly because [I’ve never understood that fear] of the body. It never made sense why we can celebrate the body in art, but fear it in cinema.”

  2. With a chance to vote for a criminal with indictments awaiting to be tried, many Americans have asked for more. This is to be expected

  3. She isn’t wrong. The numbers are showing that right now.

  4. Yeah it’s a big reason why we are the worst. As always religion is the death of knowledge and growth because when you are certain you are incapable of change and growth.

  5. She’s not wrong but she missed a big one. Really stupid people.

  6. Yup, all those and don’t forget people who didn’t want to pay their taxes.

  7. Human beings are fucked up in general, in every nation, all genders, religions, across all social locations, we’re just a fucked up animal that learned how to speak and became aware of its own mortality. Fuck us, fuck the world 🌎

  8. People who are surprised by the election results must not worry about money. Too many Americans voted the way they did this time because they blame Biden and Harris for the horrible economy we keep being gaslit into believing is thriving.

  9. YES. **Thank God**. The rest of us (including you Demi) need all those dummies to pay us to entertain them and sing to them and make movies for them and sell them stuff they do not need.

  10. Imagine talking down to people sitting next to the fucking lamp in front of an 8ft portrait of yourself.

  11. I’m gonna watch Strip Tease this weekend. I actually thought it was pretty good…

  12. Demi gets it. Puritanical fervor, anti-women, anti-women’s bodies (unless men are getting busy with ’em), watch The Substance, her latest movie – very timely.

  13. Will someone let me know what ja rule has to say about this?
