Blind Item #7 - They Did It For The Coke And The Women

This triumvirate of celebrity all have a certain thing in common. Well, they did have one thing in common. A love of a South American country. Apparently that love does not extend to now because the person who was in charge is no longer in power. So, their response has been silence. In the past they were all about supporting the regime. No one really could ever understand it. Well, I will tell you now why they did. The first of our three is a permanent A list mostly movie actor who is an Academy Award winner/nominee. He and this former A list mostly movie actor turned B lister would have coke supplied to them for free the entire time they were in the country and it came courtesy of the government. In exchange for selling out, they were given massive parties with as many drugs and women as they wanted. Speaking of women, this A list mostly movie director is the third of our celebrities. He was not interested in the drugs but he was interested in the women. The government would supply him with upwards of 20 women for a three or four day trip and he loved it. One person I haven't listed here is a foreign born permanent A list model who supported the government because many of her highest paying clients made their money thanks to the largess of the government.

  11. Oh that Penn......the guy who praised socialist Venezuela.....

    For the ignorant peasants : Venezuela is a socialist country, where people have to queue for 5 hours to get 1 roll of toilet paper (if they're lucky) and wait an entire day for 1kg of rice which is distributed per household, each month (if you're lucky)..
    There is no money, no food, no pharmaceuticals, and whoever protests, gets arrested and beaten if lucky, if not tortured and killed. Child prostitution is very popular, because if you wanna eat my child, you better go suck some dick. That gringo man Sean Penn who loves our country, I bet his dick tastes good...he's also friend with the man who had your father, brother, uncle and other uncle killed, but who's counting, ey?

    This is socialism . The political system that has NEVER EVER worked anywhere in the world, ever. EVER.
    And which these sub literate, undereducated high school drop outs, & drug addicts, praise.

    Because you know who's dumber than the average Hollywood actor?
    The average clueless troglodytic 'progressive' who listens to him.

    p.s.: my favourite ignorant American socialist is Bernie though. It takes an admirable level of mental acrobatics to speak about the lovely effects of socialism, while driving one of your $350,000 Ferrari's, and still keep a straight face.

    That's for you to prove, not us to deny. Ball is in your court, dear, to prove that everyone with three homes has at least three cars. It's going to be time consuming, but I'm sure you are up for the task.

  23. "What precisely excludes a socialist from having three homes, specifically."

    Socialists by definition are for the government distribution of assets, equitably. So it doesn't seem consistent that Bernie as a socialist would own three homes. But he does.

    Replies
    1. @Do tell: no, not all varieties of socialism espouse the redistribution of assets via the government.
      Bernie Sanders (just in case I get accused of confusing him with an F1 supremo, disgraced financier, or my old maths teacher) supports a very broad version, which still encourages free trade, strong business (but not unregulated).

  27. China has become a super power, is because it's moved away from pure socialism, and more towards capitalism . "

    China was COMMUNIST and is still communist in its economic systems. It values its currency exactly like a communist country and inhibits wealth through draconian means, willy nilly, as it still nationalizes industries whenever it feels like.

    "The countries you have listed have some small socialist structures when it comes to welfare, but they are all capitalist countries first and foremost. "

    Socialism does not negate capitalism.

    "Socialism kills people, countries, ideas and innovations. It's glorified parasitism. "

    So does Capitalism as it did in Iraq, Honduras, Columbia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Argentina, Chile, Bhopal... What's your point?

    " HITLER WAS A SOCIALIST "

    No, he was a Fascist. That means that only the chosen few could benefit from the rights of citizenry or the social safety net. Only select groups, in this case of racial purity, could vote, contribute or be treated as equals under government. Everyone else was a slave, basically, or dirty, or undesirable and disposable. That is not socialism, and everyone who knows anything about political systems (ie NOT you) knows that.

    We sometimes have movies film here in my town. I remember being in the hotel's fitness center minding my own biz like I usually do, while he (Danny Glover) was working out. Some ladies were fans and excited to see him. They begged and pleaded with him for a photo and he said,"Ma'am, I have a very tight schedule for working out and I really don't have time to do a photo." They kept pestering him until he gave in. LOL, they could have cared less about his problems.

    @boredatwork, as the child of people who fled Vietnam, I understand your point. It looks like everyone is arguing past each other because from an academic perspective, Venezuela under Chavez was not really "socialism." He co-opted the label to disguise his totalitarian ambitions. Socialism is an economic theory, it does not justify consolidating power or murdering political opponents. The latter is Dictator 101.

    SOCIALIST WORKERS PARTY

    Btw, I lived in Italy for a few years and speak fluent Italian, when I frequented uni there, so don't start telling me what fascism is all about, you village idiot.

    I'm not gonna get into it too deep, because you won't understand anyway, you don't have the mental capacity to absorb information, but basically fascism and socialism are both sides of the same exact coin: Fascism IS indeed a type of socialism! Both put the state ahead of the individual. Both see the ends as justifying the means. Both Nazis (fascists) and Communists give absolute power to the state - not the people. In HItler's Germany capitalism was the enemy of the people - just like in Stalin's Russia.

    Anyway, I'm sure your tiny brain got misty after 'capacity'. You can google this shite yourself and READ BOOKS I have to go to dinner now.

    One would have to be historically dense not to know Nazis=National Socialist. But their ideology was not left wing. Socialism was used as a mechanism to take ownership of private banking and manufacturing interests back into the hands of “real” Germans.

  58. To be fair, there is a lot of confusion around communism vs. socialism & even Marx used the terms interchangeable in early writings.

    plot is correct about fascism & socialism (& communism) theoretically being mutually exclusive. Fascism by definition, opposes egalitarianism. Socialism & Communism, to a larger extent, advocate communal ownership of property because of the belief of full equality amongst individuals (See Sir Thomas More's Utopia). However, when the radical version of these theories are implemented in practice, they lead to nothing but misery for the average person-which is why many people conflate these theories. I don't think it's a good idea to have blind dedication to any of these systems, including capitalism (See Upton Sinclair's The Jungle and that smog cloud over LA in 1970's & 80's).

    Marx wrote that Socialism leads to Communism...except in real world examples that has proven to not be the case; not even once.

    "Sweden, France, Germany, Netherlands aren't socialist yet,"

    They've all been more or less socialist for decades.

    People have been claiming that for decades, yet France stands.

    "People are always running from Socialist countries to Capitalist countries, never the opposite. "

    1. I never read it, but his policies worked. If he didn't try to take over the world and start rounding people up so he could confiscate their assets, Germany probably would have been fine. As it is, he wound up being the catalyst for the America to run the world. Like they say, from the ashes grow empires.

  80. Alexandria Anna - what a revelation you are. Spot on on all accounts. Your last comment will not go down well with the crowd here though, who know nothing about Europe, most of whom have never been, but who all have strong opinions, formed by their relentless leftist propaganda machinery, they call 'news'.

    When I lived in Italy as a student and the EU was forming, I worked for a Russian photographer part time.
    I asked him what he thought of of it, and he said:' it will all end in bloodshed and tears my dear, because Europeans are trying to re-created the Soviet Union, ignoring the fact that the Soviet Union collapsed for a reason.'

    I travel to France regularly for business, the way Paris has changed in particular, breaks my heart.
    Quelle damage, mon Dieu. Everytime I go it seems more and more dangerous and lawless.
    Mind you, not that London is any better.

    Anyway, I also want to stop talking about this, just wanted to let you know how refreshing it is to read your comments.

    1. It sounds like a very sad world the two of you live in. I’m glad it’s not mine

  83. Alexandria, stay safe I know exactly what you are talking about, last time on Champs Elysees I saw police with AK47 machine guns patrolling; apparently the new normal.
    And ignore those who know nothing and go nowhere, they do not live in reality. A bit like these celebrities who don't live in the real world.
    It's a mental illness. They put their fingers in their ears and go "lalalalala I can't hear you lalalalala it's not true lalalalala stop talking lalalala' and then one day, it's too late. Their fingers are cut off and they wonder what the fuck just happened.

    1. I too read books @bored. Have all my life. Try to limit myself to 1 a week - adult learning theory, absorption etc. I’ve actually lived overseas several times - 9 years in the last stint, and when I was a kid we lived in Taiwan during the Clinton era so I know what it’s like to have weekly air raid drills at a very young age. Talk all you want about how scary the world is - my choice to focus on the good is not ignorance has gotten me and and plenty of intelligent people this far. Fear mongering and negative politics only work for so long and only for those who can’t remember how badly it went last time around.

  84. The one thing you can count on with socialism: it's only socialism as long as it works. When it doesn't work, it wasn't real socialism.

  85. "there is many similarities beteween Hitler's politics and European Union politics"

    Oh do please give us some back up, real sources, for this lovely observation of yours, personally.

    "The USSR was as close to real socialism as country ever go"

    Nope. It was Communist. And with your inability to know the difference, your credibility is shot.

  86. "only someone who lives in Europe and sees it all everyday can realise it."

    Some of us have lived in Europe, in multiple countries in fact, yet no immigrant physically accosted us as you claim nor made living there in any way threatening on a daily basis, or weekly basis, or even a yearly basis.

    The threat of random gun violence in the USA, perpetrated by home grown idiots, is actually quite a bit worse, both personally and statistically.

  87. "When I lived in Italy as a student and the EU was forming"

    No one cares. Do you have this on a copy/pasta loop?


    "I travel to France regularly for business"


    Who cares. I'm sure you do.

  89. "what makes USSR a communist country? "

    The fact that is what they called themselves.

    "you don't know"

    I do know that your chances of dying or being injured in the USA (with our casual gun violence and drunk driving) are many times greater than any threats present in Europe.

    I have no idea how you are tying Hitler with immigrants there, but you do seem confused.

  91. Well, this shows how coke can easily leads to politics :-D
    As someone who lived part time of life in communism and part time in capitalism, I cant say, which one is worse lol...depends on country, historical background, mentality, resources, HUMAN NATURE...Without moral compass of the leaders, both can turn into the dictature. Remember "DIVIDE ET IMPERA". While you are arguing, someone on the top of the pyramid is satisfied. Maybe he invented both political systems.

  93. For those interested in the history and academics, specifically of post-War Social Democracy vs Communism, I’m reading a fascinating article in the October 2017 edition of the BBC History Magazine (has some other interesting articles such as the Templars, Black Power in 1960s Britain, Queen Mathilda vs Empress Maud...some more “breathless” than others).
    It’s titled “Attlee’s secret war with Stalin”, and is written in plain English. Although the architect for Britain’s post-War socially-driven society (foundation of the NHS etc), he was a strong anti-Communist.

    Snippet below but it can be read via subscription to BBC History, Scribd or Zinio which I use via my local library.

  100. wow, boredatawork... German speaking here, a country run by socialists btw (EXEPT during that hitler-time).. you really are one of the most birdbrained people out there. i can hardly believe you are british, I think you are american and one of the reasons why your country had to choose between the lesser evil in the last election. shame on you

    "i can hardly believe you are british, I think you are american"

    I do too. The dropping of a few stereotypical phrases that Americans THINK sound British was a dead giveaway.
