It was hilarious to see the reaction of those snobby out of touch douchebags get hit with actual comedy and reality. The reactions I saw from the clips available seemed like about 50/50 gasps/groans and applause/laughter.
It's crazy to think that 15 years ago that would have just been a normal thing, and now it's 'so outrageous' to people. Twitter is trying to bury his name despite me getting on and finding out about it because EVERYONE was talking about it.
And 15 years ago, it would have been the Christian right clutching their pearls and worrying about sensorship. It's just wild how much you see the pendulum of society swing back and forth over the course of just one life.

Just watched it in YouTube... the last 3 minutes was fucking great. Fuck those smug pricks, glad someone like him did that on national tv.

My normal response would be that I stopped watching any award shows like that 10+ years ago. However, I did have to look it up today and watch. That was a solid torching. (The monologue and the Weinstein burn in the middle that is, not the whole show of course)

Gervais is no doubt as leftist as all those grimacing fuckboys I don't know, he's British. I don't know all that much about him other than he's respected in the comedy world. I don't doubt he isn't a white supremacist, but if that's the gate for 'leftists' now....

I don’t know if leftist is really an accurate way of describing the Hollywood elites. I think they are more clueless, greedy, hypocritical panderers. Sure they push ideologies more in line with the left then the right, but they are so oblivious to the real world and how things actually work, it’s probably unfair to associate them with regular democrats.

Nah Hollywood royalty is fucking Soviet communist left. George Clooney’s whole family and family friends were hard corps communists. Sean Penn’s dad Leo Penn was a blacklisted commie. IMO the gatekeepers to Hollywood demand fealty to the left from any aspiring actor, director, etc.

These actors are the most hard core environmentalists around, yet they all just flew in private jets, and took limos to the Golden Globes so they can sit around and give themselves a round of applause. They don't for a minute believe or even understand what they preach.
