Here in Pittsburgh a longstanding memorial to Pittsburgh native Stephen Foster was torn down because song lyrics he wrote in the 1850’s were suddenly deemed to be “racist”.
So yes, all of the Duke’s work could end up on the cutting room floor one day.
Wait a minute...the Duke said something about fags?
HOLY CRAP !!! Could you find a more spammy, pop-up laden cesspit of a web site?
Not a rhetorical question! You should be ashamed!!
You could go back an unearth any number of interviews done with celebrities, politicians, etc. and find all manner of things that would upset SJW of today.
The thing they never want to comprehend is that people are a product of their times, that was the prevailing thoughts at the time. Everything has to be looked at in revisionist thinking today and that is just not logical.
Destroy, destroy, destroy. That’s what the Leftists do..................
The fuse is on a slow burn to do just that no doubt.
*language warning*
Left wing homos don’t like the Duke.
Are they going to burn their 1980s Dire Straits albums, too?
Oh, and don’t forget Elton John’s “Texan Love Song” (1973). He must be a homophobe [sic].
The wife and I watch a lot of TCM. We often comment that this or that particular script could not be produced today. Somehow TCM has stayed below the SJW radar, but it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if the channel’s new owner, AT&T, pulled the plug on it one day.....
So without having to wade through all the Twitter garbage - what did he say exactly?
People today suffer from Recency illusion much more than they used to.
John Wayne was married to 2 Mexicans and Panamanian.
John Wayne was a cross dresser
Just around the corner...
Time to buy up the Duke’s cd’s at Walmart.
“SJW dug up an old John Wayne Playboy interview from 1971...”
And what was he doing with a Playboy before he found the article?
ping.
The left is now going through the past to find stuff that is offensive because apparently they’ve found themselves offended by everything in the present. Last year they were even bashing the King of the hippies John Lennon because they found a video of him of mocking crippled people. Even though it wasn’t directed to anyone specifically, just acting crippled is enough to offend the professionally offended.
John Wayne's not dead, he's frozen
And as soon as we find a cure for cancer
We're gonna thaw out the Duke and he's gonna be pretty pissed off
You know why
Have you ever taken a cold shower?
Well multiply that by 15 million times
That's how pissed off the Duke's gonna be!
I'm gonna get the Duke, and John Cassavetes
And Lee Marvin, and Sam Peckinpah, and a case of whiskey
And drive down to Texas
Looks like John Lennon will soon be in trouble again with his “Woman is the .......of The World.”
