It's time Hollywood gave up its love affair with communism.
Here is an essay by Bridget Johnson which is still worth reading if you have not yet read it. The question which she asks is why Hollywood has not made more films dealing with the brutality of communist oppression. The answer is that Hollywood admires communism and thinks communists are fabulous. Never mind that communist regimes around the world have been responsible for at least 100 million deaths. No, they had "good intentions" and so such statistics have no meaning to the Hollywood elites as they chow down on their catered lunches. And we don't need to worry about all of those gulags, work camps and cultural revolutions resulting in mass graves, starvation and torture. Nothing to see here; just move on.
