We the people love Ricky Gervais.
It all started last month when Gervais scorched Hollywood elites at the Golden Globes for constantly shoving their far-left political views down the publics’ throats.
.@rickygervais: If u "win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to make a political speech you’re in no position to lecture the public abt anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than @GretaThunberg.”pic.twitter.com/0YP6ISx2UR

Then, of course, Ricky Gervais took down smug liberal elites ahead of last night’s Oscars with this scathing message.
“I can’t wait to hear all your inspirational speeches about equality, and it’s great that the 3 hours you’re here tonight is the only time your badly paid migrant house staff will get some time off to sleep this week” https://t.co/fsFbdDkv6u

So did these liberal actors heed Gervais’ words and refrain from nauseating political messages?
Of course not.
But Gervais hit back at the privileged Hollywood elite with a warning that will hopefully shut them up for a few hours.
I have nothing against the most famous people in the world using their privileged, global platform to tell the world what they believe. I even agree with most of it. I just tried to warn them that when they lecture everyday, hard working people, it has the opposite effect. Peace.

It’s a shame there aren’t more actors in Hollywood like Gervais.
If there were, the Oscars would definitely get better ratings.
