...and tell me what you think:
Tim Allen says to be 'real careful' talking about Trump: 'This is like '30s Germany'
When I read it, I thought "Oh, no--Tim Allen is a #Never-Trumper comparing Trump to Hitler!"
Here's the Entertainment Fake-ly article:
"Tim Allen told Jimmy Kimmel Thursday that he likes to skirt “both sides” of politics as a comedian, but he compared discussions of Donald Trump to Germany in the 1930s.
“You’ve gotta be real careful around here,” he said on Jimmy Kimmel Live. “You get beat up if don’t believe what everybody believes.” Allen jokingly added, “This is like ’30s Germany. I don’t know what happened. If you’re not part of the group, ‘you know what we believe is right,’ I go, ‘Well, I might have a problem with that.'”
Allen had experienced a bit of backlash over his previous comments about Trump. “What I find odd in Hollywood is that they didn’t like Trump because he was a bully,” he told Megyn Kelly on Fox News. “But if you had any kind of inkling that you were for Trump, you got bullied for doing that. And it gets a little bit hypocritical to me.”
Allen continued his conversation with Kimmel by recalling his experience at Trump’s inauguration, which many celebrities did not attend and more still protested at the Women’s Marches around the globe. ..."
1.) "he compared discussions of Donald Trump to Germany in the 1930s."
No, he didn't. He compared the hysterical hectoring of the Hollywood Left to Germany in the 1930's.
2.) “You’ve gotta be real careful around here,” he said on Jimmy Kimmel Live. “You get beat up if don’t believe what everybody believes.” Allen jokingly added, “This is like ’30s Germany."
It's still not clear from the article, but Allen was speaking of Trump's opponents in Hollywood, not Trump. And he didn't say it "jokingly", either. Here's the actual quote:
"You get--in this town--I'm not kidding--You’ve gotta be real careful around here. You get beat up if don’t believe what everybody [in Hollywood] believes. This is like ’30s Germany. I don’t know what happened. If you’re not part of the group, you know, 'what we believe is right,’ I go, ‘Well, I might have a problem with that.'”
3. "Allen had experienced a bit of backlash over his previous comments about Trump."
Not a "bit of backlash". A lot of Leftist Hollywood backlash.
4. "Trump’s inauguration, which many celebrities did not attend and more still protested at the Women’s Marches around the globe. ..."
Just more gratutitous Agit-Prop unrelated to Tim Allen.
And that's how the Professional Liars do it, kidz.
They can lie and manipulate with quotes, photos, characterizations, emphasis, omission, commission, data, video, audio, scholarship, editing, statistics, phony groupings, bad history, planted evidence, planted speakers and a half-dozen other ways before breakfast.
I know the Game, but they even caught me for a moment. I'm sure many didn't investigate and went away with the false impression they wanted to create with their #FakeNews headline--that Allen compared Trump to Hitler, when the exact opposite is the truth: he was analogizing Trump's Hollywood opponents as kinda' Brownshirt-y.
If I said "The Media today are lying crap-weasels who would sell out their grandmothers to get Trump!", and the Propaganda Press was forced at gun-point to report it, it would read like this:
"Conservative Blogger Bemoans Family Breakdown and Dishonesty in Age of Trump"
Tim Allen: "I wish people would shop for news the way they do for eyeglasses." |
But they do.
