Rita Panahi: Why celebrities who aren’t Lefties better keep quiet
Celebs spouting far Left nonsense can be as radical, inaccurate and divisive as they like without copping a barrage of bad press or being black-listed.
If you’re a celebrity, then you better be a Leftie or be quiet. Any high-profile individuals, whether they be actors, sports stars, models, musicians or TV presenters, who stray from Leftist orthodoxy now risk being attacked, ostracised and ultimately cancelled.
A new McCarthyism is here and challenging the groupthink can be career suicide.
Celebs spouting far Left nonsense can be as radical, inaccurate and divisive as they like without copping a barrage of bad press or being black-listed. Just check out Pat Cash, Shane Jacobson or Jimmy Barnes’ views on Australia Day.
But if a high-profile artist utters a single centre-right opinion, no matter how mainstream and reasonable, they are mercilessly attacked by the media and have all sorts of campaigns launched against them by the activist class. It takes enormous courage to take a stand against the hate-filled mob.
It’s not just conservatives who are reluctant to voice their views but centrists and non-political individuals who have an opinion that offends the perpetually offended Left.

Seems to be.
Time the Right got its own media, its own campaign-launching 'activist class', and hate-filled mob...and fought back, very hard.
Trouble at present is that the people in the Right are far too nice, far too well-mannered, and far too fair.
Time they got nasty. [legally of course].
