Right!! These are the same group that went along with the "COMMIES OH NO!!" 1950's black listing. Did that from their cradles and play pens, did they?

DUH? Everybody knows Hollywood is liberal.
I heard Fox News only gives TV shows to conservatives like Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee!!
I also heard Broadway has a gay agenda!

Well, that's obvious, because conservatism is pretty boring and conservatives tend to be boring people.

^^^That's why there are no conservative comedians that are truly funny. Ever watch that trainwreck on Faux News late at night or heard Dennis Miller lately (not that he ever was that funny)?

Lisa Simpson: "Ha, only one person in a million would find that funny."
Prof. Frink: "Yes, we call that the 'Dennis Miller ratio'".

Yeah, there might be some funny comedians, but I think that creative people are generally more liberal than conservative.

I'm speculating but I would bet if you looked into any highly skilled workforce you would find more liberals.

Creative people are more liberal because people with creative or intellectually stimulating jobs tend to have more job satisfaction. Working in a shitty blue collar job makes you bitter and resent your work, leading to irrational angst against imaginary welfare abuse and blind worship of big business because they dream of sitting in the big office themselves one day. Fox News preys upon these people with their sensationalist reporting, luring them into the conservative movement.
That's why scientists, software developers, artists, actors etc. are almost universally liberal, and your average farmer or factory worker is a raging conservative (even if the modern conservative movement is directly opposed to their self interests as members of the working class)
Maybe. I think that centers of technology innovation are generally in more liberal areas as well, say SF Bay Area, NYC, and Boston being the three largest areas for VC funding. Creative and entrepreneur types probably don't want to go to a more conservative area.
Basically, conservative areas probably can't develop innovation and creativity, be it in acting with films and tv shows or technology such as biotech, internet companies, semiconductor corporations, etc.
Maybe they're OK for things like oil, mining, manufacturing, farming, etc., basically more mature industry.

Sure look like they want to be entertained.

But we're not supposed to discriminate against people just because they discriminate.
Well Hollywood is the biggest pusher of racial stereotypes in popular media. I think this is just par on course with what I already knew about Hollywood and liberals in general.

He's really a political satirist, more than a comedian. He's good at that, but I don't think he'd work at doing stand-up.
I'm shocked Ben Shapiro didn't notice that hollywood is dominated by jews. Maybe hollywood needs some type of affirmative action for christians?
I work in a highly skilled industry and I have found that the majority of us are far to smart to label ourselves either way. Typically the lower skilled people like to pick a side because they don't think independently.
Myself for example. Socially I am liberal, I think anyone can marry anyone they want, I think drugs should be legal, I think people have the right to live their lives as they see fit.
Fiscally I am conservative. We just gave Egypt 2,000,000,000.00 for no damn reason. WTF?
So are you refuting that Hollywood liberal execs aren't racist fucks who've pushed racial stereotypes and have consistently type cast minorities for decades?

No damn reason? We own their military. The reason why they didnt have civil war there is that fact. Seems like a good use of 2 billion.
Social liberal fiscal conservative sounds wonderful on paper but they dont exist in the public forum.
This person's post is why we don't pick sides. You can't associate with this level of stupid.
