Last night the 96th Academy Awards took place; you may have missed it. Viewership for the Oscars has plummeted in the last decade, from 40 million in 2014 to less than 11 million in 2021.
This is probably part of why. Jonathan Glazer's 'The Zone of Interest' won for Best International Feature and the director couldn't resist condemning the 'occupation' of Gaza in his acceptance speech.

Total mystery as to why people don't watch this.
But the reaction on Twitter/X was big, and not in Glazer's favor:
Jonathan Glazer made a movie about a man who builds his own professional success on his ability to ignore the suffering of the Jews around him.

The man is immune to irony.
And, yes, 'The Zone of Interest' is about a man who lives near a Nazi concentration camp and hears the atrocities taking place.
In Jonathan Glazer's "Zone of Interest," you don't see one Jew. Those are the best Jews, according to Glazer: the faceless victims screaming in the distance. Ironically, he's the villain: picking up awards from the bodies of those anonymous dead Jews while ignoring the living…

This is accurate. Harsh, but accurate.
Jonathan Glazer is not a Kapo.

The Kapos had to choose between being killed or taking orders from Nazis.
Glazer lives a very comfortable life and his safety is not at risk.
He’s doing it only for personal gain. pic.twitter.com/1iVOatSVPI
It's very easy to make these statements when Hamas isn't actively trying to kill you.
Jonathan Glazer is a kapo scum that took advantage of our holocaust to make money but learned nothing from it. It's a joke that he calls himself a Jew; he is Jew like pork is Kosher. Hollywood is a disgrace. https://t.co/yTYO6oEoca

Leftism is rampant in Hollywood.
Translation for the disgraceful speech by "The Jew" Jonathan Glazer at the Oscars last night: "How dare you Jews fight back against the good people who burned your babies, raped your girls and slaughtered many of you medieval style, you should die on your knees like a good weak…

Yep.
What a disgusting, morally obscene and self loathing speech at the #Oscars by Jonathan Glazer!pic.twitter.com/AYnN01uOuB

Very much so.
Memo for Jonathan Glazer

This is how to give a speech after winning an Oscar for a Holocaust film pic.twitter.com/cMrbS00BQV
This is how it's done.
Can you imagine a person of any other faith or ethnicity renounce their identity and be applauded at the Oscars?
— Aviva Klompas (@AvivaKlompas) March 11, 2024
That’s the price Jews think they have to pay to fit in. Thousands of Jewish kids were taught a terrible lesson last night.
To Jonathan Glazer and all those kids -…
It was a terrible lesson.

Okay, we laughed.
Jonathan Glazer’s true achievement tonight may be uniting every Jew in my timeline, from political left to right, against him.
— Melissa Braunstein (@slowhoneybee) March 11, 2024
Two Jews, one opinion.
The silver lining here.
Jonathan Glazer, kapo par excellence.
— Josh Hammer (@josh_hammer) March 11, 2024
Gai kaken ofn yahm, you loathsome weasel.
'Loathsome weasel' is about right.
Jonathan Glazer - you hijacked the Oscars for your naive, selfish and vile narrative blaming the victim. Gaza was not occupied on October 7 when Hamas savages butchered your brothers and sisters. Shame on you. pic.twitter.com/VmRq6REOOR

If he's capable of feeling shame.
