The Lie That Snagged Me: Wealthy ‘Austin Powers’ Actor Mike Myers Loves Socialism and Fights Fascism

Actor Mike Myers may play ‘The International Man of Mystery,’ but his politics are no longer in doubt. The white-haired Austin Powers star is ‘fighting the power,' or so he believes. On Friday, Myers was spotted wearing a ‘Fight Fascism’ T-shirt at a concert by The Strokes in Queens. The shirt featured a red raised fist, a symbol of socialism and communism. Socialists Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were there to introduce the rock band. Preaching socialism to the crowd, of course.

That’s implied by the T-shirt's front.

Posters say Myers is as dense as Shrek. He’s the real monster.

Isn’t that how it always works?

Commenters say Myers suffers from the doppelgänger effect that makes it easy to separate lefty men and women from sane ones.

Mark Cuban, Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Keith Olbermann… the list goes on and on.

Myers’ schwing to socialism seems out of character for a thespian who’s made his millions through capitalism.

Millionaires are okay in Bernie’s book since he became one. Both Sanders and Myers are ‘millionaires for socialism.’ They should put that on a T-shirt.
