Seems the Left has found their poster girl in Oprah.
Then again, she’s been making noise politically for years (remember she played a YUGE part in helping get Obama elected), but for the first time, our sparkly unicorn friends on the Left are openly talking about ‘the Oprah’ as president.
Because she spoke her truth and stuff.

But what if your truth is just a bunch of BS?
Asking for a friend. *eye roll*
Dana Loesch had the same reaction we did, she just put is much more eloquently.
Oprah isn’t the first to use “your/my truth” nor will she be the last but is it such an annoying phrase. Truth doesn’t change from person to person. https://t.co/i7HJ8VNpBR

This notion that truth can change depending on the person who is telling it is what happened to journalism in this country. Granted, each person has their own STORY, and we think that’s what Oprah is trying to say, but using the words ‘own truth’ is seriously misleading and even damaging.
It’s weird to see you celebrate her speech on Weinstein behavior in Hollywood when you basically spiked @RonanFarrow ’s stories that brought it all about and he had to air them elsewhere and pay for a camera crew himself. https://t.co/9I0iyYCO8J

Almost as weird as watching a bunch of Hollywood elites pretending that wearing black somehow makes up for the years and years they spent doing nothing about the many, many predators in their ranks.
That they knew about.
The Golden Globes looked like a funeral, and no, the irony was not lost on us.
Seriously though, I hope the “new day” Oprah proclaimed means that women (more powerful ones especially) in Hollywood won’t ignore predation and all will ban together to drum out Weinstein types and not just leave it at wearing black dresses.

Wouldn’t count on it.
