Cancelation of Clint Eastwood Is Canceled
At age 91, Clint Eastwood may be the last remnant of a Hollywood that reflected American culture rather than trying to replace it with a contrived culture more to the taste of moonbats. The liberal mob has inevitably demanded that he be canceled.
The thought police excavated an ideological infraction from an awards show that took place half a century ago. Via Fox News:
The clip in question comes from the 1973 Academy Awards in which actor Marlon Brando famously refused to accept his award for best actor in “The Godfather” and instead sent a Native American activist on stage to lament Hollywood’s treatment of American Indians by the film industry.
“I’m representing Marlon Brando this evening, and he has asked me to tell you, in a very long speech — which I cannot share with you presently because of time, but I will be glad to share with the press afterwards — that he very regretfully cannot accept this very generous award,” the activist, Sacheen Littlefeather, said on the podium. “And the reasons for this being are the treatment of American Indians today by the film industry, and on television in movie reruns, and also with recent happenings at Wounded Knee.”
Eastwood had been starring in some excellent Westerns. Before giving out the award, he made a harmless joke in reference to Littlefeather’s moonbattery:
“I don’t know if I should present this award, on behalf of all the cowboys shot in all the John Ford Westerns over the years.”
In light of the remark, this Hollywood icon ought to be erased from movie history, according to progressive activist Rafael Shimunov, who denounces Eastwood as racist.

For once the mob might not get its way:
The campaign against Eastwood appears to have fizzled out with many of the commenters on the thread defending the 91-year-old “Cry Macho” director.
Sooner or later, the worm will turn. A few will show courage, then a few more. Before long, the cancel mob will find itself canceled.
