Now is the time at SDA when we juxtapose!
Michael Moore;
Capitalism is an organized system to guarantee that greed becomes the primary force of our economic system and allows the few at the top to get very wealthy and has the rest of us riding around thinking we can be that way, too – if we just work hard enough, sell enough Tupperware and Amway products, we can get a pink Cadillac.
Michael Moore’s divorce papers;
Moore and Glynn jointly own “multiple substantial residences and multiple companies,” including Dog Eat Dog Films, the production company behind hit movies like “Roger & Me” and “Bowling for Columbine.” The couple’s real estate holdings include a total of nine properties in Michigan and New York. The duo co-owns a Manhattan condo that was created through the combination of three separate units.
Hayek or Moore? Will these tough choices never end?
Quite amazing how fat and ugly you can pack into one hypocrite.
Who is this “Michael Moore” of which you speak? Is he important? Can he be ignored?
Never thought of Michael Moore as any less of a hypocritical capitalist posing as a socialist; which makes him no different from the likes of Al Gore, James Cameron, David Suzuki, ect.
As one commenter posts on the second link, “I don’t care that he has money, I don’t care that he’s stupid and bad. I do care that fools listen to him and what those fools think matters.”
You can’t blame him or the other people listed that there are so many people who’s minds are so “open” that their brains spill out. I can though blame him and the others listed for being devious in their nature and causing such wide spread economic destruction of people’s lives.
Mike using the words “we” and “us” in that blurb is so laughable it isn’t funny. He has made a fortune off of propaganda and being a blatant dyck and now wants to tell us that even if we work hard we will never be successful. How does he explain his wealth or like Suzuki does he deny it.
Gee, another lying Lefty d-bag is discovered to have reamed his faithful followers for millions.
That happens about every week now. How stupid are these Lefties that they keep falling for the same exact scam decade after decade? We’re up to almost five generations of Lefty stupid.
Hereditary?
“… if we just work hard enough, sell enough Tupperware and Amway products, we can get a pink Cadillac.”
In Moore’s case, he sells enough poor quality, anti-capitalist, sleaze-journalist, junk-film with the aesthetic appeal of his grotesque demeanor. For Moore, capitalism has allowed him to benefit in a large way by providing the progressive left with a sand box to wallow in the politics of envy, resentment and contempt while feeling self-righteous. Given that progressives strive to pimp the mindless into slavery, Moore is pimping the progressives making him an uber-pimp. I suspect he has at least one pink Cadillac somewhere.
I hope both the lawyer and his ex-wife screw him out of just about everything.
And expose his tax-sheltered wealth. I’m sure his OWS buddies will be happy to hear about that.
“DO AS WE SAY, NOT AS WE DO”
Dontcha just love champaigne socialists?
The one positive thing I gleaned from the article was
“they had no children”
Thank the lord for that. This over-inflated, fat idiot is the epitome of the hollywood culture. You know the ones the big ‘0’ is so enamored with. Hypocritical fabricators.
Yet, the geniuses on the left will continue to lap up his crap up faster than Roger can eat three chickens and a plate of chips.
Capitalism has been very very good for him.
You’d think a rich anti-capitalist would be able to relocate to Cuba or Venezuela or some other communist paradise. Instead, he continues to live large in America.
“You’d think a rich anti-capitalist would be able to relocate to Cuba or Venezuela”
Rice and beans make Mikey fart.
It reminds me of the copyright notices on books by Jacques Derrida.
Cadillac Communists.
Michael More…the fat pig
You get a pink cadillac from Mary Kay cosmetics not Tupperware.
He’s so wrong he ain’t NEVER been right.

Another “closet capitalist” that we are going to hear about more often in the next year is ‘Dizzie Ms. Lizzie”. She is back on the old song and dance about rigging elections with the ‘co-operation’ of Libs/Dips and then bringing in proportional representation. All these “Closet Capitalists” masquerading as Libs and Socialist want is a perpetual place at the trough without having to put in the elbow work. Unlike Moore in the US that actually made something to sell to the ‘Low Information Voters’ to con them out of transferring their coin into his pockets we in Canada are stuck with our collection of trough feeders that have nothing to sell but Green(Lizzie) Blarney(Mulcair) Dreams(Shiny Pony). Europe is already in the septic tank, America is circling the bowl and these people have their hand on the flush lever for Canada and if they get that power there will be nowhere to turn.
All the animals are equal….
Just another hypocrite and fraud preying on the gullible and stupid…much along the same lines as Jimmy and Tammy Faye Bakker and Jimmy Swaggert.
“The duo co-owns a Manhattan condo that was created through the combination of three separate units.”
I’ll bet that condo required addition load-bearing modifications too.
Moore’s crime is not that he is a hypocrite, or even inconsistent. He’s not a capitalist. He’s a socialist who thinks that he and the rest of the swells ought to lie, deceive, dupe, coerce and compel, if needs be, the rubes into giving him and his ilk all their money. He’s a professional liar. It’s what they do.
In the quote above, Moore makes an error that I have seen over and over from the Left.
Greed is not the desire for wealth. Greed is the desire for unearned wealth.
Throw in Jenny Kwan, of Portland Hotel Society infamy. Pigs at the trough.
C’mon, be nice, a guy has to have somewhere to stash his Doritos.
Good point.
A faux liberal; no; yes.
Snicker…..
Facebook ..here we come. 🙂
“Moore, 60, and Glynn, 56, were married nearly 23 years ago and have no children”
They took off their clothes and couldn’t stop laughing long enough to do anything ( great line from Rodney Dangerfield, but most appropriate here).
That woman looks like Moore in drag. Thank God for small favors.
@murray:
I’m a sucker for a line like “It reminds me of the copyright notices on books by Jacques Derrida.” What does that mean?
IMHO, Jacques Derrida, a man whose writing is so obtuse and un-understandable that he must be brilliant.
If he was black he’d be the next US president. Affermative Action baby.
When it comes to phoney he and Obummer are neck and neck in the lead.
Progressives are forever creating words and expressions for things they don’t like. Then they can just string these expressions together et voila! Another article for The Guardian.
We need an expression for filthy rich activists who rail against 1%ers, capitalism, greed, environmental exploitation, and the like. Such double think deserves its own name.
“We need an expression for filthy rich activists who rail against 1%ers, capitalism, greed, environmental exploitation, and the like.”
We’ve always had one: hypocrite.
“Hypocrite”
Too general. This is a specific type of hypocrite, one that seems particularly common to this time. Just as Inuit have many terms for the different types of snow, we need to discern between the various flavours of hypocrite.

Democrat?

Thanks,
