The Oscars Come for Oskar

“Schindler’s exceptional deeds stemmed from just that elementary sense of decency and humanity that our sophisticated age seldom sincerely believes in. A repentant opportunist saw the light and rebelled against the sadism and vile criminality all around him.

 

Herbert Steinhouse

BEVERLY HILLS, CA—The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has stripped Schindler’s List of its Best Motion Picture award for not having enough LGBTQ+ characters, people of color, and other oppressed groups.

“Schindler’s List would have been a great movie if it just had a dozen transgendered characters,” said Le’Jon de Froofroo, spokesperson for the Academy. “As it is, there are just a bunch of Jews and Germans — very privileged races.”

“Also, the movie has Nazis — this is the current year, for goodness’ sake!”

Steven Spielberg has been ordered by the Academy to re-release the film with an unnecessary LGBTQ+ side plot, a gay roommate for Schindler, and a song and dance number set to a Lady Gaga song over the end credits if he wishes to re-earn the Academy Award. Otherwise, it will be re-awarded to Brokeback Mountain.

Yes, history is abhorrent to the modern mind. It must be corrected. It must be adjusted to our present understanding of humanity. To say that this abridges the truth should never be a consideration. Truth is, we now know, must be adaptable to the human sensibilities of the present age.. There are only new truth.

Go to a newstand, a bookstore or a grocery store and notice the word must be out in the publishing world too…most every women’s magazine (some other genres too) covers this month has an African American male or female on the cover because Black Lives Matter….except in the womb.

Words matter. Early on the representatives of Christianity and traditional values surrendered to the homosexual movement the redefinition of the world “gay”. It was the first step in the normalization of a disordered perversion. It’s still happening. Instead of an image of a man who is attracted to having anal intercourse with another man, it became your hairdresser who speaks a little funny. Imagine naming your child Gaylord or Gaynelle in the present culture. We have also gone from acceptance to compulsory participation.
