Stanley Kubrick's Daughter Is a Far-Right Proud Boys and QAnon Fanatic

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Vivian Kubrick, the reclusive daughter of legendary filmmaker Stanley Kubrick and the director of a making-of documentary on his movie The Shining, has been accused of “spreading anti-Semitic conspiracies,” anti-vax propaganda, and violent far-right memes on Twitter.

Though notoriously uncommunicative with the press (a standard of the Kubrick family for decades), Kubrick is a vocal presence on the platform. In just the first two weeks of February, for example, she referred to Bill Gates as a “Bioterrorist,” railed against COVID-19 vaccines (as well as mask-wearing generally), and posted a link inviting readers to a private QAnon discussion group.

Such tweets are only the most recent of Kubrick’s public statements and appearances to come under scrutiny by fans of her celebrated father. The Daily Beast previously reported on her conversion to Scientology, saying that she had skipped her late sister Anya’s funeral in 2009 due to an enforced “disconnection” from her family, while in the same year The Guardian wrote that her mother, Christiane Kubrick, considered Vivian “lost” to the church.

1. Sickening. Someone with every opportunity her birth to accomplished wealthy parents could provide...

Absolutely nauseating...

2. Reminds me of Patty Hearst. It's easy to get indoctrinated if she is privileged and insecure.

Story at 11.

5. Horribly sad news. Her father was such an inquisitive, deep thinker.

What a sad waste.

And as for anti-semitism, Stanley Kubrick was Jewish. One of his unrealized ambitions was to make a movie about the Holocaust. He turned down Schindler's List because it was about "survivors" and he wanted to make a film about the people who died in the Holocaust. What on earth is she thinking?

7. Of course she's a Scientologist.

8. She was especially targeted because of her wealth & celebrity status. That's how Scientology rolls.

11. Her "celebrity status" wasn't much. She made two or three documentaries about

her father making The Shining and Full Metal Jacket which were mediocre at best, so we're talking about decades since she's done a thing. She hasn't done anything on her own. She wasn't prominent or an "influencer." She occasionally made appearances at events honoring her dad.

You'd think Stanley Kubrick would have left a huge estate but it was only around $20 million.

Some people might be under the notion she's some young, impressionable person: She's sixty year old.

13. Scientology is into stats: Vivian Kubrick has the famous name, worth $9 million,

is 60 yrs old (scientology will get much if not all), has Hollywood connections, and has experience in film making. It is a total win for Scientology. They're a pretty ruthless organization.

9. Her Twitter is full of Trump's crazy garbage

12. It's really sad.

This is one of those little news stories I wish I'd just entirely missed seeing or clicking on.

10. Do Proud Boy women still call themselves Boys?

It's weird enough when you name your group after something you'd expect to find in a pack of trading cards, but making it gender specific is, well I'm just confused
