56. Amazing, isn't it?

I blame a lot of it on television, Murphy Brown, and the liberals in Hollyweird.

Roseanne Barr - MK ULTRA Rules In Hollywood

EXCERPT...

Hollywood is the one that keeps all of this power structure. They perpetuate the culture of racism, sexism, classism, genderism and keep it all in place. They continue to feed it, and they make a lot of money doing it. They do it at the behest of their masters, who run everything.

I speak on behalf of Hollywood. I go to parties, Oscar parties and things like that and big stars pull me aside, take my arm and whisper: “I just want to thank you for the things you say.” And it blows my mind, but that’s the culture, it’s a culture of fear.
