In a world where much of Hollywood seems to lean left, discovering an actress like Sydney Sweeney leaning right feels like finding a conservative gem in a sea of liberal glitter. Recently, the ever-vigilant woke mob had a field day upon unearthing Sydney Sweeney’s secret: she’s a registered Republican. Oh, the horror! Her crime? Belonging to the party that dares to support traditional values and freedom of expression. It’s as if they uncovered some scandalous skeleton in her closet.
The left’s reaction to Sweeney’s political preferences was to dox her voter registration details, revealing her Republican affiliation as if it were a criminal offense. It seems the left has devolved to flailing at those who dare to think independently. But really, why would anyone on the left be surprised? It’s no secret that many Americans, including those in Hollywood, hold conservative views, though you wouldn’t know it by the way they keep quiet to avoid the woke backlash.
Former President Trump couldn’t help but respond to the news with a good-humored jab, sharing his enthusiasm for Sweeney’s American Eagle ad campaign. Trump praised the actress and even playfully claimed that her ad could make those jeans fly off the shelves faster than you can say “woke cancel culture.” It’s as if Trump’s endorsement of Sweeney was a friendly reminder that it’s not a crime to be a conservative in a Hollywood dominated by progressives. Truth be told, the left’s reaction to Sweeney’s Republican status was almost comical in its predictability.
This incident hammers home the hypocrisy of cancel culture. The woke warriors who preach tolerance and diversity are quick to attack anyone who doesn’t adhere to their orthodoxy. Their attempts to demonize someone for a political belief harken back to an era of McCarthyism—a time when people were publicly shamed for their political affiliations. The people who claim to be champions of free speech are often the quickest to silence those who disagree with them.
In the end, Sydney Sweeney’s boldness in standing by her beliefs without apology should be commended. It serves as a reminder that there are more conservative voices in Hollywood than the left would like to admit. America thrives on diversity of thought, not just in appearance. So when the woke mob comes around with pitchforks aimed at silencing conservative viewpoints, it’s reassuring to know that there are still some brave souls, like Sweeney, challenging their narrative. In a time when going woke means going broke, perhaps turning right is the new left.
