I know that a lot of conservatives aren't big on the modern entertainment industry. I wonder if any right-wing or conservative Americans here Can make a good case for Hollywood and the entertainment industry. I am leaning a bit more conservative than liberal, But I don't have a whole lot against the modern TV/film industry. I follow some celebrities and good nothing against celebritydom.
I don't have much good to say about an industry that is openly biased against Conservatives working in it, to the point where Conservatives in Hollywood (other than well-established ones like Clint Eastwood, Patricia Heaton, Kelsey Grammar, etc.) have to hide their beliefs in order to keep working.
Its a business whose ultimate goal is to make money
If conservatives can't get behind that, well then they really dont stamd for anything
If that were true, they would create far more product directed at Conservatives. American Sniper made $350 million, is in the top 30 all-time box office and was a January release. Christian films last year earned really well on very modest budgets, while big-budget junk like Noah which treated the Bible poorly, flopped.
If they truly only cared about making money, they wouldn't have kept trying to make so many anti-war, anti-military films in the past decade. They all bombed, but Hollywood kept cranking them out because they wanted to push ideas rather than make money.
If Hollywood didn't exist, we would be better off. What positive good does Hollywood do?
The problem with Hollywood, is that everything is fake. And really, not just Hollywood, all entertainment is fake. And it creates a very unrealistic world-view, that is actually harmful.
Whether it be the fake standards of beauty(from surgeries, makeup, etc). Or its the fake "causes" that these entertainers get associated with, to get their name in the papers. Or just the generally fake/unrealistic depictions of human life that is portrayed in movies, and especially in modern sitcoms.
Almost all the modern TV shows designed for women, are completely classless, filled full of women sleeping around with practically every guy they meet. Most likely because the writers are too lazy to come up with an actual storyline. Then women(especially young women) begin to think this kind of behavior is "normal".
Its disgusting. Though I more blame ****ty Americans than Hollywood.
Regardless, Hollywood makes society worse. No sane person would think otherwise.

Have to hide their beliefs in order to keep working? Who told you that fairy tale? Check out this list of 50 big name Conservative Republican actors and you'll see that most of them have made a very good living in Hollywood and they aren't hiding anything to get jobs.

The occult researcher pseudonymously known as Freeman Fly got a bit of surreptitious blowback for this:
I don't know how anyone can be impressed with what comes out of Hollywood. It's all been done before and for the most part it was done better before.
