Ricky Gervais' Golden Globes Speech Was What The Common Man Was Thinking Along

The Golden Globes is a special night where celebrities show off their designer outfits and virtue signal on how the common man should live his life. But this past Golden Globes, well, it took a different turn.

Ricky Gervais hosted this year's show, and he had few choice words for his Hollywood associates. He started off his speech as normal, with him saying his name and stating the location of the award show (the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles). He then went on to say a few hot takes on his peers.

At the beginning of his monologue, Gervais said that it would be his last time hosting the Golden Globes and that he never cared about hosting. Gervais reminded his colleagues that a joke is a joke and that they're going to die soon anyway, which is a statement that more people should live by.

Toward the middle of his dialogue, Gervais made an "Epstein didn't kill himself" reference.

The end of his speech was when it got really spicy. He said that the people in the audience are in no position to lecture the public about anything and know nothing about the real world. He goes there with him saying that most of them have spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. God damn! His final blow was when he said that when the winner accepted their award, he said that they should thank their agent and God and "fuck off." He made several other hot takes in his opening monologue but those were the ones that stuck out to me.

What Ricky Gervais said during his monologue is what the common man has been thinking for years.

Normal people are sick and tired of being lectured by people who, for the most part, have experienced little hardship and think that since they make millions off the public, then they can lecture the public about issues they've seldom experienced. The public is starting to see through their babble, and are calling them out on their false pretenses. The common man is told to shut up and stay in our place if we speak out against the masses, and to accept the status quo.

What Ricky Gervais said at the Golden Globes was something that had to be said to Hollywood elites. They do not get to tell us how to live our lives and don't change anything in their lives. His opening monologue was, of course, very well received by well-known conservatives like Paul Joesph Watson and Candace Owens. They tweeted that Gervais was "dropping red pills" and that there should be more celebrities like him.

I would love to see more celebrities like Ricky Gervais, who calls out Hollywood on their nonsense.

Hollywood elites always talk about how there should more diversity when it comes to gender, race, and sexual orientation but no diversity of thought and opinion. Gervais broke the Hollywood hive mind by telling the truth through his wit and humor, and they couldn't handle it. If they don't want to get lectured on they're hypocrites, they should realize that they're not the arbiters of the world and the common man doesn't have to consume their media if they don't agree with their personal beliefs.

How Technology Has Changed Our Lives

If we look back on how our ancestors lived we can sense a totally different lifestyle. If they could come back and live with all our technological devices they surely would think they are in a completely new alien world. They lived such a simple life without our devices that it seems as if centuries have passed by. In reality most of the discoveries were accomplished in the past twenty years. Indeed we have assisted a total technological distortion. This change in our lives was characterized by a myriad of technological innovations, due to globalization.
