Comedian Ricky Gervais set all of Hollywood ablaze when he called smug celebrities out for being a bunch of hypocritical jerks during Sunday night’s Golden Globe awards show.
Gervais told the crowd of pompous elites that they had no business lecturing anyone on n anything, especially politics.
He reminded them that they don’t live in the “real world,” and if they won an award, they should come up, accept the award, thank their agent and get off the stage.
He also called them out for befriending monsters like Jerffy Epstein and Harvey Weinstein and supporting “woke” companies that operate sweatshops in China.
Of course, the elites were butt-hurt. The smug liberal media has been attacking Gervais ever since his performance and calling the liberal comedian a”right-winger” simply because he is sick and tired of the hypocrisy and bullcrap from the left.
But Gervais is firing back.
Gervais took to Twitter where he called out his critics.
“How the fuck can teasing huge corporations, and the richest, most privileged people in the world be considered right wing? #GoldenGlobes”

“Anybody that isn’t far left is now considered right wing. And they’ll still act shocked when they get smoked in November.”

“Because you teased the ”leftist” privileged elite and the companies that support them. They don’t like their own raging hypocrisy rubbed in their face so now they must vilify you the only way they know how. Welcome to the club. ”

Gervais also thanked everyone who appreciated his performance – which was basically EVERYONE.
He again took to Twitter and sent out a message to his fans.
“Thanks for all your amazing comments about my Golden Globes monologue. Best reaction ever and that means a lot to me. I had a blast but thank fuck it’s over, so I can get back to my real job of editing #AfterLife2 and touring #SuperNature. Make Jokes, Not War”
