Then yesterday she opened her bigoted little mouth and all the ugly came spilling out.

bigoted little mouth and ugly is right. Well said loaferman. Preach it.

She said nothing bigoted or untrue. Once again the majority group in this country is feigning persecution.

What's everyone talking about?

Someone please post a link.

And I suppose from her own statement that she is Jewish, she has absolutely no issues with how Muslims treat women or that they talk about Allah all the time. Come on man. It is fashionable and acceptable to bash Christians and Republicans (are either a majority? I just read that Protestants were not any more). The fact that she takes the trendy shot at the easy target and ignores Islamic treatment of women and won't mention Mohammad or Allah says it all. She knows darn well what will happen if she does that. I enjoy That 70's Show, but she can forget me going to see any more of her films. Where is her tolerance and embracing of diversity??

Thank you, loaferman. And I'm not even religious.

I like some of her work, but I just do not understand while someone who is popular and a decent actress feels the need to express negativity toward other people because of their religion or political affiliation. There seem to be certain acceptable targets as well. If an actor was a not practicing Christian and expressed negativity toward Jewish people or Democrats would that be OK? She is entitled to her opinion but as a public figure I believe she has some responsibility to not make intolerant remarks to the press.

Here are Mila Kunis' comments, in context, with the "offending" portion in red:

ESQUIRE: I want to follow up on an answer you recently gave to Glamour. You said you engaged in political street art. Uh, political street art?

MILA KUNIS: I can't really go into detail because I'm going to get into trouble.

ESQUIRE: Why would you get into trouble?

MILA KUNIS: Because it's illegal.

ESQUIRE: Can you be vague about it then?

MILA KUNIS: It has to do with the Defense of Marriage Act. It's my friend's issue. I'm supporting him.

[She goes off the record.]

ESQUIRE:Yeah, you could be arrested for that.

MILA KUNIS: But I'd be arrested for something I believe in... . Good luck including something about gay rights in Esquire.

ESQUIRE: Of course I could include that.

MILA KUNIS: Okay.

ESQUIRE: Do you consider yourself political?

MILA KUNIS: I find it all to be incredibly entertaining. I went to the White House Correspondents' Dinner with Wolf Blitzer. It's weird: You get invited by people you don't know — and I never wanna go again, because I had the most incredible experience. Ever. I watch CNN or MSNBC all day long, every day. So I meet with Wolf, and I was like, "Oh, my God. There's Wolf Blitzer." Like two drinks in, I just start talking. "So, about Ahmadinejad's nephew ..." Wolf was surprised I followed politics.

ESQUIRE: Politics can also be incredibly demoralizing.

MILA KUNIS: The way that Republicans attack women is so offensive to me. And the way they talk about religion is offensive. I may not be a practicing Jew, but why we gotta talk about Jesus all the time? And it's baffling to me how a poor person in Georgia can say, "I'm a Republican." Why?

ESQUIRE: That's a controversial position.

MILA KUNIS: Do you remember the McCain commercial? "Finish the dang fence." Do you remember this?

ESQUIRE: No.

MILA KUNIS: God, not many people have seen this commercial. McCain's walking along the Arizona border fence and talking to a sheriff, and the sheriff says, "You're one of us, sir." And McCain turns to the sheriff and says, "Eh, finish the dang fence." I lost my s--t. "Finish the dang fence."

ESQUIRE: Some people don't like to hear celebrities talk about politics.

MILA KUNIS: I don't think I'm a celebrity. I'm a working actress. I think there's a difference.

ESQUIRE: That's a philosophical distinction.

And I suppose from her own statement that she is Jewish, she has absolutely no issues with how Muslims treat women or that they talk about Allah all the time. Come on man. It is fashionable and acceptable to bash Christians and Republicans (are either a majority? I just read that Protestants were not any more).

I hear lots of staunch conservatives (mostly the fringe elements of the Tea Party) claiming that the sky is falling by way of Sharia Law, but on the scale of threats to this country, being forced to follow the tenets of Islam is pretty low; maybe a notch or two above an attack from Godzilla. As it stands today, there's only one Muslim legislator in U.S. government vs. countless fundamentalist Christians—who tend to be Republican—in virtually all branches of office, trying to push their religious agenda on the people.

So why would Ms. Kunis bring up Islam in her interview? It's an awful religion, but it's right-wing Christians (again, the majority religion in the United States) that could potentially create faith-based state and federal laws that oppress the rights of women, not Muslims.

So I think Ms. Kunis not bringing up Islam in the interview had nothing to do with her being afraid of "what will happen to her" if she did. You talk about yourself in interviews, things that matter to you and things that affect your day-to-day life. That's why in the above excerpt, she talked about what is relevant to her as an American (politics), as a woman (women's rights), as an empathetic friend (gay rights) and as a Ukrainian immigrant to the United States (McCain's ad). The words "Islam" or "Muslim" probably weren't even on her radar when she was talking to the reporter.

First of all President Obama has said this is not a Christian nation. This article also breaks down the numbers http://www.sfgate.com/business/bloomberg/article/Protestants-Now-Minority-in-U-S-for-First-Time-3932665.php. That said I still can not find any reason for a person to express such intolerant thoughts publicly and it be cool. If Ms. Kunis is so concerned about women's rights and ignores what is happening to Muslim women then she needs an eye exam. My point is tolerance and diversity is supposed to be celebrated, yet as long as it is reflected at the "allowed" groups it is apparently OK. I say no it is not. Replace the words Jewish and Christian and Republican with Democrat and tell me that is acceptable.
I will buy no more of Ms. Kunis' movies if standing on the extra quarter inch of the DVD box would save me from a hanging.

That's understandable. If I was so insecure in my belief system and political party that the opinions of Mila Kunis were a threat, I'd probably be boycotting her work, too.

So when the ADL gets upset over comments made about Jewish people by someone such as Glenn Beck http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=194993 you think they have no right to defend their belief system? Hate speech is hate speech. Now next time an actor makes an anti-Semitic remark (Mel Gibson) we know there will be no outcry whatsoever.

I'm done with this thread. Send me a PM when Mila Kunis has thrown out a derogatory epithet toward Christians, or has said something that is untrue. Until then, enjoy your Christian persecution kick; I hear it's really fun around Christmastime (you get to claim that there's an actual "war" on Christmas and people take you seriously!).

Translation: I have no real answer, so I turn it on you. No other group has a "persecution kick" do they?

No, I do have something to say, and I believe I've done an adequate job making my case. My mistake was believing that you were reasonable enough as a discerning human being to know that there's a world of difference between the benign remarks of Mila Kunis and the venomous filth spewed by Glenn Beck (blatantly inaccurate) and Mel Gibson (disgustingly racist and untrue).

On his radio show, Glenn Beck said of fourteen-year-old George Soros: "Here's a Jewish boy helping send the Jews to the death camps." Mr. Beck began with his belief of Mr. Soros to be a shadowy, Emperor Palpatine figure and worked backward from there to create a wildly inaccurate portrayal. The danger is that many of Beck's followers believe every word the man says, so now you have thousands of Americans convinced that George Soros played a part in the Holocaust.

Here's what really happened: Soros, a child was spared life and probable death in a Nazi concentration camp because his father was able to convince an agricultural officer to pretend he was his Christian godson. That officer later took Soros (again, a child) on surveys to appraise the value of property "confiscated" from Jewish people. To imply that there was evil or malice on the part of this child, or that he even had any choice in the matter, is reprehensible.

As for Mr. Gibson, I'm sure you're aware that Jews don't actually start all wars, and that it's disgusting in more ways than one to say a woman deserves to be raped by "a pack of n----rs." You probably shouldn't call your employees "wetbacks," either. And I could be wrong, but I'd be willing to bet that female police officer's name wasn't really "Sugartits."

Ms. Kunis' remarks aren't even in the same league. It isn't even an apples-and-oranges comparison, Loaferman; it's more like apples and tacos, or even duct tape and oranges.

the benign remarks of Mila Kunis

be·nign
   [bih-nahyn]
adjective
1.having a kindly disposition; gracious: a benign king.

3.favorable; propitious: a series of benign omens and configurations in the heavens.


1. Kindly and gracious - No.

I don't get why with all the talk about being accepting of everyone, diversity is our strength, bullying, and not saying hurtful things in public discourse, you can not just admit her remarks showed none of those things.
