Steven Spielberg's become unendurable

It was recently reported that the would-be legendary Hollywood filmmaker Spielberg has been funding anti-Israel movements through the institutions he founded, and worse, it looks like he himself has indicated where he really stands, almost 3 years after October 7, 2023:

When Steven Spielberg created the Righteous Persons Foundation with some of the profits from Schindler’s List, he wanted to educate people about the Holocaust and build up Jewish life in America. “I could not accept any money from ‘Schindler’s List’ — if it even made any money. It was blood money, and needed to be put back into the Jewish community.”

“My parents didn’t keep kosher and we mainly observed all the holidays when my grandparents stayed with us,” the filmmaker said at the time. “I knew I was missing a great deal of my natural heritage, and as I became conscious of it, I began racing to catch up.”

The race has long since gone the other way.

The last time the Righteous Persons Foundation, named after the rescuers of Holocaust survivors, funded Holocaust programs was in 2021. Most of its funding now goes to radical social justice groups including anti-Israel organizations like those protesting Israel.

Since 2021, Spielberg’s foundation has provided $650,000 to T’ruah, an anti-Israel hate group which took part in the Manhattan street blocking and whose CEO celebrated the move and gleefully posted photos of attendees falsely accusing Israel of “ethnic cleansing”.

“We have to keep up the pressure,” urged T’ruah CEO Jill Jacobs, who had accused Israeli officials of “incitement to genocide”, and demanded an end to further Israeli attacks on Hamas. Jacobs had blasted American Jews for speaking about “Oct. 7 and the plight of the hostages without once mentioning the unbearable death toll among Palestinians” because of what she claimed was their fear of wealthy Jewish donors.

Jacobs and T’ruah had even falsely accused Israel of “war crimes” by assassinating Hezbollah leaders. “Israel, too, has already committed war crimes in Lebanon, including by exploding the beepers and walkie talkies of hundreds of Hezbollah members,” Jacobs argued.

Within a year, Spielberg had gone from funding Holocaust survivors to funding those accusing Israel of a new Holocaust while enabling Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran to perpetrate a new one.

He already let the mask slip when he produced Munich in 2005, which was co-scripted by the anti-Israeli playright Tony Kushner, who's worked with him on at least a few other projects. In doing so, Spielberg effectively hollowed out Schindler's List, and at this point, I'm wondering if I can have my money back. As noted further along:

The Righteous Persons Foundation also provided $1.2 million to ‘Bend the Arc’, a radical group originally headed by an anti-Israel protester, which has close ties to anti-Israel protest groups.

I don't think Spielberg's ever made any serious effort to address the Armenian Holocaust during WW1, if at all, and no doubt, because that was perpetrated by the Religion of Peace. He's yet another ill-informed leftist, and towards the end of this article, it's also noted, horrifically enough, that:

A year later, in remarks at the University of Southern California, which was honoring him for setting up the USC Shoah Foundation, the filmmaker briefly addressed the issue, warning about rising antisemitism including “the machinery of extremism is being used on college campuses”, which some of the groups he’s funding have been protecting, while also claiming that it’s “happening alongside anti-Muslim, Arab, and Sikh discrimination.”

Spielberg then appeared to denounce both Israel and Hamas, arguing that, “we can rage against the heinous acts committed by the terrorists of October 7th and also decry the killing of innocent women and children in Gaza.”

Notice how he seems to be trying to cover his tracks by adding the Sikh religion to his shoddy lecture. Despite that, I don't think he gives a damn about followers of the Sikh faith, nor does he care about Arab/Muslim women who fell victim to violence perpetrated by Muslim men. And if followers of the Religion of Peace attacked Sikh adherents, as was the case in 1947, Spielberg would have nothing to say about even that. To think that I once thought he was one of the finest filmmakers, and then he destroyed everything by following the instructions of those who thought he should "grow up" as a storyteller, as though the adventure fare he was first known for was somehow not good enough. Then again, even if he hadn't abandoned fantasy-style filmmaking, chances are he would've lost his way eventually, and his so-called adaptation of War of the Worlds was simply unbearable.

Spielberg's not the only leftist Jew who's taken repellent positions. There's also actor Mandy Patinkin, who's sided with Zohran Mamdani. Perhaps this could explain why Patinkin was a co-star in Alien Nation from 1988, which was quite the leftist propaganda vehicle for a science fiction film. There's some role Patinkin had in years past that, if they're good movies, they'll have to be taken with a grain of salt for now. And back to Spielberg, I am done with his filmmaking resume, which decidedly began to collapse in the past 2 decades or so. No decent person should finance his institutions, that's for sure.
