I read this on the news and the internet last night.
Who knows of the actress Cameron Diaz?
Put up your hands.
Worldly, sinful-- how do you know that?
No, I'm just kidding.
But anyway, Cameron Diaz-- I know who it is.
I've heard of her before.
Listen to this.
Actress Cameron Diaz appears to have committed a major fashion
faux pas in Peru, Peru being the country in South America.
The voice of Princess Fiona in the animated Shrek films
may have inadvertently-- now remember that word
inadvertently.
That means by accident.
Whoops.
Sorry.
OK.
She may have inadvertently offended Peruvians
who suffered decades of violence from a Maoist guerrilla
insurgency by touring here Friday with a bag emblazoned
with one of Mao Tse-Tung's favorite political slogans.
Are you listening to this?
While exploring the Inca city of Machu Picchu high in Peru's
Andes, Diaz wore over her shoulder an olive green
messenger bag.
Now what does the color olive green make you think of?
That's a military color, right?
Olive green is like the army's colors, OK?
An olive green messenger bag emblazoned with a red star
and the words "serve the people" printed in Chinese on
the flap, perhaps Chinese communist leaders Mao's most
famous political slogan.
While the bags are marketed as trendy fashion accessories in
some world capitals, the phrase has particular resonance
in Peru, where the Maoist shining path insurgency
brought Peru to the edge of chaos in the 1980s and early
'90s with a campaign of massacres, assassinations, and
bombings.
Isn't that a fun accessory?
Nearly 70,000 people were killed during the insurgency.
Are you listening to this?
Hominist followers of Mao Tse-Tung in Peru massacred and
killed 70,000 people.
A prominent Peruvian human rights activist said the star
of "There's Something About Mary"--
I guess that's some stupid movie that I've never heard of--
should have been a little more aware of local sensitivities
when picking her accessories.
It alludes to a concept that did so much damage to Peru
that brought about so many victims, said Paul Rojas about
the bag slogan.
I don't think she should have used that bag, where the
followers of that ideology did so much damage.
And then it has a picture of her here with some jerk from
MTV, Canada host, guy, soul, blah, blah, blah.
Can you imagine this stuff?
I mean, do you understand that?
This woman goes to Peru, where 70,000 people were
massacred by the bloodthirsty communist followers of Mousetong.
And she wears a green, military-looking handbag
with a red communist star on it, and a communist slogan
from Mousetong, "Serve the people."
The murdering, butchering monster, Mousetong.
Is Mousetong your hero this morning?
If you want to be called the son of Mousetong's daughter, no.
And see, childish teenagers, who doesn't know what it says?
The bags are marketed as a trendy fashion accessory?
Wouldn't that be cool to wear an insignia of somebody who
killed 70,000 people in Peru?
Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Wouldn't that be great to wear a Chinese communist?
Let freedom swell the breeze and ring from all the trees.
No.
She didn't say my country physically.
She didn't say freedom for the people.
No, it's serve the people.
Government serve the people, but kill the 70,000 people
who don't agree with you.
I mean, what kind of a foolish childish thing?
But teenagers, and Hollywood, and these people
who are immature, who have not grown up,
they just don't mind associating themselves
with a bloodthirsty dictator, 'cause it's cool.
