The International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has taken back its absurd, meaningless, hyperbolic Emmy that it awarded then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo for “leadership” during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Literally every move Cuomo made as governor of New York was foolish: medieval lockdowns that statistically don’t work, school closures that alienate children from development, and a decision to lock elderly nursing home patients away to die unceremonious deaths were just some of his ‘accomplishments’ in 2020. He even wrote and published a sick, masturbatory book celebrating his failures as triumphs; an obvious cash-grab that reeked of subversion and dysfunction, à la O.J. Simpson’s twisted book If I Did It.
Except in this case, Cuomo really did do it and was proud of it. The sycophantic media and their bootlicking contingency of readers made an idol out of Cuomo, transforming him from sleazy career politician into a literal god of the sun for which they gleefully paid tribute like lemmings running over a cliff. Like all leftist narratives, the deification of Cuomo surely felt empowering in the moment, but it ultimately ended as just another brick in the wall of enslavement. New Yorkers have less freedom than ever before (hello, vaccine passports) and nobody to blame but themselves. They chose their savior, worshipped him as such, and are left with not only egg on their face but mandatory masks on them, too.
Everyone involved in the liberal orgy will claim ignorance when it comes to Cuomo’s dealings with women; in fact, they’ll even use the about-face as a reason to respect them and their purity of intent even more now that the god has been made to look like a fool. Even if that’s true, and Cuomo’s bullying and sexual aggression was a well-kept secret, the fact that the lemmings held him in high enough regard to give him a television award despite his utter failings as a political leader fingers them all as either outright liars or morons of the highest degree. more
Too bad I can’t take back the 10 years I endured under his Governorship!
Leave in shame dirtbag, and take your sleazy punk of a brother with you.
Right move for the wrong reason.
@Truckerbuddy, and take his dog with him.
“Cackle, cackle, cackle…”
I oughta trow all of youse iotwr’s down the stairs!!!
A worthless Doodad given to a worthless person by worthless people!
Heh. Institutional failure across the board. Academy Award is masturbation pure and simple but it once held some mojo. Writing a book once held some mojo, now it’s masturbation as well, as everyone thinking is very clear the scumbag didn’t write a word of it himself. The only way you get a word written by the IROC (Italian retard out cruising) is if he signs your copy. I feel a rant coming on. Over and out.
A little too late. The value of an Emmy is still sub basement and only slightly above the Nobel. I just ‘won’ my 3rd Emmy from a box of Crackerjack. The other 2 were from gumball machines.
Holy shit! If they start revoking Emmys for sexual improprieties, they are going to need a warehouse the size of a Walmart Superstore to house them all!
They can take mine back too.
I should get an Emmy for the masterpiece I created this morning.
But…alas…it went swirling down just like all the others
How can you lose something that never belonged to you in the first place?
