I was very disappointed to see Victoria's "Childless Cat Lady - I Vote Too" political post. I had respected her for not making political posts and engaging in Hollywood's extreme liberal nonsense, but she is just as out of touch with the reality of what is happening for average Americans outside of the Hollywood bubble as the rest of them are. She can afford to weather the disastrous consequences if Harris is elected, the rest of us can't.
You’ve just posted your political view. How is different to what Victoria has done?

I didn't say that it was, I expressed my disappointment in her as have many others who left comments on her post.
Can’t you see the hypocrisy in what you’re saying? You gave a political view as well as expressing disappointment. Why isn’t she entitled to say anything? Is it the fact you don’t agree with her politics?

as a side note im in the UK and we’ve had 6 years of moron after moron as our PM and have been the laughing stock of the world. We’ve finally got a bit of stability

Believe me, outside the US your country is respected at the moment despite Biden’s age. When Trump was there you were a laughing stock

There's no hypocrisy, Victoria has a right to free speech and so do I. We want stability too, as well as prosperity and secure borders, none of which we've had with Biden or will have with Harris. My point was that I am disappointed in Victoria for using her platform as a public figure to tow the insulated Hollywood bubble party line when the economic consequences of the election won't matter for her as they will for average Americans.

We’re talking about Victoria Principal! Not Taylor Swift!

Victoria Principal is an American citizen, just because she is a celebrity does not exclude her from voicing her opinion, political or otherwise. Have a problem with that? Keep on scrolling and go on about your business. Have a problem with what I wrote? Keep on scrolling and go on about your business.

Have a nice day.

I get the feeling Victoria's social media break is because of the deluge of political comments on her cat lady post. Very sad if she does feel unwelcome.

Well I think her post is a statement about women's rights and how women who for some reason doesn't have children shouldn't be disregarded by people with political ambitions. Their votes matters too. That's all she is saying. But I like her humourous approach to it. :)

With all due respect, you didn't have any of those things with 4 years of Trump either. Inflation has been a post Covid world issue. Biden/Harris certainly had nothing to do with it.
Canadians aren't streaming across the border to be American. That's because we make fair wages and Mexicans/Central Americans don't. They're essentially legal slaves so we can have low prices and not have to compete for products with billions of "3rd world" citizens who could also afford them if they were paid fairly. The point being, you can't have low prices and no migrant problems. This quote is so true:
No immigrant has taken your job. You were laid off by a Capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits. And nothing makes the Capitalist happier than to hear you blame the migrant instead of him.

I doubt Victoria is bothered by the negative political comments other than to feel sorry for the people who think Trump is a saviour worthy of admiration. Her post was very neutral and she's never made any posts in favour of one candidate over another.

People were threatening to unfollow her but if that happened, I think she gained more followers than she lost.

Anyway, she regularly seems to take social media breaks. Good for her.

Trump captures people's anger and rage, i.e. people who want to stick it to the establishment in some way. However, policy wise, he cuts taxes for the richest.

Starmer? He's a creature of the deep state like the US Democrats. Basically, these are people who want us to "eat shit" and like it. Starmer in his first month as Prime Minister sacked 7 Labour MPs for voting to end the 2-child child benefit cap, saw riots on the streets for a week, and has axed winter fuel allowance for pensioners. Bloody awful. How can you call it "a bit of stability"?

I cannot stand Labour or the Conservatives, nor the Republicans or Democrats. They are all establishment, anti-socialist, anti-working class and have turned mainstream society into a lunatic asylum.

Oh dear. By stability I mean not scandal after scandal after scandal which is what we’ve had for years. Things just seem a bit quieter and a bit settled.
You’re honestly blaming Starmer for the riots when he was only in power a few weeks?
NOTHING can be as bad as what we have endured since Johnson took charge

from your tone you seem to prefer the louder form of politics where people can shout and say what they want irrespective of whether it’s true or not. That was the Tories and Trump all over. If they say it enough times it must be true

This applies to all political parties across the Globe. The stupidity of it all is we - the voters regardless of your/our political bent - continue to vote for idiots who then inflict laws to control the masses. It's a pity sometimes when these same politicians get caught in a scandal they suddenly become bullet proof to those rules they've introduced.

As I'm becoming older I think the world is becoming nuts and to free myself of that anxiety I no longer vote for any party or person. Here in Australia it's a misconception it is compulsory to vote. That's not true. I only have to present myself to a polling booth and have my name marked off. What I do with those voting papers after this, rules no longer apply.

A few weeks ago I was speaking with an elderly gentleman in his mid 80's. His wife passed a few years ago and although he is surrounded and supported by a loving family he told me he has had enough of this bat-shit crazy world and wants off. What shocked him was he said this out loud to a complete stranger. He would never contemplate telling his family that.

I believe Victoria has suddenly found the nasty side to social media simply for expressing her opinion. She is entitled to her opinion whether we agree with it or not but it's no surprise to see many high profile celebrities keep well away from it. Social media could have been a great asset to us all because never have we felt so close to an actor, pop star etc., as they share their life experiences or upcoming projects.

My father once said this to me as I was about to turn 18, an age where here in Australia I could legally walk into a pub and request a beer. I could also vote and shape the future of my country. He said, "Don't ever express an opinion in public on religion or politics. You'll end up down the rabbit hole with the idiot you're arguing with."
