1. Entertainment is Totally Decentralised
Before the advent of television, people would see big Hollywood films in cinemas and at the end of every Oscar year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences would award the ones they thought were the best…or the ones their friends made, or the ones whose makers bribed them, or the ones whose stars ate and drank in the same restaurants and bars as Academy voters.
The 89th Academy Awards didn’t go off entirely without controversy.
The winner for “Best Foreign Language Film” was The Salesman, from prominent Iranian director Asghar Farhadi.
However, Farhardi decided not to attend the ceremony in protest against President Trump’s executive order preventing Iranians and citizens of 5 other Muslim-majority countries from entering the US for 6 months, Reuters reports. The order was subsequently suspended by a federal judge.

It should come as no surprise that a film celebrating the White Helmets scooped up an Oscar for best short documentary. Might as well hand the Oscar to ISIS leader Abū Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Far from a humanitarian organisation, the White Helmets are an Al Qaeda staffed propaganda group that is embedded with brutal jihadists looking to overthrow the sovereign government of Syria.
