Russian TV Anchor Dmitry Kiselev Criticizes Hollywood For Promoting 'Gender' As A New Ideology

In his commentary for Vesti Nedeli on Rossiya-1 TV (Russia), pro-Kremlin presenter Dmitry Kiselev criticized gender politics in Hollywood. "In this regard: women shoot and women judge. From now on, everything should consist of at least 50% women, according to the order. That is, gender becomes the number one issue," Kiselev stressed.

Kiselev then commented on the new 2019 Hollywood action movie "Charlie's Angels", written and directed by Elizabeth Banks, stating that this new installment in the Charlie's Angels film series shows how gender politics ruined the quality of movies. Kiselev stated: "[The previous Charlie's Angels movies] were successful and popular comedy movie projects created by mean for men and for women. And then a woman got down to business. I wouldn't stress it if Elizabeth Banks herself didn't emphasize her gender and nonstandard orientation. And what's the result? Today's Charlie's Angels features a lesbian heroine played by Kristen Stewart, a true lesbian… When it comes to men, according to the script, they are either villains or morons. The women [i.e. the three Charlie's Angels] brutally deal with them during the film, by either killing them or by cynically using them… It isn't funny, but brutally serious. The women are at work. Their work is to punish men."

Kiselev concluded stating that the movie was a flop in Russia and in the entire world. He then stressed that, nevertheless, Elizabeth Banks blamed "for her own failure" not herself, but "men". Kilesev said: "Everything's simpler. Men are just people. They don't want to watch a mediocre movie. And if mediocre cinema is filled with lesbians and queers, then this fact alone doesn't make the picture more talented in the eyes of men."

He then assessed: "Is it politically incorrect? Problably. But we aren't here for this."
