Liberals like to think of themselves as open-minded and tolerant. They’re not. This was something “Eyes Wide Shut” actress Julienne Davis quickly found out when she came out “of the conservative closet” in 2016.
“Since then I haven’t fared well,” Davis said in an op-ed at Fox News, saying it was one of the riskiest decisions of her life.
“About a year ago I made one of the more risky decisions of my life – one that I knew could hurt my career as an actress,” David wrote. “I decided to come out of the conservative closet and admit to my peers that I was a conservative in Hollywood.”
What happened next is astounding – yet sadly, not surprising:
“My ‘unfriendings’ on social media have been many – from acquaintances and close working associates to good friends – including even my best friend. It is interesting to note that all of them just stopped calling and quietly ‘ghosted’ me, and then later unfriended me. Unfriendings aside, the written and very public insults from Hollywood peers on social media and elsewhere have been numerous. I’ve been attacked with obscenities, called a racist, and had one person tell me he hoped I would die.”
“Members of the Hollywood left don’t want to listen, discuss, or even see a dissenting viewpoint that challenges their own comfortable echo chamber.”

Davis isn’t the only Hollywood conservative to get such nasty treatment by liberals, even those they thought were friends. Tim Allen, Tom Selleck, James Woods, Pat Boone, and others have all had similar experiences being treated poorly once their right-leaning political views became known.
“Members of the Hollywood left don’t want to listen, discuss, or even see a dissenting viewpoint that challenges their own comfortable echo chamber,” Davis observed. “It’s ironic that an industry that constantly talks about diversity is so judgmental, hateful and utterly rigid in its groupthink.”
It appears Hollywood loves to make movies encouraging more tolerance, yet can’t tolerate anyone who refuses to march in lockstep with their hard left agenda.
