He was a hero to the left as long as his claim to fame was pretending to be a woman. But when it came to light that he had dared to criticize George Floyd and an even more sacred totem for the left, Islam, he was suddenly in hot water. Would leftists be demanding that Karla Sofía Gascón not be given an Oscar if he had criticized Christianity and calling for it to be banned? What do you think?
“Karla Sofía Gascón’s Years-Old Social Media Posts About George Floyd, Islam Cause Stir Online,” by Chris Gardner, Hollywood Reporter, January 30, 2025:
On the heels of a dust-up with supporters of fellow best actress Oscars nominee Fernanda Torres, Karla Sofía Gascón is catching heat for fiery takes she posted online in recent years about everything from Islam to George Floyd.
The Emilia Pérez star’s posts on X (formerly Twitter) started to make the rounds early Thursday morning with multiple users sharing screenshots and critical takes of Gascón’s opinions. For example, less than a month after George Floyd was murdered in Minnesota in 2020, inciting nationwide Black Lives Matter rallies, Gascón shared a thread recapping her views.
“Let me get this straight, a guy tries to pass off a counterfeit bill after consuming methamphetamine, an idiot policeman arrives and goes too far in arresting him, killing him, ruining the lives of his family and his colleagues, and turning the guy with the bill into a martyr hero,” she wrote (in Spanish, which was translated here by Google Translate). “I truly believe that very few people ever cared about George Floyd, a drug addict and a hustler, but his death has served to highlight once again that there are those who still consider Black people to be monkeys without rights and those who consider the police to be murderers. All wrong.”
Later that year, she took aim at Muslims in her native Spain.
“Sorry, is it just my impression or are there more and more Muslims in Spain? Every time I go to pick up my daughter from school there are more women with their hair covered and their skirts down to their heels,” she posted on Nov. 23, 2020. “Maybe next year instead of English we’ll have to teach Arabic.”
Regarding Islam, she suggested a ban: “Until we ban religions that go against European values and violate human rights, such as Islam, under the protection of freedom of worship, we will not end part of the huge problem we face. Faith manipulates those who cling to faith.”
Vanity Fair writer Chris Murphy weighed in by commenting on Gascón’s posts about Floyd: “You can’t make this stuff up … for the love of God do not give this woman an Oscar!!!” Gascón made history as the first trans performer to be nominated as best actress while her film, from writer-director Jacques Audiard, topped the field with 13 nominations for Netflix….

I had seen some trailers of Emilia Pérez, and actually found the entire basis of the movie absurd – a cartel boss, after raking it in, wanting to become a woman 😂🤣. From that standpoint, that movie seems to be a laugh riot. It looks like it’s gotten a record number of Oscar nominations
But the moment I read this story of how he had criticized two sacred cows of the Left – muslims and George Floyd, I was fascinated, and also very amused. The academy has gone out of its way to give
herhis movie those 13 Oscars, including him an award for the best actress! It seemed that since this movie glorifies sex change operations, nothing could deprive it of its Oscar. Until now 🤣Initially, I decided to give this movie a miss. But since Karla had decided to mouth off about both muslims and Floyd, maybe I will watch it later this year whenever it’s out. If for no other reason, its comedic value

When one of the Left’s Sacred Cows starts “throwing shade” (as that idiotic expression goes), at the other Sacred Cows… then one of them is gonna be kicked out of the pasture.
Fun to watch. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch of sanctimonious sh*ts.

I could not agree more!

I had never heard of this person nor the movie, so didn’t realize it’s a male pretending to be a mom.
Saw on the news feed stuff about a ‘backlash.’ Isn’t that what the one sect of islam does….causing the mozlum adherents to lash their backs?
This pretender doesn’t know beans about *faith* even if he knows islam is bad. mozlums claim “faith,” but they don’t have faith, and don’t know or understand the concept. They just mouth the word, like they do so many other words; like peace, tolerance, freedom, etc.
The thing is, with so many who get one thing *right*….the evils and spread of islam….they then backtrack and apologize to stay with the fakeness of the in-crowd.

When the Muslims finally turn on their leftist/gay allies, the left will say as Woody said in “Play it Again, Sam,” “How did I misread those signs?”
Paul Burns says
Well, let’s sit back and enjoy the fireworks. If they don’t give him Best Actress they will be looking transphobic and if they do, they will be rewarding him for racist and Islamophobic posts on social media. How the turn tables…

I suppose that Karla Sofía Gascón doesn’t want to be tossed off a high building. Bad dhimmi!

When I served in Bangkok back in the 1990’s, some of the other folks at AmEmbassy Bangkok saw me as an oddball because I had absolutely no interest in watching a _khatoey_ show. As a teacher, I am cautiously breathing a sigh of relief that I may not be fired for not celebrating Perv Pride. As far as I’m concerned, this Gascon person (is anything about him real) is simply another silly entertainer.
So he recognizes Islam as a threat. OK. Communists do the same; but Communists have proven to be a degenerative force that gives even Islam a run for its money. I see the whole sexual revolution as a similar force rotting Western civilization from within.
As a teacher, I do not throw mud at students. Since I teach ESOL, a number of my charges are Muslims from Afghanistan, Iran, and Syria. They get respect along with everyone else. But as a Christian, I pray that they will get exposure to the Gospel and the Holy Spirit will use it to break through that blasphemous Islamic creed. I also pray that the confused young people being groomed by some wealthy jades to believe they’re the other sex will also be enlightened and reconcile with their natural sex as they reconcile with God.
Lord, have mercy on these confused United States and your wayward North Altantic children. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
