Netflix’s “Cuties” focuses on “crotch shots” and other body parts of 11-year-old girls, sometimes nude, twerking and gyrating on the floor. Republicans are rightly calling on Attorney General Barr to investigate the movie for child pornography. In the customary moderated tone lawyers must take, Senator Ted Cruz asks for an investigation whether child pornography laws were broken:
The film routinely fetishizes and sexualizes these pre-adolescent girls as they perform dances simulating sexual conduct in revealing clothing, including at least one scene with partial child nudity. These scenes in and of themselves are harmful. And it is likely that the filming of this movie created even more explicit and abusive scenes, and that pedophiles across the world in the future will manipulate and imitate this film in abusive ways.
I urge the Department to investigate the production of ‘Cuties’ and Netflix’s distribution of the film in order to determine whether Netflix, any of its executives, or anyone involved with the making of ‘Cuties’ violated any federal laws against the production and distribution of child pornography.”
Tulsi Gabbard, already shunned by Democrat party leadership, is the lone Democrat voice forthrightly speaking for the vast majority:
.@netflix child porn “Cuties” will certainly whet the appetite of pedophiles & help fuel the child sex trafficking trade. 1 in 4 victims of trafficking are children. It happened to my friend’s 13 year old daughter. Netflix, you are now complicit. #CancelNetflix“
Since it’s a movie centered on Islam and a Black girl, why have the scream-in-your-face BLM-Democrats and Islam gone silent? Are they bidding their time hoping the media will successfully gas light people into believing it is actually a well intended social commentary on child sexualization?
If the French, Muslim, Black woman that directed the film wanted to provide commentary against the sexualization of young girls, she would have made a documentary called “Lost Innocence” or “Hollywood’s Pedophilia Problem” or “Prostituting Young Girls”, but she chose to call it “Cuties” in a happy, engaging, entertainment tone, and that is how Netflix promoted it at the outset. You can try and put lipstick on this pig of a movie, and call it commentary, but it is child porn.
Netflix is also trying to deflect by effectively arguing, “but ‘Cuties’ won a “Sundance Film Festival Award” in France in January, 2020”. Good question. How did this French movie about Islam by a Black female director win an award at “Sundance?”
It may have been the perfect storm of it being made in Liberal France where many notable French academic elites have historically compatible views with pedophilia, and which also appear very comfortable with France’s growing Islamic population. This, combined with the BLM movement trying to make sacrosanct all things Black, makes it less shocking.
I wrote the below blog last year on the French government’s treatment of the rape of young girls by Muslim men, and the response of adult, French Liberal women. It may explain how this movie came to be made in France and win an award.
As head of “Sundance” Robert Redford, a person with a relatively unsullied reputation among many very bad actors, could be the voice in Hollywood to take a stand, and withdraw the award. Until that happens and the court’s investigate, the loudest voice that will get the best result is #CancelNetflix.
