Woody Harrelson might not be invited again to Saturday Night time Dwell after his monologue this previous weekend, however libertarians and vaccine critics in every single place had been delighted. Everybody’s favourite “hippie redneck” blasted Covid vaccines and mandates, and the viewers was shocked into silence.
It’s a reasonably protected guess that Harrelson didn’t run his precise monologue previous producers beforehand. He rambled within the first a part of his monologue then, in what looks like improv, caught the zinger on the finish earlier than they might queue up the enormous hook and pull him offstage, vaudeville-style.
Watch under. (If you wish to skip to his zinger, go to about 5:50.)
Woody might not be everybody’s cup of tea, what along with his openness about Marxism, veganism, and marijuana use, however it’s a must to admire his moxie. Taking this chance to deliver to gentle on the MSM what many people have been saying for 3 years is a career-threatening transfer, however he did it with aplomb.
Harrelson stated that in 2019, he “blazed up a fattie” and “learn a script” that he summarized like this:
…the largest drug cartels on this planet get collectively and purchase up all of the media and all of the politicians and drive all of the folks on this planet to remain locked of their houses, and other people can solely come out in the event that they take the cartel’s medication and preserve taking them again and again. I threw the script away. I imply, who was going to imagine that loopy thought? Being compelled to do medication? I try this voluntarily all day lengthy.”
The Twitterverse misplaced its collective thoughts.
The viewers didn’t know what to do, however Twitter was quickly ablaze (pardon the pun – I needed to do it) with shocked and offended commentary. The tweeted hyperventilation sounded one thing like, “Waaaah!”
Poor Woody, perhaps he ought to reduce on his leisure drug use.

Yeah, yeah. It’s all a “conspiracy concept.” Don’t pay any consideration to Woody Harrelson. He’s only a druggie, smoking that factor you all thought ought to be authorized final week.
What do you suppose?
It’s a reasonably protected guess Harrelson gained’t be invited on Hollywood dwell phases any time quickly. And he simply may discover his profession in jeopardy for daring to mock the Covid Cult. Individuals don’t prefer it when somebody well-known factors out that they’ve been swallowing a lie for 3 years. Excessive cognitive dissonance calls for that he be punished as a result of it’s extremely troublesome to just accept {that a} strongly held perception has all been a rip-off. To have that perception challenged is scary and disturbing, and infrequently ends in anger.
