The Obamas and Susan Rice are silent on Netflix’s Cuties

A perverted director making a perverted film to earn the plaudits of the perverted cinema industry is just another day at Sundance. The mind-boggling A1 news story from Netflix’s distribution of Cuties is entire media reflexively defending the film featuring cinematography luxuriating on the nonexistent curves of twerking 11-year-olds and the striking silence the Obamas, who have a production deal with Netflix, and board member Susan Rice.

To date, the only quasi-famous Democrats I have seen go on the record to denounce Cuties are former presidential contender Tulsi Gabbard and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s daughter Christine. Another critic has been Elizabeth Bruenig, the resident socialist of the New York Times opinion page. Every other lefty wasting space on the internet who decided to weigh in on the matter came to the film’s defense, and Rice and the Obamas, the most high profile personalities attached to the streaming company, have remained mum on the matter.
