PRO-SHEEN PROTESTORS START GATHERING IN MAJOR CITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
March 5 2011
Los Angeles, CA – There is little doubt that the early days of 2011 have been a particularly unstable time in the world. Civil and labour protests in Africa, the Middle East, and the United States were not even on the radar of the majority of pundits and
analysts, but that is exactly what has happened. Out and out rebellion has overtaken much of the world in 2011, cascading across the globe and affecting virtually all areas of human culture.
There is perhaps no better evidence of that growing rebelliousness than in the ongoing saga of Charlie Sheen, the multi-millionaire actor whose revolt against his bosses, and by relation the entire Hollywood system, has became as compelling a tale as any in this year of revolt. As those conflicts continue, particularly in Wisconsin, Tripoli, and the Hollywood Hills, it’s not clear if these events are isolated or if a new cascade of rebellion is overtaking the world, becoming very rapidly the way we do business. Regardless of the long term consequences it has become clear that all sides in these various debates have started to dig in and fight for the long haul. That is no more evident than in the growing support for Sheen who has garnered millions of new fans and growing protest movements across the country.
“We are here to support Charlie and ‘Two and Half Men’. Charlie has shown the world the real face of Hollywood and is showing us all how to win at life in real ways. He isn’t pretending to be someone, he is someone and that is why we are here supporting him,” said one protestor in Los Angeles. “Charlie has shown us not only what is, but also what is possible and the very least we can do is support him in his goals and ambitions. We all have tiger blood, we are all winners and we want Charlie to know that we are here to support him.”
Like Sheen, many of the LA protestors are also unemployed however most are not millionaires.
“This has certainly been an interesting phenomenon all across the world, the way in which people have sort of joined in on these protests and engaged these issues without any kind of central leadership. True, in the case of 
Sheen they are sort of rallying around one person but he is not leading them, they are forming of their own accord,” said Scrape TV Sociology analyst Andrew Keep. “There is certainly an aspect of the ‘Gang Mentality’ to much of this, where people are joining because other people joined and it just kind of rolls together but there seems to be a universal ideology amongst these supporters. They are not simply joining because their friends and families have done so, they do have a genuine passion for the issues themselves, whether it be freedom from dictators or multi-million dollar paycheques.”
Sheen was reportedly making more than one million dollars an episode for ‘Two and a Half Men’ before the season was cancelled.
“Like the fruit cart vendor in Tunisia, Sheen has become a lightning rod for cultural change. Sure we aren’t seeing all kinds of other stars coming out and joining his cause but the people are starting to join on the streets and demanding change, and that will inevitably push a few celebrities to relinquish a bit of their control,” continued Keep. “This, like the events in Africa and the Middle East, seems to be totally organic and driven by a real desire for change which indicates that maybe some good will come of it in the long run but we will have to wait and see. Many millionaires like to keep making millions and don’t roll over like Mubarak.”
Mubarak reportedly has housecat blood flowing through his veins.
