Sharon Stone is slamming Americans she characterizes as “uneducated.”
Stone made a series of controversial comments about the state of American politics during a panel discussion at the Torino Film Festival in Italy, according to video footage posted Sunday on YouTube.
In an apparent reference to President-elect Donald Trump, Stone said, “We have to stop and think about who we choose for government and if, in fact, we are actually choosing our government or if the government is choosing itself.”
Stone supported outgoing Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election earlier this month. She added: “You know, Italy has seen fascism. Italy has seen these things, you guys. And you understand what happens. You have seen this before.”
Stone also told the crowd that “my country is in the midst of adolescence. Adolescence is very arrogant. Adolescence thinks it knows everything. Adolescence is naive and ignorant and arrogant. And we are in our ignorant, arrogant adolescence.”
“Americans who don’t travel, who 80% don’t have a passport, who are uneducated, are in their extraordinary naïveté,” Stone said. “What I would say is that the only way that we can help with these issues is to help each other.”
