The '
La La Land
' filmmaker
Damien Chazelle has made his debut on Twitter to raise his voice against US President
Donald Trump's administration for promoting white supremacy. In a series of tweets, the 32-year-old filmmaker said the supporters of America's 45th president must see that he is "openly endorsing Nazism" and they will realise they have been cheated by the President Of The United States in the garb of promises.
"(I) Decided to join Twitter because I feel a responsibility to add my voice to the chorus. The Trump administration is openly endorsing Nazism and white supremacy. It's that simple... "
"That voters lured by Trump's economic promises will finally wake up. And that we as a country will learn from this," Chazelle wrote.
The Oscar-winning director said anyone who is in a position of power and stays silent is complicit. He also appealed to the Republican Party to impeach Trump. Chazelle said he "might be naive" in registering his protest against the US president on social media but he would continue to contribute in making America a better society.
The 'La La Land' filmmaker, later, questioned the authorities if any arrests were made in the
Charlottesville
rally organised by white nationalists in Virginia last week, that claimed the life of a counter demonstrator,
Heather Heyer
.
"That is the state of free speech in America today," he concluded.
