This might be controversial but this is what happens when a society turns its pop culture personalities into sheikhs of its ideological consensus. A person who should have zero authority on any matter political or cultural can issue fatwas about this or that politic or throw around their wealth made from popular movies into whatever causes they wish. Movies are such a mediocre medium too to be given such legitimacy.
