President of the Human Rights’ Foundation Thor Halvorssen has finally reacted to Cameron Díaz’s recent fashion faux pas in Peru, where she carried a bag bearing the most famous quote of Mao Zedong in a country that lost 70,000 lives to terrorists inspired by the Chinese Communist leader. The guy ranted to Page Six of the New York Post, refusing to accept Díaz’s apology and calling her out on her ignorance—something we’re sure has never been done before in the brainy actress’s career:

It is bad enough that Diaz wears a bag quoting history’s most prolific butcher, but what’s even worse is that she is of Cuban heritage and really should know something about the true history of communism.

He went on to say she would’ve faced “career annihilation” had the slogan come from a somebody who had persecuted the Jews or (gasp!) Latinos. Wait a minute; how are we supposed to take a know-it-all named Thor seriously? Or, for that matter, expect more than a PR-scripted apology from a star who represents American ditziness at its finest? Screw it: we’re going out to buy a cute Ché t-shirt.
