Reply to: Louis CK & Kevin Spacey...

Every time someone mentions culture they reach for their guns.

And they've got lots and lots and lots and lots and lots.

Apparently the Parkland dig was about those kids being paraded all over TV by pro gun control politicians.

Very risky but that's his thing. Apparently he said a lot worse when everyone loved him and they all found it hilarious...

Would you say the same for the Wailers and the "must be a Muslim", "must be a leftie", etc every time something bad happens?

Absolutely

[WTFH]

The point of this post is that trial by mob and PC police is losing its edge and they know it. I still believe these matters are best left to the legally appointed authorities and not to be dictated by angry hordes who will misuse their 'power' in other cases to achieve political gains.

You sound very triggered. Perhaps you should have a cup of tea and a lie down.

Is that what Kevin Spacey said to his victims?

It works the way it's working now - everyone says what they want, the public decides what's important or not. As pointed out at the beginning of this thread which was essentially saying "Yay the public don't GAS about the snowflake 'laws' and it's showing".

Snowflakes and their opposites can all say WTF they want.

That would mean the end of the General forum.

Criminal matters are for the police. Matters of tastefulness can and are judged by the public, where they can be called out.

Or does freedom of speech only work one way for you?

If the choice is snowflakery or turning a blind eye to a pedo, which is better?

I'd hardly say being offended about KS is virtue signalling or snowflakery. This isn't someone who once used a racial slur when a teenager being hounded decades later as "a racist".

I've never heard of Louis CK. Just googled him, and wish I hadn't bothered.

Are back and are coming to trigger snowflakes in 2019.

I think some pennies might be dropping for the virtue signallers:



Happy New Year!

*Discalimer* - Of course I don't condone crimes committed by the above but trial by mob and PC culture needs a serious punch in the face, let's let courts and the authorities decide on methods of finding people guilty/not-guilty and dealing out punishments shall we?

Name calling already? That was easy...

Ahem.

TBH you come across as an inadequate misanthrope.

I do take enjoyment from watching snowflakes get upset that the wider population doesn't care about their tantrums. Bit of a guilty pleasure I must admit.

He's triggered by it.
