the first example that comes to mind is dave chappelle. even though there are jokes in there that i don't agree with as a thought, i don't think there was anything that could be taken as an insult. the joke i meant was, he meets jim carrey during the shooting of man on the moon and jim carrey always stays in character even when they aren't shooting cause... method acting and shit. he says that he had to pretend like he was talking to andy kaufman even though he was talking to jim carrey and that is how he feels when he is talking to a trans person. i don't agree with the underlying thought but this isn't an insult and nothing to have a hissy fit over |

he's a hack but glancing at his wikipedia his career's doing fine? the special in question is still on netflix and he had a new one last year. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah do you think it should've been removed? and if so, why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't care |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so... so why did you say it's still on netflix |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because he's not been hurt by it and he's still making jokes? i wouldn't care if netflix had dropped him either but i'm not seeing how people complaining about a shitty bigoted joke by a very successful comedian is a significant problem. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if your point is that these sorts of incidents are making comedian reconsidering what sort of jokes they can make without backlash: who? where? why? is anyone being hurt by this? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why would he be hurt by it and why wouldn't he still making jokes? if you mean that some trans people were hurt and that's why it should be taken down, is that a valid reason to take it down? i think you know what i mean. anyone that has a public presence has to consider what they are saying or tweeting and they should be but the reason shouldn't be that they might be cancelled because their opinion isn't in line with what a minority group thinks it should be. the joke above is a good example of this. it's not an attack or an insult |

mermaidman you're watching too much dumb shit like theo von. stop it |

i think he's funny though. him, bobby lee, shane gillis and tim dillon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well they're getting you all worked up that little people are allowed to talk back to Famous Celebrities |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you sure that talking back and cancelling is the same thing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bro when they say you're canceled it's like getting a military medal, then you go on Joe Rogan to tell your story and get a 7 figure deal with a streaming service, or they just quietly reboot your movie series about the wizard school |

You are the living "crying laughing" emoji. Give yer head a wobble, mate 😂😂😂 |

yeah, sorry, no, i don't understand what you mean. everyone has to take responsibility for what they say, there's nothing new or controversial about that. sometimes misunderstandings happen, it's fine. i also think theo von is funny (when he wants to / i don't know much or care to know about his ghoulish influencer circle). it's a rare quality for right wing comedians; so often the only thing they know to do is project pure spite and that's just unpleasant to watch. like they're hurting themselves. it's hard to be funny without at least a little bit of humility or selfdeprecation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also i mean to be very clear i asked you for a specific exemple of a "cancellation" over something a bit trivial and the one instance you give me is a guy not getting cancelled after making a bit of a bigoted joke? i don't know man. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know what *did* get canceled though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
god's plan |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah now it's more like that i guess |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he did take responsibility. he said he wasn't sorry about anything he said. what does he have to do? stop being a comedian cause you think his joke was bigoted? yeah he wasn't cancelled in the end i guess, i don't know. i don't have another example sorry. i'd have to think or |

I'll tell one thing that's come out of all this. I've bought a lot more Gillette products lately. And I don't even shave. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don’t understand. So he hasn’t apologised, his special was never pulled off Netflix, and he had a new one out two years later. Is this supposed to be an exemple of the excesses of cancel culture? Like not to mention this is approaching the line of being fandom rubbish. I genuinely don’t understand what your argument is here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is it something like you think the only thing you should ever be able to say to someone you disagree with is “I disapprove of what you say, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it”? I’m genuinely confused. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i said he wasn't cancelled in the end, i guess. what do you want me to say? i googled for the sake of it and it says "While there have been intense protests, calls for boycotts, and demands from activist groups (such as in Santa Rosa, California) to cancel other appearances, First Avenue remains the only venue that actually pulled the plug on a specific date, which was then relocated rather than completely called off." so he was tried to be cancelled but they weren't successful |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don’t think you’ll be able to make me care about Dave Chappelle’s career and his PR but are you under the impression that this is all over one (1) joke about not understanding trannies? |
||||||||
|

next you’ll tell me graham linehan was cancelled because of one sort of insensitive IT Crowd episode |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tbh i didn't watch any of the full shows, i watched a couple of youtube compilations and that's it. i picked the one that i thought might be most problematic but i might be wrong i don't know who graham linehan is |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i watched it back when it happened though. i'm watching it again and he says that transgender vaginas are not the same as a real vagina but so fucking what? why would any transgender care |

right-wingers unfortunately are uncanceble. the only way toget close to it, is to point out how shit their jokes are, youtube channels Elephant Graveyard and Trill Maher do a good job at that |

DISPATCHES FROM THE CULTURE WARS Nail art's historical and creative roots are linked back to black, Latino, and Asian communities and the suggestion that bare nails are now a sign of high status could stigmatise bold manicures, they say. "That trend really promotes blankness and this kind of sameness and erasure of culture and identity that is so important to black and brown communities," beauty journalist Kristina Rodulfo tells the BBC. "They are often called elegant or tasteful, and these are often usually euphemisms that perpetuate white supremacist standards of beauty." |

I didn't write it, and it's not on *clutches ethically-sourced pearls* Spiked, but "the world's most trusted news source" the BBC. They saw fit to run with it and put it out there as a given. |
