I did but am unfamiliar about the tweets you referred to.

The Tweets Outlaw Pete put up last week of their Twitter feed.

Mocking fat women and asking Girl to show their Tits.

Feminism at its best right?

It must be hell living with no sense of irony and a complete inability to understand satire. The world must be so literal to you.

Lmao. Of course its satire when that prick does it.

Jesus the majority of comments on here that are not so much criticism as pure hate and dare I say good old fashioned Irish begrudgery.

I for one find Blindboy to be refreshing, funny, and thought provoking. Couldn’t give a **** he wears a bag on his head, each to their own. Love my weekly podcast hug!

He’s a prick now? You don’t think it was satire, I can’t help you, but is there any need to call him a prick?

I am really shocked to see so many negative opinions of blindboy. I’ve listened to most episodes of his podcast and he is an interesting, well read, humourous, and above all decent person.

I don’t agree with him on a lot. I cringe when he blows smoke up Louise ONeills hole, and when he talks about masculine toxicity.

But there is nothing wrong with that. He genuinely comes across as not being rigid on his opinions and obviously has a vast curiosity that he loves feeding.

It's Toxic masculinity, you queer

Congratulations. On a thread of stupid posts, that’s an absolute winner.

Barry Chuckle did that, may God rest his soul.

Yet no one thought him am oracle. You seem to.

Listen, he can Satire all he likes in your eyes. If you want believe it go ahead.

I wasn't one being 'stud' here at all.

Typo corrected.

The stupidity of your post remains. I’d jump off a cliff if he said so? Come one.

What evidence is there I think he’s an oracle? Can you quote a post where I praise his ability to predict the future? Or even accurately analyse the present?

I find him entertaining. That’s it.

Fuc*ing hell. Who called him an oracle? Fans of his are entitled to call you out on your blanket criticism of him because of A) using the word feminism

wearing a bag.

You have decided that everyone who likes his podcast/book/music or anything in between has been somehow blindsided into agreeing with every word he speaks & is bowing down to him as some kind of guru. Absolutely not the case for anyone I know who is a fan. Very little of the criticism levelled at BB here comes from a place of actual familiarity with his work so forgive us if we feel the need to defend him from such peurile nonsense as comparing him to recently deceased and, at best, mediocre comedian for kids, Barry Chuckle.

My post was just a bit of Satire.

I thought you would know that. Tut tut.

Are you wearing a plastic bag ?

Perhaps that's the key ?

It’s always satire when it’s “my side”. Just like the racist NYT journalist...

People are allowed to not like him, even hate him, call him a prick or whatever. It’s all opinion.
Bono gets called every name under the sun here and nobody bats an eyelid.

Love Bono as a musician, massive U2 fan since Boy.

Have to say very grateful to him for pontificating during the 360 tour at Croker and showing a video of Desmond Tutu and a load of kids.

Had time for a slash and a pint.

I was at that too

I like U2, not their biggest fan by any stretch of the imagination. Bono is a sanctimonious prick though and so is Blindboy and I did enjoy a few podcasts at the start and some of The Rubberbandits stuff is decent.

Spend pages insulting Blindboy and fans of Blindboy.

Get called out on BS.

Claim it was satire for the lolz.

Have I got that right? Rank stupidity.

No just you

It’s satire when it’s actually satire. It’s not that complicated a concept. Would you like it explained in pictures?

Is this incomplete sentence a response to me?

No I’m grand thanks. I don’t even know what you’re claiming is satire here as I only read the last couple of pages but I wouldn’t trust your judgment on satire when you tried to give Sarah Jeong the benefit of the doubt on 6 years of racist tweets being satire...

Lad chill out.

People are entitled to opinions. You may not like them, but people have shown why they don't and while you might buy into it and think it's funny others see it different.

Best of luck to you if you want support him or follow him or whatever. I'm not going go down your childish behaviour and I should not have followed it myself.

Now if you want continue insulting me go ahead be the Big Man

That’s the stuff. Kudos to you. Drag other debates into this thread.
