Have seen Paul Mescal actor on Normal People coming under a lot of fire on Twitter due to an anonymous reddit post (filled with factual inaccuracies) stating that he was a homophobe in school.

The twitterati have taken it as gospel and are running with it.

I actually find it so sickening how some people nowadays are so keen to wag the finger and assert their moral superiority and wokeness that they'll happily swallow any story (no matter how unsubstantiated) just to get their licks in.

Cancel culture and trial by social media has entirely done away with the idea of due process or the presumption of innocence until proven otherwise.

It's mob stuff. And it disgusts me.

Homophobes .... for the soul ( sung to the tune of Novacaine by Beck )

It is tough out there. Ask Kevin Hart ........ or Bridgette Bardot.

Is " Queer Power " acceptable yet? I am just curious to know ( oops sorry pun alert).

Let the witch hunt commence.

Seemingly using the terminology homophobe is under the queer eye. ( sorry oops again, just grabbing my coat ," Taxi " )

" Gaycist "

How appalling.

n a 2015 article for Slate, John Sherman lamented that the term “gaycist” or “gaycism” should replace “homophobia.” The term had appeared on the TV show “Happy Endings,” referring to a character who thought his two gay friends should get along simply because they were both gay. To Sherman, the term was more precise than “homophobia”:

To be fair, I don't see many people on Twitter taking it as gospel. Certainly nobody who I follow anyway.

Me, but then I was a very confused bisexual throughout secondary school.

The problem is that modern society takes many minor infractions and equates them with the most serious of offenses. There's no scale anymore. Everyone is so sensitive and needs to be protected from the sharp edges of the world.

Yes, it's uncomfortable and hard to hear all the crap that guys say about gay people... but it was a different society back then (30 years ago). Now, homosexuality is far more accepted, and if young boys are a bit insulting about it... so what? I didn't turn out badly because I was exposed to such opinions or insults growing up.

I really wish people would get past this need to protect "everyone" from whatever is uncomfortable. That's life. Some people don't like gay people. Shocker. Forcing them isn't going to do anything but make things worse over time, as resentment is far longer lasting.

Like yourself I'm bi too, but I was never homophobic or laughed at the gay jokes and banter.
My grandmother died in 1987 her best friend Dinjoe was swinging from the chandaleers, an extremely flamboyant dairy farmer from North Kerry. He used to watch out for her after my grandfather died.
I told Dinjoe he was like a woman and she got very protective of him, and explained that some men are born that way and it's not their fault.

She was a cool grandmother, an old pagan she had no time for the church used to tell my mum to turn off Jim will fix it, because she said Jimmy Saville was a dirty article.

She was dam right, he was dirty and a big article both metaphorically and on the media.

She called me a right rouge and she's right about that, and I'll always be a rogue...

It's definitely not hip to be square

Neither did I. However, I did laugh at the retard jokes, the mama jokes, the dead baby jokes, etc. Dark humor is a very strong part of Irish culture, and while it is offensive to some, overall, it depends on the context, and most importantly, the intent.

In hindsight, the gay jokes would probably have dried up had I told my friends that I was bisexual.. or perhaps I would have had less friends. Dunno. In any case, it's all part of growing up, because the world is not a sterile, clean, perfect place. Since then, I've been on the receiving of all manner of jokes/insults, as have most people... it's simply something we should learn to ignore or counter. I learned how to argue...

I learned to enjoy demolishing people's offensive remarks with logic and it worked wonderfully to show people to be the idiots that they are. I probably wouldn't have learned all that if I hadn't been forced to, due to my circumstances...

I was watching Demolition Man the other day... remember the society that is the backdrop for the movie? Ugh. That's the kind of controlled society these woke people want.. <shudders>

I know a guy who calls the woke shower, meat golums.

Basically like golum out of the hobbit story.
I'm fairness he's not far wrong.
A lot of these woke lads are white knights, creepy incel types.

They'd ask you about someone, and they would usually say, do you know so and so and what's their story.

What they're really saying is, I came across a person called Jack or Jackie and you might know them.
They're in your neck of the woods, PLEASE TELL ME THEIR VULNERABILITIES...

I think it is very important that the woke receive the dystopia they crave, I for one have vowed to upset the malign of the eternally woke, I am proud of that.

For, speak your mind and you may be cancelled. Say nothing and you'll live -- at least a while. And lying cancelled in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell the woke that they may take our freedom of speech, but they'll never take our freedom?

Wheres I feel they were originally agents of Russia, China, etc who had an interest in destabilising the societies of western nations through the encouragement of identity politics, reverse discrimination, intolerance, lobby groups, minority rights issues, etc. (but now it's gained enough momentum, that it's continuing without their involvement) Notice how most of this stuff doesn't happen outside of western nations or those closely aligned with them?

I think your idea is more correct.

Have you seen this interview from a Soviet defector? If what he says is untrue, its one hell of a co-incidence.

Yeah, I saw the intro for the new Call of Duty, and the subsequent surge in interest for this guy.

Still, I've had this opinion long before I saw his interviews.

cis heteropatriarchal - I binged and googled here, no shouting please, I just like to keep ahead of the curve on tolerable speech.

Seemingly - or so I have read -

"In feminist theory, heteropatriarchy (etymologically from heterosexual and patriarchy) is a socio-political system where (primarily) cisgender males and heterosexuals have authority over cisgender females and over other sexual orientations and gender identities. It is a term that emphasizes that discrimination exerted both upon women and LGBTQ people has the same sexist social principle"

I have also had to bing and google " cis gender " , ( I am so out of touch , apols etc )

"Cisgender (sometimes cissexual, often abbreviated to simply cis) is a term for people whose gender identity matches their sex assigned at birth. For example, someone who identifies as a woman and was assigned female at birth is a cisgender woman."

If this thread is currently being followed by cis-genders..... is it a biased thread which needs to be ignored, chastised and/or cancelled? ( by for example feminists who do not adhere to the " Cis " agenda "

I identify as a "cis" btw. If you are non-cis and don't agree with my thoughts or sentiments the report button is too the left. But don't forget that, it is not the lie, it is the lie within the liar that counts....

Cordell · 28-09-2020 4:38pm

was assigned female at birth

Interesting way of avoiding to say "born female".

I'd say it's because it implies that everyone is assigned, and this is what creates the narrative in which reassignment is something that is possible.

Not sure how anyone who isn't either being willfully obtuse or genuinely thick-as-pigshit would boil what she said down to that.

The problem with debating (as opposed to listening and exchanging ideas) is that it's a competitive practice that usually takes place between polar opposites, reducing the exchange of ideas to a game where there is a perceived winner and a loser, both sides constantly trying to land a punch using various tried and tested tactics.

Errashareesh · 28-09-2020 7:10pm

What is she saying so? And really, the "thick as pig****" comment - is that necessary?

She comes across horribly. Being a liberal doesn't prevent a person from being a truly nasty bully. And that has become very apparent lately.

And "cis" as a pejorative - they're gas. The evil cis people.

What advantage?

IMHO it's all gobbledygook. People looking for attention, and seeking to piss on other peoples lives. Extremely few people are genuinely transgender, and people are making a mountain out of a mountain out of a molehill by pandering to this rubbish. Transgender people can call themselves whatever they wish.. like any cult does... like I'm sure the Mormons have their own terminology to describe themselves, but there's no expectation on the whole world to follow suit, and yet, there's likely more Mormons in the world, than Transgendered people. I know a few transgendered people and they don't seek recognition or support any of this nonsense.

Americans... they have a lot of answer for by promoting all manner of rubbish.
