Who gives a shit. It’s just speech. I know you guys crack down on speech but our constitution protected speech as the know it is the bedrock of freedom.

Well people DO get arrested for jokes on the internet....look at Mark Meechan (Count Dankula). He's more of a lefty than anything else and people branded him a Nazi for teaching his girlfriend's dog to do "heil"....do people think "Oh shit the Nazi's have a pug, there's no bloody stopping them now!"


And if that's the case when is John Cleese going to be arrested for his Hitler schtick on Fawlty Towers? Is there a statute of limitations on Nazi jokes?

The thing is anything goes in comedy or at least it did. I was watching Gervais last night mocking the name change of The Spastics Society to Scope. Now obviously Ricky Gervais has nothing personally against anyone with something like Cerebral Palsy. It is just a comedy routine. Sure feelings might get 'hurt', but at the end of the day a JOKE is a JOKE. If you don't want to listen, then don't listen to Ricky Gervais. It's a big world with lots of speech out there. Hate speech law is something that needs to be abolished. As long as someone is not threatening violence or outright telling porkies, then you should be free to say what you want in the crucible of ideas.

Some of Gervais' funniest stuff is when he pokes fun of the Bible. I consider myself Christian but I'll still have a laugh at that. The bit that irks me is not everyone joins in which makes me wonder why of course. Are you that serious that you never laugh? Are you too insecure in your faith? Is your faith too good for some levity? Do you think your religion is above all and can't be mocked?


Hate speech is bullshit. Let people say bad things at least you know who is thinking that shit. You can make a mental note to avoid them. And who decides what "hate speech" actually is? The SPLC and ADL and CAIR and NAACP, and La Raza and GLAAD cover a few bases, but not all and they aren't objective either.

I always highlight double standards and you cannot hide from the fact that a man had money taken from his bank by the state for a joke and another woman punched a man and another chap physically assaulted a man and seemingly not a problem. I cannot reconcile that and I think most people looking at that would feel the same way.

I think Robinson is hated by the establishment and media and the reason he is shut down is because people do like him. Otherwise, why not let him dig a bigger hole? He did them over like with Panodrama, he draws crowds, was huge on Facebook. The only way they can stop him is to silence him but along the way the media and system degrades itself further. People are not that dumb.

People don't like Tommy Robinson and don't want to hear from him because he's working class. He's just your typical run-of-the-mill 9 to 5er down at the pub going to see the football matches having a pint. But the problem is he dares to talk politics and that's not for Working Class People that's for the cultured Elite.

It's a very similar to why people hate Trump he's nouveau riche he's tacky he's Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack. In other words he doesn't belong in their world and at the end of the day that's the major problem.

I just finished reading Bret Easton Ellis new book White and the disdain that these Coastal Elites have for flyover country rural America is oozing out of them and I can only think that's worse in Britain.

Want a laugh? Carl Benjamin (Sargon) goes out, talks to random voters, debates random voters ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO DISAGREE WITH HIM, and what does Labour immediately do? They follow his route, they don't debate or even give original thoughts but they're the "ruling class" so they speak in an erudite manner and have that affected haughty accent and spout platitudes. They look and sound AWFUL! Carl Benjamin could be a political somebody he's got some smarts to him. He'd be a very interesting MEP and I'd certainly pay attention should he be elected

You just have to listen to the middle class champagne socialists in the media, when they imitate racists/crims/morons they do cockney/working-class accents. The hypocrisy is blatantly obvious. Their jokes are "edgy" not racist. Their violence is justified/funny not thuggery. They advocate "punch a nazi" whilst disgusted by football hooligans.
