Just a couple of days ago, Kevin Hart was all but forced to step down from hosting the Oscars over ‘homophobic’ tweets and jokes he had written YEARS ago, and then this morning we are reading stories about Heisman Trophy winner, Kyler Murray, being smeared for ‘homophobic’ tweets he wrote when he was FIFTEEN YEARS OLD.
15 years old. A kid.
*sigh*
It’s getting ri-damn-diculous with the social justice warrior mobs coming after anyone and everyone looking to destroy careers and livelihoods over tweets. And forget that people like Sarah Silverman and Amy Schumer have been tweeting GROSSLY homophobic things for years … they are apparently a protected class or some other nonsense.
What it ultimately boils down to is certain people are looking to be outraged about everything and it’s destroying our ability to communicate or even connect with one another. Ben Shapiro NAILED IT:
You don’t have to agree with people to think that politically-driven social media deplatforming is deeply dangerous to the discourse. Patreon’s targeting of Sargon of Akkad is just the latest example.

Bingo.
Is Alex Jones an unhinged maniac? Yes. Should he have been deplatformed because a bunch of emotional, reactive, rage harpies didn’t like what he was saying and or writing? No.
This isn’t difficult.
And that goes for schmucks and charlatans like Alex Jones and Milo, too.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 9, 2018
Word.
When Alex Jones was first deplatformed YOU were all for it because you thought it was only him… as I recall you said Twitter is a private owned company..now you see you’ll be next and you’re changing your tune.

Gonna call BS on this one.
No, I wasn’t. That’s a lie. https://t.co/jshXa3wPEO

Told ya’.
Note to pissy SJWs: once you forcibly expel everyone who isn’t in your little clique of woke saints, you’re going to find yourself facing down quite a few angry people who won’t work with you on your actual priorities.

Fair point.
And take a look at the people Ben triggered with just these few tweets:

We know you are but what are we?
Do you have to sit on phonebooks when you drive?

We can’t all be the welcoming beacon of inclusivity that you are, Ben.

This guy’s name … really? EL OH EL.
Once the masses find out they’ve been lied to about jobs, taxes, opportunity and God, you’re going to find yourself facing down quite a few angry people who won’t work with you on your actual priorities.

What did Reagan say? It’s not that these people are liars, they just know so much that isn’t true.
Something like that.
Dude you need to relax man.

Your mom needs to relax.
