In a world of wokeness, Ricky Gervais sticks out like a sore thumb. And that’s a good thing.
Check out what he tweeted recently:
The world began to crumble when feelings started overruling facts.

Dude. Where have we heard that before?
Facts don't care about your feelings.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) February 5, 2016

It’s happening:
Can you imagine if Ben Shapiro and Ricky Gervais teamed up? The forces of wokeness wouldn’t stand a chance. Just look — they’re already getting upset:
Did you just go full Ben Shapiro

“Facts don’t care about feelings“ from a legitimate Zionist believing he is one of God‘s chosen people.

"facts don't care about your feelings" says the guy who lives his life according to a 4000-year-old religion

Actually, 5,000-plus. But who’s counting?
I dunno pal, maybe they're both important, and paraphrasing a guy who influenced mass shooters isn't really The One.

You must be the only human conceited enough to see a mass shooting and go "hmm now is the type to resurrect my shitty Ben Shapiro lite opinions"

How did a very funny bloke deteriorate so quickly into the non-racist version of Ben Shapiro?

So are you like, a full-on right winger now? Because you must know the kinds of people this phrasing aligns you with

What kinds of people would that be?

The Wokeness Brigade wants so badly to put Ricky Gervais into a box. And they can’t do it. Which pisses them off even more.
Wait. I'm right wing because I think denying things like evolution, the holocaust and climate change is stupid because it contradicts the evidence? That's a weird conclusion Simon. https://t.co/r2Std4oWiY
— Ricky Gervais (@rickygervais) August 5, 2019
And we’re here for all of it.

Update:
To be fair, anyone can favor facts over feelings. It's not a thing specific to me. In fact, I think everyone should! https://t.co/ZwLTBEJuaW

Fair enough!
