Man, if I was trying to write a satire about the current state of political affairs, "Protester against genocide gets put in a headlock by a bystander while the crowd chants 'JERRY! JERRY!'", I'd be told the 'Jerry Springer Show' comparison was a bit too on the nose.
PugJesus
Was that before or after the Bee Movie?
The audience immediately began booing the heckler and chanting “Jerry! Jerry!” as another bystander wrestled the protester into a headlock.
Fucking what
“This is exciting. I like this,” the comic said as the original protester was escorted out of the venue. “I like a little Jew hate to spice up the show.”
Fucking what
"The only democracy in the Middle East", Israel supporters say...
Cut 'em loose. Fuck 'em both.
Wow, I'm so glad that the online left is now into outright rape apologia. "There was only a preliminary investigation because he fled the day he was going to be arrested, therefore, this is clearly a false accusation" My favorite bit is where the article talks about how the woman accusing him of rape never actually accused him of rape, and then outright admits
She says that's not a problem. He could sleep with her in her bed. Consensual sex occurred that night. With condom. But she says Assange intentionally broke the condom during intercourse. If that is the case, it is of course a sexual offense, so-called stealthing.
But hey, believe all women, until they say something against someone we like.
Fucking repulsive.
"He was tortured because he stayed in an embassy of his own free will to avoid being arrested" is another fucking gem.
Some people have no fucking decency.
More than 300 human rights lawyers and law professors from numerous countries sharply criticized Melzer in response. In an open letter, they said that on the issue of sexual violence, Melzer's intervention was "both legally erroneous and harmful to the development and protection of human rights law." Melzer said he stood by his statement that the evidence collected in Sweden was not a basis for investigating the suspected rape.[142][143][144]
One of the women interviewed by Melzer later criticised him and demanded his resignation. She said that by defining how a "proper rape-victim" should act, Melzer was engaging in victim blaming and that his report was partially untrue and defamatory.[145]
"Believe all women, except the ones who say anything against One Of Our's(tm)"
Not quite how I remember that phrase going.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure who the artist is. If anyone finds out, I'll add it to the title.
Sometimes I'm surprised by how eloquent I can sound.
I'm rarely surprised by how stilted and incoherent I can sound. I'm used to that.
Even if it is referring to right-wing assholes, the US is one of the safer places in the world for LGBT folk. That's not high praise of the US so much as damnation for most of the rest of the world, but either way, one is definitely not in "FAR more danger" inside the USA than "almost anywhere else".
My favorite part is where he was the least funny member of a very funny show in literally every episode.
