  • I don’t know how feminist I’d consider him. As I recall, he and Stephen Fry both drifted right in their politics over the past decade or so:

    “the problem with American communism, which is woke, is better described as American Marxism. And what it is is instead of trying to redistribute wealth, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to want to do, they want to redistribute status. And that is a recipe for fucking madness” -Jimmy Carr

    Stephen Fry ended up praising Jordan Peterson or some such, Carr started talking anti-woke politics on podcasts after being “cancelled” by a heckler.

    From a student news website:

    “Jimmy Carr has built his career on his deliberately offensive style of comedy – nothing is off limits and nobody is safe. His new special, aptly-titled His Dark Material, is supposed to epitomise this ethos, as Carr spends an hour bombarding his audience with endless quips about hipsters, vegans, gingers, women (including his own girlfriend, who sounds like a very lucky lady), victims of sexual abuse, little people, and anybody else he feels hasn’t been at the receiving end of enough grief lately. His pièce de resistance comes in the form of a section at the end of the special filled with jokes Carr brazenly calls his “career enders”, in which he says that few people know about the fact that an estimated half a million Roma people were murdered during the Holocaust because nobody wants to “talk about the positives”. One man’s suffering is another man’s slapstick.”

    He tried to defend the Holocaust joke by saying it brings attention to non-jewish victims of the Holocaust which earned him every comedians highest achievement when going anti-woke - being defended by Jeremy Clarkson.



  • If Greenland becomes a super power with nuclear weapons, they could fire those nukes at the entire US… Wherever you live, this could effect you. You could say Greenland may be the greatest threat the world has ever seen, posing as a small incapable region of Denmark.

    This is why I have decided to preemptively send troops and private oil companies in to stop this. I’m calling it my big beautiful invasion, it’s gonna be peaceful and we’re gonna make them pay for it.

    Guess who’s gonna pay me to invade them? I have all these guys, big business guys, they’re oil guys so they’re all really rich… And they’re saying to me “Mr. Trump! Mr.Trump! It’s okay Mr. Trump, we’ll pay for it”.

    I’m kidding! He doesn’t talk this way anymore. These days he gurgles and sounds like a dementia patient who just shat his pants…

    …because he’s a dementia patient who’s just shat his pants. He’s also ALWAYS BEEN an overtly corrupt insider. Voters just didn’t realize it because they were upset at the establishment system and desperately wanted something different!














  • This is still all part of the “what if we call him drumf” left who think words and reacts are important wins. In the past it’s been called slacktivism, and isn’t widely thought of as effective.

    Certainly not as effective as treating the actual causes, which are primarily the under servicing and disillusionment of voters. A phenomena democrats have helped with over time.

    It’s only people like Mamdani, AOC, amd Bernie who have helped. There are ALOT of politicans and people in the “what if we call him drumf” for four years crowd.

    A lot more than that has been needed and called for, for a lot longer.
