| Topic | Guardians star Dave Batista is not ok with James Gunn's firing |
| Lorenzo_2003 07/21/18 11:48:28 AM #56: | spudger posted... we need to combat this outrage culture bullshit Good luck with that. Even here on CE there are tons of members who posted fair next when people were being fired or kicked out of school years ago. Some of us knew this outrage would be weaponized to the point that it would become a common tactic, but most just laughed and mocked the concerns. Well, now here we are, and people are frantically deleting their posts from years and years ago, but its too little too late. And were starting to see special pleading, where people are making excuses for celebrity B, even though they joined the charge to tear down celebrity A. This offensive tweet isnt really offensive because they totally didnt mean it. But that other tweet from that person I dont like? Clearly, they meant that, so hang em. Nope. You cant do double standards without looking like a hypocritical jackass. So, yeah, good luck getting the outrage culture under control. I think that ship has sailed, though. (Note that Im not pointing this message directly at you, but more thinking out loud.) --- ... ... Copied to Clipboard! |
