Thread: Steve Martins tweet

  1. #1

    Steve Martins tweet

    So Steve Martain has had a " backlash " with his tweet about Carrie

    “When I was a young man, Carrie Fisher was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen, She turned out to be witty and bright as well.”

    I guess the Lefties, LGBT's and a.n.other faux Outrage lot were the main cause of the " backlash "

    I have just read a tweet saying it " objectified her "

    when will it end ? ? ? will we ever get back to being able to say anything without offending someone somewhere ? ? ?

    Sounds like you're suffering from a bit of fauxrage yourself.

    I'd like to see this backlash? Assuming they there was actually a backlash and not just one or two disapproving tweets.

    Lefties seem to have a current fetish about anything 'LGBT' though, it's like your new black friend.

    I have mates who black, gay and even a couple of gingers - none of them or me take offence at what anyone says. If you do take offence at the nearest opportunity - you shouldn't be on social media
    you associate with the gingers??

    His statement is logically correct, you cannot determine a person's intelligence and personality just from their looks. I'd be inclined to blame the education system for churning out legions of dumb halfwits

    I googled it, and the only faux outrage I can see is from people offended by the alleged response to his tweet. It's like a great big , non existent, cyberspace faux outrage roundabout with everyone getting offended by everyone else.

    pulling toes and ankle right back helps as it stretches the tendon, you can get a special boot to wear at night, i had cortezon injection in mine once, i had it off and on for years in either foot, caused by standing all day in my job, its called policeman heel
