I may not get it exactly but I like Rosanne and Louis CK and I don’t think someone should be embarrassed and fired because they said some racist **** or bothered a black person. It’s bad but it shouldn’t ruin your whole life. The left is pretty Orwellian. The whole film everything and put it on youtube

Like that lady who tried to scoot off that black girl selling water. If I was sitting in my apartment with the window open and heard her selling water all ****ing day I’d be hella sick of it too. I wouldnt call 5-0 though

IDGAF about Rosanne but I agree with the Louis CK part. That's mostly on the corporation. If the business said "**** that, we'll do it anyway." what would anybody do about it? Mel Gibson has said and done worse and has never been canceled.

Even then, if either you or me did anything any of them did we're more likely to be fired. This is still not exclusive to the left. The right do it all the time like with Nick Cannon.

IDK how Orwellian it is to film your interactions with people to expose something nefarious especially when repercussions are more than likely minimal. Well, when you see the government using video to arrest protesters that's pretty Orwellian.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

Yeah - filming everything and punishing people for transgressions isn’t Orwellian at all.

The way you police the word "Orwellian" is Orwellian. Come on man!
