Stewart just interviewed Hislop on satire, populism, comparisons between the UK & the USA etc. It's easy to find, free & worth a listen if any1's interested in that sort of thing.

Two men who've been at the top of their game for many years, looking at the same topics from UK/USA perspectives.

People get banned because of their opinions and words. Even if it's satire in their perception. Expecialy in a political setting. Some will call it bulling. What is the difference? It all in the perception of what you perceived. Personally you can call me every derogatory thing in a dictionary it wouldn't bother me. Some people it does. Some people express things differently. Just because they do not have the literally skills does not make them any less valuable to a discussion. To me if someone says " Fuck you" . They are just agitated. To others it's a personal insult they report then the fuck you person gets banned and even more agitated. There is no freedom of speech anymore. Unless you can properly express it.

I have my power in myself not public perception.i can literally give fuck all to others . I love the perception of conversations. Some make sense sometimes. But the majority are into themselves as it should be. You are your own master.

Populism, corruption & lies in the era of Murdoch. Populism was at the heart of the interview, I guess. + the difficulty & importance of facing that sort of thing with satire. (Since both Stewart & Hislop are prominent satirists.)

I can say something I consider satire yet others would deem offensive. Then they report as bullying. When it was read out of context. They get offend they win. Because they felt degraded even though that wasn't the intention. Yet that's is a social norm nowadays. Walk on egg shells as to not offend.

Say anything you want, but be aware words can have consequences. That's nothing new.

Lol personally I would I invite you over. Set a nice cozy bonfire. Listen to you face to face. Feed you delicious food and alcohol. Have a great time talking about life. I would rather that then trying to converse over a fucking keyboard and eulas.

A kind thought. I think you mentioned your moonshine in the past. Not sure I'd risk that. It'd probably be strong enough to flatten me.

I just like people with no hidden agendas. It's hard to express over the internet compared to in person.

I have a military mouth the cursing and put downs is natural. I can't truly express myself. I have to tip toe through the tulips just to be acceptable.

People online can have hidden agendas. But people you meet in real life can easily have hidden agendas too.
