Tom Hanks throughout the monologue
āTom Hanks hoping everyone forgot about āBachelor Partyāā
That image is the stuff of Islamic extremist propagandists wet dreams. Seriously somewhere out there the head of recruiting for ISIS had a huge orgasm when he saw that picture. āSee we told you they were the modern reincarnation of the crusadersā¦ā That picture is going to still be in heavy rotation with that crowd in 2050.
That five-fold cross is the coat of arms of the crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem. I am not really sure it goes that well with the Trump administration message of supporting Israelā¦
Zero conflict unfortunately. Crazy evangelical Christians in this country have been some of the Israeli far rights biggest fundraisers for the last 2-3 decades. They think supporting a one state solution in Israel will hurry along the end times.
I am pretty sure Israel would not be happy with them showing up on their doorstep claiming that the land is actually theirs.
But they know that wonāt happen and so do weā¦ so why does it matter what the so called intention is? Letās not pretend like these dimwits know the origins and true meanings of their symbols.
A whole bunch of them go completely nuts with the nazi symbols without actually knowing anything at all about German history besides far right propaganda. Totally re-purposing a symbol to mean whatever they want it to mean is super standard for these people.
This is the whole reason why holocaust denial is a thing. Itās so that they can appropriate the symbology, trigger absolutely everyone they donāt like, and then make up new definitions for things for their low level members.
Those black and white videos of dead bodies being bulldozed into mass graves in the immediate aftermath of the holocaust arenāt something the far right shows their rank and file everā¦ they also conveniently forget to show what happened to the human beings who followed that ideology off a cliff and got brutally killed at Stalingrad or starved to death in Soviet POW camps.
Absolutely no reason why the crusaders symbols would be interpreted by far right people as being for invading Israel, even though thatās what it originally stood for. For them itās 100% about hating and triggering muslims. Not saying anti semitism isnāt alive and well with them, but they actually love the idea of Israel because it fits their world view of groups being homogeneous and separate. Itās the Jews that arenāt in Israel they spend effort hating.
Never thought Ricky Gervais was very funny, but that was good.
I know this isnāt exactly what youāre talking about, but it reminded me of the rise and fall of Tila Tequila
Ricky Gervais has always been the right kind of asshole IMO.
I mean if you think a comedians job is to punch up and speak truth to powerā¦ Ricky Gervais generally speaking swings fucking hard when heās punching up. Iād definitely prefer not to have anyone speak to me like that ever lol.
Yes for sure. I appreciated him saying over and over listen, this is my fifth time doing this. I will not do this again. And I will make sure no one ever WANTS me to do it again.
This is absolutely brilliantā¦
I canāt stop watching thisā¦
I thought you 2 would appreciate thisā¦ Read the OAE headlines at the bottem their pure dead brilliant man.
