Humans, generally speaking, have less to worry about these days that they did even 50 years ago. This has given them far more time to worry about other things that don't really matter in the grand scheme of things, except in their own heads.

Twitter and its ilk has also brought about new ways to instantly communicate just how offended you are that, for example, a very clever man with far more to contribute to society than you, chooses to dress like IronWarrior's bedroom just as he becomes one of the first humans to help land a man-made craft on a comet, ten years after it departed this planet.

ON A ****ING COMET!!!!!

It needs to stop. So there.

What can I do about it? Write to feminist groups and start a public Twitter war? Write to my local MP? Absolutely nothing? Maybe the no (sorry, feminists) have a point and I am just a white male with nothing to worry about because nobody's mean to me?

Evidence suggests people have more stressful lives than 50 years ago, hence increased rates of depression and anxiety


Oh and dykes :rolleyes: maybe you need a holiday
 
Seems to be getting worse. I just absolutely despise these Tumblr feminist ***** with their 'check your privilege' BS. Ugh, it actually makes me want to offend these people on purpose just to annoy them.
 
we need more robust free speech/freedom of expression laws

there was a story today about a guy in Leeds being told to take a 'funny'/laddish transfer of a kidnapped woman from the back of his truck... while the guy is a **** and and the transfer not particularly funny I don't think the police have the right to threaten him with a 'public order offence' over the matter...

ditto to the woman who lived near a mosque and happened to have pig ornaments in her window, the 'pick up artist' banned from the UK this week because he 'promotes rape culture'... sure the guy is a dick but banning from the UK? The Islamic nutter who burned a poppy... sure it is deeply offensive to some but if he paid for the poppy he can do what he likes with it IMO.
 
The irony being the poor bloke is a top scientist, seems to have poor social skills and social judgement and therefore there is likely a reason for that. But that's fine to knock him about that and make the bloke cry for no good reason when he is advancing science in the one area the human race needs to sort out. Whatever next shall we challenge that bloke from Cambridge because he didn't stand up when we entered the room and that is disrespectful.
