That's rich coming from John Cleese, he was on the side of fucking over the peaceful state of international relatioships when it came to brexit, supporting the pricks that he's now criticizing.

He should just fuck off to the cayman islands and shut up. He cashed in all his Monty Python/Fawlty Towers goodwill when he became Basil

Still an asshole in the end. Assholes disliking another asshole doesn't make them less of an asshole.

The fault in the left.

Yeah, our fault for not being buddies with the bullies bully.

We can't unite against a greater evil because we look to the right and they're always right of us.

We look to the right and see the pro-trans crowd as well but making them our enemy while the people further right of them ruin the world won't work out for either of us.

That's what people are talking about by the above. If you were better informed you would have already known that.

Like cool, we disagree with him but we can disagree with him on those things not on war crimes. If supporting him would stop the war crimes then we could support him until the war crimes stopped though that isn't relevant in this scenario.

I'm confused, are you saying pro trans is right leaning?

ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca · -1 pts · 221d

Yeah, the left doesn’t have gender differences (outside of biology) so people feeling like they’re a different gender means there’s too much societal power in the label. Take any person say they are xx or xy and then switch it. They’re still the same person.

However that wasn’t the point, it was about how not being left enough stops us from uniting against the people right of all of us.

John Cleese on trans people

(He's definitely an asshole about more than the EU)

surewhynotlem@lemmy.world · 32 pts · 221d (1 reply)

There's a big difference between supporting fascists and dictators, and supporting the UK shooting it's own dick off.

But yeah, people shouldn't support either.

Skullgrid@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 221d

well, supporting one leads to strengthening the other. a fuckload of brexit propaganda money came from russia, which should make it suspect.

Although… I’m not so sure that he’s still funny these days. It would seem not.

You're allowed to enjoy something for what it is while recognizing it's problematic.

Or follow gay humour where you find a bunch of fag jokes but you're laughing at the bumbling fool/homophobic person.

He spent most of his adult life dodging taxes -- no surprise that he would be pro-brexit.

Don't get to serious about membership. Trump just wants you to pay the membership fee.

Literally how Mar-a-Lago works. He wants people to pay him to make a rich boys' club for heads of state because all the other ones aren't money to him based. They're just about how much money does the country have, like the G8.

Participating in the economy funds Nazis and pedophiles.

FiniteBanjo@feddit.online · 5 pts · 221d (2 replies)

The economy funds all of us, disproportionately, but even on the elite end you have Taylor Swift, Bill Gates, and George Soros who are not Nazis or Pedophiles.

Twitter exclusively funds nazis and pedophiles.

lmmarsano@lemmynsfw.com · -5 pts · 221d (1 reply)

Twitter exclusively

The employees are all certified Nazis & pedophiles: has anyone told the FBI?

Any sign X has started turning a profit? Twitter was sold while operating with losses. It's lost significant advertising revenue since then.

Anyhow, everything in the economy is interconnected. Circulating money inevitably flows through every earner's pockets. With enough degrees of separation, every spender pays for Nazis & pedophiles. The degrees are few for US taxpayers: Musk's companies have a few government contracts. I guess you could burn it. 🔥

I'm not sure we needed John Cleese's acknowledgment, but yes it's a good joke

All I know is: when a Python compliments your joke, you may have just peaked. Whoever wrote that needs to print it, frame it, and perhaps have it signed.

Sorry to be that guy, but John has gone down the "you can't tell jokes anymore because woke" path and is also transphobic.

The world is going to end in nuclear hell fire, isn't it?

More likely to be economic collapse at this point.

Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca · 25 pts · 221d (2 replies)

Ecological collapse, triggering economic collapse, triggering open conflict, triggering nuclear fires.

I should place a bet on a prediction market. ;)

Something's uncanny about Putin here, is this a body double, AI, a much older photo, or has he had some work done recently?

Looks like the photo is about 12 years old, I put the link on TinEye and one of the earliest appearances is this April 2014 article:
