@WarMonitor3 I find that somewhat of a drastic comparison. We don't know this is state-organized or state-sanctioned by Morocco (and likely is not). It's a Spanish/Moroccan internal and bilateral issue for now.

NATO should be treating the 60,000 people who stormed across the Spanish border as an infringement on the blocs security just as they would if Russia launched an attack on the Baltics.

I see I am being ritually insulted for my support of this man The uneducated call me a racist I am not a racist I am a culturalist I believe that some cultures are better than others I prefer cultures to do not advocate stoning, pederasty, wife beating, female genital mutilation, and beheading opponents Call me old-fashioned...

Be honest. If Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain contested the next General Election, would they have your vote?

@qcomplex5 @SloopyTexas @JohnCleese It’s implied to the point you’d have to be completely retarded to not understand. He lives in a country that jails people from calling it out directly. If you are offended, you’re probably either part of the targeted demographic or a giant shitstick. 🤷

@buttcoin80 @SloopyTexas @JohnCleese I'm most certainly not a fan: I find each to be horrendous. The issue is that they do not define a culture. I'm not offended, no.

@qcomplex5 @TechTonik808 @SloopyTexas @JohnCleese I knew a guy. Everyone called him Abdullah the Norwegian (because, they said, he was born in Norway.) Everyone knew you can’t become Norwegian just by being born in Norway anymore than you can become an airplane by being born in a hangar. That’s what made it funny.

@OLLIE50795248 @sacanarren @JohnCleese 30% of British women experience domestic abuse. The majority of actors are neither demonized nor ostracized (nor face any legal repercussions for that matter). The vasty majority of rape cases do not result in a prosecution either.

@Shwmewhtyougot @JohnCleese I'm not offended by Cleese's view. I just disagree with it and find it poorly premised.

He listed practices he condemns in cultures he had in mind. He did not define British culture, identify its positive characteristics, or explain how the absence of selected practices establishes the overall superiority of an entire culture. A charge sheet against an out-group is not a definition of the in-group.

@qcomplex5 @sacanarren @JohnCleese Give it up, JJ. Your “religion” doesn’t hold up to modern scrutiny. It’s a barbaric ideology established by a misogynist pedo for world domination by sexually violent men. That they get 72 virgins as a reward in their heaven tells you all you need to know.

To the hundreds saying “he literally listed them”: yes, Cleese listed practices he condemns in cultures he had in mind. He did not define British culture, identify its positive characteristics, or explain how the absence of selected practices establishes the overall superiority of an entire culture. A charge sheet against an out-group is not a definition of the in-group.

@SloopyTexas @JohnCleese Cleese supplied a charge sheet against selected practices elsewhere, not a definition of British culture or a positive case for its superiority. “They do things I condemn” does not establish “our entire culture is better.”

@CockimusM @Vierdan3 @JohnCleese And your appeal to women slapping men in television and films as evidence of real-world initiation rates is simply anecdotal cultural commentary, not an empirical result.

Nobody said women never perpetrate IPV. I said wife-beating persists in Western society. Evidence about female-perpetrated IPV does not refute that: both can be true. Nor does “nonreciprocal” mean “women instigated it”; it means only one partner was classified as violent in the survey. Archer found men more likely to cause injury, and Whitaker found the same. Pivoting from violence against wives to “women do it more and instigate it” is precisely the minimisation and blame displacement I was describing.
