Piers Morgan asks why violence against male politicians is funny

Sable_xXx · 2019-05-26T08:07:02+00:00

Not a fan of Morgan, but at least he's asking the right question.

nforne · 2019-05-26T13:46:14+00:00

I like how the example of "escalation" was Tommy Robinson defending himself. IIRC, Labour MP John Prescott once reacted to being egged in the same way but actually landed two punches. I don't recall his actions being called escalation.

Funny how they ignore the fact that the police escorted a large gang, armed with bricks, to a Tommy Robinson rally, then stood by while they rained them down on the families there. That's escalation.

Wisemanner · 2019-05-26T10:30:13+00:00

My guess is that it's the same reason as why sexual assault on males is often "funny". Why is this? I don't know. But I'll hazard a guess. It's because males are expected to abase themselves. Presumably, in a desperate search for pussy.

LedZeppelin1602 · 2019-05-26T13:33:38+00:00

My god this man is insufferable. He keeps saying it’s a difficult question when it’s isnt and keeps trying to avoid answering as if he’s scared of offending by answering or something.

And the other guy called Farage racist without offering any evidence

IDprefertostayanon · 2019-05-26T11:23:02+00:00

I am honestly confused: should i like or dislike the video?

IDprefertostayanon · 2019-05-26T08:09:32+00:00

"It's a difficult question" is an interesting way to say "i am a hypocrite" btw

Beardie-Boi-420 · 2019-05-26T09:46:16+00:00

Hypocrisy at its finest (or worse idk)

BonicusCaponicus · 2019-05-26T13:56:42+00:00

Wow, Piers Morgan... is the face of reason...

What parallel universe did I wake up in that I am rooting for this guy.

Good for you Piers, a stopped clock is right twice a day.

mgtowolf · 2019-05-26T13:36:21+00:00

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. One of those rare times I agree with that guy.

ArtisticNebula4 · 2019-05-26T12:40:13+00:00

As a girl i agree with his question, it is an act of violence and not funny when committed against a woman or a man.

SCROTAL-SACK · 2019-05-26T10:53:47+00:00

Ugh.. the shuffling and dodging the straight question about whether it'd just as funny with a female politician, by that soft-faced cuck, was nauseating.

Respect to Piers.

abacabbmk · 2019-05-26T13:20:29+00:00

Why is violence against anyone funny?

Leben_ · 2019-05-26T13:21:38+00:00

He's squirming and refusing to answer. Piers does have a point. Not just women though. Race, religion and all other things would be seen as unacceptable.

Throwing anything at people is a violent act imo. It normalises invading personal space and trying to demean someone in public. There are such idiots out there that will try to one up each other. Just look at UK politics subs on here. I've seen people say "it should be a brick" "someone should bury a hatchet in him" and so on. On twitter it's the same.

People that act like they're peaceful and tolerant people proving they're tolerant and peaceful by assaulting what they don't like are hypocrites.

Was there a Dutch politician that got food thrown at him and they laughed. Then he was shot dead?

What will happen is milkshake throwing will become normal then it will progress to more and more.

MezzaCorux · 2019-05-26T13:00:53+00:00

Milkshaking is both immature and unproductive. All it is are children in adult bodies throwing a tantrum because they’re not getting their way.

dozzer85 · 2019-05-26T13:43:44+00:00

It's not even just a case of gender, what if we all just throw milkshake over anyone with a conflicting opinion? These people think it's funny but if they had it thrown over them it would be a very different case and no longer funny at all. No matter your political opinions or gender it's simply not acceptable. If it happened to corbyn would they all laugh or cause a massive uproar?

DongleNocker · 2019-05-26T13:59:46+00:00

The old double standard

IDprefertostayanon · 2019-05-26T08:16:11+00:00

Dear feminist hypocrite who downvoted this post: it's gonna be upvoted anyway so don't waste your time.

KatieBumble · 2019-05-26T13:22:19+00:00

I found this really difficult to upvote as I hate almost every word that comes out of Piers Morgan's mouth. However, violence against anyone is awful and the culture we're in which treats male suffering as humourous genuinely makes me sick to my stomach.

DongleNocker · 2019-05-26T14:07:09+00:00

Even a broke clock is correct twice a day. I wish American interviewers would have the balls to ask the question again when some two faced jerk doesn't answer the question.

DolphinsAreOk · 2019-05-26T13:48:13+00:00

The twat has a point

turbulance4 · 2019-05-26T15:12:52+00:00

What was his only solid argument for the hypocrisy (other than general "it's nuanced")? Something like: It's different because women politicians have actually been violently attacked. Like no men have?

Dantevortex · 2019-05-26T15:31:07+00:00

It's not funny, but a simple mock execution.

Security failed on this occasion once again.

Sininenn · 2019-05-26T18:12:01+00:00

"Comments are disabled for this video" - ofc :D

nzalog · 2019-05-26T19:07:26+00:00

Have some fucking principle. The "nuance" he's talking about is basically as long as it's his side throwing the milk shakes, he's good with it. What the fuck happened to the left...

nocivo · 2019-05-26T12:23:10+00:00

That is the new left for you. Is fine to use violence to shut up peiple who you don’t agree with and is hilarious if is a man.

LionVenom10 · 2019-05-26T11:59:31+00:00

Ok fine, but let’s not forget, Piers Morgan is an ass.

rahsoft · 2019-05-26T17:22:22+00:00

interesting that the guy who agreed that it would be wrong and yet calls Farage racist is an idiot who has never done a days work in his life, his only work experience is in his own words church activities( i think it was a drummer or drum circle), you can google his interview.

he is being funded by a group that he is not allowed to mention because nobody wants attention on them.

throwing a milkshake at someone is assault plain and simple.

to use any diverse characteristic such as gender, politics is nothing more than a bigoted view point and is only one step away from murder.

we saw what happened to jo cos and we saw her husband and the left hijack that incident to claim it was alt - right or Brexiteers, so brendan cox was no better either ( and not to mention that he had to leave hope not hate for his own behaviour)

you want to throw something at a politician choose words otherwise choose your prison..

SchmidtytheKid · 2019-05-26T21:42:29+00:00

Sam Harris likened milkshaking someone to a mock assassination. Testing the waters so to speak.

Nexlon · 2019-05-26T14:10:12+00:00

I don't think there is another person alive who doesn't deserve to be lobotomized with a railroad spike more than Piers Morgan but for once he asked a good question here.

mYl1ttl3PWNY · 2019-05-26T14:27:52+00:00

So I'm assuming based on the comments here that a mrm supporter cannot be left leaning on the political spectrum.

SocratesVoltaire · 2019-05-26T22:20:13+00:00

Hyppointhewater · 2019-05-26T22:40:56+00:00

He was forcing awkward, and not letting the other guy talk at all. I mean, he's fighting a fight I enjoy seeing fought, but he's doing it as a complete fucking jackass.

Feminists do it the exact same way, and it enrages me to no end when they do it.

Popular-Uprising- · 2019-05-26T22:41:25+00:00

For the second time in the last month, I find myself agreeing with Piers Morgan. Are we living in crazy world?

rabel111 · 2019-05-27T00:11:01+00:00

These fools couldn't answer Morgan's question directly, because the answer would have demonstrated their hateful agenda. It's OK to commit violence against men because the left hates strong indepoendent thinking men, it weakens their narrative and reveals the left's dependence on internal division. The left needs hate and division within the community or it has no power.

Same logic behind the outrage when one woman is murdered, but nobody speaks out when in the same week three men are murdered. Generally the media supports the notion that when men or boys are victims of murder, violence, rape or public humiliation, it's because they deserve it.

If the laws of the land were applied without bias, none of this absurd, loud and proud public sexism would be tolerated. If this kind of public persecution of a social group is encourgaed and applauded by the left, which group will be the next to be tageted by the left? Jews? Christians? Conservatives?

This is history repeating it's self!

Sasha_ · 2019-05-27T07:08:36+00:00

Hi Piers! I know you check out this sub for stories and insight, so good to see you're fighting for equality.

AngryTails · 2019-05-26T14:17:47+00:00

Piers is what I call "old school" when it comes to politics. He completely believes that politics is talking, but at the end of the day, it's over. Yes, he is on the left, but when it comes to anything REMOTELY close to this, he is completely against it.

Davy-the-Tinker · 2019-05-26T16:31:07+00:00

Racists can change their minds

dissonative · 2019-05-26T22:26:33+00:00

Antifa in a nutshell.

"It's okay when WE smash peoples heads with bike locks, break their bones, doxx people, and use fascist tactics of fear, intimidation and violent suppression"

Yipsta · 2019-05-26T15:47:06+00:00

This isn't a gender issue as much as it is a right vs left issue on politics.

I don't think it's right that leftists seem to think they can throw milkshake at people just because they don't agree with them

JoelMahon · 2019-05-26T11:23:33+00:00

I'd find Theresa may getting hit by a milkshake hilarious as well, it's a dick move, and it shouldn't happen, and doesn't help do anything but make someone a mini martyr, but I wouldn't call it violence

Mcquiz · 2019-05-26T12:54:01+00:00

I'd say milkshaking complete dickheads is quite funny, it doesn't matter what gender they are.

TomachyW · 2019-05-26T12:14:56+00:00

I only found it slightly funny because it was Farage

Aqedah · 2019-05-26T11:01:40+00:00

Let's not get this twisted.

Nigel Farage and Stephen Yaxley-Lennon were not attacked for being men, but for their extreme political views.

No, it's not funny... but this is nothing to do with being a male politician.

inbredrokk · 2019-05-27T08:58:17+00:00

Morgan complains that the other guy won't answer his question when the reason he hasn't answered the question is that he won't let him talk...

frizzle_ · 2019-05-26T17:24:09+00:00

It's not funny because they're men, it's funny because they're fascists you enabling anal wart.

Tealllane · 2019-05-26T20:13:09+00:00

I personally do think the milkshakes are funny...and I would laugh if tomi Lahren, Stacey Dash, or Megan Kelly got milk shaked.

antilopes · 2019-05-26T10:05:40+00:00

Milkshaking was not about men at all, it is about extreme right wing racists who just happen to be men because the extreme right is one big sausage party that can't attract women.

Morgan is offering a distraction not an insight. Nobody is milkshaking normal politicians of either sex.

I don't agree with milkshaking, I agree with Adolf Hitler:

Only one danger could have jeopardised [the Nazi movement] — if our adversaries had understood its principle, established a clear understanding of our ideas, and not offered any resistance.
Or, alternatively, if they had from the first day annihilated with the utmost brutality the nucleus of our new movement.

Neither was done. The times were such that our adversaries were no longer capable of accomplishing our annihilation, nor did they have the nerve.
Arguably, they furthermore lacked the understanding to assume a wholly appropriate attitude. Instead, they began to tyrannise our young movement by bourgeois means, and, by doing so, they assisted the process of natural selection in a very fortunate manner. From there on, it was only a question of time until the leadership of the nation would fall to our hardened human material.

The more our adversaries believe they can obstruct our development by employing a degree of terror that is characteristic of their nature, the more they encourage it. Nietzsche said that a blow which does not kill a strong man only makes him stronger, and his words are confirmed a thousand times. Every blow strengthens our defiance, every persecution reinforces our single-minded determination, and the elements that do fall are good riddance to the movement.

kaffirdog · 2019-05-26T09:40:17+00:00

Of course the gay guy and the African hate Farage. Demographics is destiny.

CrookedHillaryShill · 2019-05-26T16:10:21+00:00

Violence, lol. This is how a man treats this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zw97LIBGbR4

These are just lil pussy snowflake right wingers whining about being the victim, as they fuck over everyone.

Thesauruswrex · 2019-05-26T12:46:24+00:00

Asking the right question about the absolutely wrong situation. You can literally find females on social media every single day advocating violence and genital mutilation against males but we're going to focus on throwing milkshakes because the british version of nazis don't like it? Fuck them and fuck whatever alt-right asshole that's going to jump in and pretend that they give a fuck about men's rights when they are just crying about milkshakes being thrown at cunt politicians.

wallerdog · 2019-05-26T20:19:24+00:00

It’s funny when they are dickheads, doesn’t matter what gender.
