Yup, I just thought that and did a search. It is all about his reaction, the reaction of cis white males and of his trans buddies. Women? Completely erased from his reckoning.
Ah ha ha! Oh Wil, you'll never know how funny you are. Where to begin?
"The room fell silent and that's when I realized every single guy in this room was gay."
Riiight. In what way did their sexual orientation become obvious to him in that moment? He'd just used an offensive word, but somehow he didn't conclude that every single guy in that room was offended? He just instantly knew they were all gay?
Exactly. It's a case of "Well Rowling wouldn't be getting all that shit unless she'd said something offensive, and I'm far too busy throwing shit to actually find out what it was she said..."
Oof and we just need proper record keeping. Just. Just. It's ok everyone, stand down, it's ok to have men committing sex crime, we just need to ensure our records are up to muster. Who knows what we'd then do with all those nice records. Maybe try to stop the sex criming?
I reckon that we need a bit of struggle in our lives. Not the sort where we’re struggling just to survive, but where it’s more like “knowing you’re alive”. I also reckon that Western World gits like Wil haven’t got enough of that, so they’re creating it “to feel alive” - but not so much that it actually creates a bit of struggle for them. It’s more like a luxury self-flagellation.
"Luxury self-flagellation." So true! The great thing about doing it to yourself is that you can give up when it gets too much! What a plonker he sounds.
What a load of cishet and twaddle. Does it not dawn on him, while he is self-flagellating on the virtue-signalling alter of wokedom, that he is a super-priviliged white man, defending the rights of other privileged white men and that he doesn't even mention women or their hard won rights at all? Just men then Wes? So to sum up, privilged white dude slams two black dudes - one for apparently making him homophobic and one for daring to include the immutability of biology in his act to defend other privilgeed white dudes without even thinking about the impact on any women in any way whatsoeever. I watched Eddie Murphy as a teen too and not once did the use of the "f" word make me homophobic. Take responsibility Wes.
Yet another shallow idiot with no skin in the game equating TRAs with gay liberation when they not only have nothing in common, but are diametrically opposed. This is why the US liberals have glommed onto this as Gay Rights 2.0. Guilt over past homophobia and actual gay men dying in droves, he buys the TRA forced teaming - but with the totally left field gem of “Eddie Murphy made me homophobic”. But then, this is the same bonehead who referred to Chappelle as a “piece of shit” so what did I expect.
It's a big issue the LGB being limped with the T. They are not the same thing and they are not aligned. That was a bad call by Stonewall and has been exploited by the TRAs no end.
HAHAHA Ohh what a beauty!! Thanks for the laughs, Graham. I just knew when I first read you'd have a field day with it!! 'M NIGHT SHAMALAMADINGDONG!' BWHAHAHA!
I don't think I'd ever stop laughing if Wil's 'redemption story' pitch went the same way as Matt Damon's. If you remember he tried to say: "I used to say the f-word but I'm a better person now," but all the twitter mob heard were the first six words...
Pandering to the twitchfork-wielding crowd is no guarantee that you won't end up on the bonfire, as Margaret Atwood could tell you.
I always wonder how sharp people her age may be. Certainly there are plenty of people in their eighties quite with it -- we have a 101-year-old woman here in Maine still working on a lobster boat -- but many people lose their edge. Thinking Noam Chomsky here.
I was just reflecting that if we got everyone delivering post on their bikes in their villages for 80 years (I think that's the UK version of lobster boats) that seems to protect the brain a little (or a lot, sorry that's Paul Daniels). Just heard interviews with the last of the ATS girls and it's well worth a listen :-)
Excellent humorous breakdown Graham...all great points.
Just a few here
11. I should say at this point, I don’t buy this story at all. A gay team called The Blades? And he didn’t know they were gay? And how did he find out? Did he go “Wait, The Blades? And they’re in a locker room?… These fellas are ALL GAY!”
18. Yes, do not question the white, straight man as he bravely stands with other white, straight men
20. Well, you’re a professional nerd living in Los Angeles so of course you do.
I still can’t believe he doesn’t mention women ONCE!!!!!! 🤡
ha!
No apparently trans is just a subject for men!
Women, what are women? Is this a new word that I don't know?
I bought a brand new English dictionary just two weeks ago. Trying to look it up there. Useless.
Very good point.
That's exactly what I thought... and then I saw your comment :)
Unbelievable!

“Cishet” white man virtue signals his way through a pile of pish

They all wore white socks ????
haha
😂
hehe that is quite the head scratcher … indeed how?
Don't let the two get anywhere near one another - Chappelle would simply make verbal mincemeat of him. Oh! perhaps on second thoughts . . . .
They never actually quote the "terrible" things, do they?
Same with JK Rowling. Any time you go "So what did they actually say? " it's vague bluster and "TERF, blah blah"
Exactly. It's a case of "Well Rowling wouldn't be getting all that shit unless she'd said something offensive, and I'm far too busy throwing shit to actually find out what it was she said..."
Notorious bad legal take grifter Seth Abramson entered the JK Rowling fray this afternoon, and it's been magnificent.
Emma Hilton's reply is just wonderful - https://twitter.com/FondOfBeetles/status/1470471009312649220?t=NUeDFHgH8pJ2EU44vusU0w&s=19
He’s still going & has just accused Alex Massie of wanting to kill trans women.
The same Seth Abramson whose personal threshold for threatening to sue for libel is someone making fun of him? Surely some mistake!
I don't know whether to laugh or cry or laugh. Laughcry.
Oof and we just need proper record keeping. Just. Just. It's ok everyone, stand down, it's ok to have men committing sex crime, we just need to ensure our records are up to muster. Who knows what we'd then do with all those nice records. Maybe try to stop the sex criming?
This is funny as fuck. Nice one , Graham!

Thanks for the great breakdown. You gotta larf.
Cishet & Twaddle has to be a designer barber’s shop.
I was so disappointed that he sucked up like this. I actually had a certain fondness for his geeky self.
Now all I can say is "Shut up, Wesley."
"Shut up, Wesley."
Damn it, you beat me to it.
It can never be said too often.
Speaking of which, anybody else here old enough to remember USENET and the group alt.wesley-crusher.die.die.die?
I'm afraid I an old enough and that I remember it.
Horrible to admit it .. 😂
I hate when that happens.
Yes.
It would seem that self pity is not a feeling entirely alien to Will Wheaton.

She learned the hard way. Is her Twitter account still locked to comments?
Seems to be. For someone who seemed hyper-aware of the dangers of conformity, her capitulation to gender ideology was disappointing.
I always wonder how sharp people her age may be. Certainly there are plenty of people in their eighties quite with it -- we have a 101-year-old woman here in Maine still working on a lobster boat -- but many people lose their edge. Thinking Noam Chomsky here.
Oh, I find recent Chomsky interviews painful to watch. There still is a lot of mind there but you can almost see it going. It's tragic.
Not a stimulating environment to be living in Arizona in some old people's ghetto.
That's too sad for words.

Those of you who only know him as a child actor in Star Trek may not be aware of his later work as "man with beard".
You mean he went downhill from *Wesley Crusher*???
(Actually, I saw some of his guest appearances in "Big Bang Theory" - I honestly thought his pompous character was self-parody. Apparently not.)
I can not believe I missed that.

He just sounds so woke and drippy!
