UK's biggest welfare family have another baby

Danny Baker scores no extra points for taking it down and caving to the outrage mob.

He did not cave to an outraged mob. He removed it when friends pointed out how it could be interpreted.
You really should at least read up on what he has said before you jump to your ignorant conclusions.

People could misinterpret it, that's caving to the outrage mob.

No. That's accepting you made a mistake and apologising.
I wouldn't expect you to understand the concept.

Nah, he shouldn't. It is, after all, perfectly legitimate to be offended about something, even if you absolutely misunderstand the context, background and intention behind something that's been said. The one who is offended is always, always right. It's grossly offensive of you to suggest he needs to read up on anything.

I'm getting pretty offended by all the people needing to feel offended all the time. It's becoming a way of life for some people. I can't imagine a life filled with searching through every syllable, looking for a way to proclaim how offended I am.

How about we just let assholes be assholes?

If someone offends you, you simply need to stop listening, watching, reading or having tea with that person. Your problem is instantly solved.

He didn't make a mistake, the outrage mob did, they should be apologizing to him, not the other way around.

I'm sure Goebbels said just the same about all those snowflake Jews complaining about being vilified.
I mean, what's the worst thing that could happen when you allow racists to preach their hate without consequence?

[Haumana]

It might just be me but a chimp in clothes and comparing that to a black is a pretty much classic racist joke. I'm not saying he should have been fired or whatever but substituting apes for black people is an old trope.

Can we add Goebbels to the Godwin's law list ?

You are sure, are you? He said approximately that, did he?

The term of art is Grievance Farming.

The bourgeoisie are impotent, they will not surrender comfort and safety to fight for a cause.

To fill this void, the seek to empower themselves by ritual witch burnings.

This is actually a mechanism for controlling them, directing their impotent rage away from the power elites.

This is why the politicians embrace it.

OK, I don't know for sure that he called them snowflakes. He probably just said ''they are sub-humans who cares if they are offended''.
