Honestly, yes, some people don't like or they even hate trans people, and others just don't understand, yet they mean well; either way, you CAN'T fucking tell people what to or how to think.

Without nation states, you can’t have representative democracy, just rule by elite experts who get 90% of things wrong.

      An interesting development and you guys are probably not the only ones who feels like this. I can bet a lot of people voted for Trump just because they have ha enough of woke. The question is though is this progressive movement simply showing peoples true colors or is it a reasonable reaction to excessive political correctness in the left. The truth is though that both left and right has adopted identitarian focus which has had imo harmful effect of obscuring a really important issue which is excessive income inequality. I think it's a mistake to go further right just because you cant stand SJW and the like. I believe socialdemocratic and egalitarian narratives is whats needed right now, while rigth wing and the extreme right fascism will roll over and crush our skulls and spines like a tank battalion.

      @@Revelian1982 I mean it's all subjective in the end when it comes to "who's the funniest". Personally, my favourite comedians are Lee Evans and Peter Kay. I've tried watching Russell Howard a few times, but just can't get away with him. I do like some of the moments though of Russell Howard's Good News, but not his stand alone stand-up. Also, I don't think he's responsible for any shift in comedy towards "polite and caring comedy" to say it how you put it - I'm sure there've been plenty of comedian's who've had that style of comedy through the years. The two I've just mentioned as my favourite are probably the UK's biggest comedians and have been around long before Russell, and I wouldn't label them as "thoughtless, evil [comedians]". Just a thought anyways, have a nice day :)

      Oh, I don't know. Bleak is in the rotting eye of the beholder, no? I wish that we could get over the "let's dress the dead in their best and bury them". Who came up with that idea, the ditch diggers, tailers, and seamstresses? There's nothing wrong with burying people naked and in contact with the soil--okay, with a sheet then--so that the planet can reclaim them naturally. "I nourished you for many years, now you nourish me", says the land.
      A thought related to what Ricky said is that the world will carry on without you. In a world of self-importance, I find that refreshing.
      When Skavlan said that his dog's urn said "dog", I was thinking, "You could have picked a better name than that. All those years of being so plainly summoned." Don't mean to make fun of your loss, S; just plugging a little levity. Greatings from San Diego, California and peace to all of you! ✌

      Yes, yes. Bleak... but comforting. Spicey... but sort of chicken-y. Even round but also flattish or perhaps euphoric but a bit sicky, not to mention dank but a bit furry, dreamy yet citrus, forested but tundra, icy but mouldy.

    11:42 "Lie enough til people believe it." This couldn't be more true. This kinda reminds me of the book Animal Farm and how the animals followed Napoleon and believed in him even though he wasn't being honest because they didn't know any better and didn't think for themselves.

    Ricky is so good. He would be my #1 choice of all "celebrities" to have dinner with. Ricky just acts normal instead of like some snooty person, he's the kind of person you just want a beer and conversation with. My favorite comedian and person by far, until the world ends sometime in 2021.
