@@DisobedientSpaceWhale He has little choice seeing as the activists have destroyed his family and livelihood. You’d be obsessed too if you lost everything simply for pointing out the obvious. Maybe you feel one is better off accepting the lie and going along with the hysterical lies of a few maniacs, rather than remaining loyal to reality?
@@DisobedientSpaceWhale Funny thing is that he wasnt "obsessed" untill the trans bigots obsessed over how he answered some questions asked of him in an honest and rational manner. They started this fight now he's finnishing it by WINNING.
Its not madness, Graham is a comedy writer and a topic like gender should really only be tackled by someone qualified. If you'd like to hear a Stanford neurologist talking about brain gender, Sapolsky has done a great video about it
Linehan is a marvelous man, and those who have destroyed his career are evil. I openly talk about this madness, and I’m astonished that 99% of people agree with me. But most people are frightened, they’re scared to express their views, they can lose their careers, they don’t realise that most of us think it’s madness. The emperor has no clothes.
Just finished Graham’s book ‘Tough Crowd’. A superb read. The man is fascinating and principled. A true hero for his bravery in speaking the truth even when it seemed the whole world was against him. It wasn’t it’s just there are too many cowards amongst us, too many authoritarian bullies who hold the power, too weak and corrupt a media class, and too many perverts who see gender woo as a loophole the size of a black hole and will fight to the end to keep that loophole open. We need to back brave men like Graham. ❤
Thanks Glinner for your heroic stance on toxic trans ideology. Incredible that you're still cancelled for it. And well done to the SDP for inviting Graham to speak.
@@Besthinktwice Agreed; transwomen and women ARE different as the former are male and the latter are female, and the former can NEVER become the latter. Yes he was cancelled for years and has rarely until recently received any press attention. Eventually the disgraceful treatment of him and many other brave people who have stood up for women and children will be exposed and those courageous people saluted and commended for putting their heads above the parapet agains tthis insidious ideology.
@@Besthinktwice Triggernometry just released a video on "Tony Hinchcliffe: Cancelled for a Joke". In his case, it was just for a few days, but he describes quite vividly how f*cked he was and the psychological torture he had to endure. Almost nobody deserves this.

@@odiedodieuk it's not about me being right; it's just the way it is.

@@odiedodieuk also, if this was about protecting children and women, awareness would be brought to the real threat; people with perceived authority for the kids, and 2 women are murdered by their partners every week.

More power to you Graham,there’s something wonderfull about making people laugh,father ted is the funniest thing that has ever been written,an absolute masterpiece.Nobody can take that from you.Thank you for the truth.
Graham, I cant wait to see your musical, it will see the light of the day! And all the better if there is a my lovely horse song and dance number lol..absolutley love your work, so do my teenage boys.not all the young people are nuts.

Bullshit, if he cared about women he would be bringing attention to the two women killed every week by their partners. If he cared about children he would be campaigning to keep them warm and fed. He's just a stubborn dickhead with bigoted views

34:50 About Graham's "cathartic moment", I remember, clear as yesterday, his "I was going to stay out of this but f**k it" tweet. I had been following him because of Father Ted and IT Crowd, but when I saw he was on the same page as me re: trans madness I was happy and thankful for his braveness. Congrats Graham, I really think you are already halfway to being fully vindicated!
Just finished reading Tough Crowd this morning. It should be compusory reading in schools. It perfectly explains how ideology captures the masses and shuts down opponants. If we want to understand how the worst atrocities in the world happened, this book explains it beautifully, with gentle, self depricating humour.
@@polyestermammoth740 I've read other books on the subject of trans but in illustrating how people are conditioned to follow an ideology, I feel Graham's book is the best.
@@oopster74 Wrong. Trans ideology has captured all the main political parties, institutions, corporations, banks etc. It's the ideology of the ruling class with big money behind it. Big pharma loves that it creates lifelong customers for them. The powerful love how it undermines human identity and families as it makes tyrannical rule more possible. The only methods trans ideologues have is to silence, dox, threaten, assault and lose people their jobs. The argument cannot be won on logical, instinctual or moral grounds. It goes against truth and the good.
Exactly @@oopster74You Tube still recommends this bigot despite what he's said and done. None of the people he accuses of cancelling him have any such voice.
Thank you Graham Linehan. Please keep shining a light on this hideous movement. The vast majority agree with you. The irony is farcical, 1: Diversity = Only one opinion is allowed. 2: Inclusion = People are excluded. 3: Equality = Some peoples thoughts and feelings are more important than other peoples.
I tell my wee girl all the time, when she says about her brother "he boy!!"..."yes, hes a boy, and youre a girl. But there are some confused people, and some very bad people who would tell you that you are actually a boy! Which is just silly. So if anyone ever tells you you might be a boy, come and tell mummy and daddy." *So that daddy can deal with them*
I was fired as an airline pilot for saying that the general public would find gay sex on terrestrial daytime television revolting. An LGBT activist callled Adam Long sent a letter to my company purely to destroy my life.
Usually because they don't exist. Most trans activists are just powerless students pushing back against old bigots like Linehan, just to be drowned out by people like Kemi Bedanoch, Julie Bindel and JK Rowling. The people who cancelled Linehan are the people who actually knew him and were witness to his obsession. His friends. His comedy collaborators. His wife.
I just came back from a Ricky Gervais gig. He is blunt as fucc about the trans issue ( again) in his Armageddon show. Interesting that they can’t take him down.
That’s really interesting. Ricky G is a multimillionaire and would never have to work again-say if he was cancelled like Graham. His shows are so well attended that if Netflix cancelled him, Paramount would snap him up in a second. Ricky is also unashamedly working class in his outlook: his comedy hero is his own brother who’s a builder. These guys are never afraid to speak their minds, whatever their opinions as they’ve nowt to lose! If you’re in a middle class profession like a teacher or working in the media or arts and you’re not already absolutely made for life financially, then it’d be incredibly wise to consider your opinions very carefully when offering them publicly. If you want to be able to do the job you love and continue to make an income stream from it. As someone once said ‘agree with everyone and keep your opinions to yourself’.

Seeing how my inner city "lefty" friends are so trapped out of fear in a woke dogma. I think a well written documentry about old school "lefty" types breaking through the shite is really important Glinner.
Rik from the Young Ones. I spent some time editing a video of Rik's best moments. What struck me was how similar he was to the current leftist lunatics. (P)Rick would have been all over 'Just Stop Oil', 'Extinction Rebellion', BLM, Transactivism, Queers for Palestine etc)
It is a welcome change to see men of principles on a public stage, how much longer must public discourse be restricted by the deranged and manipulative? Time surely for a concerted push back from all sides of the political spectrum?
What happened to Graham has ruined British comedy for me, at any rate the modern stuff on TV / radio / podcasts etc., because when I see David Mitchell or Romesh or any of them e.g. Bake Off or Task Master or WILTY, now I just think "You're only where you are because you kept quiet in order to get ahead." Seeing them in cushy positions, knowing none of them stood up for Graham and supported women/girls and LGB people... It's so profoundly depressing. It also tbh opened my eyes to the younger stands ups who are my own generation, people like James Acaster or Nish Kumar, or saddest of all, most female stand-ups - and they're all DEEP in the id pol and gender woo. Ugh
@@L_Martin totally agree with you. I grew up with The day today, Brass eye and Jam….it’s appalling how those guys have chosen to hide. Comedy today is largely finished as a social satire because all those involved (on a national scale) are part of the establishment. In a way it’s worse now than it was in the 70’s because at least those tv comedians weren’t pretending to be anything other than mainstream.
The bullying this man (sorry if the term "man" is offensive) has been subjected to is disgusting. Made worse by the COWARDS in his profession who know he is right but remain compliant.
I really enjoyed this. But didnt graham pile on count danulka over the nazi pug.... thereby doing to someone else that which was being done to him. I'm aware he has since issued a public apology which is way more than graham will likely ever get from anyone.
There are many good points made in this conversation. You do not have to believe in everything someone says to show respect. And no, I'm not a follower of Father Ted or knew who this gentleman was till recently.
I class myself on the left...certainly economically....but this is madness ...seriously mad....nobody should entertain gender blocking/change until at least 21 and that should be law !!.....then and only then should they be classed as the sex they wish to be
We really have moved into the 1984 realm of 2+2=5 if that is so decreed 'or else'. It makes the McCarthy witchunts look trivial. Chilling, to say the very least.
Graham is great - but he also needs to remember that he was once a full woke leftie so partly responsible for allowing the madness to thrive in the first place
I agree here, and these sorts of people, those bitten hard and deep by the hand they once fed, are the most valuable. He really stepped onto a landmine with his views eh 😄
I would object to Liddle's proposition on the racist sketch being the best Father Ted moment. Bishop Len Brennan breaking out of his trance and returning to Craggy Island for vengeance on Crilly for kicking him up the arse. Len running towards Crilly's house with maximum cape extension.

It is a welcome change to see men of principles on a public stage, how much longer must public discourse be restricted by the deranged and manipulative? Time surely for a concerted push back from all sides of the political spectrum?
The ‘friends’ should be ashamed of themselves…they’ve become the accepted face of comedy for the establishment.
What happened to Graham has ruined British comedy for me, at any rate the modern stuff on TV / radio / podcasts etc., because when I see David Mitchell or Romesh or any of them e.g. Bake Off or Task Master or WILTY, now I just think "You're only where you are because you kept quiet in order to get ahead." Seeing them in cushy positions, knowing none of them stood up for Graham and supported women/girls and LGB people... It's so profoundly depressing.
It also tbh opened my eyes to the younger stands ups who are my own generation, people like James Acaster or Nish Kumar, or saddest of all, most female stand-ups - and they're all DEEP in the id pol and gender woo. Ugh
@@L_Martin totally agree with you.
I grew up with The day today, Brass eye and Jam….it’s appalling how those guys have chosen to hide.
Comedy today is largely finished as a social satire because all those involved (on a national scale) are part of the establishment.
In a way it’s worse now than it was in the 70’s because at least those tv comedians weren’t pretending to be anything other than mainstream.
@@L_Martin well said. Those you mentioned are lowlife cowards.
Rising Damp would never get made in this day and age ! But look online at black Americans watching it, who have never seen it before and they love it.
It would I think, because the joke is on Rigby.
Two legends 👍
The bullying this man (sorry if the term "man" is offensive) has been subjected to is disgusting. Made worse by the COWARDS in his profession who know he is right but remain compliant.
Lol why would man be offensive? You sound like you almost know as much about gender ideology as Graham haha
@@rgghjs9270 you laughed at the wrong joke.
@@fintonmainz7845 where's the joke?
@@rgghjs9270 I don't know where you are.
@@rgghjs9270 Faschists don't usually get jokes. They do find amusement in watching innocent victims suffer.
Well put graham
well done Glinner!
Help the lesbians.
I support them by watching a lot of their documentaries.
I do!!
No you don't. Lesbians are the single biggest group in society to support their trans sisters
glad to see more and more videos on here featuring graham linehan - he's been right all along, after all.
I really enjoyed this. But didnt graham pile on count danulka over the nazi pug.... thereby doing to someone else that which was being done to him. I'm aware he has since issued a public apology which is way more than graham will likely ever get from anyone.
There will be retribution for these atrocities !
There are many good points made in this conversation. You do not have to believe in everything someone says to show respect. And no, I'm not a follower of Father Ted or knew who this gentleman was till recently.
Debbie Hayton is still a man and not a woman.
He agrees.

Go n- éirí leat a Graham!
I adore you Graham. My kind of man xox
I class myself on the left...certainly economically....but this is madness ...seriously mad....nobody should entertain gender blocking/change until at least 21 and that should be law !!.....then and only then should they be classed as the sex they wish to be
Rod, you're not allowed to say that Toby Jones is short. No-one has ever mentioned it. In fact we hadn't noticed it until you pointed it out.
If language creates reality, as "they" seem to believe, then perhaps Toby Jones wasn't short until Rod said he was?
Brilliant to see Graham who was prepared to stand up to the Trans Bullies reciving such a warm welcome from the silent majority .
We really have moved into the 1984 realm of 2+2=5 if that is so decreed 'or else'. It makes the McCarthy witchunts look trivial. Chilling, to say the very least.
Graham seems at the end of his rope here, very fidgety and anxious and swearing. It's not surprising after all the battling he's been doing.
Of course. He's been living a lie for years now. The strain must be tremendous
And what lie might that be dude? @@moif_velocita
@@moif_velocita
What lie?
I want a copy of Linehan's book, but it has sold out. Hopefully it's being reprinted, because it's been so popular.
Graham is great - but he also needs to remember that he was once a full woke leftie so partly responsible for allowing the madness to thrive in the first place
I agree here, and these sorts of people, those bitten hard and deep by the hand they once fed, are the most valuable.
He really stepped onto a landmine with his views eh 😄
I get so disappointed when Trump is accused of lying and no examples are given.
Thanku Graham ❤
"Rik won" - I've been thinking this so often lately ....!
I would object to Liddle's proposition on the racist sketch being the best Father Ted moment.
Bishop Len Brennan breaking out of his trance and returning to Craggy Island for vengeance on Crilly for kicking him up the arse. Len running towards Crilly's house with maximum cape extension.
Down with this sort of thing !
