Who’s Been Cancelled??

[sid waddell]

Sid, I don't see us reaching a mutual understanding anytime soon and, as I don't want to keep knocking on a closed door repeatedly, I'lli finish this discussion with this post.

At a conservativwe estimate, you have been outvoted by 5,000 to one at the very least.
RTE has said ""The formal complaints received by RTÉ are being entered into our complaints system and will be responded to in accordance with the relevant statutory process."

What appears to be a matter of free speech to you is apparently incitement to hate to 5,000 others.
Does majority rule or not?
I don't see much point in continuing a point picking exercise since the rules of logic don't apply to you but I'll sign off with a few of the more noteworthy examples.
If you recall, you stated that there should have been no apology and I asked you why not.
I stated ,"The sole object of the exercise was to offend the religious beliefs of possibly the majority people on the island. By all accounts, the show had no cultural or artistic merit and caused extreme offence to the general public ...

Your bizarre reply was to accuse me of using Georg Hook logic and for a leap of imagination it is hard to beat this: Isn't that the same logic that holds "what did Manuela Riedo expect to happen when she walked along that deserted path beside the railway line"?
Why exactly is that supposed to mean???
AS for David Quinn and the I Own Her (Iona?) Institute and Charlie Hebdo stickers, I had already pointed out that the magazine's editor had already paid with his life for exercising his right to free speech and in so doing, five of his colleagues died along with him. A young gendarme was murdered also and scores of churches were razed to the ground in Ghana (?)   
What the editor may have supposed as a legitimate freedom of expression was taken by Muslin fundamentalists as an incitement to hatred with calamitous results for thousands of innocent people.
All the #jesuischarlies in the world cannot gainsay that.
At best they signalled to millions of fundamentalists that the West  was impotent to retaliate and, worst of all, seemed to imply that western society condoned the insult to Allah.
And #jesuischarlie?
An  exercise in futility at its worst.
That's where my allusion to being assaulted by the local bully enters the picture.
In short, it's alright to express your personal opinion but be wary of the response you may get.

RTE received a load of complaints

So what?

I do not understand at all what point you are trying to make re the Charlie Hebdo massacre

I asked you why you think David Quinn and I Own Her were all #jesusicharlie and yet have taken the exact opposite opinion as regards the RTE sketch

So nobody, absolutely nobody other than Sid disagrees with the decision here? Or are you just posting, either deliberately or through ignorance and incompetence, misleading waffle by counting "votes" from one source to bolster your arguement? OK Donald.

Read hat I wrote and include the links I referred to. I have said before that I have not come across a single mention of anyone making a complaint about the apology being issued.
So, AFAIK, the count is 5,000 or thereabouts versus sid.
For the record have you any credible sources to suggest that sid has more support than I have been able to find.
Aso for the record, I did not depend on one source to arrive at my conclusion. I based what I said on what I read in the INdo, RTE, The Sun and extra.ie and I know there are a long list of others if you care to google for "Angus mac Grianna apology."

False equivalence and you know it. I asked whether your nonsense was a result of ignorance or incompetence. It's evidently both.

What on earth has RTE receiving complaints about the sketch got to do with anything?

RTE also received a load of complaints about the series "Normal People" - sure Liveline was filled with pearl clutchers comparing it to a porno movie, prompting the memorable question "what would you see in a porno movie, Mary?" One eejit kept asking other callers "are you a Christian" - because apparently realistic depictions of sex are "un-Christian", maybe sex itself is "un-Christian", that's the impression you get from such people, and sure we all know there was no sex in Ireland until the Late Late Show came along

It appears you are now saying that RTE should also have issued an apology for screening "Normal People" and should have removed it from the RTE Player

All because they received a load of complaints

You are saying that TV companies should remove any content and apologise if they receive a load of complaints by fools

But that's arrant nonsense - of course they shouldn't

I gave my reasons at length for what I said. and supplied links where appropriate You provided neither. Like sid, you let sweeping assertions take the place of reasoned debate and you accuse me of false equivalance!

Who decides what "fools" means? You oe the RTE authority?
Yes, RTE received loads of complaints about "Normal People" but they also received loads of positive responses, something that didn't happen with Mac Grianna's attempt at humour.

sid, there is an old adage that says if you find yourself explaining, you are losing and I don't intend to stay losing with a pair of natural losers. So it's a case of over and out from me right now.
But before I sign out, you may recall that I have found thay you can come up with astounding assumptions in place of reasonable debate.
Where did I say anywhere anything that would lead a sane person to those conclusions?

If you can answer that question, I will come back and respond if I am able. I will admit I am wrong if I cannot.
Now if you want to come back with another tirade of half-backed assertions, you are free to use them as cyber suppositories as far as I am concerned.
Like the other loola, who jumped into the middle of an ongoing discussion without bothering to take context into account, you are prone to throw shit in the hope that some of it sticks.

I haven't the faintest idea what you're on about - to be honest I haven't had at any stage of our exchange, you've made zero sense - but I did love the inanity of you reciting "if you're explaining you're losing" - followed by a nice bit of personal abuse, as if this somehow constituted a point

That the people who complained were fools is a personal opinion of mine and I have not heard a single thing to make me change my mind on that

You are saying exactly what I said you're saying - your main "point" is that people complained, so therefore there should be an apology and withdrawal of the sketch from the RTE Player

Again I say, people complained, so f**king what?

People who complain are not owed a single word of apology because they did not like a sketch

The sketch did its job and nobody should have apologised - RTE and Aengus MacGrianna did so because of right-wing mob behaviour

As long as such a sketch did not veer into hate speech - which it did not - not one of these complainers is owed a single word of apology - they're cranks who are obsessed with right-wing political correctness - but the Catholic religious right has spent the last six years at least claiming they were against political correctness

So they are liars and hypocrites - and not once have you acknowledged this

Hopefully for them it won't be long before the churches open again and they can get back to their celebration of rape - sorry, I mean forced, involuntary impregnation, and cannibalism and vampirism - although the last two are not actually cannibalism and vampirism - just eating small pieces of wafer, and priests and communion servers drinking a sup of wine

By any reasonable standards it's pretty out there

You literally think people complaining about a sketch is grounds for a public apology and censorship of the sketch

Then there was the bizarre imagined scenario you created where you implied victims of assault bear some responsibility for such - you then extended this to the Charlie Hebdo massacre where you implied that the victims who worked at that magazine had it coming to them

Plus you didn't answer any questions

In fairness, Angelo, you probably could temper things a little bit now and again, post below for example re teachers:

Of course this would have nothing to do with June/July coming around the corner and the probable necessity of having received a vaccination to holiday abroad. Happy enough to strike on what they're paid to do and then happy enough to push more vulnerable categories under the bus to get their summer holidays abroad.

Teachers really are the bottom of the barrel."
