Thats a bit harsh. He was getting a lot of criticism and it may have been too much to cope with. Deleting his social media so that the intolerant left cannot abuse him more seems like a reasonable action.

never heard of this Noone fella until yesterday but what he said was moderate enough and quite accurate.
if anyone on this board had posted the exact same thoughts as him they'd be labelled a 'Nazi' by the usual suspects on here, so not at all surprised by the pile on towards him on social media. hopefully he doesn't get cancelled for real.

I have seen enough posts from that poster to know how it goes

I'm curious to know, no justification required, its a discussion board and this as far as I'm aware is a place to ask, no need to get personal?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

People are allowed to criticise others. That's not cancellation.

He deleted his own social media. It was not done to him. He has not been cancelled.

Do you think he will be back on RTE after this?

I have absolutely no idea whatsoever. Nor could I give a f**k.

Who else was going to delete them? Are you saying anyone can delete someone else social media account?

The problem with modern society is that everyone has become so polarised that no one can have a conversation around any of this without being pigeonholed into being either on the far left or the far right.

You should just say what's on your mind? Everyone has a view and sometimes they are based on experiences, other times they are based on what they have read or heard, I can understand if its an experience that's shaped your view but when people start to listen and believing some of the stuff thrown out there while not actually seeing it or experiencing it, then its a bit odd. That goes for the lefties and the righties

We all judge things, rightly or wrongly and preconceived ideas on people/race/religion is rife, social media is able to get views out there and people start to side

No. Where did I say that? Saying that would be extremely f**king stupid. I can't delete Cristiano Ronaldo or Kylie Jenner's Instagram accounts.

However, if you think about it just a teeny tiny little bit, you might realise that the social media companies themselves can deplatform and demonetise anyone. Like the old Twitter did with Trump.

Me too. But he seems a decent skin and he can fairly sing.

I saw his post and didn't think he'd said anything overly bad.

I didn't see anything mental on twitter about him either but now all I can see is a mountain of videos saying the woke mob cancelled him.

Has he been cancelled? He suspended his tiktok and instagram and has been getting the love from Katie Hopkins and Andrew Tate but cancelled is a bit of a stretch!

Truthsayer

Never heard of him before today either. All over FB feed today. Glad I hadnt.. if that's comedy.. jees!
Heard wat he said.. seemed reasonable enough, doing his utmost not to appear racist. He wasn't cancelled tho.. he jumped. Maybe needs to develop a thicker skin if he's going to wade into that debate...

quit yo jibbajabba

I think there's cancelled, then "cancelled"

I'll explain better tomorrow 🤭
