I thought Colin's joke was clearly a joke. And I thought it was funny. I take umbrage with this part though. Dismissing those who were upset as just a few SJWs is the wrong way to go IMO. No doubt we got a lot of pious "games journalists" piling on, but I think you have to look at everything in context and try to understand where everyone is coming from. For as much progress as the Western world has made, women still face some serious inequities. Look no further than Donald Trump. The guy is on tape describing molesting women and he's our (The United States) president now. I'm not equating Colin with Donald Trump, and as I said, I thought his joke was funny. But I'm trying to understand all sides here and I can see how if you're a woman who saw his joke on something that is supposed to be a day of solidarity for women, you might just be fatigued. You don't want to be the butt of another joke. |
The left has become the new moral puritans, their grounding is not religious dogma, but political correctness.
Sex is now "molestation", jokes are "assaults", truth is "hate speech", choices are "inequties", same rules for all is "discrimination" and so on.
