COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: Silverman is criticising Caitlyn Jenner? Right, she’s a transphobe then!. That’s how that works. And she’s therefore wrong…
Oh no, hang on that can’t be right, because that then means then that there IS a difference between biological males and females. Which we all know is transphobic to say and deeply deeply problematic. Damn, these SJW paradoxes get confusing. Can someone help me out here? – BrandX.
Sarah Silverman falsely claims there’s no difference between biological males and females in failed attempt to shame Caitlyn Jenner
Sarah Silverman could do with a fact check. On a podcast episode, Silverman took aim at Caitlyn Jenner after Jenner stated that it's unfair for biological boys to play in girls' sports. Silverman was aghast that Jenner, a transwoman and former Olympian prior to transitioning late in life, could claim that boys and girls are different, with different capabilities.
"I saw Caitlyn Jenner saying trans girls should not play in girls' sports," Silverman began before admonishing Jenner.
"Caitlyn. You're a woman, right? A trans girl is a girl."
COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: So…
“Anytime [sic] they post (organically) in regards to social issues or their mission & values work (e.g. BLM, LGBTQ, sustainability/climate change, etc.) they are overwhelmed by negative/insensitive, hate speech related comments on their posts.”
… Now, although I don’t have the privilege of having been able to read every ‘negative’ response that they have had, I can’t help but think that when they say ‘hate speech’, they are including the most basic general opposing viewpoints. We know how this works at this stage – BrandX.

The world’s largest coffee company, Starbucks, is reportedly looking at leaving Facebook after “insensitive” and “negative” comments on their posts backing social justice programs.

The Facebook Oligarchs’ Betrayal of America
The hypocrisy of Facebook’s so called internal “supreme court” decision to uphold former President Donald Trump’s ban from the platform is astounding. However, this decision will ultimately help President Trump because it makes him a martyr for standing in defense of constitutional American freedoms.
Every American should take note of this decision. If the Facebook oligarchs can silence someone who served as President of the United States and received nearly 75 million votes, then they can silence anyone.

COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: My complete animosity towards Chauvin aside (almost as if facts don’t care about my feelings here or something!), looking at this objectively, this isn’t about Derek Chauvin. This is about making an example of him for the rest of us to see.
This is showing us all that under mob rule, the status quo that controls the said mob can do what it wants and get away with it. And the more they demonstrate that, the more they will continue it. Enjoy living under that folks – BrandX.
