Wait what, because I don't think I'm racist unless it is to turn down radical Islam and wish to push the spectator back like we did the Nazis in 45 and kinda to the commies in 91

Assuming that you meant spectre... Doesn’t the Austrian law work for all religions, not just Islam.

That doesn't mean that anyone thinks that Stephen Fry, the gay man of Jewish descent, is secretly a Nazi or anything stupid like that.
According to the article, some people do.

Some people are fucking morons.

The okay symbol isn't just a socially used thing. It's a universally recognised symbol taught to various professions where speech between people isn't available. And you're letting a few fuckwits mess with that.
It’s also worth note this shit has real economic consequences too. Our company just spent a couple hundred thousand dollars combing all our documentation, websites, interface screens, employee job aids, usable emojis, manuals, and so forth in order to remove the ok symbol from everything.
Yes really. Because the company doesn’t want to cause offense.

Platypus Bureaucracy wrote:Did anyone bother to look at the Twitter thread? It's a handful of people politely informing Fry about the gesture. They're not screeching at him for being a Nazi, they're not trying to destroy his career, no one's demanding he apologise or any of that. It can't even really be called criticism. They're just letting him know. There are just as many people whining about people whining about the symbol, and even more just...taking the tweet for the comment on mental health that it was.
Hell, one of the three quoted replies the Metro used was followed up by a second reply clarifying that he was joking. I counted only two more comments that weren't in the article. So that's one joke, four polite comments. Much Twitter storm. Truly peak SJW. Very sad.
If you lot were less eager to flip out about SJWs like Ostro wants you to and more inclined to, I don't know, look at the facts, you might just find that there's no need to flip out about SJWs.
Just a thought.

It’s doesn’t actually impose blasphemy laws anywhere. The Austrian Law existed before, all the ECHR did was say that Austria was allowed to enforce it.
That said, unless the British vote for one, it’s not happening in Britain.

Manchester for the Mancunians. We can be masters of our own destiny, not shackled to corpses of the South.
