Anything with a Biden sign, Pride rainbow, or BLM logo.

Real curious to see how deep a hole Cleese can dig himself down into once this new show starts airing.

Greenwald is even caping for Bolsonaro in the service of lib-owning. Absolutely diseased mind.

I really don't think this shit was always there. I think he's been radicalised by rich buddies. That Idle interview you shared the other day was spot on when Eric referenced Cleese. Let him watch the TV and go to bed.

Gilliam has been in this camp with Cleese a lot lately too.

The sad irony is that, of course, this has nothing to do with freedom of speech. Cleese and his ilk don't want to be criticized, only praised for punching down. Unlike the young man he once was, this isn't about challenging norms and winning over the doubters; it's whining and seeking reassurance hugs from other aggrieved babies.

Gilliam's positions have actually made me look again at his previous work and find it stupider and less considered than I'd previously thought.

Given a chance to interview Cleese, I'd politely ask him to elucidate exactly what his positions that would get him "cancelled" are and the reasons why that might be the case.

Every damn one of these crybabies should be expected to both define the mechanics of "cancelling" and how it's distinct from criticism and consequence.

That is grim. Only watched a Bolsonaro doc a few weeks ago in which Greenwald features as a prominent and very vocal critic. Don't really pay enough attention to him to know what strange, twisted workings of the mind are going on there.
