Do We Need to Censor Humour? | Good Morning Britain

[@Jacob-px4vf]

that finger shushing was the most childish thing honestly

[@JC-de1ik]

I'm surprised they didn't stop her but it was 4 years ago

[@robertmcelwaine7024]

Well, to be fair he did interrupt her while she was talking so the finger shushing was warranted.

[@Jacob-px4vf]

@@robertmcelwaine7024 when he talked for that one minute or so he didn't once personally insult her, when it was her turn she almost immediately turned to unnecessary personal insulting for no reason ( to degrade him obv ) , saying he's not funny. If i suddenly got insulted by a guest who is yet to make a point, id stand up for myself. YES technically he interrupted her but the reason for it is clear and quiet justified in my opinion. And for her to stop his defense by shushing like a pre school teacher is beyond an immature way of acting, she knows she cant defend her insult so she resolves to physical blockage of him talking.

[@robertmcelwaine7024]

​@@Jacob-px4vfShe was stating the fact that there are people who don't find his brand of comedy funny. When you're in the entertainment business you're going to receive criticism. That's the nature of the business. Not to mention the discussion is about whether comedy should be censored. I'm of the opinion it shouldn't, but never the less. Whether or not people find certain types of comedy funny was going to come up. Whether he interrupted Rebecca because he felt insulted or not, is beside the point. She had remained silent and allowed him to talk. I'm sure he would have had every chance to respond to everything she said after she had finished. So yes, I still think her shushing him was warranted and he was not justified in interrupting her. If he did feel insulted, then perhaps he needs to grow a thicker skin or get another job. People in the entertainment industry are always going to have their critics. That's how it is.

Konstantin - you are on all the normal peoples wavelength. Just keep going mate.

[@boguslawagumuchian2427]

She is making a fool of herself

[@richmotroni]

Actually calling her a fool is not fair to the rest of the fools.

[@ChasingEnigma]

Now imagine Konstantin shushing her, they would've been flabbergasted and cancel him. The audacity, only entitled people act this way.

[@agt155]

He should've said "that's not very kind".

[@aidk0910]

So true!!!

[@Jaymay45]

I tend to choose non violence but the moment she shushed me, I would have gone into factory reset mode

[@AWlpsSHOW36]

People would call him a mansplainer.

[@amazingandrea9983]

Give her a donut so Konstantin can speak!!!!!

[@aidk0910]

😅😅😅

[@adoreslaurel]

Wot! not another donut.

[@blobbertower9827]

Donut make body shaming jokes

[@cadizsummers3078]

Send her for the breakfast sandwiches, and hope there’s some left to share when see gets back.

[@bldrtom]

😂😂😂😂

[@RitaHutchins]

That was awful to watch. The Rebecca girl didn't respect Konstantin enough to let him make his arguments, and the really bad interviewers let her hysterically scream her way to not letting him talk.

[@laertesdd]

Did she actually shush him? I'm all against violence, but I admit I clenched my fist in this moment...

[@thenewmusicalcompany]

NO form of Art should be censured!!!! Art (painting, film, theatre, music) has always and will always have the primary objective of shaping human beings, their consciousness and their souls. Showing the dark side of our nature is essential to this process. And yes all of the woke taboo subjects should be discussed through art precisely so that the audience might understand why racism is bad, why everyone should have equal right,etc. Humans should be shaken, pushed out of their comfort zone, disturbed by what they see in art because that is how we shape ourselves. By confronting issues not hiding them, or censurent them!

[@shinobi-no-bueno]

Even if someone is harmed in the process of creating the "art"?

[@xvicious5150]

Unless your art is growing a fist and punching people in the face, you're not really harmed. Grow up

[@smoly37]

​@@xvicious5150you don't get it at all. I agree with the writer. And I think that in a society that calls itself sophisticated it speaks for itself that the line should be drawn at fysical violence. Some people are driven by making something they see as beautiful and others throw their anger on canvas. How about the "street-performance-art" in the 60's? We have had that discussion already, thank you very much. You're now trying to invent the wheel again.

[@notreallydavid]

Prob 'censored', not 'censured'. Yes? No? Please kick me. All best.

[@k.h.9074]

There is something wrong with a society that is scared of jokes.

[@RosalindandGanymede]

Comedy with boundaries ceases to be comedy. We need the old UK comedy again. And comedians like Bill Hicks.

We, the Poles have our own genre of jokes! I remember meeting a Fin and first thing he asks is “how many Poles does it takes to change a lightbulb?”. Immediate friend for life!

[@24279706]

What are these students who can't take a joke going to do when they get to the real world, and they meet people like me who are waiting on them with a string of offensive jokes😂😂😂

[@agalgonzalez]

Censoring is anathema to creativity in all forms.

[@pamh1648]

I agree that it is now about any person not being able to speak their mind for fear of being fired from their job, or having their bank account removed, or goodness knows what is next. It has gone too far.

[@_MjG_]

The elites/government must be loving how it's woke citizens are making it so easy to take away more & more rights under the guise that it's offensive to a select few lunatics.

[@bldrtom]

We’re kind of down to ‘Why did the chicken cross the road’ jokes and you better be careful with those.

[@tjmanou6422]

The colleges are the exact places that needs open mindedness not crybabies. I agree.

[@montyhall2805]

I remember when George H W Bush invited the comedian Dana Carvey to stay at the White House. Even Bush thought Carvey's impressions were funny. Censoring comedians is basically the canary in the coal mine.

[@OwenHarris-o2j]

If you asked the chumba wumba what anybody else has said she wouldnt have a clue😂😂😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@cvan7681]

That young woman actually said the words: "What you can and can't say". End of argument. True racism is quiet, it doesn't show up on stage.

[@josephperkins6675]

"You wouldn't make a racist joke would you." I probably would actually. Gervais made a great joke recently about a Chinese padeo, and who can forget Jimmy Carrs joke about gypsies.

[@ac10xxz]

Who let miss piggy on this show?

But it is not offensive to shush people?!? Thats the most offensive thing Ive seen in a while, my blood was boiling just watching this lady Rebecca!

How can there be a zero tolerance policy on both anti-religion AND anti-atheïsm?? I don't get it.

[@arturama8581]

The only jokes you can make with these kind of people are children's jokes. Everyone has long toes. Young people, especially females, LOVE to play the victim. It's an easy way to get attention.

[@MrChadLedford]

Never censor anything

[@garethreynolds8798]

A good joke will always offend someone. If you dont like it, dont go! Dont watch! Skip the news feed! 3:49

[@bridgetdoman1386]

One Christmas, many years ago, I visited a family I knew, a white family. The Pakistani boyfriend of the girl was also visiting with a couple of his friends, also Pakistani. He remarked to them "Well, if you were looking for a white Christmas..." Racist? I also love Irish jokes, as do my many Irish relatives.

Someone shouted "TRIGGER ALERT!" at me the other day at work. I had to look it up.

[@DmitriKatsman]

There is only one rule in comedy - anything is allowed as long as it's clever and genuinely funny. But if a purpose of a joke is merely controversy without a clever twist, then it becomes offensive to people. Why no one cancels Ricky Gerwais or George Carlin? Because they are FUNNY.

[@djyoutubo]

This was 5 years ago. Now, 2024, I have seen many comedians who say they stopped doing comedy at universities because it's impossible to do jokes without offending the masses of emotional hemophiliacs.

With this sort of women around, I’d be surprised if humour ever had or has existed at all.

[@mr.corcoran6296]

This woman would prefer we live in an Animal Farm. Here in America the Constitution does no guarantee you the right not to be offended. When people you don't like say things you don't like that means the First Amendment is working.

Da fac if u censor humor u need to go to the gulag immediately

[@elizabethmiles8953]

This is so patronising. How dare anyone think they have the right to decide what other people find funny.

[@benjaminclasper9355]

She likes very rude humour yet she wants to censor it. What is wrong with this lady and does she know what she’s talking about? I don’t think she does honestly. I bet if her parents were watching something as Rebecca as a young child or teenager she would have been saying “you do realise mum that this represents our society in completely the wrong ways and all of this is so very absurd.” And her mum would be like “ooooh yes, that’s nice dear.”
