Oh that Liam Neeson joke

[@PrinzPassionsfrucht]

And now, it's an even harsher joke.

[@TequilaToothpick]

@@PrinzPassionsfrucht Why, what happened?

[@CurlyFry.]

@@TequilaToothpickApparently being called a racist, because he threatened to burn a black guys house down, or hammer them to death, because of something they did. Was it rape? I’m not sure, but it was some awkward business.

[@TequilaToothpick]

@@CurlyFry. Oh that. You misremembered. He didn't threaten to kill a black man because of a rape, he went out looking to kill any random black man that would start trouble with him.

[@CurlyFry.]

@@TequilaToothpick Oh. Thanks.

@@zerb9461 PC means politically correct, doesn't mean you stop being political. This show used to have edge, now it's just the generic trump bashing and predictable nonsense you'd expect from English television.

That Blue Peter Joke😅

[@seanspawn7805]

I like Liam Neeson. Last year he said a few words about what was in his head during a bit of a breakdown when he was a young man. He approached nobody, hurt nobody and got over his demons. Real bigots, misogynists and bullies have life long histories of such and they do leave a trail of hurt in their wake. Still, sorry Liam but the joke was funny..

[@lwaves]

Yes, it was what has become standard practice, for large sections of the media (social and mainstream) to blow something out of proportion, so they can get the attention themselves by being outraged. They completely fail to apply the full context of what's been said. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be joked about though and it was a funny joke.

[@TequilaToothpick]

Yeah the joke was awesome.

[@MorgaineRiddlePrince]

Can't get away from baby shark! Saw a meme on pinterest also. Free me from memories of that infernal song
