That’s rich coming from John Cleese, he was on the side of fucking over the peaceful state of international relatioships when it came to brexit, supporting the pricks that he’s now criticizing.
He should just fuck off to the cayman islands and shut up. He cashed in all his Monty Python/Fawlty Towers goodwill when he became Basil
Man that’s a pretty ridiculous comparison when you consider what the other two have done.
He spent most of his adult life dodging taxes – no surprise that he would be pro-brexit.
I feel thats two different things though. You can be an asshole about European union but still dislike Trumps antics.
“Deep down, I want to be a Cambodian police woman. Is that allowed, or am I being unrealistic?”
John Cleese on trans people
(He’s definitely an asshole about more than the EU)
Still an asshole in the end. Assholes disliking another asshole doesn’t make them less of an asshole.
The fault in the left.
Not supporting shithead right wingers?
Yeah, our fault for not being buddies with the bullies bully.
We can’t unite against a greater evil because we look to the right and they’re always right of us.
We look to the right and see the pro-trans crowd as well but making them our enemy while the people further right of them ruin the world won’t work out for either of us.
That’s what people are talking about by the above. If you were better informed you would have already known that.
Like cool, we disagree with him but we can disagree with him on those things not on war crimes. If supporting him would stop the war crimes then we could support him until the war crimes stopped though that isn’t relevant in this scenario.
I’m confused, are you saying pro trans is right leaning?
Yeah, the left doesn’t have gender differences (outside of biology) so people feeling like they’re a different gender means there’s too much societal power in the label. Take any person say they are xx or xy and then switch it. They’re still the same person.
However that wasn’t the point, it was about how not being left enough stops us from uniting against the people right of all of us.
You might be too easily confused.
It’s the virtue of the left.
Dammit. I thought he was funny, turns out he’s a xenophobic fuckhead.
I actually already couldn’t enjoy Fawlty Towers anymore, the racism is obvious to me now that I’m an adult. It’s distasteful. I guess for John, it wasn’t just “the times” the show was made in. Ah well, plenty of not-fuckheads whose work can be enjoyed.
He’s both: funny and a xenophobic fuckhead.
Although… I’m not so sure that he’s still funny these days. It would seem not.
Yeah, I agree. I guess I should have said I used to think he was funny. It’s been a long damn time since he said anything that made me laugh.
You’re allowed to enjoy something for what it is while recognizing it’s problematic.
Or follow gay humour where you find a bunch of fag jokes but you’re laughing at the bumbling fool/homophobic person.
But that’s what I’m saying - I don’t think those kind of jokes are funny anymore. When I was younger I thought it was all in good fun, that nobody really meant it and that’s why it was funny, but then I saw the world and realised it’s very much not. The humour was drained away by the hatred.
There’s a big difference between supporting fascists and dictators, and supporting the UK shooting it’s own dick off.
But yeah, people shouldn’t support either.
well, supporting one leads to strengthening the other. a fuckload of brexit propaganda money came from russia, which should make it suspect.
it would be three if Europe had a spine.
We are gelatinous.
It’s not a joke.
i never thought the dead parrot sketch was funny
Sir, this is a cheese shop

Don’t get to serious about membership. Trump just wants you to pay the membership fee.
Literally how Mar-a-Lago works. He wants people to pay him to make a rich boys’ club for heads of state because all the other ones aren’t money to him based. They’re just about how much money does the country have, like the G8.
It’s always a grift.
I think it’s that AND I suspect they allow corporations to join and that will legitimize corporations being as powerful as countries which allows dark enlightenment folks to have their corpo nation states

The world is going to end in nuclear hell fire, isn’t it?
We can only pray it does.
I am not a tech billionaire like Thiel. I would rather humanity both survive and thrive.
More likely to be economic collapse at this point.
Ecological collapse, triggering economic collapse, triggering open conflict, triggering nuclear fires.
I should place a bet on a prediction market. ;)
Why bother. The money on that bet wont be worth anything if it comes true.
That was a certainty from the minute they were proven viable.
For the ego of genocidal pedofile patriarchal narcissists.
Yep! If you didn’t saw china was just today talking about “protecting the world’s south”…
It might be a joke, but this shit is not funny.
I’m not sure we needed John Cleese’s acknowledgment, but yes it’s a good joke
All I know is: when a Python compliments your joke, you may have just peaked. Whoever wrote that needs to print it, frame it, and perhaps have it signed.
Sorry to be that guy, but John has gone down the “you can’t tell jokes anymore because woke” path and is also transphobic.
FML. Thanks for the warning.
Something’s uncanny about Putin here, is this a body double, AI, a much older photo, or has he had some work done recently?
Looks like the photo is about 12 years old, I put the link on TinEye and one of the earliest appearances is this April 2014 article:
*Bored of Peace
It’s literally a joke on all of us. “Bored of peace” is what 47 is saying.
