I think that's the point of his comedy. He knows in real life he's the quintessential smug North London liberal (and is perceived as such by fans and detractors alike) so he plays up to it in his on-stage persona for comedic effect.Stuart Lee is funny and all, but my god is he a smug cnut
I think he plays up to it yeah. He’s not as bad whenever I’ve seen him interviewed off stage. In fact Richard Herring is probably worse.I think that's the point of his comedy.

It's also very true you can't drink coffee in the hairdressers anymore in case it offends a Pakistani.
I agree. I also think it's possible, though I haven't personally, one could hear some of his lines and think 'will you just feck off?'. A bit like this Gillette ad I suppose.I think he plays up to it yeah. He’s not as bad whenever I’ve seen him interviewed off stage. In fact Richard Herring is probably worse.
Well will it stop you taking photos and uploading it?Won’t stop me looking at women on the beach
Way too modern for me. I'm from the era where best thing a guy could have is a vivid memory.Well will it stop you taking photos and uploading it?
Damn bastards care more about women than they do about animals!So will Gilette also stop testing their stuff on animals too? Or is that one pc bridge too far?
I know, it's crazy, because as we say in Holland: vrouwen?! Je kan beter kippen houden!Damn bastards care more about women than they do about animals!
To be fair to white males, their white privilege just gives them ample time and resources to go on the internet with their MacBook Air and shitpost on reddit.There is no group of people in this day and age who are as gifted in making themselves out to be a victimized group, than white males. This thread alone is evidence of that, even more so for the wider internet.
The ad makes no point of race being an issue, yet multiple people in here talking about “it’s a crime to be a white male these days” and “white male bad”
In real life, no. The white guys I’m friends with in real life are all pretty good people. It makes all the more strange to me to come on the internet and see the “it’s a crime to be a white male” type of people around.To be fair to white males, their white privilege just gives them ample time and resources to go on the internet with their MacBook Air and shitpost on reddit.
Also does anyone here know an actual white male person that is offended by this add?
I couldn't agree more on the subject of white males acting like victims. It's ridiculous beyond belief. There is literally not a single group of people in the history of the universe that has it better than the white male in western society.In real life, no.

My post was aimed at highlighting the stark contrast between the perceived victimhood they profess, and what reality actually is. I wasn’t trying to paint them as an entirely homogenous group who all think they’re victims, but there is a significant population, online at least, who are convinced of this, despite all evidence to the contrary. That’s probably why these views exist mostly online, because it’s too ridiculous to say in real life.
It shouldn't eitherWon’t stop me looking at women on the beach
Ahh okay, your bit about the MacBooks came across as a bit sarcastic, so I was wondering if you were agreeing with me or notI couldn't agree more on the subject of white males acting like victims.

Louis CK did a great bit on that. Still sucks Louis CK isn't cool anymore
White guys aren't victims, but I do sense it's popular nowadays to either make fun of them or wind them up. However, I also understand it may be deliberate to create controversy or publicity, which MTV for example aimed at with their 'Dear White Guys' video.In real life, no.

I think its in direct reaction to a minority but still a movement of males (not just white to be honest) who have started campaigning about the apparent abuse of their rightsWhite guys aren't victims, but I do sense it's popular nowadays to either make fun of them or wind them up.

Ha, ha same here mate. If I ever forced myself upon an unwilling female I'd have to ask if she'd mind waiting an hour or so for the viagra to take effect.Way too modern for me. I'm from the era where best thing a guy could have is a vivid memory.
Yeah these days.
These days mate, say you’re English and you get arrested and thrown in jail.

It's a play on their long running slogan, "Gillette the best a man can get". Can men get better an so on.I understand the message but I don’t get what it has to do with shaving? Or is it just a general campaign by the compan?

As for the advert, I'd say that Gillette are preaching to the converted. The vast majority of males in the civilized world accept that violence, oppression, & mistreating the opposite sex are wrong. Now if they could get the same message across to those countries who practice Sharia Law, where violence is commonplace & women are treated like dogshit, then I'd say they really were trying to make the world a better place as opposed to a globalist company cashing in on what is a highly emotive subject. Besides, those males who beat the Sharia drum generally grow beards anyway, so there's little financial incentive for them to push this agenda too hard in these countries. Or am I just being a tad cynical perhaps ?
That might affect their bottom line since (IIRC) China requires animal testing for products.So will Gilette also stop testing their stuff on animals too? Or is that one pc bridge too far?
