The Asshat Thread

[Vidor]

I see Smith and Kiper and maybe Cowherd as blowhards but not quite asshats.

Have you read about Cowherd's racist dogwhistles about John Wall?

Big-time asshat.

Maybe someone should ask Sean Penn if "real men" beat women?

I love that holding a freaking sign is our idea of action these days.

No, it's creating a hashtag. The most irritating thing to me about that idiot woman who was attacking "The Colbert Report" a couple of months ago wasn't that she was some awful, humorless scold, but that she was called a "Twitter activist", as if making up a goddamn hashtag was a thing that mattered at all to anyone. Like, say, the Freedom Riders who were dragged off of buses and beaten senseless fifty years ago were activists, and some moron who starts a Twitter hashtag is also an activist.

[go birds]

online campaigns are [expletive] stupid

for reference please research the whole facebook campaign where people changed their profiles to their favorite cartoons characters.

or how about time time when everyone changed their profile pic to the pink equal sign or whatever.

yeah everyone stands together against bigotry.

....but those [expletive] haters still hate [expletive].

get off your computer or whatever you're sitting on while hold your sign and ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING

Agreed. The whole notion of it astounds me.

"If you don't bring back our girls, we're going to hold up more signs!"

There are not enough words to adequately express how much of a [expletive] asshat this guy is
