Mark Night, "Sexist/Racist" cartoonist, gone from twitter

Posted on 09/11/2018 9:12:01 AM PDT by Tao Yin

Did Twitter remove @Knightcartoons from their site, or did he delete it himself?

Bing news has a collation of articles/commentaries about Mark Knight and the current situation

Labeled sexist and racist, he is guilty of wrong-think and his twitter account is now gone from history.

For me, this is my 1984 moment. At least the firemen who burned books had to physically destroy something. Today, when you are labelled a thought criminal, either the digital mob forces you out or the digital demi-gods smite you from history with a keystroke or algorithm.

Is this a mixed metaphor?

Are you confusing “1984” with “Fahrenheit 451”?

"For me, this is my 1984 moment."

That parallel to the current Big Internet Leftist Companies throttling of information came to me the other day too.

Alex Jones had the InfoWars meme (with the emphasis on WAR) correct, as it turns out.

My mistake too. I meant 451F.

It was indeed, a “1984 Moment”.

But the Firemen who burned books were from “Fahrenheit 451”.

There were Three amazing dystopian novels from around the same period.

The third one was “Brave New World” and all three of these have become prophetic.

Too close to reality to be funny.

There is no flattering way to represent Serena Williams in a drawing.

The woman is rude, arrogant, and very manly looking.

I’d say she looks like a gorilla but that might upset some people who happen to like gorillas.

The funny thing is that on the Bing homepage, where they show little thumbnails of trending stories, Serena looks a lot like the cartoon:

Saw the cartoon. It is neither racist nor sexist.

LOVE the cartoon!

He might as well have gone all in and put the Fraud on court also asking the UMPIRE the same question.

And that’s part of why I won’t censor myself when referring to that nasty thing of indeterminate gender.

All of these billionaires in the social media circle and Silicon Valley have forgotten that rich folks only support the Republicans.

There been a recent remake of the”Fahrenheit 451” movie. I’ve not heard anything about it But I assume that it’s been all PC’d up.

I’ll bet...I saw the original movie and it was cheaply done, but faithful to the spirit of the book. I wonder about the remake too.

Wait until their Cashless Society gets here.

We do not like you. Your balance is now zero.
