rish comedy writer Graham Linehan has been permanently banned from Twitter after he tweeted "men aren't women tho" in response to a tweet by a women's group wishing men who identify as women a happy Pride Month.

Lineman, who had hundreds of thousands of followers on the social network, is the creator or co-creator of the sitcoms Father Ted, Black Books, and The IT Crowd.

Twitter said Linehan "has been permanently suspended after repeated violations of our rules against hateful conduct and platform manipulation."

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

I think JK Rowling got in trouble over this, saying that “trans” people who identify as women, are different from biological females. Anything said along these lines, is enough to get you in the target of the cancel culture storm troopers.

Then definitely check out IT Crowd and Black Books. With Father Ted they amount to a comic genius trilogy.

It takes perverse people to call reality hate.

“Hateful and racist” mean what ever they want it to mean. There are no standards but those of the mob on any given day.

We are hurtling toward a convulsion of massive proportions or we’re slaves. I don’t see a middle ground.

My wife works for IBM and “Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?” in an Irish brogue never fails to get a laugh. We’ve watched and laughed out loud at some episodes a half dozen times. It’s sort of like a modern Fawlty Towers or Mr. Bean.

Yep.

Look, you can say that you are anything you want from amoeba to fire breathing dragon. I don't care. But I am not playing in your fantasy world.

And dangerous. Plenty of people will choose to be silent because they don’t dare risk their livelyhoods. You can be sure this goes for teachers especially.
