Piers Morgan is one of those characters who tends to get up everyone’s nose sooner or later. However, he is the typical tactless man in that he says what many are secretly thinking. Now it seems the professionally offended are trying to get him sacked.
Musician Kennedy called for the presenter to be sacked for his ‘dangerous dehumanisation of transgender and non-binary individuals’.
Oh, fer gawd’s sake! Have these people no self-awareness (rhetorical question)? Knowing Morgan, he was taking the piss. And if you can’t take a joke, well, you shouldn’t have joined, so the old saying goes. And the alphabet soup brigade certainly have no sense of humour.
His petition, which now has more than 12,000 signatures, was started in response to Piers’s claim he is identifying as a ‘two-spirit penguin’ in a debate about non-binary gender.
See? A piss take. Nothing to get worked up about. I mean in what rational world is that comment “dangerous dehumanisation”? It isn’t. It’s taking the mick out of a group of activists who are so far up themselves they cannot take a light-hearted joke. I suspect that the majority of gay, lesbian and transgender people do not identify with the likes of Kennedy, preferring to keep their heads down and live a normal life without their identity or sexuality being used as a political weapon.
But despite gaining traction on social media, a counter-petition demanding Piers remain in post for his ‘common sense approach to life’ has now surpassed it with 25,000 signatories.
The silent majority, it seems has spoken.
Piers’s original comments were made in September in response to a BBC film that claims there are more than 100 genders.
There aren’t. This is a simple verifiable fact.
The GMB anchor was further infuriated by a report staff at the London Aquarium have decided the baby of a lesbian penguin couple should be raised gender neutral.
How can anyone take these people seriously? Morgan is often an arse, but he is spot on here.
Once again, it would seem that the cancel culture is in danger of backfiring and a jolly good thing that is, too.
I give him a free pass as he supports Arsenal.
Quite, one should make allowances for those with special needs.
So does Jeremy Corbyn….
Even a broken clock is right twice a day…this is the only thing I have in common with Corbyn ( I hope!!).
Corbyn is never right, he is just an utter, ignorant bastard, something he has in common with all Arsenal scum.
That’s a bit strong-not about Corbyn, about us Gooners.
The case of the non woke outnumbering the woke reached a new level when the owners of Flora Margarine pissed off mumsnet by reacting to a complaint from a handful of trannies. The amusing part is that there must have been some kind of boardroom discussion about what the response should be to the accusation that mumsnet was being transphobic. Not one person was bright enough to realise that mumsnet has considerably more buying power than the wingers.
Also, I don’t give a nanofuck about which football team you support.
How do they know the penguin is a lesbian it might be suffering from postnatal (or post egg) depression and just wants a female shoulder to cry on or have a hug!!!
Also there was an easy way to find out what gender you were, look in a mirror and count your bits. However after watching a mind boggling episode of Naked Attraction where some were Men becoming women and vice versa it was rather hard to say. Just hope the spacemen weren’t watching or they would have left our orbit at warp factor 1000!
