Just because your speech is protected by the 1st amendment, doesn’t then make it right Or exempt you from scrutiny, No more than when slavery was legal, but obviously was wrong!
He was making remarks on statistics.
It’s Scott Adams.
He’s Dogbert FFS.
No one that has ever read his books or comics can even pretend to be surprised by his snarky and literal treatment of polled statistics that are being treated as facts.
Even if he does make racist statements, just pay attention to the other parts, like the statistics. Got it.
13/65 fact.
@Lea Garner Any idiot can make up his or her own statistics.
@Lea Garner – that’s the thing. Ppl like you love those kinds of “statics.” They have zero merit but you just love to have any kind of validation to be bigoted.
Time to boycott everything Elon!!!! Who’s with me!?
They are right. Amazing. If he was wrong CNN would show more of what he said instead of the commentary. For all to see.
Adams cited Don Lemon during his monologue. Why isn’t Lemon or CNN responding to it?
Fear
@Bran R Yeah, no conflict of interest there, completely unbiased
@Huizhe Chen 12% 👨🏿🦲 crime problem
He’s probably not allowed to, bc it will make Adams look better, and Lemon look worse.
As it should be. You have freedom of speech. You can pretty much say whatever you want to say. But free speech does not excuse you from the said consequences of your speech.
So you say something that you believe to be true, and a paper drops you (in this case). You are not being canceled. The said paper is exercising thier Free speach right. Saying they don’t want you anymore.
Now, if the government stepped in and said no more Dilbert cartoons, that would be a violation of your freedom of speech rights.
It’s almost as if all of you morons missed the part where Scott said “I quit”. They didn’t need to drop him because he was already gone…OF HIS OWN VOLITION.
Ironic quote of the week: “free speech comes with consequences” Don Lemon
but for Don the consequences are minimal. However his comments were a tempest in a tea cup.
Your individual “Freedom of Speech”
DOES NOT remove,
DOES NOT chain,
DOES NOT Supersede or Replace
The Publishers Freedom of Speech, or their right to decide whether or not to broadcast your speech.
I like how they conveniently leave out Scott’s comments about Don Lemon.
@Tim Henderson This should be titled when bigots cry racism. Oh wait, Trump isn’t racist. He just pardons people convicted of racial profiling.
When republicans lost the national vote the last two presidential elections, they also started caring about “minority rights.” Now, they’re worried about “racism.” Enjoy that karma. Do they know what the definition of karma is?
If they’re crying like snowflakes now. I want to hear what the kkk and these white people have to say after they’re enslaved for 400 years.
@Silver Cloud He was a racist. But this video isn’t about Strom Thurmond. It’s about Scott Adams racist tirade and Elon Musk supporting it. Sometimes people try to talk about other people or other things when someone or something they like has been called out for their behavior, they try to deflect.
@Tim Henderson don’t live near people who hate you what so racist about that? To me it sounds logical
Why do I feel like we’re in a much worse place racially than we were when I grew up in the 80’s?
@John Perrry you poor thing !!!!!!! I hope the plates didn’t hurt your ever so bigoted heart darlin.
@Max White guilt indoctrination.
You mean for white people right.. Because black people and people of color have seen the worst RACIAL INJustice in this country for the past COUPLE 100 years..
@Pedro Lopez 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Is this a joke???
Because the media has pushed it.
“Speech Comes with Consequences”
Remember that CNN.
Love how the cut out the Don Lemon quote, classic CNN
He’s right, stay away from them.
Cost of free speech is more than the price of eggs!
You don’t get it. Scott Adams wasn’t fired for exercising free speech he was fired for being a racist jackass!
If someone says it’s not okay to be your race, why would you want to hang around him?
Because it’s a weird question to ask in the first place. And how many blacks people even participated in that poll? 100 ppl, maybe?
They chopped the hell out of this
What does that mean?
“There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then (I) look around and see someone white and feel relieved.”
-Rev. Jesse Jackson, 1993
BOOM!!!!!!!
They are making the arguments themselves that proves Scott Adams is right.
lol at the one demanding “source” when it is commonly known quote.
@Pete P KNOCK IT OFF PAL!
@Bill Meyer Then doesn’t have the human decency to come back and admit he was wrong–after Googling the quote. It is always all about playing the victim. The cold, hard truth is…no one hates blks more than they hate and harm each other. The statistics do not lie.
Really, because when I check the rasta for registered rapist in my mixed area most of them are white men.
Lol at how they gerrymandered the ADL into this… and could he have said “free speech comes with consequences” any more smugly? Like, at least try not to sound like you’re smiling
I applaud both Musk and Adams. We need more people with balls that speak the truth and don’t listen to trash like CNN.
