Sarah Silverman Thinks It’s Time To Start Legislating Male Masturbation

Nope. I have also clearly stated that I'm pro-choice. The only stand that I needed to take for this thread was that both positions are reasonable, so Silverman's attempt at satire failed. This really isn't rocket science.

Yeppers, but irrelevant (or at least not determinative) for the Federalism question related to abortion.

So you also fail to acknowledge that ~50% of the country is "pro-choice" and the other ~50% is "pro-life"? Granted, I'm using rough, even numbers to simplify the issue for discussion purposes, but such denial suggests delusion on top of limited perspective. Again, this really isn't rocket science.

Alrighty, I'll sick with narrow minded then. There is no, nada, zero doubt that the pro-life position is both rational and reasonable. That certainly makes more logical sense than concluding they all hate women, etc. That's the definition of narrow minded, not understanding the different perspectives.

It's a benign analogy to help illustrate the point, and this is your response? Add bad faith to both narrow minded and delusional. Was the third the charm?

~Sigh~ You bring up the terminology of "pro", "choice" and the like, I respond, and then you call me the distractor? Really, I had higher hopes when I joined this forum.

 

Only comics can tell jokes? How inclusive of you!

I agree; however, the broker's "joke" was told to the other brother, not to the homeless person. Silverman is comparable in that I would bet she was attempting her satire with a similarly narrow minded audience, hence the analogy that I used.

Perhaps, perhaps not, but not responsive to the point I am making, namely why Silverman's attempt at satire fails (PC or not).

 

What a complete and utter witch. I am entirely on the pro-choice side, but this class warfare nonsense is really driving me up the wall.

It just goes to show how little she actually cares about equality. May she rot in whatever hell she believes in (probably none, regrettably).

 

Oddly enough, you appear unable to see what "you libs" (to use the general term) have done in the first five pages - I got bored after that but I'm sure there's plenty more from page 6 onwards - of this thread alone. To wit:

- so there's gotta be one of two reasons why you point fingers at conservatives for doing what your own side is doing: 1) They all must be on your ignore list, or 2) hypocrisy in action. I'm kiiiinda leaning towards 2.

But don't worry. No one here expects you to be upset about libs making baseless, ignoramus comment about conservatives in general. Oh wait - that goes back to 2 again, doesn't it? Oops.

 

Obviously not. If a stock broker is funny, and can sell tickets to a show he can make fun of whatever he wants. Casual jokes with friends are ok too, but we have to be a little more sensitive to those around us who didn't sign up for our sense of humor.

A complete stretch being that you can't possibly know what she was thinking. Maybe she was thinking it was funny, end. You can't know.

Comedy is a form of art, not everyone has the same taste. It failed for you, but worked for others.

She's a comedian... she was joking. Lighten up.

This is confusing. What is our "own side doing?"

My goodness it's hilarious seeing how many dummies were fooled by her trolling. Of course right wingers are fine with trampling all over women's rights so they see no humor.

 

I don't find hate speech against my gender funny, I find it very hurtful and offensive.

Maybe it's time to start regulating her speech.

 

Is it the child's fault women make horrible choices who they mate with?

I've seen the most greasy, inked up losers with gals who have "father" issues. They must know these men are ill suited for fatherhood prior to bedding them down for the night, yet they still make a choice here don't they.

Fatherless children is a separate issue.

The issue here is an unwanted pregnancy terminated by killing the fetus aka abortion.

In the case of forcible...well that's a separate issue I'm willing to discuss. However the fact is 99% of all abortions are sourced from a consensual act. The gal wanted to hump the guy in other words. Surprise, surprise, she's pregnant and the guy wants nothing to do with that. Off to the "clinic" and solve the problem.

Rinse, Repeat as necessary, to the tune of 1.2 million abortions every single year.

So really what's the real issue here?

The only choice the woman is making is a (*)(*)(*)(*)ty one, as usual, by behaving in a such a manner as to induce pregnancy; and the unborn child pays for this choice with his or her life.

The last time I checked immaculate conceptions are pretty rare. At some point someone made a choice. As I say, if it's forcible that is another issue entirely, I certainly sympathize with this situation much more. That's not the issue the vast majority of the time.

I would like to know what a mother would tell a fetus they have aborted, if this was possible.

I'm sorry I killed you sweetie, blame that third glass of wine, and we couldn't find a condom.

Things happen, whoops.

What is more serious than creating a life?

I can't think of anything more serious...so why is the act of creating this life treated so casually?

We have to legalize murder in order to appease a complete lack of self-control?

 

Oh weeeee, someone got his undies in a bunch.

 

Again, in the analogy, the broker told the joke to the other broker. I set it up that way on purpose. I also note that you have yet to address the actual substantive point of that analogy.

First you claim she was intending to be humorous and now you claim otherwise? She of course thought her statement was satire. What else could it be besides a normal joke. If the former, it evidences her limited perspective. If the later, I really don't care.

Again, my comments and analysis are based on my opinion that she was attempting satire, and (if so) it objectively fails. If it's just a joke, whether some find it funny or not is not my interest or concern.

 

You gotta Fight...
For your Right...

To whaaaack offfffff!!!

LOL!!

You ass. I could have choked on my tea!

 

LOL!!!

As funny as my post is it is no where as funny as those members who think Silverman was being serious! LOL!!

If we restrict comedians to politically correct topics only, we might as well live in North Korea. They're funny because they can say things we cannot and should not. It's funny because they go to an extreme that is outrageous.

The post you quoted was a retaliatory class warfare joke in the same format as Sarah Silverman's original joke in the OP.

Ha ha.

 

You are literally the most sexist poster I've read on this forum. Unplanned pregnancy is all the woman's fault, right. Thank god I'm a lesbian so I don't run the risk of dating sexist men like you. Where is the man's responsibility for ejaculating inside her? Is he just off the hook apparently? Then I bring up the women who do have their babies and the guy vanishes and that's somehow an unrelated topic. Women are screwed either way.

Oh, she's a comedian?
I couldn't really tell.

 

Do you have any idea how many unwanted, abandoned and damaged kids are languishing in orphanages in America? Once you have adopted a couple of them you can have your argument.

 

America has also supported, financed and encouraged terrorism. There's no room for moralising here.

 

Why don't you get back to me when you can discuss abortion if that's what you want to do (there is an abortion forum)....if you want to whine and moan about "reasonable, reasonable, reasonable", the new word you learned, and how"" everyone is so reasonable so everyone is right"" and how unreasonable I'm being but you can't refute one point I made about abortion ALL because you can't handle the debate that's fine but why bother replying? Because you like to post??

Since you really have no point and enjoy circles to avoid taking a stand, good bye.

 

I Agree! What a bunch of frightened rabbits....

- - - Updated - - -

Clearly it was a joke, satire, not a mandate from god....

 

It was a joke. That's her job. Then again, if a male comedian made snarky remarks or jokes about women and abortions, let's just say, the MSM would be in an uproar. It's how hypocrisy functions.

Well, yeah - YOU. I mean, you're whining about how the poow widdlle wibs are being unfairly painted as a group, while blithely and blindly unaware of what is going on around you. And you're the one who posted how upset you are, all I did was prove to you how unaware you are about how prevalent this is, as if this is only something conservative posters did here.

I'm actually more amused by your hypocrisy than upset about it.
