For some YouTubers, ripping into Rachel Zegler in 'Evita' is all the rage- Page 2

Looks like the side of complacency and moral panic is too.

Wayman, did you actually sit through these videos? Did they cite anything? 

I'm disappointed this is even a thread you thought worth posting.

I'm just angry she took it back. Trump supporters are garbageand I resent having to share a planet with a single one of them. (I used to say "human garbage," but I no longer consider them human. They're just garbage that by all rights should be rotting in a landfill.)"

Reap what you sow, bitch.

What do you mean ‘did they cite anything’? You’re implying that Wayman is posting the videos as if he is suggesting they are true. He is doing the exact opposite of that, he is posting them to highlight this frustrating injustice for Rachel because they are false.

And then we have a bunch of people whose main contribution to this thread appears to be trying to silence and suppress talking about this injustice. On a discussion board no less. 

At this point, I am sick to death of people on this forum whose only contribution appears to be to try and attempt to control the speech of others. This is a discussion board. If your main contribution is to try and silence others, I would suggest you are not really contributing anything at all.

I haven’t heard a single convincing reason of why we should suppress speech about relevant issues? It can’t be about ‘oxygen’ because there is no logical argument as to why this thread would help fuel the fire so to speak and make it worse (willing to hear it if someone wants to struggle and stumble to argue how a tiny niche group of likely gays and women on this forum is going to make the problem worse when clearly the videos are already out of control with >100,000 views). 

I think it’s more that this is an emotional reaction where there are some who personally feel the best way to deal with this is to ignore it, to pretend it doesn’t exist. Who emotionally feel they don’t even want to legitimise this kind of behaviour. Well, fine - why don’t you actually then just state that in a calm and rationale way instead of throwing your toys out of a pram attacking the individual who all has done is bring this issue to the attention of us. That perspective is a whole discussion in itself, which could have been had. Instead, we get thoughtless emotional grandstanding where it's currently a competition of who can apparently pretend to be the most outraged to legitimise the suppression of speech for shallow emotional pretences.
