Going by that quote, I mean. Not read the article.

It’s so, so transparent how much of the mainstream media are playing both sides of this “snowflake” stuff - here’s a thoughtless/stupid/scandalous thing, here’s the outrage to it, here’s the outrage about the outrage - I don’t understand how people don’t see their strings being pulled.

That Gillette “controversy” was probably the best example recently - I’ve seen people working themselves up into an asbolute lather about it online when it was completely manufactured every step of the way.

Meanwhile, austerity, Brexit, war, Grenfell, Windrush, etc, etc.

I’m wondering if the spelling mistake is Clive Martin’s or the original graffiti :thinking:

Just the other day I saw the words “Seamus Milne” written in joined-up handwriting above a pub urinal in Kennington.

I think they’d argue it’s Mr and Mrs Milne’s.

Read the article now, seems to fall into that trap like when people find a minor twitter storm, and think pieces on it, and reactions to it, and think that is somehow representative of something other than a lot of media outlets with a lot of content to fill

fucking hell

Worth noting as well that Vice themselves basically held their hands up rather than taking the modern approach to these things of doubling down on it.
