  • when people ask me what my motto is in life i post a link to this video.

  • yes, the thumb sucking society we live in today. Everyone gets offended.

  • @BvlgarigovIT nah, it just seems that way because you only hear the people that were offended--no one goes on CNN and screams I WASNT OFFENDED!..AT ALL...NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT! haha

  • He's goddamn right.

  • recorded with a tomato.

  • @lightside4 That's not what he's talking about.

  • @lightside4 I see where youre coming from, but its not as deep as that.

  • im offensive and i find this offended

  • Steve hughes

  • @JuneSoon Freeve Chughes

  • I'm offended and I find this funny

  • I saw him live supporting Reginald D Hunter, both were fantastic

  • Artige.no

  • Priceless!

  • ''27'' people were offended by this video :)

  • plumbo!

  • came here because of plumbogate

  • This guy is so right, it's astounding. We need more people like him.

  • i was offended by this..

  • cunny funt

    

  • hahah i love this guy

  • Isn't it interesting how often this rhetoric tends to come from people who've never been impeded in life by prejudice, and who have never had the hurtful experience of someone making fun of their deeply held beliefs?

    As an atheist I believe that the absurdities of religion are to be pointed out, and that humour can serve as a good way to point out absurdity - but I always do my best to do it in a respectful manner. Mankind in general has far too much of an insistance on uniformity.

  • @toresbe uh hu? then why are atheists not offended when christians try to persuade us that we're the stupid ones for not following god? because deep down... we know they are wrong... so we are not offended, might be annoyed by the moron yelling at us but not offended.

    So does this mean that religious people that get offended actually, deep down know what they are hearing is right? that they are stupid for believing in it? maybe thats why they are offended.

  • @behemuth

    As an Atheist myself, I have to correct you in saying that even though we believe all religion is bullshit, we cannot infact disprove the existence of any deity at THIS MOMENT in time (notice the emphasis), I would say we are just more tolerant than most 'devout' religious types.

  • @Dasfunkehzeit no, you're wrong about one thing, and it is one of my primary beefs with religion. that is that it is not falsifiable. which some morons like to think equals it can/is true. No, it is simply a round argument. if it cannot be disproved then it should not be taken seriously. How do you disprove a god which (by an idea that was stolen from Aristotle (and later attributed to the christian god) is beyond the material world, the prime mover which is not part of this world

  • @Dasfunkehzeit and behemuth I'm a Christian, and a political liberal, and I will defend anyone's right to believe however they choose to. I'm not alone. I think it's easy, when you're on one side of an issue, to form one view of the other side, and place everyone in it. We're not all the same. It doesn't threaten me that you don't agree with me. I don't need to berate you over it. Now, do I get the same courtesy? (You being figurative.) More tolerance everyone. =)

  • @Dasfunkehzeit Perhaps but on youtube almost all atheist seems biggoted and not very tolerant at all. Probably tolerant atheist doesnt get offended enough to make videos from watching all the cool/amazing/dubius/insane religius theorys floating on the tube.

  • @Jonzen77

    I'm not sure how you get that impression. When was the last time you saw an atheist video with heavy censorship on the comments page? Do you realize that that's one of the key features of something like half the creationist (or otherwise religious) videos on this website?

    Yes, religious people attack atheists for being "closed minded", and atheists attack religious people for using bad logic, but there's no contest in "tolerance" of ideas between the two groups.

  • @toresbe I agree, but its a shame that instead of manners and respect people use political correctness

  • Fucking great. Sleepless in Perth WA surfing the internet and viola, you end up in great places like this! We need to keep on taking the piss out of anyone who plays the offence card. BTW thanks to Claire Fox from spiked-online for getting me here.

  • I hope this offended people that are easily offended.

  • Anyone opposed to Jeremy Clarkson's recent comments, watch this!

  • @Danism1992 Too right. I am offended because 4700 mardy people complained about a show I missed, and now I can't watch it on iplayer because 4700 people decided it was too offensive. But they have now offended MY rights.

  • Thumps up if you got here by watching Ginger

  • @8883Tobias No.

  • To the people wondering why there are so many Giners have Souls vids, it's because there is this video called 'Gingers Have Souls: Hitler Remix' and in the description it says 'If you are offended, click this link' which is this video.

  • these top rated comments offend me

  • Reddit brought me here...

  • ha ha, right on! Love it.

  • NO WHERE does it say in the Constitution that you have THE RIGHT NOT to be offended. Like he says - "Grow up. Be an adult."

  • i love how like every comment is a reply

  • Well said, Steve Hughes.

  • uglllly hair

  • I was posting Steve Jobs jokes the other day and the amount of people that got pissy about it. I simply replied with this video.

  • @screwmanx a bit different mate. taking the piss outta someone that died rather than just calling someone a name is quite different. but still, they should only think it's harsh, not be offended themselves. so yes i agree. they should grow some balls.

  • Lots of bad things can happen if you offend people. They might shun you and/or boycott your product. They might sabotage your life in legal or illegal ways. They might become sad, and you might be the kind of person who don't want to make people sad.

    And if you're the person being offended, you'll either feel bad or learn to not feel at all. As someone who chose to build thick walls, I wouldn't recommend it. It's probably better to feel bad. As long as you can take it.

  • @Gillsing Sorry, but. I am not about to stop speaking what I thinki, because someone else Might become sad. That is a crazy criteria... if anything I say makes someoen sad. They need to grouw up...but.. frankly, that is not my problem, and I refuse to own it.

  • @clarissa35f Does that mean that you don't care at all if others become sad? Or does it mean that you would only risk making someone sad when you're saying something that's important enough to be worth the negative emotion? I didn't suggest that anyone should stay silent at all times, but without acknowledging the bad things about offending people, how could you determine if it's worth it? And I don't think it's crazy to care about how other people feel, even if I don't really care much myself.

  • @Gillsing Well, I take a very strict view about free speech, I do not say things ti deliberately offend anyone. But if In the process of saying something I feel needs to be said, if someone tells me." that offended me" i just say " you'll survive." Sorry, but I cannot relate with the idea that i need to hold something I believe in, because someone, somewhere might become sad over it... Free speech trumps people's feelings all the time.

  • @Gillsing I do Not go out of my way to make people sad. But if something I say, makes someone sad, and the options I had were speak my mind and make them sad, or shut up and they don't become sad, I will speak my mind. I am Not responsable for someone else's feelings. Their feelings are their problem Not mine and I refuse to own their problem.. everyone that feels they have a right to have their feelings protected is full of themselves.

  • @clarissa35f Of course people don't have the right to have their feelings protected, and you don't have to hold anything back. If you feel that even the smallest thing you have to say is worth the greatest discomfort of someone else, and that it wouldn't be your problem, but theirs only, that's your choice. And sure, they'll survive. Perhaps with a little damage to their psyches, but if you didn't do it, someone else probably would. I'm all for free speech. The costs are definitely worth it.

  • @Gillsing yay we agree. Glad we understand one another. There may be people around with little egos that get easily bruised, That is not my concern. I believe " sticks and stones can break my bones.." etc. Now if there are people that will not accept that, that is their choice. I am all for free choice. But, if someone decides to choose to live this way, it's Not my problem when something i say offends them. They choose how they live, they choose the consequences as well. :-)

  • this guy is funny as hell.

  • I can see that there is a serious debate going on here, but i have a question of more prosaic nature, namely: who is that man? I'd like to watch more of his work, therefore i ask.

  • @sindaptus his name is steve hughes

  • @0erethren0 Spasiba, may the God reward you with numerous children for this good deed.

  • this is genius, and its just the truth, this political correctness is like a mental dictatorship of the idiot people...

  • It's easy for one who has not been 'offended' for his entire life due to conditions out of his control(such as skin color) to say theres nothing wrong in being offended.

    Probably you wont wake up with leprosy the next day, but earning less pay, depression, physical oppression, discrimination, etc... Nothing wrong here?

  • @c0m4ndo45 "you're an adult, grow up, deal with it"

    Im a skinny short ugly pierced and tattooed guy, do you think Im out crying when people try to demote me? they're idiots and I'm great, people can think whatever they want, it's not relevant, if someone does not hire because of this(and Ive faced prejudice) it's their problem, really, what would do if someone up to you and said people who use the shirt colour you're on are dumb? you just walk away and let this miserable shit be miserable alone

  • @c0m4ndo45 as he said, you're an adult, grow up, deal with it(repeating myself..), why do you cry about it? you can no longer call your dad or mom now you need a replacement? your rights are in the law, if you suffer physical oppression, discrimination, grab justice.... people will get depressed by anything, in the old times people just learned from it and got out better... life's very simple really, but idiots complicate it then make it harder for everyone else

  • @c0m4ndo45 None of that has anything to do with racist Jokes,,, those are Just economic conditions... Look at Our President, did he  point to a bad racist Joke and say" that's why I am gonna stay out of college, and be unemploued, someone made a Joke." seriously... grow up dude.

  • ... and when I woke up the next morning, I HAD LEPROSY!

  • i'm soooo offended xD! NOT! 

  • Anyone know what this guys name is?

  • @TheElsarild "God".

  • @TheElsarild Steve Hughes

  • 14 people must have been offended.

  • "The beliefs of the people shall go unhindered, and they may engage in the practice of those beliefs, so long as said practices do not infringe upon the rights of their fellow man." -Sa Kri

  • Actually, I find this to be a gross misinterpretation of political correctness, which is, while by no means perfect, much better than people going around being racist and everyone just being all right with that.

  • @ignoranttwat Having a racist opinion shouldn't be an offence. Discriminating or hurting someone based on your opinion should be. He's not against laws that prevent people from acting in a damaging way, but rather the social environment that prevents you from having an opinion. There should not be laws protecting you from being offended. Go rant, get angry, make a fucking youtube video if something pisses you off. Don't expect somebody to change their opinion just to make you feel better.

  • @MachineMalfunction " There should not be laws protecting you from being offended. Go rant, get angry, make a fucking youtube video if something pisses you off. Don't expect somebody to change their opinion just to make you feel better." QFFT= Quoted for Fucking Truth

  • @ignoranttwat Racism, homophobia, misogyny, and other such bigoted views are not merely about being offended. As MM pointed out, it's about prejudice, discrimination based on prejudice, making people feel inferior because of what they are, and so on. Being racist/homophobic/misogynistic shouldn't be illegal per se, but any actions that go beyond offending people into oppressing them, causing them severe mental distress, or directly negatively affect them in other ways are not acceptable.

  • @PBDPBD "causing them severe mental distress, or directly negatively affect them in other ways are not acceptable." what if I say your opinion causes me severe mental distress, should youtube take down your comment? I am serious. he is completely right... this is so friggen subjective... that it is in fact funny... My answer to " that offended me is " grow thicker skin or stay off the Intrawebs"

  • @clarissa35f Look, you can take any argument to nonsensical and idiotic extremes. For example, you seem to be arguing that subjective feelings don't matter since they're subjective, and nobody ever has the right to be offended. So teachers should be allowed to verbally abuse their students (let's assume they're in college) by calling them racial/sexual/ethnic epithets and whatnot as long as they don't discriminate against them? Of course not. You have to use common sense in this.

  • @PBDPBD I already spoke on this. Harrassment is when it is imposed on you from outside, and you cannot avoid it. The peofessor may be harassingt you, by forcingt you to listen to his opinions. And they may indicate that he might not be fair in testing etc. But someone says something you don't like? " get over yourself." your bloody feelings are not what rules... free speech is More Important than your feelings.

  • @clarissa35f ok, so when the hell did I say people didn't have the right to say something someone else doesn't like?

  • @PBDPBD did not mean you personally. meant " you" in general... as in ' people that believe as you seem to believe." if you took it personally and got offended ( Kind of appropriate) that was Not my intent... but it was easier to say ' you" than.." people that feel that their feelings should rule all interactions". tell you what... replace the preceding where you see the word you... and again...I did Not mean YOU personally... ok?

  • @PBDPBD here is the thing, this whole thread is a response about offensive SPEECH. Talking about actions... and How wrong they are, either is off topic. or.. is a way of conflating offensive speech, with improper action, so that arguing for speech, is incorrectly seen as defending improper action. Not saying that is your goal, after all, only you know what you mean when you say what you say. But limiting discussion to speech, may be less confusing, than bringing in actions as well.

  • @clarissa35f lol i lol'd at this comment if felt like something the comedian would've said in one of his skits. Bravo!!

  • @PBDPBD who decides what actions are or are not acceptable? The whole problem with this kind of discussion is, it makes someone's feelings about what someone else says the ruling critera which is bullshit. Actions may oppress, but words never do, since words can be ignored. Someone gets offended by my fucking words i just say." grow the fuck up."

  • It's Steve Hughes.

  • I'm offended by boybands too.

The good ones pick out some of the MOST ABSURD things we do here in amerika DAILY and make joke of it, most of us laugh about it, and then tomorrow will be out there doing it again, proving them RIGHT. This has got to be the DUMBEST COUNTRY ON THE PLANET!! POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS HELPING IN THAT AREA! It must stop...but it won't

  • well, i'm offended when they take away my right to free speech! LOL, PC is sooooo stupid.

  • The boy band shit applies to justin bieber!

  • The messiah has spoken

  • This is one healthy dose of truth

  • "So what? Be offended, nothing happens!"

    Well, if you DID get offended & you woke up with Leprosy, then something DID happen...but what's the chances of that happening to you?

    To be honest, this is what the world should learn about; unless your head falls off from being offended, stop crying like spoilt children & move on!

  • 6 people were offended.
