So, there you go, Patrick. One joke makes you shitty. Guess you wasted your time with all the excellent anti domestic violence advocacy. Don't think your work in support of veterans with PTSD will do you any good either. Or the pleasure you've brought people with your acting. Shoulda never told that one joke, shitty, shitty Patrick. Especially whilst also committing the deliberate offenses of being old, white and male, you criminal. P-Stew, you're the worst. Some random perfect person on the internet said so, so learn your lesson, old man.

lol butthurt patrick stewart fan.

I've barely seen his acting work, actually. I admire his charity and advocacy work. I think he has more to offer to the world than someone who brands entire groups of human beings as "shitty" based on shared characteristics of age, gender and ethnicity. And because of a what - one joke?

I don;t have to be a butthurt fan to challenge the internet's terminally offended self-appointed language/attitude/humour police to look at their own behaviour before having a pop at anyone else's. For people who are so keen on monitoring other people's speech, they are super-keen on describing anyone who doesn't live up to their arbitrary standards - or who belongs to a group they have deemed to be collectively oppressive - as "shitty" and "trash". The whole "your horrible language is oppressive, my horrible language is justice" routine - teeny, tiny bit of a double-standard there no?

Well, seeing as how you presumably don't give a shit about star trek and all that, I'd reccomend one of his most recent gig's, Blunt Talk.

To be clear, the incident does not reflect well on Patrick Stewart and the background has never been explained but he did offer an apology for his behaviour that was accepted and it's widely accepted that the incident was out of character. Is shitty a fair assessment, when set against how he usually conducts himself? I don't think so. Are his age, ethnicity and gender at all relevant to what he did that night - no.

Is it fair to denigrate all old, white men based on the behaviour of some of that group - emphatically no.

where did you see his apology?

(Anonymous) 2016-04-22 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know about an apology, but I do know that they've settled things between themselves - http://www.digitalspy.com/fun/news/a664333/james-corden-and-patrick-stewart-officially-bury-the-hatchet-and-then-use-it-to-saw-a-woman-in-half/

Thanks!

Calm down anon, no one said "OMG PATRICK IS SCUM!!11111!!!" Someone thinking, "Hey, this person might not be as perfect as I thought" is not the same as thinking they're a useless lump who isn't worth anything.

Though I agree with the other anon that it's hard to judge without knowing the entire situation, which it doesn't appear that anyone really does...

The comment said "Fatshaming. Shit. I guess there really are no old white men who aren't shitty" not "Hey, this person might not be as perfect as I though".

fat joke + old white man = shitty. Pretty unambiguous, imo. Do you have particular insight into the OP's thinking that would support your interpretation?

(Anonymous) 2016-04-22 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY.
