Noel Plum | Are People THIS Desperate to Manufacture Outrage? (Re: Michael Rowlands and Peter Ferguson) @noelplum99 | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 6 hours ago
Planned to set this public tomorrow but put forward following a high brow response to me on Kristi Winters channel and this is sort of pertinent to that. Enjoy
People love to find things to be offended by online nowadays. In a bid to be empathetic towards those generally suffering we have ended up weaponising offence and there is no shortage of people ready and willing to eek out as much mileage of that as they can.
Even when, as is the case here, it involves an extraordinary twist of reasoning to turn what was actually said into something which could then be thrown back in my face in the future.
I won't make things that easy for the likes of Rowlands (and perhaps Ferguson, his motives are less clear to me) and if they wish to find some shit to smear me with they will have to do a whole lot better than this. This was just pathetic.
