Must Watch – An Absurdity of Social Media Outrage Explainer in under 60 Seconds

Ricky Gervais Golden Globes

Doing that thing we do can get people’s panties in a twist. We melt their snowflake, snap their twig. And we’re okay with that. A well-snapped twig often makes for a great follow-up. Maybe even a series of articles. That’s why we’d never try to suppress their speech.

The left can’t stop telling you how they feel, and that’s just fine with us. And it’s not just them—a topic which comedian Ricky Gervais recently isolated and crystalized for us.

Gervais is, of course, best known for a recent Golden Globes monologue in which he made fun of the Hollywood elite sitting before him. And we just reported on another absurd feature of the same event. A man won an award for best actress in the unbroadcast version.

Here’s Ricky boiling down the absurdity of Twitter in under 60-seconds. (Locally cached copy here.)
