Im disabled and ive had people getting offended on my behalf for something that didnt even offend me. If the people the joke is about arent offended no one else has the right to be offended.
I started watching Joe Rogan recently when he got “canceled,” only to see him saying the N word but could never find it. Months later I’ve grown to like Joe and agree with most of his points. Im black and he merely only was acknowledging the word he wasn’t using it as a slur. But that’s my opinion

do you mean "house husband with epilepsy"? ill say retarded doesn't apply to you. my father is epileptic and he fought his whole life (still) to hide it. He's the top Civil Engineer in a huge county in America. I think you're a whiner. Then again maybe you're simply a retard. "Hard R" whaaa. That's ridiculous. Take some ownership for your life! It's rough for everybody. If you're bitching about a HARD R, you're comfortable.
My 71 Chevy Nova 454 big block just wouldn't run right. We tweaked the carburetor, drained the tank and used gas from a different station, we did a compression test, we checked the spark plugs and wires. Turns out the problem was that the ignition timing was 12 degrees retarded.

Joe hit the nail on the head. You can't change how people think. Intent matters. Removing the word "retarded" isn't going to stop a bully from making their target feel bad for their mental abilities. If they don't say retarded, they'll use some other words, and the intent is what hurts people.
I think they're already there. They call it body shaming. I've heard people complain about someone talking about going to the gym because it makes 'them' feel bad about themselves because they're lazy fucks and would rather motor boat a cream cake than get on a rowing machine
Kyle Walker we do that in Spain, “tarado” has “tara” for it’s root, which means “defect” (“defectuoso” which is a synonym is not used to describe people, though)
If you look up the levels of retardation the most severe is called "profound retardation". Tom is exactly right because I've been calling people profound for years now and it just hasn't caught on yet. Sometimes people think I'm complementing them which adds so much hilarity to it 😂
Calling someone “profound” is a compliment. The word on it’s own means “very great.” So you just might be profoundly retarded yourself. Way to go champ.
Yeah it's crazy people are literally always looking for something to jump somebody's ass about to tell them how they can and can't speak and I've been tired of it for a while
Dude its currently going that way... These people who claim to be Anarchist, are preaching Marxism which is essence they are Communists... they are creating safe zones on college campus's.

They are forcing teachers in Canada to use specific pronouns to describe transgender people. (Bill C-16).

So, I think Stephen Selph maybe thought I was talking about those looking to start a petition to keep Tom Segura on when I mentioned better ways to utilize their efforts. But to clarify, I think those 100,000 petitioning to get Tom Segura kicked off would be better in putting their collective efforts to supporting positive efforts towards special needs. But hey, too late, I've been motivated by his comment and created a GoFundMe in Stephen's name. Just $1 from at least 100,000 people would be super awesome.
In my high school we had a campaign every year called "Spread the word to end the word." The name in itself is stupid,but it gets better. One of their claims was to make "Respect" the new R word,so they sold T-shirts with a giant "R" on them with no additional context because the rest of the design on the shirt was blank. All of the special ed kid would wear those shirts during the week that the campaign was dedicated to..mind you, this was done twice a year. On top of that, we had play/concert for the special ed kids every semester. One holiday and a spring one that was a different theme every year. I was at a large school, and our theater had a max capacity of 800 people. So imagine special ed kids with shirt having nothing but a giant "R" on them doing covers of Disney songs in front of 800 high schoolers. Half of us were giggling/laughing from being very uncomfortable. These teachers were completely unaware of reality by making us watch that.
that's pretty funny, but I thought about it and realized some day some article is definitely going to be written about something like that; so imma save this for the future.
Joe tried to prove that context is necessary. And in a way, he proved it. Sticking up for his friends, making sure everyone's held to the same standard... He's a bro toward his fellow comics.
“How many people signed this petition?” “Over 100,000.” 100,000 R words. Edit: If you feel the need to clarify what “R word” means then you probably are one.
As someone with a disability who, truth be told, doesn't take a strong liking to the word "retarded" or people who use it, I feel like I need to stand in support of Tom Segura here. My biggest issue with these hard-line SJW-types critiquing and making violent threats against comedians for the jokes they write and tell is, they either genuinely don't understand or actively choose not to understand that humor is incredibly subjective. Whether or not you find something funny is perfectly fine by me, but the moment you go after someone who happens to have a different sense of humor from you, especially if your version of going after said person involves making violent threats, that's where you've lost my respect (especially when you're a quote unquote "progressive" type who allegedly calls someone a cocksucker to get your point across).
Irony this video is one of the ones that the cancellers are using to cancel Joe for using the "N" word....and proves the point about context...in no way did he use it offensively...IT'S THE CORE OF THE SUBJECT MATTER AT HAND
Follow it with he who shall not be named but this is the real world and the words are words most have evolved in meaning and context is more important than ever.
I understand what he means, mind you i am a white male so maybe I don’t understand, but imagine if you’re reading a book and you say the n word, no comedy, no humor, no offensive intent, it causes an uproar of angry people, most of which aren’t even black
It's strange how we take words (this one even being medical) and over time they are treated like slang and then all of a sudden, we have to call it something else because it became 'offensive'. Then in another couple of decades (or less) we'll need to replace that word with another again.
Melissa Thomas Strangely enough, yea. I think it's just knowing that someone out there would be triggered somehow gives me more energy to get through the day.
I wrote a whole children book. It's called the Retarded Raisin. He is a really dumb raisin who escapes the pantry and has interactions with other inanimate kitchen objects. Oh my gosh now I realise some of the looks I received . Makes me want to publish it.
@Riley D I know it's funny . Did you get offended by me being funny? Well that just makes it even more funny tbh. If people have that reaction, then even more will have a positive reaction. Should I apologise for being funny? Would you like me to write you a formal apology for inciting humour?

Jordan Peterson says, we appear to be living in the fever dream of a thirteen year old girl. The bit he missed out is... she appears to have fallen asleep reading 1984, Brave New World & Fahrenheit 451 for a school project.
The word retard is an actual term referring to physics. It means to slow down or be limited. In music, its the same. In developmental psychology, its the same. Getting upset by the word retard is the same as getting upset about the word inertia.
The way this man handled this public backlash should become a template for every youtuber, celebrity, or Internet personality that gets “cancelled”. Don’t fight, just show people why they’re wrong

Tom Segura is one of the funniest comedians ever, nothing he says is offensive No apologies needed...some people aren't smart enough to comprehend comedy
I have a son with Down Syndrome so I was very aware of the controversy and outrage going around on the Internet. I watched the special because of it and didn't think it was bad. It was a blip in the middle of a comedy show full of offensive material. People are crazy.
I know. People are absurd and need to grow the fuck up! You have a WHOOOLLE FUCKING HOUR of REALLY DARK material, but people get outraged when he drops the word retarded. Are you fucking crazy? Am I the crazy one here?? Maybe I need to be put in an insane asylum. lmao
It’s not even a blip as nobody whom isn’t trying to be deliberately cruel uses it in reference to actual disabled people. We use it to describe abled people whom are being exceptionally stupid. It’s a slur against the common person by common people, both in good humor or not. Intent MATTERS! Bullies can and will use ANY word to hurt people, so retard is in no way unique in that regard.
Kudos to Tom for letting upset people be upset, and not act like he's some kind of victim. Not surprisingly, he picked up even more fans from the controversy. Great guy.
The most concerning part of the situation is that at least 95% of the people who dont like the bit and complained about it aren't even suffering from any conditions
2019: Hey you wanna go see this comedian at the local comedy club and then go back to my flat and drink microbrews while we yell about how offended we are?
What's already started is people speaking about removing feminine and masculine part of a language. That's not so difficult in English but you'd have to completely re-write the rules of French and I believe Spanish also. I've also noticed that these people that pick everyone up on the slightest little thing, they are not trying to make the world a more pleasant inclusive world or whatever they would claim. They are often just nasty people and it is a way to attack someone and be destructive.

I'm a union elevator Journeyman. Most of my job is troubleshooting and that involves looking at wiring schematics. The older elevators often have older terminology. One of the terms is the word "Retard Switch", which is a switch that opens if the elevator overspeeds, as the open switch then causes the elevator to slow. In newer schematics, the term for this switch has been changed to other terms such as "High Speed Decel switch", "Governor Switch", etc. but they no longer use the term "Retard Switch", even though that's what it's doing, since retarded means slowed down, and to retard means to slow something down. It's similar that we can no longer use other old terms because they may offend someone, such as "Gay", or "Queer". We live in strange, very sensitive times.
Michael Srite I’m older than 25. And I don’t see what that has to do with anything. The reason it’s the word that shouldn’t be uttered is the reason I was caught off guard because if you are not African American you shouldn’t say it. Period. No matter if you say it towards someone or just making a reference because it’s a decisive word especially while being used by a white male. No matter the context. And it’s about how casual he said it like it’s ok and it’s not ok to say the word. But I love joe I don’t want him to say that again though
@Riley D Most of his work has a set-up and punchline that people react to, so I’d say yes. Just because he spoke his opinion about shit doesn’t not make him a comedian.
The way to think about is this...if you get comedians to stop saying something, you've taken one of the only real champions for humanity. Bravo to Tom for understanding his intentions were pure.
From George Orwell's 1984 "Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten."
i hope we can hear the joke here so we can see if it is actually offensive. although i hear things that dont seem so offensive to me that are seen as an attack on some group.
My youngest brother is 23 and severely autistic. He will likely require constant supervision and care for the rest of his life. It's been rough for him and our family but we make the best of it. Having said that, I laughed my ass off through that entire special!
I loved Tom Seguras special. The fact this all needed to be explained blows my mind. He is a comedian. Comedians make jokes. If you can't take a joke don't write articles about it and don't destroy peoples names over it.

@@-TheRealScubasteve- 🤔 it's either that or go fuckk themselves, what do I care. Its comedy and I'm a fan of Tom Segura. But hey, was bored and responded to a comment from 2 months ago and somehow caught are valued attention and response. I guess I'm doing alright haha. I know I was out of my mind bored when I commented, wonder what your life is all about to have the need to respond to my generic stereotypical "nice guy" comment? 🤔. But hey, we all got hobbies right.
@@-TheRealScubasteve- Oh hey bud, so I was curious to get to know you a bit just so I get an idea of who would want to comment. First off, congrats on 2 yrs with Hanah that's pretty cool. How's Tulsa? How'd you get into Dermot Kennedy, I listened a bit, kinda dig it. Oh and love the daddy daughter date stuff bud. I think that's pretty cool. I have daughters of my own so I get it and it makes a difference. And last, were you former US Army Engineer ? Cause if so we'd both be Army and that's kinda interesting also. Well, been fun, have a good one bud.
So, I think Stephen Selph maybe thought I was talking about those looking to start a petition to keep Tom Segura on when I mentioned better ways to utilize their efforts. But to clarify, I think those 100,000 petitioning to get Tom Segura kicked off would be better in putting their collective efforts to supporting positive efforts towards special needs. But hey, too late, I've been motivated by his comment and created a GoFundMe in Stephen's name. Just $1 from at least 100,000 people would be super awesome.
Joe really said it lmao. I wasn’t expecting that.

That caught me off guard so bad lol

Bro I heard it in my sleep and had to wake up and restart to know I wasn't dreaming lmaoo
In my high school we had a campaign every year called "Spread the word to end the word." The name in itself is stupid,but it gets better. One of their claims was to make "Respect" the new R word,so they sold T-shirts with a giant "R" on them with no additional context because the rest of the design on the shirt was blank. All of the special ed kid would wear those shirts during the week that the campaign was dedicated to..mind you, this was done twice a year.
On top of that, we had play/concert for the special ed kids every semester. One holiday and a spring one that was a different theme every year. I was at a large school, and our theater had a max capacity of 800 people. So imagine special ed kids with shirt having nothing but a giant "R" on them doing covers of Disney songs in front of 800 high schoolers. Half of us were giggling/laughing from being very uncomfortable. These teachers were completely unaware of reality by making us watch that.
Holy shit society has lost it LOL.

As someone with a disability who, truth be told, doesn't take a strong liking to the word "retarded" or people who use it, I feel like I need to stand in support of Tom Segura here. My biggest issue with these hard-line SJW-types critiquing and making violent threats against comedians for the jokes they write and tell is, they either genuinely don't understand or actively choose not to understand that humor is incredibly subjective.
Whether or not you find something funny is perfectly fine by me, but the moment you go after someone who happens to have a different sense of humor from you, especially if your version of going after said person involves making violent threats, that's where you've lost my respect (especially when you're a quote unquote "progressive" type who allegedly calls someone a cocksucker to get your point across).
Telling people they can't use a word gives that word the power you don't want it to have.
Yea i mean i use those words BECAUSE they are not ok in some way, to the extent that i have to combine words randomly to get fresh shock from them
Irony this video is one of the ones that the cancellers are using to cancel Joe for using the "N" word....and proves the point about context...in no way did he use it offensively...IT'S THE CORE OF THE SUBJECT MATTER AT HAND
Joe dropping the N bomb caught me off guard🤣🤣

I understand what he means, mind you i am a white male so maybe I don’t understand, but imagine if you’re reading a book and you say the n word, no comedy, no humor, no offensive intent, it causes an uproar of angry people, most of which aren’t even black
It's strange how we take words (this one even being medical) and over time they are treated like slang and then all of a sudden, we have to call it something else because it became 'offensive'. Then in another couple of decades (or less) we'll need to replace that word with another again.
Since when do Adults get into trouble for saying bad words? Guess we're all children now.
Phire sadly people with unimaginable money see it that way, who run the show.

The word retard is an actual term referring to physics. It means to slow down or be limited. In music, its the same. In developmental psychology, its the same.
Getting upset by the word retard is the same as getting upset about the word inertia.

I have a son with Down Syndrome so I was very aware of the controversy and outrage going around on the Internet. I watched the special because of it and didn't think it was bad. It was a blip in the middle of a comedy show full of offensive material. People are crazy.
I know. People are absurd and need to grow the fuck up! You have a WHOOOLLE FUCKING HOUR of REALLY DARK material, but people get outraged when he drops the word retarded. Are you fucking crazy? Am I the crazy one here?? Maybe I need to be put in an insane asylum. lmao
Why do you use the c word it's pathetic do you know not what too say or just sheep and follow what everybody else is doing
It’s not even a blip as nobody whom isn’t trying to be deliberately cruel uses it in reference to actual disabled people.
We use it to describe abled people whom are being exceptionally stupid. It’s a slur against the common person by common people, both in good humor or not. Intent MATTERS!
Bullies can and will use ANY word to hurt people, so retard is in no way unique in that regard.

What's already started is people speaking about removing feminine and masculine part of a language. That's not so difficult in English but you'd have to completely re-write the rules of French and I believe Spanish also.
I've also noticed that these people that pick everyone up on the slightest little thing, they are not trying to make the world a more pleasant inclusive world or whatever they would claim. They are often just nasty people and it is a way to attack someone and be destructive.

I'm a union elevator Journeyman. Most of my job is troubleshooting and that involves looking at wiring schematics. The older elevators often have older terminology. One of the terms is the word "Retard Switch", which is a switch that opens if the elevator overspeeds, as the open switch then causes the elevator to slow. In newer schematics, the term for this switch has been changed to other terms such as "High Speed Decel switch", "Governor Switch", etc. but they no longer use the term "Retard Switch", even though that's what it's doing, since retarded means slowed down, and to retard means to slow something down.
It's similar that we can no longer use other old terms because they may offend someone, such as "Gay", or "Queer".
We live in strange, very sensitive times.

Words arent forbidden. He said it once to make a point on how ridiculous it is. It's only offensive with intent behind it.
Michael Srite I’m older than 25. And I don’t see what that has to do with anything. The reason it’s the word that shouldn’t be uttered is the reason I was caught off guard because if you are not African American you shouldn’t say it. Period. No matter if you say it towards someone or just making a reference because it’s a decisive word especially while being used by a white male. No matter the context. And it’s about how casual he said it like it’s ok and it’s not ok to say the word. But I love joe I don’t want him to say that again though
words have as much power as you allow them to have. keep that in mind next time you hear an offensive word
