Not sure if I'm allowed to report this? Sorry if someone already has.

I mean REPOST this. Not report. Sorry fat fingers on phone!

Come on Ricky, get back in the game!

this interview too about people being afraid of being cancelled!

I think he gets it, but CBA with the flak. He's reverse ferreted before.

Ricky gets it.

His partner, Jane Fallon, seems v switched on and follows quite a few GC accounts on Twitter.

Yeah, he gets it. Too much screaming, not enough listening. Not enough balanced, nuanced discussion to listen TO from the offended screamers.

People telling JKR she needs to "listen" to trans people when what routinely gets served up in response to measured, thoughtful, nuanced comment is vile sexual demands, death threats and pornographic images. Listen to what? Someone who sends a picture of a barbed-wire -wrapped baseball bat and days she should be raped with it? Really? That person had already riled themselves out of the 'worthy of being listened to' category.

Of course he gets it and doesn't need to worry about money or death threats. Still skirts around it though. Would woke netflix cancel the man who consistently makes them millions. Doubt it.

The original tweet is from a parody account.
FYI its not 'this never happens' evidence. It's hard to tell- as posters on his thread say, the lines are blurred and satire is hard to write nowadays.

That tweet he retweeted is scary as hell. That man (not Ricky, obviously) is a rapist in the making. Hopefully Ricky fans see that and are disgusted by it.

No no dandy the account is a parody like Titania. It is funny. Worth a browse.

I'm pretty sure that's a parody account actually highlighting the insanity of some of this stuff. Similar vein as Titania Mcgraff

It’s a parody account DandyMandy. Titania’s flatmate.

Who wants that guy on their team? He's such a nasty bit of work.

I like him. He has talked about this in stand up many times now, and he put a piece in the last episode of afterlife at the end- remember the girl who’s dad had taken to dressing as a small girl and the monologue after they left the house? He is on it. I love him on twitter and his parody account. He also had his bobogervais account. He has literally be talking about it for years. He gets barely any grief for it. But then that’s coz he’s a man. A very rich man.

Richard Osman may or may not be talking about it. Same for David Baddiel and indeed Caitlin Moran in her column today.

That tweet is clearly about masks.

Yeah RO RT something earlier which was basically ‘if you’re writing in national newspapers you haven’t been cancelled’

I dont think he’s GC

Richard Osman has previously intoned the TWAW mantra. Gutted, I was. He comes across as clever and having integrity. (One of which must be an illusion.)

I suspect like a lot of woke men he won’t have given it much thought beyond ‘be kind’

Didn't realise it was a parody lol thanks for letting me know. I'm not on Twitter and honestly that tweet sounded exactly like what TRAs are constantly saying but obviously that was the point of the tweet/account in general.

Is Caitlin Moran pro JKR? I thought she was not very open about it?

Dandy it's very hard to tell parody from reality these days, I quite agree.

I've noticed he's liked a few Jarvis Dupont tweets recently.
