The Guardian Newspaper: Where Rape Culture Is Acceptable If It’s One Of Their Own Journalists Embracing It For Cheap Laughs

You think The Guardian newspaper can sink no lower in its hypocrisy.

Only for it to do this.

The newspaper obsessed with rape and ‘rape culture’ (they almost coined the phrase, along with many of the political correctness memes now regarded as standard) now using the language of Donald Trump or some other misogynist arse turnip

You can picture the excuses already. ‘But it’s a woman doing it, so it makes it alright. It’s the same as when people of colour using n*gga.’

No it bloody well is not. It’s pointless to get on your high horses about rape and rape culture when you’re perfectly happy to use it yourselves, which in The Guardian’s case they go on about it to the point of complete obsession.

Only eleven days earlier in The Observer (which is to all purposes The Guardian on Sunday – owned by the same company and sharing the same webspace), it was full speed on the automatic handwringer with the following:

‘being exhausted by insidious rape culture’ – so exhausted that eleven days later they were big fat doing it themselves.

How obsessed is The Guardian that rape and rape culture are bad things and need to be stopped?

This much:

Barely a week goes by without The Guardian screaming hysterically about rape and rape culture when it has run out of other repetitions from its routine repertoire (‘racism is the greatest evil to befall civilisation ever,’ ‘Brexit is the greatest evil to befall civilisation ever, ‘the cancellation of the Doctor Who Christmas Special is the greatest evil … ‘ , etc.).

But this time Emer O’Toole a woman’s voice is being heard – and Marina Hyde from your own newspaper thinks it’s okay to joke about rape when the victims are people whose views you don’t agree with.

This passed a Guardian sub-editor’s checks and was declared fit for publication in the most insufferably politically correct publication – or at least likes to think itself as – in the whole of the British Isles.

How do its readers feel that the newspaper which endlessly plugs the above book from its online bookshop has openly indulged in a bit of rape culture ‘banter’ of its own?

Almost a thousand comments of sycophantic praise – the few dissenting voices being hastily erased.

The same Guardianistas screaming ‘misogyny!’ and ‘rape culture’ thrice before Trump Tweet call it ‘rib tickling … pithy prose’, the ‘best opening sentence in Guardian history’, ‘a triumphant return to top form,’ ‘wonderful eviscerating satire’, ‘priceless’, ‘wide spectrum view’ and umpteen billion ‘brilliant!’s over vicious rubbish a teenage troll would find themselves permanently banned from any reputable website for posting: not only the rape part but a bit of gloating about school bullying thrown into the mix for the lulz as well.

Or they themselves would be screaming for the police to take down had it been printed by the Daily Express, Mail, Telegraph, etc. directed as one of their idols.

For in the Guardianista disturbed idea of decency, it is acceptable for someone to be bullied or raped in proportion to how far they fail to share the same world view as The Guardian – a sentiment heartily shared by revisionist historians and the sort of people who join the Socialist Workers Party.

Pass the sick bag.
