Ever since the fake scandal erupted, I've sometimes felt like that other Simon in William Golding's Lord of the Flies. The one who could see what others couldn't, or didn't want to see. The one who knew who the real monster was. Because for me the real monster was the way the Con media covered the story, with a feverish one-sided assault on Justin Trudeau, so biased and so sweaty with toxic Trudeau hatred it was practically pornographic. And worse, because this one-sided hysterical coverage did not reflect the views of most Canadians, that gaping disconnect also struck me as totalitarian in nature, and a threat to our democracy. So I'm really glad to see somebody in the MSM finally call out the monster.
For as long as I can remember, Michael Coren has been one of the most ghastly anti-gay voices on the Canadian airwaves. A hardline right-wing Catholic who seemed to take pleasure in playing down the suffering of LGBT people, and mocking their struggle for equality. So you can imagine how shocked, and then pleasantly surprised I was, to see that he is now admitting he was wrong.
Remember how in my last post I said people should ignore how Lezra Levant, in an interview with Michael Coren, mocked the way Canadians were reacting to Jack Layton's death?
Well I changed my mind...
Because after screening the interview in question I now feel it may very well be...in fact almost certainly is...
And the most RIDICULOUS. So EVERYBODY should watch it eh?
Because if Sun TV News had any credibility left, which I doubt, it's all gone now.
You know... somebody should tell Lezra that the makeup person didn't work for six long hours to make him less ugly, only to have him put on a wig. Hint. Hint.
But they never tell those bitter nerds the ghastly truth, because they're afraid to hurt their feelings. Or cause them to spit when they talk...even more than they already do. So they never learn. And without that crucial feedback they are LOST.
Oh well. At least there's a bright spot eh?
Since Lezra is now doing the show in drag, in an obvious attempt to improve his dismal ratings.
At least now we can call him DIVINE...
Although, sadly, unlike the real Divine, there is nothing beautiful about Lezra.
You know I wouldn't be surprised if he dresses up as Ann Coulter next. And challenges the head of the CBC to eat a heaping portion of scrambled eggs off his ample behind.
While Michael Coren plays his limey organ grinder, and Christie Blatchford plays his monkey.
Although I don't want to be too harsh on the blazing furry fanatic, because HOURS before we knew that the killer was a Christianist right-wing scumbag.
He kinda....um... hit the nail on the head...
So if Shittle rolls her turds into some rancid pastry, and bakes it between her buttocks or her armpits, they can STILL share some humble pie.
Which is more than we can say about Coren eh?
Because he can't tell a sewer from the trickle between his ears legs. So he's still banging that nail. Into his own head.
Fear not, we are winning.
Golly. Has the Gollum lost his ring.... or his marbles?
Gawd. I KNEW this was going to happen. That old homophobe is going to Sun TV and he is determined to show Ezra Levant who is the top guy, the biggest asshole.
And the sleaziest Gollum...
Oh well. If they clutch and grab at themselves in loin cloths, and Levant becomes Coren's bitch, or vice versa, I suppose it could be funny. In a gross sort of way.
Although what's not funny is how after the MSM realized that it wasn't the work of Islamic terrorists, the killer morphed from a right-wing terrorist, into just another madman.
Anyone who claims therefore, that the perpetrator's "right-wing traits" and "anti-Muslim views", or even links with "Christian fundamentalist" websites are irrelevant is trying to draw a veil over the unacceptable truths of such "traits" and expecting us to believe that right-wing ideology is incapable of prompting someone towards such criminality.
Of course, that idea is nonsensical.
But that's Right Wing Derangement Syndrome eh?
Those ghastly right-wingers don't realize how ugly they are.
And they don't know when they're BEATEN.
Simon...Simon....you're not going to use this horrible tragedy against them are you?
I'm not exactly Michael Coren's biggest fan eh? When I look at him, and hear him hiss, through the large gap in his front teeth, he reminds me of Gollum in Lord of the Rings.
Crawling around on his belly desperately looking for a ring an audience. Scary.
When I hear his plummy English, it offends my ears so much I must struggle to suppress the burning desire to scream: "STFU you limey bastard!!!!!!"
In the clip, Mercer describes a school pic in which he's staring at another boy in his class: "I can remember, in Grade 3, being gay." To this innocent admission Coren snears: Mercer is "pathetic." How is his crush on a boy any different than any other student in the class, asks a clueless Coren. To the guy who once said gay marriage is "Canada's biggest mistake," the only difference is in our heads:
"We always treat gay people like children; their jokes have to be funny. Why can't we treat everyone in the same way for goodness' sakes."
Not just because it's so clammy, and icky, and old, and WEIRD. But also because it seems to be compulsive.
In response to a 1994 interview question about AIDS he responded:
"Look, people are dying all over. When it was blacks in Africa dying of AIDS, no one gave a toss. Nobody gave a toss. Suddenly, it's middleclass men in California and everyone goes crazy about it. It's a double standard. I'm trying to provoke people into rethinking comfortable points of view."
It just goes on and on and on. And still he dares ask this question:
Why is it that the love that dare not speak its name will not now shut up?
When the answer is so OBVIOUS. Because of homophobes like him, who would criticize an anti-bullying project, that's trying to stop kids from KILLING themselves. The limey slimy bastard. The nasty little gollum.
The good news? The way Cora's career is heading he'll soon be reduced to standing on top of a tall building with a megaphone, screaming hissing in all directions. "My pretties, my pretties where are you my PRECIOUSSSSSSSS?
Rick Mercer gets the last laugh:
"This is a perfect example of how it gets better, as I might have once let someone like Coren get to me, but now it doesn't affect me one bit," he responds. "I know the type of homosexual he likes: one in the Conservative party who does what they're supposed to do."
And best of all, the message of tolerance is spreading:
xZak777x: Whoa! Rick Mercer is gay!? That's so cool! :D
awagamgnalaw: holy cow Rick Mercer? that's amazing.
subinense: I didn't know Rick Mercer was gay !!! I think I was living under a rock (or in Québec) He's my new personal hero.
