Adele

[Woffy]

I put an ISIS flag with a big red line through it as my Facebook profile pic just to cover all bases, but was criticised for discriminating against other terrorists groups and not decrying them all equally.

So I changed it to a picture of me shitfuckingfaced at Glastonbury. It was that or a cat dressed as a shark.

The only obvious solution is for every act at the start of their set to produce an enormous scroll and read off the list of atrocities and injustices worldwide that they oppose (kind of what Bono does already).

God help them if they miss a single one.

Based on their lists we can then try them at The Hague for Crimes Against Humility.

I'm more of a Jakarta or Niger terrorist attack condemning sort of guy. A terrorist attack condemning hipster really. I don't go for the obvious ones. It makes me feel better about myself and gives me the moral high ground because it appears I care about the bigger picture to people I vaguely know on Facebook. 

Where was your facebook flag when the terrorist attack happened in, say, Mali? Hypocrite. 

Adele jumping on the terror condemnation bandwagon, 200 miles from where she lives and in a country shes actually playing in this summer reeks of exploitation doesn't it. 

Ran out of up votes :(

Hipster? ok pal I dont jump on any kind of bandwagon though.......I dont see how changing a fucking facebook profile picture to ANY flag actually achieves anything........although I am an active member in many anti racism/anti right wing groups who work to stamp out the kind of hate these terrorists want to prosper to help promote their message....and my point about adele was the fact that these celebs only ever say anything when theres some sort of campaign they can jump on........something they can use for pr you know? call me a cynic but I think its utter bullshit if they really believed in standing up for the oppressed and helping people theres a fuck lot more they could and would do espcially with the resources, fame and money many of them have.

 

Had she said nothing I guarantee it would have made the press. "Adele shuns Brussels victims" or some such shite. 

Dammed if you do. Dammed if you don't.

Adele is a prism through which we can view the world.

Adele is a concept by which by which we measure our pain

Don't oppress me.

While since a new headliner had such connection with/first hand experience of the fest as a punter. Be great to hear her stories of the place from the stage that night, more of her experience at the fest, what her fave shows have been, does she wonder why theres a link between a local rugby club and Mexican food, has she camped down by Oxylers and said "never again" etc.

In the face of the growing terrorist threat its crucial that the above points are not diluted or even lost in the conversation.

I implore you to superimpose a watermark of me over your Facebook profile pic in protest of my oppression by Russy.

She camped near me in Park Ground last year. Spent all night every night filling balloons from those NOS canisters.

She was a bloody nightmare.

She's akin to Mother bloody Theresa and her fucking small-minded typically Albanian/Macedonian attitude of exclusionary Calcuttan-centric poor relief*. Disgusting.

 

 

*I realise this is utter bollocks btw.

Mother teresa was in fact an awful c**t of the highest order. This summarises things succinctly, with links to the relevant evidence:

"a fanatic, a fundamentalist, and a fraud"

If Christopher Hitchens was still alive there's no doubt he'd soon point that poison pen of his in the direction of Adele.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Aye, Mother Teresa was a bit of a dick.

Why would she do that? and more importantly: did you get to talk to her?
