I would watch Beyonce, I enjoyed Lemonade much more than I expected to. I knew nothing of it until December, but Id rather Radiohead be the only repeat headliner.. even if like foos - I wont see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumfords third album completely killed what made them remotely unique and interesting in the mainstream, ditching instruments and just becoming a generic band fit for the stadium tours. Mumford have three albums? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched her set on TV when she last headlined and it was good, but I don't rate her more recent stuff. Beyonce should stick to Single Ladies etc. I find it all very false when she tries to be edgy and political. However, there's many that do like her and at least she'd be more of a surprise than the Foos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The less inflammatory, agitating one." That's it my dear, you just go back to singing nice pop songs while the men deal with that "nasty" political stuff.

Does he really not know how comically sad it makes him look when he says he feels "emasculation of his gender"? He's just openly admitting that he's a talentless hack who can only make a living in an unbalanced world. Surprised he actually used that phrasing, it makes him look really weak and pathetic, how doesn't he see that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can see, there are two different types of misogynists; there's the men who actually have power and genuinely believe women are inferior, they'd be the ones who just ignore such marches and don't take this sort of thing seriously. Then there's the ones who are actually threatened by feminism, that's who he seems to be trying to appeal to here; they're the sad lonely losers who can only hang onto their gender as a marker of their self-worth. Why would he want to court that type of audience or associate himself with them? Surely a mass audience sees that sort of thing and thinks of it as creepy and petty. It makes no sense for him as a big media personality to go for that crowd, so he must genuinely hold those views, which is really really tragic if he as a highly paid and well known broadcaster genuinely does feel that much inadequacy.

He's not daft. He's knows which way the wind blows and how to exploit it. He has after all been editor of both the News of the World and the Daily Mirror.

I was thinking of Katie Hopkins actually; both of them must have something about them, some sort of emotional imbalance that let's them live that life of knowingly and purposefully choosing to be a person that people hate. Piers isn't like her as much though, he sees himself as a sort of antihero, when all is said and done he reckons he's a man of the people and is saying what's secretly on people's minds. Kate Hopkins knows full well that everybody's going to hate her, and that's her intent behind it all, to offend everybody. ITV are fucking evil, essentially exploiting a mentally ill woman (albeit not a pleasant one) and intentionally broadcasting shocking viewpoints that exist to cause offence.

fatyeti24 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 If audiences didn't watch or read these people then they wouldn't have the jobs they do. There comes a point when you just have to accept that a large percentage of the people we all know and interact with hold very different opinions. Apologies for stating the obvious.
