Unless you have a completely private account where you approve manually who's allowed to follow you
Which would b a personal use one ig? Assuming those don't get many followers ? Curious as I don't use it much. As an end user it's obv easy for me to only see what I want

I can ask what the fuck is wrong with you also.

Saying a celebrity is handling a situation poorly while also thinking the people calling him a pedo is fucking abhorrent are not mutually exclusive. Both can be equal held opinions at the same time. I'm not sure what the issue is here. Did I make a joke about Omega? Sure, but it also should have highlighted how ridiculous the people accusing him are. Kenny Omega is not a pedophile until actively proven to be. The people accusing him are mentally ill basement dwellers who have zero grasps of reality outside of their echo chamber. Me jokingly calling Omega a pedo should have more than not highlighted that point.

Pedophilia isn't a joke, but making jokes about people making blatantly unverifiable accusations about pedophilia should be made. Much in the same vein that jokes about pedophiles should be acceptable. The point of gallows humor is to point out the ridiculousness and the horrible nature of these people in a fashion that helps people think about a subject in an easier fashion. If we were never allowed to make dark humor (while an acquired taste), most people would just outright avoid the topic and fail to compartmentalize these topics. It's why Hawkeye from MASH makes terrible jokes all the time, he's constantly thinking about horrible shit all the time and his way of dealing with it is to joke about it because otherwise, he'd likely kill himself.

----

As for whether Kenny Omega is a celebrity or not, he's a pop-culture figure in both wrestling and gaming. He's a celebrity in the same vein that someone like CM Punk is, just without the UFC appearances. I very much consider him around a C-List celebrity if that makes sense. People aren't going to recognize him unless they already watch wrestling.

So if you had alot of people harassing you, you wouldn’t do anything about it? Or since you’re some normal bloke is it okay to defend yourself? Why should you lose that right when you become famous or well known? They are people like you or me. They deserve the same rights.

Not to be too trolly but the first 2 paragraphs sounds your calling yourself a basement dweller making the joke :heston

We've discussed this already Blaze, I'm a well-known hypocrite. In my current state, I'd probably say something. Plus you guys harass me a lot as is whenever I voice an opinion. :hayden3
