Ace of Base having low key white nationalist lyrics are defo some of those unexpected milkshake ducks.
I remember reading about this a while ago, got any examples? :O
Joel makes 'attack helicopter' jokes sometimes, and that made me have to stop watching his stuff. :/ Trivialising trans people isn't funny, even if he doesn't realise where the 'I identify as an attack helicopter/check your privilege, cis scum' stuff originated (4chan). So yeah, Milkshake Duck. Vinny's OK though, I think.
God help me if James Rolfe turns out to be a bigot.
Yeah, I know Scientology itself is a really scummy organization, but I feel like Scientology as a whole is more to blame for brainwashing these dumb/impressionable celebrities into doing their bidding rather than the celebrities being malicious from the get-go.You might want to watch Going Clear if you think he hasn't hurt people while being a figurehead of Scientology.
Hell, I modelled my fucking hair after him. Christ.
I'm gonna need some lyrical examples. This sounds astounding.Poppy android girl having alt-right ties and Ace of Base having low key white nationalist lyrics are defo some of those unexpected milkshake ducks.
This developer actively hated them for their perfectly legitimate choice of failed businessman candidate.
Zakir Naik's Peace TV propagates Wahabi school of islam, which is ultra conservative and obviously you know that terrorists/extremists are big fans of ever since Saudi Arabia's nomadic wahabbism. Saudi Arabia gave him one of their highest awards for service to Islam. Peace TV is Saudi-funded. He is very wishy washy when asked if he is Wahabi but he says he's Wahabi if it means he's just a muslim. Then there's the obvious homophobia, he doesn't believe a person can be born a homosexual, that it has to be a choice. "Because they've broken the law of Almighty God, and they do unnatural things, that's how psychologically they become a homosexual...It's a sin, it's a crime, it will not take you to Heaven, it will take you to Hell". Zero empathy for LGBT muslims. The homophobia is not unique among Islamic scholars/preachers but it was a very disappointing reveal.Can you clarify Zakir Naik? My dad watches him a lot. I know he's been banned from certain countries but my dad made it sound like he wasn't at fault - what's the truth here?

Scientology as a cult is messed up but also Tom Cruise has personally done stuff that is messed up, that's why I'm recommending the documentary if you want to see the specifics for what he did to certain women and how he stands by as abuse happens with the Sea Org. His movies' box office are used to partly fund Scientology, him bringing so much money to the cult is why it's still so powerful.Yeah, I know Scientology itself is a really scummy organization, but I feel like Scientology as a whole is more to blame for brainwashing these dumb/impressionable celebrities into doing their bidding rather than the celebrities being malicious from the get-go.
And unlike some Milkshake Ducks, I never really looked up to Tom Cruise for anything. I like a lot of movies that have Tom Cruise in them, but I never particularly cared about Tom Cruise himself.
All they had to do was ignore volumes of racism that he actively endorsed and espoused, no one can judge them for that!
3) The guy that outed JonTron is actually a horrible person that uses autism as a very frequent insult.
I wouldn't include Gran Torino in this list

I think he means Destiny (unless Ethan is his real name). He made a blog post recently about how he was going to stop using homophobic and racial slurs, but still uses "retarded" and such.Are you talking about Ethan?
Nintendo
No, Destiny. Ethan is a friend of Jontron.Are you talking about Ethan?
You might want to expound on this one.
Could be about Nintendo not allowing gay marriage in Tomodachi Life. They declined a campaign by Tye Marini who was getting married IRL and wanted to also marry his fiance's Mii. Nintendo declined: "The relationship options in the game represent a playful alternate world rather than a real-life simulation."You might want to expound on this one.
Is that his support and affection for Enoch Powell? Unfortunately Powell had a fair amount of influence throughout the 70's. And Clapton strikes me as politically ignorant (he supported/supports the Countryside Alliance) and educationally below average.Eric Clapton
The song Sick And Tired off the veteran blues rockers latest album, Pilgrim, is the cause of the controversy, as it includes a verse where Clapton considers shooting a woman. The lyric ends with the line: Then you wont bother me no more.
There are some people whose work I admire or like who I personally would have a problem with. Steven Wilson for example.
Eric Clapton

Or was it the lyrics from one of his songs "Sick and Tired" - http://www.nme.com/news/music/eric-clapton-24-1391931
Or is it something else entirely that I've missed?
Chris Benoit was probably my favorite wrestler growing up, since his early WCW days. I remember us all going nuts when he won the Royal Rumble and then won the belt at Wrestlemania. Only a few years later, he murders his wife and son and then hung himself. Such a tragedy and it still makes me sick to my stomach even thinking about it.
Probably when I first heard about Woody Allen and Polanski?
Ethan is the guy who goes after the targets he wants, which are usually easy and aren't his friends.No, Destiny. Ethan is a friend of Jontron.
Ethan never made a statement about Jontron after he came out as a white nationalist. He likes to defend racist behaviour, like Pewdiepie's. He's gone after WSJ for reporting facts and tried to slander the writers.
You'd think cancer would have made Totalbiscuit a less hateful person. Nope!
He gave a pretty dishonest interview to an Israeli paper/site praising the country and completely ignoring everything else, particularly anything in context with the BDS movement or criticism in general. http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Culture/Meet-Steven-Wilson-the-anti-Roger-Waters-452881why? :O

There is an argument against the BDS with regards to cultural boycotts. Even Noam Chomsky has made it, and he essentially supports the movement. But he at least makes a decent argument why. But Wilson seems to be totally disinterested in giving a shit and strikes me as intellectually dishonest. At least in this interview. Maybe he simply gave the Jerusalem Post what they wanted. Either way he seems either ignorant or woefully dishonest. I mean it's as if it's Israel only and Palestine, the Gaza Strip etc are on some different planet. Incredible.
Oh no, what'd he do?Bill Cosby & Film Crit Hulk for me.
I'm surprised how many people are saying jontron. The thread wasn't all that active with this many people before the reveal.
Have a feeling it's in reference to the right wing/GamerGate/CHUD (what's left of it) takes on a piece Hulk wrote about The Night Of mini-series.Oh no, what'd he do?
This is how I feel, expressed better than I can.Nick Robinson being a milkshake duck is one that kinda hurts a lot at the moment. Like, stuff he's created with Griffin McElroy over the last year or two has been really important for me and has brought me so much joy, to find out that he's been using that public persona, that wholesome, inclusive image of himself that he'd created and the fanbase he's helped build up for that work to give himself power over people, to (by all accounts) be a gross dehumanizing horny creepo and harass people and know that there's nothing his victims are able to do about it because of the power people like me gave him, shit man.
Hell, I modelled my fucking hair after him. Christ.
