So not sure if this has been discussed but in Ricky Gervais new Netflix show called Humanity, he makes a "joke" about why he doesn't have kids. In this "joke" he talks about how he lies a baby down to sleep and the "oops baby is dead" he then goes on to act as if he is holding up the dead baby and then proceeds to throw it on the ground and starts to kick it all the while the crowd laughs??
Could this be part of trying to normalize this sort of behaviour?
The next one that sickened me even more is he goes on to "joke" about people that pester him while he's working. He says "So here I am working away and this pesky bloke shows me a picture of his 8 year old daughter and there's 3 ways I could react to this.." he describes two of them and then the third one is quite sickening he says "Well I could look at the photo for a bit too long and start thinking, oohh, oohh she's quite a pretty young girl, mmm" he then starts to bite his lip and act as if he's being aroused by the photo.. WTF!! That shit ain't funny and yet the crowd loves it!!
He also makes a reference at the start that the place he grew up in is now filled with murderers and pedophiles he says "well it was filled with pedophiles until the murderers killed them all.. well not all of them, but most of them.. there's still a few there.." Still a few there?? What pedos does he know in his old town??
This was all rather sickening and I feel it's being made acceptable because he is meant to be a "comedian" WTF is funny about joking about kicking dead babies and being sexually aroused by a photo of a young girl??
So after reading this tweet that links Ron Howard to all this and says watch for anyone speaking out against Trump.. then I spot this tweet from John Cusack that of course Ricky himself liked..

@goodguy1367, every major claim in your thread needs a supporting link (Rule 2). Can you please edit this to include links to the Ricky Gervais material? I'll give you the 24 Hour Grace flair to do so.
Boy, Howard was really gettin' it in the comments of that tweet!

I just checked and it's a Netflix only special so I wont be able to link to the material as its not on youtube so feel free to take it down! Just thought I'd make people aware of the shit these people talk and then the crowd loves it, probably because they don't know any better.. I mean some of the jokes in it are funny but to try and "joke" about a dead baby and kicking it around and then being aroused by a photo of a minor is just sickening
And howard had a show back in the day that GetWellIan tagged to me, just the intro is sickening, full of young kids almost burlesque dancing.. He should be copping it!
