The fact they may not wish to see offensive rubbish and rather spend time broadening their minds seems too intense for you to handle.



How will they know it's offensive rubbish without seeing it?

Probably should just ban comedians from universities, the students need to be broadening their horizons. :gigglesnshit:


Of course they’ve seen it, they’ve seen that kind of bs most of their lives, they don’t want to give it a platform. They want to build a more civilised world not a regressive one.

At school, we could recite the Parrot sketch by heart. Sadly, 90% of Python output never reached those dizzy heights.

I'm not sure what the Parrot sketch is, but I'm sure it's responsible for your deviancy and lack of common decency. Hopefully todays Uni kids won't be afflicted by such tripe. :thumbsup:

Did Monte Python ever use any of these in their comedy sketches or movies?

racism, sexism, classism, ageism, ableism, homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia or anti-religion or anti-theism.

Possibly all of it. They were banned in their time, or had a massive campaign to ban the film ‘Life of Brian’. Now considered a classic of British comedy.

My Mum survived the Blitz - evidenced by the fact I was born after the War and not immaculately.

I never liked Monty Python. I remember kids at my college being obsessed with it and constantly quoting it. They were total prats. I can't help but associate it with them now.
