So liam neeson, what made you think this story was appropriate for this interview?

https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/liam-neeson-interview-rape-trauma-racism-sexism-black-man-revenge-assault-a8764086.html

Having dated an Irish man myself who had an assault charge under his belt for defending the honour of a woman I understand the mindset liam Neeson has. But as I said to my partner, it still doesnt make it right.
Yes there are many people in this world that need to be taught a lesson, and they can walk through life Scot free never paying for their crimes or so we think. But we are not put on this earth to play God! Nor are we here to do God's work through punishing others. With that being said people are so happy to fuel hate, but ask them to show others love and compassion and they'll be recoiling and shrivelling up by the idea.

I will say this, the mindset of liam Neeson I do feel is violent, and I do feel is racist and by far ignorant.
Why because he didn't care who it was that he hurt, which tells me he doesn't view people as individual's, he lumps them all into one. (Because individual's from a group cannot think for themselves or think anything different? ) ignorant because perhaps he didn't have black friends or associations so dehumanizing them all makes it easier to kill one. And thirdly violent because he is showing signs that perhaps he had an underlying anger that he suppressed and perhaps that moment in time was the ammunition he needed to really dish out a good beating.

Now some my view what I have said and disagree but I'll tell you this. My relationship ended because he did think he was above everyone else, he talked about many things whilst we were together and we couldnt see eye to eye. He often talked to me as if I wasnt black but I was alright simply because I was dating him. Blanket terms are racist. And I couldnt stomach it, for much longer, maybe by him being with me made him feel even more of a cut above the rest because interracial dating is still fairly modern and he exceeded the preconceived notions he and his friends had about mixed relationships. Who knows, this isn't about him its about liam Neeson and his anger issues.

People are only okay because it’s him, if a poc said something similar he’d be called a terrorist lmao

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SW-User no you cannot say that because according to @SumKindaMunster
By listening to his words and interpreting what he said beyond just words he used that day and in that interview, we are

My point, since you asked, is that YOU are behaving poorly and judging someone you do not know based on a highly selected and contrived piece of media(the interview you watched) and I am calling you out for engaging in discriminatory and stereotyping behavior about someone you do not know other than what was presented to you by the media.

and I specifically

The rest of your comments are completely beside the point, and only serve to further reinforce the impression that you are an indoctrinated fool, enjoying and reveling in propaganda that reinforces your worldview and validates your biases.

@Peppa That person’s response reeks of their superiority complex, such people think they can get others to shut up by using big words
If a poc said something similar these very people would be shouting from the rooftops about how the celeb should be locked up

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SW-User agreed and I feel the same if the person of colour didnt clarify if it was a white Male they sought out to attack also

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa I'm pleased to see this. While I know you will never, ever admit to anything, the fact that you are thinking about what I said and it bothers you means I have gotten through.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

Oh really? There was just a story in the last few weeks where a popular gay actor claimed he was assaulted by a couple of MAGA hat wearing racists that allegedly poured bleach on him and put a noose around him.

The media took this dubious story and ran with it a face value even though the more time passes, the more unlikely this story happened as the actor said it did, and he is now being questioned for many of the discrepancies in his story.

You think if/when this gets discredited people will be shouting from the rooftops as you say? Will they be calling for him to be fired for lying? I highly doubt it.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster please send over the articles with the discrepancies in his story, because if it has been reported by a journalist I think it's safe to say that and I quote

So you met him personally and spoke to him about this or did you view this on the internet or TV? We both know you watched the interview through a media company, so again, you only saw what they wanted you to see. When I say "media" I am referring to any organization that discusses the issue, not just the original article in the Guardian.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster far from it. It doesn't bother me more it shows your ignorance and the fact that you are an online troll. You set out to antagonize me because the things I discussed with you clearly resonated with you and made you feel a particular type of way.
I'm glad my post made you think and reveal the type of person you are.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa

It doesn't bother me

Just keep telling yourself that. Your actions speak much louder than your pathetic words.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa I don't need to do that, for I am not the one opining as to this person's mental state(unlike you, who apparently knows what exists in an actors head after watching an interview with him). I am speaking factually, and you will note that I did not claim the story wasn't true, rather, my opinion of this person's story is that it is not true.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster so it's OK for you to assume your words have had such an impact on me but I can't do the same. Hmm sounds like that hierarchy thing going on here I think they class that as a touch of superiority... hmm...

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster

I am speaking factually, and you will note that I did not claim the story wasn't true, rather, my opinion of this person's story is that it is not true.

where are these facts you speak of please.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa I made no such assumptions. In fact, I stated clearly that I didn't expect you to believe anything I said, but I did say that your agitation was a good sign because it meant that I got through to you.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@SumKindaMunster

where are these facts you speak of please.

Are you asking me about the story I referenced? About Jussie Smollet(sp)?

I believe you are quite adapt at finding info on the internet, if you haven't familiarized yourself with this story, you should, it's insightful as to how things are portrayed in this day and age.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster why would I do that. I provided you with all the information you needed in regard to my post. And pulled much Needed information. If you cannot do the same tour comments about this other story are redeemed null here and carries no weight.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa Why would you do your own research? I dunno, so you can learn? Question? Challenge yourself? Challenge your assumptions?

Are you seriously telling me you have no idea about the story I am referencing? If it was me and I didn't know anything about what was being discussed, I would do my own research, not expect some other person to spoon feed me.

This is interesting to me, as I am getting some insight into how and why you are so indoctrinated. It would seem you sit passively and wait for people to feed you information instead of actively going out and seeking it on your own.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster well your the questions you are posing here are irrelevant. Because I can not prove that you did read this article or any others. And I'm not interested in discussing another story you are. So if you feel the need to tell me something that you feel is relevant to this particular story you should present me with the sufficient evidence to support that. Otherwise you are irrelevant.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa I think they are relevant. I am directly countering the narrative that you are trying to promote. You are not the only one reading this thread.

I noted you didn't answer my question as to whether or not you are familiar with the Jussie Smullet story. That's fine, and if that is the hill you want to die on, so be it.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster you seem to be directing this dialogue between us but refuse to inform me of the information regarding this new subject matter.
If that is your way of trying to intimidate me its not working. And anyone reading this will see its a bullying tactic with the intention of trying to shut me up.

So unless you provide me with the information backing up what you are saying regarding this new subject matter I will not discuss it with you. As it was not the subject I posted about.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa Sorry, but I am not buying your feigned ignorance on this story. If you are familiar with the Liam Neeson story, then you are familiar with the Jussie Smullet story. It is not remotely credible to claim otherwise.

Proceed as you see fit. My goal here isn't to have a debate on various news subjects with you, it's to counter the propaganda and narrative that you are promoting.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster don't apologize, you don't mean it...

Just to say your attempt to counter the propaganda. you have successfully failed to do! Have a lovely evening

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa Well again, you're not the only one reading this, and I certainly didn't expect to convert you.

Please don't tell me to have a lovely evening, you don't mean it.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster

Well again, you're not the only one reading this, and I certainly didn't expect to convert you.

what are you trying to imply with this? It means nothing to me.

And why would you say I don't mean what I said. I wished you a lovely evening because I want to wish you well... do you have evidence to state otherwise?

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa Ha ha ha, yeah I can totally tell nothing I said had any impact on you whatsoever.

Peppa · 31-35, F

@SumKindaMunster good night, I gave other things to do tonight but I'm happy to respond later on... Tata darling, have a lovely evening.

SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M

@Peppa 👋 Toodles!
