I agree with this. Hell! I am Up for it. Turn the words bland. Make their use trivial by making Them generic. Like overusing Them to the point they lost all previous meaning. Turning Them into simple slurs that express Anger like "Fuck!" "Shit!" "Fucking!" Basically watering Them down. Or making Them Target Everyone at once instead of a specific group. Such as the follow "Dick!" Which could be used toward Everyone! Even if it uses are more likely be toward males. What I mean to Say is. No one Will feel attacked if those words attacks no one or instead Everyone at once because if they are used indiscriminetly, Can anyone really Say they feel targetted? Ironically. Everyone Who Will feel offended by words Who targets Everyone or no one are the most likely to be the ones AGAINST free speech because of their "sensitivity".
He is my favorite comedian. I remember when I was a kid in Cuba. His show was one of the few show that the government allowed. I don't know how many times I've watched Mr Bean and makes me laugh every time basically without speaking. True comedian.
Just remember kids. You have the freedom to say what you want to say. The rest of us have the freedom to call you an asshole if you say something unacceptable.
Sometimes I'm on a fence regarding freedom of speech. Yes people deserve the freedom to express whatever they want to express, but more often than not it will always create unnecessary conflict or crazy conspiracy bs that felt like society just walking backwards... People tend to extremely support freedom of speech and expression, thinking we don't need order and such, until they become the recipient of some bs speech against them and suddenly they started to think about boundaries and that freedom doesn't mean you can shit on someone's backyard and get 0 punishment for it.
@@lw9194words only hurt if you allow them to but when it becomes non-stop i can see it being more harassment than just expression. Learning to manage your hurt feelings or deal with what you dislike is part of being in society. Nobody should have a ruling on what everyone can or cannot say.
I'm glad free speech exists. Both because of the greatly positive effects it has on society and because looking at how people decide to use their freedom of speech can be a great determiner to their character
if anything is meaningless, its you. You are worthless, you don't matter, and i hope you suffer! Now, tell me, was that acceptable to say? and dont pussy out now and say "yes because blah blah blah!!" its obviously not acceptable to say. you cant just let people be a dick. you have to let people know when something isn't cool. do you get it now?

"...the best way to increase society's resistance to insulting or offensive speech it to allow a lot more of it. Our priority should be to deal with the message not the messenger." Rowan Sebastian Atkinson nailed it!

@@BunniBoyJuicy There are many people who are pro-Trump and who hold right-leaning views for whom Rowan's point in this video hits home. What's ridiculous is your failure to see that-and your insinuation that all who identify with Trump defend toxic and hateful behavior. What's even more ridiculous is that you would ever associate Trump with this kind of hate speech. He has only ever regarded minorities favorably, not least while in office, and has never shown overt racism or "homophobia." Not even a thousand mainstream media lies and sound bites taken out of context will change that fact, and you have to be blind as braille not to see it. Trump's alleged bigotry is nothing more than a left-wing conspiracy theory at this point, the irony of which is not lost on me. For the record, I don't associate with this channel. I've long regarded it as a grift, or, at best, a source of relevant clips. The sum of it isn't as important as its parts, much like you can stand behind someone without subscribing to their every belief or worshipping every facet of their being.
I just wish the gay, queer, and trans people could express themselves and be who they are and not constantly be harased, threatened, and hated on just because of their gender and who they love or dont love
I have no problem with gay people, just the trans ones, the gay ones are at least "normal" and don't shove their beliefs in your mouth, like if i don't want to call you a basketball then you can't force me to
"Deal with the message not the messenger" Amazing phrase. Yet we currently have people being arrested for sharing videos of riots and criticizing the country's terrible immigrant issue.
Nope, this is a way bigger issue in the reverse. People think just because they have free speech they can do and say whatever without consequences, which has led to karens and all sort of bullshit.
I love him even today. He may have made us laugh, but in some of his stories, he showed the dark facts of loneliness. His birthday celebrations episode made me cry. Anyways I am very happy to see him talking. Good luck to you, sir
I think it's because in England labour was in charge and while they were really good at other stuff like the economy they did create lots of stupid laws.
Coming from the man who was able to make us laughs without saying anything, it's really powerfull, when they are done with speech, they will follow with other forms of expression
He seems like a such a lovely person equipped with smarts and love for humor. I'd love to meet him. I think there is a clip of him refusing an award in a ceremony, can't remember why he did it though but it was for a good cause
Never watched him in any of his shows, tho ive always respected him because apparently he's a major car guy, owned a mclaren F1 and races at goodwood. And now i learn this? Dude just earned a spot as one of my favorite actors despite never seeing him act.

What's even more ridiculous is that you would ever associate Trump with this kind of hate speech. He has only ever regarded minorities favorably, not least while in office, and has never shown overt racism or "homophobia." Not even a thousand mainstream media lies and sound bites taken out of context will change that fact, and you have to be blind as braille not to see it. Trump's alleged bigotry is nothing more than a left-wing conspiracy theory at this point, the irony of which is not lost on me.
For the record, I don't associate with this channel. I've long regarded it as a grift, or, at best, a source of relevant clips. The sum of it isn't as important as its parts, much like you can stand behind someone without subscribing to their every belief or worshipping every facet of their being.
The fact that his speech feels so relevant is because the topic of his speech is and always will be relevant.
This man's facial expression is legitimately entertaining. I want to watch him for the rest of his life.
Why is this guy not the king or something like the president of the world
Rowan Atkinson for prime minister
Amen
I agree you should allow people to say whatever and society should just toughen up and learn to ignore people that say things they don’t like.
A man of distinction and rationality. Where are the rest?
This was a decade ago and today they are on the endangered list.
Mr Atkinson showing he is more than just mr.Bean. We love you both sir.❤
Mr Bean❤
This man is a legend!
You should be free to say whatever you want. Censorship is a dark and slippery slope!
We all remember him as the goofy man driving a mini and middle finger waving out the window.
In fact he is one of the smartest guys
Never realized Mr. Bean was chill like that
You know it's getting bad when the goofy Mr.bean, has to have a serious conversation and call it like it is.
I just wish the gay, queer, and trans people could express themselves and be who they are and not constantly be harased, threatened, and hated on just because of their gender and who they love or dont love
exactly this has nothing to do with queer rights and all to do with governmental oppression and control, and they will oppress everyone alike
I have no problem with gay people, just the trans ones, the gay ones are at least "normal" and don't shove their beliefs in your mouth, like if i don't want to call you a basketball then you can't force me to
@Wreniffer irrelevant
"Deal with the message not the messenger" Amazing phrase. Yet we currently have people being arrested for sharing videos of riots and criticizing the country's terrible immigrant issue.
We do not have people being arrested for that
@@johnclough3199 i'm afraid we do.
@@tomf0olery prove it
Nope, this is a way bigger issue in the reverse. People think just because they have free speech they can do and say whatever without consequences, which has led to karens and all sort of bullshit.
The store can always put a "no karens allowed" sign
That last bit is bang on! To deal with the message not the messenger!😮
I love him even today. He may have made us laugh, but in some of his stories, he showed the dark facts of loneliness. His birthday celebrations episode made me cry. Anyways I am very happy to see him talking. Good luck to you, sir
I think it's because in England labour was in charge and while they were really good at other stuff like the economy they did create lots of stupid laws.
This is from 10 years ago when the Tories were in charge
When mr.bean talks everyone shuts up and listens because hes spitting nothing but facts
Man is a true visionair and man of principle
One of the only guys from childhood who continued on to become some of the best of us
Love You Mr.Bean❤
Coming from the man who was able to make us laughs without saying anything, it's really powerfull, when they are done with speech, they will follow with other forms of expression
He seems like a such a lovely person equipped with smarts and love for humor. I'd love to meet him. I think there is a clip of him refusing an award in a ceremony, can't remember why he did it though but it was for a good cause
When Mr Bean starts speaking like a philosopher you know you need to listen to him.
Isn't this guy a real genius? He really is awesome!
Mr Bean/ Rowen Atkins is an absolut legend 💪🏻 his word are more important now then ever🙏
Exactly! The messenger is not the enemy, he's the warning for the storm waiting to come!
Never watched him in any of his shows, tho ive always respected him because apparently he's a major car guy, owned a mclaren F1 and races at goodwood. And now i learn this? Dude just earned a spot as one of my favorite actors despite never seeing him act.
Amen. People who listen to my music need to study this. They get offended so easily, so I can’t help but get more of what offends. 🤣
Wiser words have rarely ever Bean spoken.
This guy deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.
If his own country rejects him, the U.S.A. will take him in.
Wow! What a great message! What a great man! 🙏💙!
