The takeaway quote from the speech for me is:

Quote
If you do win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to make a political speech.

You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world

He wasn't saying they can't do it. He was saying them doing it makes them hypocrites and idiots who are full of themselves. He basically just said what the majority of the world thinks.

The awkwardness of the crowd was hilarious. I loved when he called people out for being friends with Epstein.

Um, you could say the same thing about any PaRD poster. We're not robots and we have one life to live so we're all hypocrites. We should quit acting like this is some sort of horrible thing. Frankly, bringing it up is a logical fallacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tu_quoque

True, but it's better to be privileged than to be a pleb so I think they will sleep just fine. It's sad that THIS is enough to quell so many people.

Yeah good point. Most of us here are millionaires who are out of touch with what the regular everyday working man goes through.

I doubt this actually is the trigger that wakes people up.

Why does that matter? Is this not a democracy? Who cares what they think? If you don't want to listen to them, you really don't have to.

We might not be millionaires, but we're pretty out of touch too. We're on a gaming forum FFS. What sort of demographics are attracted to that?
