I may get a lot of heat for this, but here it goes

Really, I don't see how I'd be in an uproar if a Republican used the word "Bitch," especially if it's used in the sort of Jesse Pinkman way Cher used it. Seriously, if Republicans started using the word "Bitch" regularly, and I'm honestly surprised they haven't, it'd just be small potatoes compared to all the shit they've come out in favor of.

Also, she said she'd move to Jupiter if Trump won, not Canada.

To me that person kinda started it. Cher was saying she would do something and this person called her a liar. When someone calls someone else a liar just because that kinda warrants the bitch comment.

This is the basic problem with, not just liberals, but many people right now. If you like their politics, they get a pass on their speech and if you don't like them, their speech is indicative of some dark interior evil.

When the same people who believe in micro-aggressions think it's okay to riot over somebody's speech, I wouldn't expect a lot of moral consistency from this world or it's people.

She probably is lying though. Don't talk about it. Just do it Cher.

I agree with OP though. I certainly don't want to live in a world where people no longer disrespect eachother, because that could only come close to being achieved through mass censorship. Calling people bitch or moron or cunt to their face or over the internet just pretty much guarantees that nothing is going to come out of the conversation though. You're not going to learn anything and the person you're talking to isn't going to learn anything from you if you're just calling them names the whole time. I usually show respect, even when the other side says "fuck free speech. Let's do away with it".

Maybe it's because her actions outweigh her choice of language in any sensible person's mind?

That's where the bitch part came from. It was bitchy to assume and call her out as a liar because they 'think' it won't happen. Maybe it will, maybe it won't but to pretty much say 'you are lying' is starting shit. If Cher doesn't do it then call her out on it then. Assuming before hand only makes an ass out of u, m, e (ass out of you and me)

[Whateverist]

What the fuck is wrong with calling someone a bitch?

Kim Davis is a bitch.
Trump supporters are bitches.
Donald Trump is a whiny little bitch.

I'll never understand how the fucking fuck words can be considered 'impolite'  They're fucking words!

Bitch, I hear you.

Just checking my theory that this is a word like the n word where you only get to say if you're in the target group.  I don't actually think you're a bitch, mind you.  Of course, from time to time who among us isn't?

They don't believe her because she has already broken other promises when it comes to her reaction to Trump and his policies. She promised to leave the US, and she went back on her promise, so I'd say people are being sensible when they don't take her at her word when she says she will take another pretty big step by taking a person or people in. Not being taken seriously is a consequence of breaking your word. That's just how it works. 'I'll believe it when I see it" is a perfectly reasonable position to hold.

Edit - or maybe Cher was just joking about leaving the US. I didn't hear her tone when she said it. Either way, people are sick of rich celebrities preaching at them and talking down to the little man like they are something special or that their opinions are particularly important, so I can understand people wanting celebrities to just shut up in general, and do something if they say they are going to do something without bragging about it.

If a Republican did this, or someone with Republican views did it

If a republicunt took in a Dreamer that would be NEWS.  I imagine they would do so only to call ICE to pick them up and deport them.

You've just ruined my plans for a new young cheep house keeper. Thanks a lot bitch.
