      The US-right-wing pile-on re Trudeau's "peoplekind" is pretty misleading. He was lightly ribbing a woman who was rambling about the power of women, "God the Mother," and how the world needs womanly love. Fox excluded her response to him: "There you go, exactly. Yes. Thank you."pic.twitter.com/Wl4QIumWrA

      Now what you did is misleading or ignorant—Fox did not exclude what you quoted during broadcast interview. I didn’t interpret interjection as a joke because Trudeau has made sensitivity & inclusive language an important part of his admin.

      The fact that you are incapable of understanding humor is the fault of neither Trudeau nor Dale.

      Trudeau this morning said it was a dumb joke that didn't work and he should stop doing that kind of thing. So the joke's on you, Jeet, and if you can't figure out why, "you are incapable of understanding humor."

      The quality of the joke is disputable. It's a tough situation when you have a questioner who is rambling & audience is getting restless. My objection was to ideological misrepresentation of incident (which doesn't seem to bother you).

          A "tough situation"? In a Jerry Springer episode, maybe. I guess that's what we've come to. If you want to bother with an "ideological misrepresentation" of a bad Justin Trudeau joke committed by Piers Morgan or whoever, suit yourself. The whole thing is a fucking embarassment.

          If you acknowledge it's a joke then you also have to acknowledge that those pretending it was sincere (Fox News, etc.) are engaged in ideological misrepresentation. That's a fairly obvious point.
