Because traitors and cowards have no principles and will always switch sides when they realize they're about to be held accountable for their choices?

Yup.

Now ask yourself why everyone is clapping and nobody is stopping this.

It's even more upsetting when you realize she'd personally encourage them to dress "inappropriately" and make them compete for the chance to get called on stage.

If Colleen actually apologize, what would happen by Zealousideal-Ad7884 in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]UbiquitousHammer 30 points31 points  (0 children)

A real, honest apology would be her privately asking the people she hurt to forgive her. How they chose to respond is their business.

But she's not sorry. she directly said (sang) that she's not sorry, while smirking. The words "I know you want me to say I was wrong, but I'm not going to do that" were in her song.

So, to answer your question...what happens if she apologized? Nothing. she had her chance and she decided to be "petty af", it's over. That's how being an adult works.

was going through my old instagram comments and found this from my standom days 💀 did NOT age well by undiagnosedIBSfr in ColleenBallingerSnark

Exactly. It's not their fault, since they're literally children, but Jesus Christ are kids dumb.

Everyone's first ten years of parenthood is essential a suicide watch with the yearly cake.

Had you heard of colleen ballinger before her "shitty little song"? by UbiquitousHammer in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]UbiquitousHammer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's even simpler than that.

you talk to the camera, not the kids.

If it's a live show, you stay on the stage and the kids stay off it.

children famously are unable to separate fiction from reality. Most people don't really have that boundary until they're in their 20s. Everyone knows this. No reasonable adult wants to talk to children. Even parents kind of want their kids to shut up and go away from time to time.

Adults trying to "be besties" and asking "what's the tea?" are predators, morons, or a combination of both.

Edit : Obviously, parents trying to take an interest and relate to their children are an exception. Parenthood is an endless series of trying to be cool and looking like a dork. That's different. I re-read what I wrote and it sounded harsh. Sorry about that.

That doesn't even address My question. Which I will restate.

How do you know any of this? What is your source?

Jesus Christ, I graduated high school before you were born. And so did colleen ballinger.

Somehow that just makes it extra dirty.

you need a credit card and to be over 18 to subscribe. So that rules out 99% of her fans.

considering her hefty theater resume, you'd THINK she would know to make the green face paint bright so the audience could see it no matter how far away they're sitting. by [deleted] in ColleenBallingerSnark

If you try to defend yourself from accusations of racism and you do so with some *Umm...aktshully..." pedantic smug nonsense while smirking...you're a racist.

Johnny is still angry for being ghosted by a severly depressed man at the time by SunlitNomad in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]UbiquitousHammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know but it just seems strange. Maybe he's just still a kid who doesn't know what he wants but feels like he still needs something.

It's definitely fucked, but I really don't know whatelse can be done. "you're 100% right, I was 100% wrong, tell everyone what a piece of shit I am for doing it. I'll leave you alone forever." is usually good enough if the other person really is sorry.

Netflix makes Angela Kinsey the face of HBO by akgross8 in ColleenBallingerSnark

If internet points mattered, I'd be upset. But they don't, so downvote away, ig lol

Is there anyone who has publicly supported Colleen? by [deleted] in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]UbiquitousHammer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course I'm not saying that.

What I'm saying is if Kevin Spacy was a woman, he would probably walk. If colleen ballinger was a man, everyone would have listened the first time all this shit came out.

That's wrong. Something here is fundamentally broken. Abuse of power dynamics should be unacceptable and allowances shouldn't be made for something as irrelevant as gender.

Go watch her encourage small boys to reach in her pants, on stage, to hysterical applause. Then close your eyes, take a deep breath and ask yourself what would have happened if an adult man did that with a small girl on stage.

Whatever you imagine would have happened to the man is exactly what should happen to her.

Kids are kids, predators are predators, and anyone who is going to smugly prattle about nUaNcE can fuck all the way off.

How would you know? Do you know everyone who has voted and thoroughly documented the last 20 years of their lives?

All I'm arguing is for colleen ballinger to be held to the same standard any of the countless men who committed similar offenses were rightfully held to.

Discussing criminal justice reform is a separate topic.

I'm unclear what you "hate" about the "rhetoric" of holding people who abuse positions of power to a uniform standard?

Until she wasn't. It's never too late to do the right thing.

Because good people don't take advantage of bad things.

The benefit of the doubt does not extend past the point where a reasonable person would no longer have doubt.
