‘Anti-semitic’ comedian Dieudonné M’bala M’bala has his show cancelled in France after Nicolas Anelka’s inverted Nazi ..

The first stage of a Tour de France by the controversial stand-up comedian Dieudonné M’bala M’bala was banned on Tuesday as a threat to public order – igniting a legal and political row over censorship and free speech. Dieudonné’s show has been widely condemned as anti-semitic.

Politically correct speech codes and hate speech laws are creating medieval repression. It is hilarious that the victim of the censorship is Black, a protected class, and that the extreme right supports his rights to free speech.

Almost all 6,000 places for Thursday’s show in Nantes in western France had been sold at up to €43 a ticket before the local prefect, acting as chief of police, ordered the performance to be cancelled.

6000 people have voted with their wallet, and are prevented from seeing as show they want to see.

The censorship effort makes him famous, but if there is no place in France that he can do his shows, the fame is of little benefit.

Lulu Application sued, outlawed in Brazil: privacy or censorship?

The Press reports that a Brazilian man sued Lulu and Facebook for defamation and breach of intimacy, conveniently omitting that TubbyApp, the Lulu Version for Men to rate women was already outlawed by a Brazilian court.

Women always tend to be more equally protected under the law, then men.

The male version of the Application (TubbyApp), was outlawed by the judge of the Special Court for Crimes against Women in Belo Horizonte   MSN

May I mention that there are no special courts for Crimes against men, for prison rape, Lorena Bobbitt dick slicing, false rape accusation victims,  birth control fraud, cuckolding child support fraud, or protection about indentured slavery of life time alimony enforced by debtor’s prison

who decided that the App Store and Google Play must not offer the application for download in Brazil, and who disallowed the social network Facebook to connect data of their users to the application, under punishment of BRL 10 000 per day for disobeying that order.MSN

The Brazilian constitution in article 5 IV allows freedom of expression but explicitly prohibits anonymity.MSN

The Brazilian constitution protects the inviolability of the image, honor, reputation and privacy of people and gives the right to sue for moral and material damages, when violated.

Human-Stupidity finds it offensive that one may not tell the truth while protected against retaliation, and understands that such laws hamper freedom of press and expression. Photographers can get sued for showing a person in unflattering poses while in public, and Google got sued by a man who vomited while Google Street view drove by.

On the other hand, we understand concerns about privacy. Imagine a happily married man like Tiger Woods would read 20 ratings on Lulu, about his sexual performance.

This breach of privacy would be very detrimental, and we actually would suggest the press to return to the old ethics code that kept John F. Kennedy’s trysts with Marilyn Monroe and other women out of public sight.  The opposite is happening, as Dominique Strauss-Kahn and Jörg Kachelmann found out, when falsely accused of rape. 

I believe Germany gives such privacy rights to individuals but exempts public persons like politicians from such legal protection.
