[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you're telling me that due to coprolalia, he has absolutely no control over his outbursts... yet his brain is "automatically" able to tailor a specific insult for a specific recipient?

Black people:  Ns
Queen:  f the queen

What's next?
SA survivors:  "you f'ing deserved it"
Women PhDs:  "dumb w---res"
Person in wheelchair:  "cripple"

Really?

I'd maybe buy it if he called everyone Ns or hoes.  But this just seems too far fetched.

Why does his brain go there, lol[/quote]

Watch the movie.[/quote]

The movie is all about how hard this is for HIM.  Even the scene where he gets punched in the bar.  Well... he threw a drink on a stranger.  How do you think that felt for the poor guy who just wanted to have a good time and a random guy douses you with beer for no reason?

The movie wants to convince us that "good, loving" people should embrace his outbursts.  Like when he says stuff like "I put c-m in your drink" and they're all "awww!  That's adorable!"  It's not.  I have children and I can't imagine asking my 8 year old daughter to put up with someone yelling "suck my d--k!" to her.  That's not civilized.  That's disgusting.[/quote]

Of course the movie is from his perspective. Maybe someone else can make a movie about living in a world and being accosted by [b]violent[/b], aggressive, and rude people who make daily life hard. There are a lot of them.[/quote]

I haven't seen any reports of this man being violent. [/quote]
There’s a video a few pages back showing him “accidentally” punching a friend multiple times.[/quote]

What he has done has is set back the acceptance of people with Tourette's syndrome by being the poster child for Tourette's even though over 90% of people with Tourette's do not have his syndrome which is Coprolalia (yelling obscenities and insults).

The timing of all his outburst seem attention seeking and to control a situation.  The times he interrupted were times when he asserts control and to maximize disruptions. During pre-event housekeeping speech right before the show starts he yells out "boring". The vast majority of people aren't thinking that. They say not to cuss and he does. He interrupts the speeches and presentations that will cause the most shock:

The president of BAFTA's speech by yelling f you
The children's and family film award - another f you
Black presenters & to a Black Oscar-winning production designer Hannah Beachler after the show - n word

So sure he has Tourettes and Coprolalia but there is some degree of antisocial personality disorder in there. Who sits there thinking let me yell f you to a children and family award show? Same thing when meeting the Queen. Let me say the two most alarming and offensive statements. Nothing like your clothes are ugly or some other random thought but about a b*omb and f you.

And then he never really apologize. He give a contextual understanding but never seems to show genuine remorse for the impact on the OTHER person he insulted. He frames the incident around himself, deflects responsibility, and minimizing harm. It is so dismissive to the victim. Well of course he seems to think he is the only victim. [/quote]
