I also find jazz hands offensive, since I don't have hands. I type with my nose.

Then good reason to terminate the human race. I will clap for that.
Or only allow Zen monks in the audience, because they know "the sound of one hand clapping".

That explains why your posts are Snotzi.
The video becomes an exciting ad for what appears to be one of the Drake's Fortune's video games. I totally stopped listening while the train fight was going on, and then I guess the narrator was saying something important, and his message came on the screen as a printed page, blocking out the video game. This annoyed me, as I was totally into the game. Was the video a metaphor for what was being presented? What am I missing? Does anyone know what game that video came from? I think I might want to buy it.
He does that on most of his videos, advert for some game or another.
Maybe that is what financing his videos?
I ignore that and just listen to what he has to say.

And I have become a total fan of Styxhexenhammer666. I like his style and the way he trashes current society.
I'd use to vote labour, not anymore.
Interesting, because every source I see says that all that has happened is that the Student Union has encouraged the use of BSL over clapping, and that they neither have the authority to ban clapping at events nor even desire to.
I see the truth is still all you two care about.

But of course, I am sure some random on youtube knows more about it than the organization that proposed it themselves...
Im not sure on the legitimacy of this video, but in my own personal experience, I've dealt with at least 1 or two of these nuts lmao
I had a writing teacher in high school that gave us negative points towards our grade if we clapped. We had to do the fucking jazz hands. Each clapping instance was a check minus, 10 check minuses was a full letter grade reduction.
My friend Alex fucking clapped while she screamed "check minus!!!!" at him until he had 10 check minuses within a single minute. He was a true american hero.
I say in protest, everyone clap like the hulk.

Evidently it's not satire.
First they have the solution, then they find the problem.
Those poor oppressed “affected minorities†must have silently suffered for a millennia until now.
Finally SJW’s came up with a viable alternative.
Total win!

Can you give a specific example of a "solution before a problem"?

Well, finally a solution. Social justice has been served. Not before time.
Isn’t it fascinating how these people come up with these brilliant ideas? Where from do they get them?
Yes, because a suggestion for an event, at a university, a thing you know nothing about, is oppressing you so hard right now...

No. You did not suggest any solution. Nor a problem you were solving. To suggest a solution to a problem, you have to do both, and you did neither.

Is this because Muslims oppose clapping? I always thought a culture was odd, if they clapped in rhythm, rather than randomly. In some cultures, with way you clap is taken oppositely, as an insult rather than approval. Much as the OK sign with the hand is.
Rule No. 1. What Muslims want, Muslims get.
In the past there was a master race. (Germans)
Now there is master religion. (Islam).
The left hates religion, Christianity in particular, making sure that Islam is never offended.

Christian religious terrorism is still with us. They attack women seeking abortions, they attack people seeking to speak freely, etc. It just is a form you recognize as "terrorism" but that others do.
All religions would kill all of the others if they had the chance and ability.

Good point. Historically Hinduism and Buddhism are more tolerant, except for occasional tyrant rajas/kings. Though modern Israel is a bad example of Jewish imperialism (it isn't founded on religion, but Rothschilds/socialism).

Modern times ... Hindu violence against British occupation and historical Muslim invasion. Long memories in the East. Buddhists are even less violent ... occasionally they forget they are pacifists. Hindus are not pacifists. See King Rama.

The point is that those "peaceful" Hindus are just as mob-mad as any other religious types when they thoughts are threatened. All religions are alike. Insane.

Buddhism is the most sane ... that is why Vulcans resemble Mahayana Buddhists (who perfected logic in the East). And Vulcans are rather contemplative.

Not all buddists are non-violent. Check this https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-32929855
When pressed, all theism revert to violence.
One of the worst genocides in modern history (the ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya) is being carried out by Buddhists in the name of Buddhism.
The idea that Islam is unique in its violence (btw, lovely shifting goalposts) is patently wrong, much like nearly everything else that comes out of Pr's mouth.

Thank you. I missed mentioning that small "peacefullness" of Buddists. Quite right to keep us in the present of viciousness. I apologize for not mentioning it myself...
I also want to mention something I missed at the top of the thread. There was a post about how hand-clapping was bannined at Manchester.
As usual, such silly claims are usually wrong.
Snopes.com checked it out. In actuallity, it involved some switching out of hand clapping for British Sign Language signals meaning the same thing. I don't know all the details but you can find some information here. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/university-clapping-ban/

How about clapping with one hand only? Would that be less offensive?

University of Manchester Students' Union bans clapping (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-45717841)
QuoteReps at the University of Manchester voted to replace noisy appreciation with the British Sign Language (BSL) equivalent - a wave of both hands.
Union officer Sara Khan said traditional clapping can cause issues for students with autism, sensory issues or deafness.
But the move was criticised by some who accused students of being "pampered".
Under the new measures, BSL clapping will be used at student events such as debates, panels and talks.
Student groups and societies will also be encouraged to move away from audible clapping.
'Respectful environment'
Ms Khan, the union's liberation and access officer, who proposed the motion at a recent meeting said clapping can "discourage" some from attending democratic events.
So-called "jazz hands", she said, encouraged an "environment of respect".
"I think a lot of the time, even in Parliamentary debates, I've seen that clapping, whooping, talking over each other, loud noises, encourages an atmosphere that is not as respectful as it could be," she said.
