A couple of days back, following criticism for his support for Rupert Lowe's far-right Restore Britain outfit, John Cleese tweeted the following:I see I am being ritually insulted for my support of this man [photo of Rupert Lowe]
The uneducated call me a racist
I am not a racist
I am a culturalist
I believe that some cultures are better than others
I prefer cultures to do [sic] not advocate stoning, pederasty, wife beating, female genital mutilation, and beheading opponents
Call me old-fashioned... I think Cleese used to be funny, or something.
