More debates need a simple "CAN IT"
More rough than "can it". Pretty sure the closer translation would be Shut Up.
I agree with it.
Fermez le bouche
He said gueule, not bouche. It's the rougher of the two terms.
I'm not saying that's what he said, just another way to say "shut up".
My French listening isn't that good yet. What does he say?
Ta gueule.
Effectively "shut the fuck up".
"Gueule" is a mouth, but that of an animal, mostly a carnivore like a dog or a reptile.
I couldn't catch it either, but yeah, that's rough. Definitely a step above "shut up".
Yeah, there are a number of ways of telling someone how to shut up in French, (and Quebec does it differently than France). In France, this is one of the more aggressive / assertive / rude ways. But, the way he said it was a milder version, so it's more a "stfu" rather than "shut the fuck up".
There's "tais toi" which is basically like "be quiet". What you might say to kids being annoying. There's "ferme ta bouche", which is literally "shut your mouth". Or, "ferme la", which is basically "shut it". He basically picked the rudest form, but said it in the mildest way.

Some debates don't even need to happen anymore. No the earth isn't flat. No trans people aren't monsters trying to kill Jesus. No vaccines don't turn you gay. No the world wasn't created 6000 years ago.
We've legitimized too many morons in the world. Not everything is a debate, some things are just facts that need to be thought to the ignorant.
If only we did all politics like this.
let's be honest if the argument about anything is religious the person don't have enough brain to debate anything
I tend to agree, but as I've gotten older I've got a bit less strict with thinking all religious people are idiots.
But I'm still pretty fervently of the mind that dogmatic monotheism is honestly one of the — if not the — worst thing that happened to humanity.
The intolerance of narrow monotheism is written in letters of blood across the history of man from the time when first the tribes of Israel burst into the land of Canaan. The worshippers of the one jealous God are egged on to aggressive wars against people of alien [beliefs and cultures]. They invoke divine sanction for the cruelties inflicted on the conquered. The spirit of old Israel is inherited by Christianity and Islam, and it might not be unreasonable to suggest that it would have been better for Western civilization if Greece had moulded it on this question rather than Palestine.

Similar mindset for me. You can have your religion, I don't care.
But like masturbation, keep it private or with specific loved ones, keep it out of politics, or any public sector, and DEFINITELY keep it away from kids since they can't consent.
And hooboy do they love shrieking about consent
Until it's time to teach their 4 year old that thinking is for pussies praise Jesus
Quoth George Carlin... Commandment #11:
Thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself.
The silliest thing is that even YHWH was once but one of the Israelites' many gods. He just slowly ate away at their pantheon until there was nothing left but anger and jealousy.
As I've gotten older I've done the opposite! If they think there are any gods at all, then they make important decisions without evidence. That always spills over into more physical concerns, like climate change.
Choosing to love Jesus makes that man happy, and that's great as long as he doesn't try to ruin other people's fun. Why is that so hard for some people to understand? Just live your own life and leave other people alone.
us trans people try to do that, but we're constantly being told not to
Just live your own life and leave other people alone.
But then I'll have to deal with MY own problems! I can't live with that! I have to project!!!
That’s fucking awesome
5/5 I mean this tracks extremely well irregardless of which side of the fence you are.
I'm on the side of irregardless not being a word 🤓
Haha, got me. Dunno which brain damage was responsible of that.
so, jesus can it?
I was even more confused, because in German, that's an idiom. "Jesus kann es" would mean basically "Jesus is a capable/cool guy". I thought, he just rudely completed the sentence to shut the guy up, but people here are saying, he told the guy quite literally to shut up. 🙃
It sounds like what he actually says is ta gueule —translates to "your muzzle" in English—which seems to be one of the ruder ways to say "shut up" in French. Which, I guess, correlates well enough with the usage of the English idiom "can it."
Id watch it if the video palyed...

Genuinely a missing component of most debates:
Some questions have these things called "answers."
Memes
Rules:
- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
