What do u all think of Rosanne? My opinion is in the video below

- Start date
Funny how all of us are getting drawn into a conversation about two elitists (Barr and Jarrett) who don't give a damn about any of us, who will continue to live rich and prosperous, who have exploited common folk for decades (usually their own ethnicities). So one lost their worthless television show that did nothing to advance us as a species over a derogatory joke toward someone who actually ruined many black people's lives in Chicago in the 90s - which also did nothing to advance us as a species...
hmm
ya this shit deeper than a bad joke and a pissed off ethnicity, they playin with our minds like three card molly

It's not really free speech if you're repping a private entity. If Disney/ABC Network doesn't want somebody that calls black people apes, they don't have to have that person. Roseanne still has her free speech, she didn't lose it by being fired. She can still go on twitter and say whatever see feels like, but Disney/ABC doesn't have to sign her paychecks either.

Sitcom lady points out resemblance of another lady and a movie character... NATIONAL OUTRAGE
Talk show lady calls another lady feckless cunt
NATIONAL OUTRAGE
The term “hate speech” is meant to shut down free speech.
Big tech:google fb Twitter are all censoring free speech.
You can make the private company argument and it is valid, I agree w u. But that doesn’t make it right, and it also doesn’t make it not an attack on free speech.
As far as Roseanne calling that lady planet of the apes, I’d say only a liar would say there’s not a resemblance. It was tasteless to say but also accurate.
I’m old enough to remember when comedians could be tasteless without repercussions.
Bill Mayer said he was a “house nigger” on his show and his show didn’t get cancelled. This wasn’t too long ago.
Weed is legal now, why is everyone so uptight?

I agree that the outrage is ridiculous. Comedians should generally get a pass, unless it's a flat out brutal attack on a race. However I still don't agree with it being an attack on free speech.
Corporate representation has always been a thing, this is nothing that just started recently with this current super SJW culture. Charlie Sheen got fired from CBS for saying "jew kike", dude from Grey's Anatomy, which is also on ABC got fired for homophobic slurs, those are just off the top of my head, I know there's a lot more.
Roseanne's boss also happened to be a black woman. It's reckless as fuck to compare a black woman to an ape when the person that signs your checks also happens to be a black woman.
Bill Maher also works for HBO, not ABC, two different corporate entities. HBO didn't care, ABC did. HBO is a station that also shows unedited content, nudity, cussing etc. ABC is a family network on regular over the air TV owned by the most family oriented corporation there is in Disney. Two different corporations will have different standards as far as how they want their corporation represented. HBO has been a champion of comedians for decades, was the first network that started to air hour long comedy specials, obviously they would give a comedian more leniency.
The thing is Roseanne still has her free speech, she never lost it. She can go on twitter right now and say whatever the fuck she wants, but that doesn't mean ABC has to have her as a representative.

Which is hella retarded considering he took the knee outta respect for those who served....I mean that shit actually speaks volumes to the type of man he is. I hope he gets caked out on his lawsuit.
Fucc that bitch (Jarrett) though. All these sjws obviously have no idea how many black lives she destroyed in Chicago- she doesn't even deserve to be compared to a monkey cuz a monkey hasn't destroyed any black lives.
