Literally any action can be determined to be harmful by others, I'm not sure how that can be your basis for determining the morality of an action especially with how laughably ridiculous SJW types are these days. Just because someone decides to get offended doesn't mean that you've done something legitimately offensive nor that you've done anything morally wrong.
We are not talking about any action. We are talking about a specific action — comparing black people to monkeys despite the historical context of such comparisons. This isn’t about generically insulting someone who happens to be black. It is a specific type of insult, and if that’s the insult one wants to go with then the “intent” better be crystal clear. Otherwise, come up with a different insult. It shouldn’t be that hard.
I was talking about actions in general, but even in that specific example, no matter what some short sighted people have said, it's not an inherently racist thing. My points were more about how ANYONE can claim to be offended about anything so you can't base if something was wrong to say off of how it was received. Moreover, if you really want to move on and create a better society, you have to stop having different rules for different people.
A better society should entail people recognizing that racism hasn’t gone away, and being civil enough to not throw around insults that can be easily interpreted as racially motivated by the target.
And racism won't go away till after you stop making different rules for different people based on the color of their skin.....
“Don’t throw around insults that can be easily interpreted as racially motivated by the target” is the “rule” I’m advocating for. Apply it to everyone.
i did not realize your willingness to stand up and defend the anthem against those who disrespect it had a shelf-life. i guess your willingness to make excuses for racist comments supersedes your patriotism. you have post after post saying nfl players are disrespectful for taking a knee. it seems like you really despise those sons of b****es. but here you are with post after post defending and deflecting for someone who made a mockery of our glorious anthem. we also have a president who said sons of b****es who dont stand during the anthem might need to be deported, but champions someone who made a mockery of the anthem in public.
She's a an out of control loser. I never realized that her show came back until a few Bill Maher episodes ago, but is this **** for real:
Angry, maybe. But what happened today cannot have surprised any of them if they are aware of Roseanne Bar's behavior pattern. Her comment was more than mean-spirited and unfunny. Her comment is racist. It's unacceptable because of the long history of African Americans being portrayed as monkeys by racists.
Roseanne is canceled which means Cobra Kai will be the #1 rated show, hahahahaah!!! Cobra Kai never dies!!! Strike first strike hard no mercy!!!
And that show was killing in the ratings and renewed for s second season within days. Damn so stupid of Roseanne!!
I am not defending Roseanne, but I had no idea how many celebrities had called trump an orangutan. I guess I dont follow liberals as well as I think I do. If you were a monkey, which type would best describe yourself? I would choose chimpanzee because that rhymes with trumpanzee.
She’s a socialist. She hates Israel. She dresses up as Hitler. This lady is a Nazi. ABC gave her a contract and ignored all the other things. Mention “Muslim brotherhood”? Nope, that’ll get you fired.
