    I guess, unscientifically, you're free to have whatever opinion you choose. But if this board is any indication, there are people on the right that legitimately  believed it towards figures on the left as well

    Who, that is "mainstream", actually believes Trump is a Nazi? I mean, there was that whole rally of actual Nazis that overlapped some with his support, where  he didn't exactly distance himself from it. But he just came off as tone deaf, per usual, but not an actual Nazi himself. 

    Let's just start here, shall we?

    Did he say that while affiliated with any news group? I thought you meant "mainstream media" or whatever you kids are calling it these days. Maybe there are more people spouting off on Twitter than I thought. Either way, it's clear a phrase thrown around by both sides. 

  • Gotta love the browns political board. Dark skinned lady gets called an ape and our posters rush to defend it. 

  • Who, exactly, defended it?

  • And she's not dark skinned fwiw.

    Not you man, don't worry. You're above that.

    And no, no one on here has outright said "this is fine." I'm inferring some. Not ideally, I get it. But I've been reading Sheet on here long enough. Feel free to disagree with that conclusion if you'd like.

    Darker than us, which is basically the point. 

  • shows over fgts. its gettin ugly between the cast and roseanne.

    so yeah, "roseanne barr" will go to fox, but its gonna be fox news where she's going to be a commentator, like ted nugent. another nobody now that nobody cares about. 

    or maybe they do some utterly ghoulish recast where her husband is black and they have bi racial children. i would prob waych an episode or two of that just for the hot mess.

  • Roseanne made her bed and now she has to lie in it. I don't feel sorry for her. No one should. You'd think by now people would know better than to open their stupid mouths and embarrass the people who pay the bills but it still keeps happening.

    So anyone darker than white is protected from all mockery? Or only animal based insults? Nah. Everyone can get fu¢ked. I don't believe in protecting anyone's feelings.

    You're free to insult who you want, and you're free to deal with the consequences. 

    No, it's clearly not all mockery. Calling a black person an ape has a history of being treated like a subhuman behind it. There's more weight to it. It's not the same as calling Bush a monkey cuz you think he's stupid or looks funny. Though I guess that's just my opinion, but also seems to be the opinion of please type of other people as well.

    Nah no one will ever be equal if one group of people has to be treated with kid gloves like special children.

    I think calling a black person a monkey is very clearly different. Again, because of the history there, that we're still digging out from. People legitimately calling black people apes because they were slaves and seen as subhuman. The entire race. Not just someone you think is dumb of oafish. 

    You can call it special treatment, I call it giving weight to past history. One day, sure, but I don't think we're there. 

  • So at what point are black people going to collectively decide that they're allowed to be over the past? There's a lot of bad Sheet in human history. A lot of groups that have fared poorly at the hands of some other group. Most of them have managed to overcome.

    theres the real monkey. he just cant stay out of anything. i hope thats his one and only tweet about this. i would hope u trump supporters are smart enough to understand his re election was already going to be difficult. but allow them to hang roseann barr around his neck and that settles that

  • See here folks..

    Free speech has consequences. Yes you can say whatever you want in this country, but there is consequences if warranted.

    The NFL is exercising it's right to stop the anthem protests, just like ABC has the right to cancel a show because it's star made some insensitive comments.

    I don't know why you are spewing your "yadda yadda liberal left" nonsense.. If Roseanne's dumb a$$ didn't tweet this, she would still have a show and her co-stars wouldn't be pissed off at her for taking away their paychecks..
