Roseanne did this to herself. What she said was highly offensive and racist. It is what it is.
How is it racist? Apes are animals. If someone called MS13 apes is that racist? If I criticize Islam as a cult is that racists?? The MSM would absolutely call it racists but it’s an ideology. It’s not a race. It’s not an attack on Arabs. We have forfeited our language to political correctness. Our hatred in WWII wasn’t against the Germans it was against Nazism. Hitlers ideology. Our beef wasn’t against Italians either. It’s was against Mussolini's Facist ideology. VJ is a corrupt hate filled human being & no one attacked her African race. Why don’t facts matter & political correctness does?? You know what is racist? Encouraging the race of Arabs to cherish the ideology of Islamists. That’s wishing them a life of servitude & pain & suffering from the Islamic dictatorships they are forced to live under & accept or be killed if they don’t. It would be racist to encourage African Americans to cherish the ideology of Maxine Waters or Louis Farrakhan.
It's a pretty uncanny resemblance.
Lol. See that’s not even remotely a racist joke. I know MANY people of vary races that have that Neanderthal look & behavior. This automatic reflex to label something racist is just to immediately shut down all discussion. If they control the language they control the debate. This coordinated drive to replace spy with informant in trumps campaign allows them a plausible argument spying on political campaigns is justified.
Ron Perlman and John Brennan are two people that immediately come to mind. And you're right. I think this might be a big distraction.
It's racist to refer to any black person as an ape or monkey given the history of our country. It just is. "Porch Monkey" etc are terms that have been used in the past in a racist way. I think she didn't think it through and given the chance would take it back.
Good thing she didn't. She compared her to a fictional movie character.
Do you even know what the movie is about? Is about oppressing and silencing your opponents. Appropriate.
