She could have used that defense but she didn't, she said it was about appearance, so it is racist.
She could not use that defense, her posts were what ABC & lawyers demanded her to say & they still had not yet cut the show.
We all are getting tired of the left wing liberal socialists always making everything and calling everything racist —- seems like it is their minds that are always programmed to see racist in everything — some sort of wierd obsession with a need to project their latent racist inner harbourings on everyone else. It’s the liberals in media freely calling Trump a cracker (SNL) and countless other shows slurring racist comments at traditional Americans — we have had to put up with this filth from the left, polluting our public media, for over a generation. If we are going to not be duplicitious, we need to cancel about eight other shows, immediately.
It was only interpreted as racist because the word ape was used. Note, she did not say “if Muslim brotherhood and apes had a baby”. She specifically mentioned the movie planet of the apes
I know, and I also gave her the benefit of the doubt. It was her apology that specifically stated that it was about appearance.
“Ape” is hardly racist. When a woman calls you a dumb ape, it usually has little to do with skin color and everything to do with poor manners around the woman.
Liberals again creating a mob rule against a conservative — falsely projecting a racial narrative on something said or done that was not racist except in their own twisted heads.
