    I can wipe Ovi off my avi... that would be a relief. I may just use Laughing Frank from now on though.

    so the tv show the Connors aired this week without Roseanne Barr, who was booted off for racist comments and then the show took a break, change it's named and killed her off. how did they do it ... ?

    opioides overdose. they made it in the story she was addicted to opioides after an injury, which the real Roseanne Barr had. A tv neighbor gave her character some pills bc the tv character Barr couldn't afford them and she died from an overdose. then the tv character said she didn't know the tv Roseanne was hooked on them. the real Roseanne is pissed her character went out that way ! pretty shitty to do that to the show creator. wow.

    The whole thing was crappy to begin with not being a racist but pull up a picture of Valerie Jarrett and then pull up pictures from the Planet of the Apes especially the ones from the 2001 movie with Helena Bonham Carter and you can see how the comment may not have been racist at all.

    Eh. Fuck Roseanne, she's a garbage human being whatever her intent with that particular tweet may have been. No sympathy.

    she is a POS U Dog, but it was her show, her idea and she had creative control and ABC flexed their muscles and booted her anyways. That's not how it should've went down. This is still America.

    This is still America... what does that even mean? The way Roseanne was treated is VERY American. There is nothing moral or majestic about this country or the people who “founded” it. It was built on blood, bones, racism, rape, lies and general fuckery. THAT is America.

    It's 1000000% how it should've went down. ABC is the network, they decide what shows they wish to air. She got to keep the rights to her character and Casey-Werner got to keep the rest. The fact that a show that had huge ratings was canceled and not one of the other gazillion channels around wanted to touch it says it all. That shit's as American as it gets.

    you answered your own question. you knew what it meant and answered. your use of the term "general fuckery" is fantastic and what i meant about roseanne getting booted off her own show.

    Huh?

    I'm the least PC person there is....but referring to a human as a monkey or ape in any way always has been, and always will be racist.

    No its only racist because she is black if you refer to a white person as an ape or monkey nobody plays the racist card.

    Because whites don't have a centuries-old history of being compared to primates.

    C'mon, Jean.

    they also dont have a centuries old history of crying racism every time something doesn't go their way or someone hurts their feelings

    1) Whites have - for centuries - been the dominant race and have been the beneficiary of rules, laws, and societal norms
    2) Whites are now crying like bitches because the playing field is being leveled. Not tilted against them, but simply evened. "When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
