That ape comparison shit is pretty much indefensible. It is defensible because the context of her tweet is unknown. People (like the majority of people in this thread) are jumping to conclusions that her tweet was indented to insult her for being black (or part black ?? ). Does anybody remember when the left made fun of George W. Bush for literally looking like a monkey? This is why I despise this mob mentality. People knee jerk to conclusions without thinking things through. Nothing new, she's been loopy for most of her career. She doesn't know if she's left, right or Jesus. She's a Green Party member (which is left wing socialism... like Grandma Jill Stein. Which honestly I respect these people WAY more than I do than the modern Democrats. I may disagree with most of their views, but at least they aren't lynch mob retards. These people are open minded and will politely debate their beliefs). She's a moderate left leaning Jewish woman. And now she's getting slowly red-pilled.

How does Bush look like a monkey? He looks more like a coke-addled Appalachian boy.

Nah couldn't be fucked, and it's got nothing to do with anything here.
I'll stand by my first post as it actually relates to 40oz's question: How does likening a black woman to an ape have anything to do with the NFL issue?
Sorry to have triggered the racists and semi-racists in this thread, but ay we know where y'all stand now.

Take two seconds to google it.If you want to be a little more topical Wanda Sykes called Trump an orangutan just a little while ago and then quits Rosanne immediately after her tweet. Apes are their word, dammit.

If I'm understanding your question right, youre asking how taking a knee and posting racist shit on twitter are alike.
Theyre not. Theyre polarized views where one side says criticizing or making a joke at ones expense on the basis of race is normal, and another that says racism is a serious problem that shouldn't be taken lightly. The only thing they have in common is that they're both public statements in relation to race.
In this particular circumstance, I think I hold opposite views to Doomkid. I think Roseanne making that tweet was exactly the right thing to do. Because if she didn't, shed still have her career and her racist views. And if you take a knee during the national anthem, then you deserve to lose all the fans who think you hate America.
I used to think that taking a knee was unpatriotic and shouldn't be allowed but I realized I'd much rather people be honest about who they really are than pretend to have no place to stand about the things that are clearly important to them.
Roseanne is pretty indefensible for this IMO and I think some of you are pretty fucking ridiculous for saying that this is ok because the left does it so much more. Like glenzinho, I'm better off knowing where you stand than pretending were all on the same page about everything.

Fuck your politics you boring cunt. You are a crime against humanity for being fucking boring. #triggered Oh my, an off color joke...on TWITTER!!?? That leaves only one recourse, destroy her career. Refuse all apologies. Refuse the explanation that she thought this chick was white (because saying racist things about whitey is still OK). Wipe out her past, take the old show off syndication. In fact, fuel up the nearest rocket and fire her off to an uninhabited asteroid where her evil, vile science-fictional ape comparisons will no longer murder the precious innocence of black people everywhere. That's what we do in 2018, we rule by mob mentality, crucify those in an instant over words, and erase them from the annals of history. I don't know how I missed this gold nugget. I underestimate your wit, justince.

I'm still not sure what this is about... and skimming through this thread confirms I don't need to know what it's about and go to bed, good night everyone!

I have nothing to add to this hot garbage fire except a simple reminder that ProBoards will probably not enjoy some of the more... "Colourful"... Characters and language displayed here.
In fact, isn't there a specific rule in place because of this? Correct me if I'm wrong but this aint fucking /pol, I'm sure posting racial slurs ain't wise here (if not for your sake then for the sake of every fucker else here).

We need to relocate this place to an independent and more permanent platform... the more I think of it.. and sorry for such a fence sitting post but blue checkmark Twitter outrage culture frustrates the hell out of me.. even if the person they go after is out of line the mob mentality and seeing people lusting and rejoicing for retribution is sickening.

I agree with that, but it's Roseanne in question here. Fucking Roseanne, the cunt who "wins" her arguments by literally shouting down anyone else who doesn't share her views until they fall into submission, while in "character" and in real life. I feel the universe has become slightly more balanced after this. The Twitter cunts will get theirs eventually one way or another, don't you worry.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this aint fucking /pol, I'm sure posting racial slurs ain't wise here (if not for your sake then for the sake of every fucker else here). Where I'd draw the line is when people start calling each other Nepithet, Kepithet or Jepithet. This hasn't happened*. No, this isn't /pol, but you're all adults who don't need trigger warnings; moderate yourselves. If you don't like an opinion then state why you don't. If you don't like an attitude then ditto.
Debate is stronger than censorship. This is a community and communities should find their own spirit level. I'm sure that you are all more than capable.
*save for when Glen called Technician a Klansman, which we don't count because HE'S LITERALLY CISHET WHITE HITLER

I just want to be absolutely clear here: I am not stating nor have stated Roseanne is a racist or not a racist, simply that she is a cunt. Technician on the other hand straddles that racism line uncomfortably for me, not just in this thread but elsewhere. Klanny may or may not have been unfortunate wording on my part, but fuck the cunt. If his political leanings lead him to use such poor wordings against the political figures he detests, find some different words.

I feel like I should go further: this is called a forum, it's a place for meeting and debate. If you want a safe space, if you want some pissant hypocritical cuck to walk behind you and wipe your fucking arse for you, then go to doomworld. They have gloves for this shit. Go to the kindergarten, go get fucking essel to babysit your lame ass and suck your cock when you are sad and call you a good boy. You might be happier there. Come back to us when you have grown the fuck up. Alternatively, you can walk here, in the gray spaces. Yes, you will find people you don't like - you'll even find people don't agree with. You might find a nazi, or an Israeli jew, or a gangbanger, or someone who had their balls cut off and now can only piss by jamming a plastic straw up his urethra. Left wing, right wing, whatever: these are the people that you will walk past on the street, meet in the pub, people who you will one day have to interact with in real life and there will be no fuckin' moderator to save your ass. It's down to you. Dealing with shit you don't like is a fucking life skill and, trigger warning, it will make you a better person in the long run.
If you want to shred each other, go at it. Just try not to embarrass yourselves.

I'm more concerned about what upper management might do over what some pissant who comes in to get offended thinks.
If some "outsider" (I'll say that for my lack of vocabulary dictates it) from ProBoards comes onto here and sees some guys yelling nigger and klansman they're most likely going to be less than impressed and seeing as though they're the big boy in town they might express said disgust in certain administrative ways.
If this was a regular forum I really wouldn't care, but because this is run through the ProBoards service it's pretty spooky to think about the wrong guy reading this and nuking it all.
Although that fear could be completely unfounded and wrong (and if it is please tell me so I can stop giving a shit).

If anything, echoing the fear will just make it more likely to be realized and the only "outsiders" to worry about here are the guests that are lurking.

Well, if it came down to that then I suppose we'd sacrifice the offenders on the altar of saving our own arses. I'd weep for my principles for about three seconds, but then I'd feel ok about it.
I agree that we need our own webspace. It has been discussed before: it's the old debate between renting a place and buying one.

I like how thanks to Twitter the entire internet can whiteknight for any random stranger over a bad joke. This doesn't fucking concern you! This isn't a comment on ALL black people ever to have existed. Roseanne's remark was clearly a reference to Kim Hunter's character Zira in the original Planet of the Apes, in the right makeup I can see the resemblance. It was directed at ONE person. There was no other connotation other than appearance. You think a veteran of TV and comedy would call a black person an APE in this day and age? Really? It was a BAD joke. Look at this Jarrett chick, she could pass for an number of races, but 'black' is pretty far down the list. People had to look up her lineage THEN get offended. It's total bullshit. Roseanne maybe a lot of thing, but I don't think she's that fucking stupid. Does she deserve all this crap from a bunch of virtue signaling fucktards (who NEVER said anything racist; in jest or otherwise in their ENTIRE lives) ready to crucify someone else over a joke?

I don't know about such things but I'll put my money where my mouth is if it's reasonable. A bunch of us throwing in together of course, not me on my pat.

Use a racial slur one time -> everyone flips out. Use a sexist slur a couple dozen times -> A-OK.
Whichever team puts women below any other group and claims to have the moral highground, I'll bat for the other one.
