    Ugh I’m tired of hearing that they aren’t equivalent. No shit.  But they are both bad, one worse than the other for sure. And Rosannes show was canceled already what more do you want? You can’t ignore Samatha Bees stupidity just because Barr was stupider 
    I agree. I haven’t seen anyone say they are the same. No one was saying it was equal. Just that there seems to be a difference in how people respond. And the responses pretty much support that claim, no one seems to care and defend it by saying Tosanne was worse. I have little doubt if Ivanka said it about Bee the response would be muxhblarger.

    Sorry Brian, I couldn’t find the Pee Wee thread. But do you really want to know what he’s doing right now? I don’t.

    Then why are we here talking about it on the Roseanne Barr is a racist thread?

    If people want to start a thread about Bee, they should go right ahead. The obvious purpose of bringing up Bee in this thread was to try and make the two equivalent. And when someone tries to make a comparison that stupid they sure as hell should be called out on it.

    Anyways, I agree with this tweet.

    It is so fucking hilarious that the repubes are seeking respect and dignity of the office. Geeze, anyone remember Rushbo denigrating a 12 year old child of the White House when he had an audience of 20 million listeners? Remember that? It’s hilarious that some cringe walking the path covered in broken glass. Waaaaaa. Bunch of snow flakes.

    So since it appears people on AMT have lost their collective minds due to trump overload... let me run it down for you:

    1) you can be upset/outraged whatever you want to call it about Rosanne and believe it was a racist tweet and...
    2) still think Samantha Bee using the c-word on TBS in reference to another woman is horrible and....
    3) think it was terrible when Rush and others attacked a young Chelsea Clinton in horrible ways and...
    4) think that the US needs gun control.

    I would have thought it was obvious but since everyone is deflecting maybe it wasn’t.

    And  yes there are such things as cultural differences, that's why the word cunt as always been a very offensive word to me and a hell of a lot of people living here in the states. 
    His tweet is apples and oranges.
