  3. Maybe I’m a heartless bastard, but I have absolutely no interest in Kramer’s redemption arc. While I have no active ill will towards him, I don’t need him returning from the shadows after a couple of decades to wave the flag of his childhood trauma. Sorry that happened to you. Take your millions of dollars, go to therapy, and kindly fuck off.

  4. Dang I hope admitting it is the first step to him helping himself.

  5. HE’S A N*****!!!

    sorry i was raped thats why i said a racial slur

    What a weird excuse

  7. That’s a difficult struggle, and I sympathize. However, a reason is not an excuse for bad behavior.

  9. If the world is okay with people like Travis Scott and RKelly continuing on with their careers, I think we have room for Kramer to come back after all this time.

  11. That surely couldn’t have been easy on him, especially at a time when it wasn’t well-received to have these conversations in the first place. He only learned the truth when he was in his mid or late 30s; that was more than long enough to have a lasting impact on a person.

  12. There is no excuse for his racist white supremacy outburst. People with anger issues don’t immediately jump to racism to let off steam. He did because he’s a racist.

  13. A lot of people can relate to his self-sabotage, and anger, obviously. Just look at the newsfeed.
    And he needs to change. Period.

  14. What a sad story 😢😢😢, please be kind, you don’t know people’s struggles 😞

  15. Cancel culture made Al Franken quit being a senator over false accusations of sexual harassment with zero evidence, then elected a proud rapist to president…

  16. To be fair I wouldn’t have gone to see him before his “incident”

  17. Oh boohoo, the racist is sad he isn’t famous anymore.

    “B-b-but, I don’t FEEL LIKE being held accountable for my CONSCIOUS CHOICES!” 🙄

  18. So if he would’ve just dropped a couple of N bombs then sure I would be like alright whatever but NOPE. He talked about hanging us from trees IN 2006 with hard R. Naw my dude, I’m sorry you went through stuff but actions have consequences.

  19. Umm… k? Dude you said the n word with a hard r on stage and on camera for a good couple of minutes. Dude just wasn’t funny enough to make a comeback. also, he still makes bank from seinfeld reruns. who gives a fuck about a rich celeb crying for attention?

  21. Ok. I hope he reveals the sad story behind his racism next.

  25. I was abandoned by my mom and have tons of anger from feeling unwanted so I understand this dude so much. I feel hated and think I look ugly to women because of it

  26. Lots of people have endured horrible trauma and don’t call people N****r and threaten to hang them from trees. I hope he gets the help he needs but fuck this guy and his comedy.

  27. Why do I keep seeing so any posts about Michael Richards – I feel like I’ve seen 1 each week for the past month.

  28. The comments are literally 50/50 “fuck him he shouldn’t have said that” and “it’s about time we let him back in.” Pretty crazy

  29. Sounds like someone got a new publicist. Gotta bury that racism story somehow.

  30. His apology was genuine. I hope he can forgive himself one day. We make mistakes.
