It’s not the same when the network decides and not the president. Racist comments VS comedic monolog
It’s not the same and nobody likes you, Rosanne
Do another Rap video, Roseanne, that should help.
They didn’t get rid of the show, just you.
One compared the Obama’s to monkeys, the other told the truth. Not the same.
No double standard there Roseanne. You’re a terrible hateful person. That’s why you got blacklisted
The problem was the FCC getting involved. This would’ve been fine if popular outrage had pushed Kimmel off the air
Regular people were mad that the government pressured ABC to take action against Kimmel. Rosanne just said a bunch of stuff regular people are fed up with, so ABC got rid of her. Why is this too complicated for some people?
Kimmel was fired for saying the truth.
Roseanne was fired for saying racist lies.
These are not the same
The fact Roseanne is equating telling the truth with saying conspiratorial fabrications about minorities is massively racist
Nah, she ruined her whole life being a jerk.
Accurately pointing out that maga grifters were using a murder to point fingers isn’t the same as comparing a specific woman’s looks to a primate in one of the oldest and most disgusting racial “jokes” these bigots love to tell but hate to be accountable for.
I don’t remember the US government threatening to cancel broadcasting licenses unless Rosanne was fired…
Wasn’t this woman racist? Apples and Broccoli!
Poor Roseanne, they ruined her life.
Now she’s forced to live out her days on her palatial Hawaiian Macadamia nut plantation like some sort of peasant.
No federal government official coordinated your departure.
Wait…I thought it was all an Ambien induced episode that doesn’t represent her real beliefs?
I must’ve forgotten when the president and FCC got involved to get Rosanne fired. Because that’s the only way these two situations would be comparable.
Jimmy didn’t say anything racist FFS she’s a moron
There’s a big difference between what happened to Jimmy and what she did to herself.
Cancel culture is when the *public* is done with you because of something you did or said, and the *network* fires you for it. That was the case with Roseanne.
In Jimmy’s case, the *President* orchestrated his removal through political and corporate pressure, and intends to continue. This is a violation of the First Amendment because the *government* (not a citizen) tried to silence Kimmel.
Barr was Canceled by ABC. Jimmy was canceled by the FCC and president.
Btw Trump was president when Barr got fired.
Personal Responsibility.
Something Roseanne Barr has never learned.
*”I got my whole life ruined”*
Instead of *”I ruined my whole life”*….
So… In her mind either you should be able to say hateful shit with no repercussions OR it must be someone else’s fault.
Calling a black person an ape vs talking about what is literally happening in your country. Yeah totally an apples to apples comparison… go away racist auntie.
I’m literally shocked of how ignorant some people are when they don’t seem able to distinguish between a direct threat from a goverment to a company firing you because you went on a racist rant at three in the morning.
It’s blatant ignorance and is quite scary because it shows how little knowledge many people have when it comes to basic rights.
Jimmy said “MAGA is trying to gain political points”
Roseanne said a black woman looked like a monkey.
Jimmy was removed because broadcasters who need Brendan Carr to remove anti-monopoly laws so they can make $6 billion by becoming too powerful responded within 24 hours to a government officials suggestion of censorship, giving Carr credit in a publically released written statement naming Carr. 1st Amendment protects Jimmy from government interference.
Roseanne was fired because CBS responded to advertisers responding to viewers with no government interference. Consequences.
She doesn’t understand that the decision was ABC’s and the president didn’t get the FCC to lean on ABC to fire her.
Oh yeah, Trump was the president when she got fired in 2018.
Is there a single person who actually believes there’s a double standard here?
Roseanne, you said something quite racist.
Jimmy Kimmel did not…
Let’s bring that back into the light
Is there a difference between saying some fucked-up racist shit and telling the truth in a poorly worded comment that will be misrepresented by disingenuous right-wingers?
It’s so hard to tell.
Lmao nah. Fuck Rosanne
Yes I clearly remember the White House threatening to take away abc broadcasting license unless Roseanne get canceled. Right that is clearly what happened!! /s
Dear Roseanne: Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not going to happen.
Rosanne said racist hate speech. There is 0 double standard.
She’s comparing apples and rancid oranges
Kimmel was removed from the airwaves because of illegal government overreach. Roseanne was fired from her job because of a decision made by a private company due to outcries from the public, but not as a result of government overreach. She can kick rocks.
No dear. You managed that all by yourself.
Hmm. Kimmel mocked the Magas who try to weaponize a tragedy while Barr praised Hitler. No double standard, just human fucking decency.
Hmm…let’s see. Roseanne went full racist comparing a black woman to an ape, went crazy about Muslims (regardless if their religion is toxic), and just went racist in general.
Kimmel only stated facts about how MAGA was desperately trying to characterize the killer as anything but one of them. He also highlighted how much Trump didn’t seem to care as he directed the conversation to the gaudy ballroom redesign of the white house.
Yeah because Roseanne compared a black woman to planet of the apes. These people think we will forget their words.
Two Problems… 1. millions of people didn’t cancel their Disney subscriptions when you were shown the door 2. It wasn’t the federal government that coerced abc to get rid of you, they did that on their own.
are people dumb or just fundamentally dishonest in their arguments?
a few differences Roseanne…. 1 – you went of racist tirades and spewed hate, Jimmy said “MAGA is trying to paint the killer as anything but one of their own”
2 – this is the big one, so listen up dummy (I’m talking directly to Ms Barr obviously) – you got kicked off a show in the way the free market dreams of. Business owners and decisions makers didn’t want you.
Kimmy got kicked off because the FCC and the PRESIDENT asserted political pressure and threats
See, the difference is Rosanne Barr deserved it.
Hope that clears it up.
What Jimmy said was not remotely worthy of being canned. If I recall Barr said some undeniably racist shit. Plus I gather she had gone pretty coocoo and I could imagine no one wanted to work with her.
It is disingenuous to not acknowledge the FCC/literal President blatant involvement in this situation. It is different.
One is a bigot and the other speculated on a shooting suspects political party.
lol also all of her colleagues and costars were like, “we don’t agree with your statements and don’t want to work with you”
