Calling a black person an ape IS racism.

What was said about trump was not racist in any shape or form.




What if Roseanne had said she looked like a bear? How about a polar bear?


/e In case you didn't know...we are ALL descended from apes. So calling someone an ape isn't racist. It's insulting, but not racist.

Only works if you assume she's totally unaware of the historical connotations behind comparing black people to apes. So if you are going to posit that Roseanne is so socially inept, unaware, and too stupid to draw basic conclusions about language, so she can't be held accountable, then go ahead.

Blah, blah blah. :/

So I guess Darwin was racist too? We should probably include all anthropologists as well.

Oh, I forgot from your conversation with thesnipa that you don't actually know what the word connotation means.

Ah now I understand why ABC cancelled a show with such awesome ratings.... over a joke.

Channing Dungey (born 1969)[1] is an American television executive who in 2016 became the first African-American president of ABC Entertainment Group. This also makes her the first black president of a major broadcast TV network.[2] She was hired as president on February 17, 2016, replacing Paul Lee.


This is why the show got cancelled. This is the racist person.

Wasn't an insult. It was a statement of fact. You clearly don't know what that word means, because if you did you wouldn't have responded to my post the way you did.
