The comparison only works if you ignore all context
- Richards' remarks were 12 years ago now
- Roseanne's past racist comments also didn't get her show pulled
- He's not the main character nor is the show named after him
- his comments came several years after it ended; Roseanne's were during her show's run
- Roseanne's show is more political by its nature than Seinfeld; her comments reflect on the show and its character in a way that Michael Richards' comments aren't really associated with Cosmo Kramer.

Is anyone doing anything about Spike Lee saying he gives interracial couples visual daggers?

Black people aren't able to be racist.

As an Asian, I would disagree.

I remember during that evergreen college riot they were saying Asians were part of white supremacy.

Roseanne will eventually go back up. They are just ducking the heat right now. And I do hope it goes back up. Roseanne Barr is a lunatic, but the original run of the show was ground-breaking for its time and covered a lot of social topics that shows wouldn't touch. It was also the work of numerous people and they shouldn't have their royalties from the show or their artistic contributions deleted because Barr is a whackjob.

I ultimately feel the same way about the Cosby Show.

as someone who grew up around that area, greeners (students of evergreen college), are generally fucking stupid.

that having been said, i do think it's important to acknowledge the difference between the oppressive racism against black people in this country, and the treatment asians are given. model minority is a very different beast in of itself.

Im making a point that in general he has never dealt from any backlash for the racist or harmful shit he has spewed. Not like he got amped and apologized later. He will comfortably say racist and bigoted things and stand by them. He even could have gotten an elderly couple killed when he posted the address of Zimmerman which wasnt his.

And Asians get fucked under affirmative action, and we're treated worse than Whites. We may as well join the "white supremacy" aka anyone to the right of Stalin.

No, I realize that, but at the same time some credit should be given to Asians for succeeding in America.

What backlash do you wish for him to receive?
