I mean, it happened so long ago and they're only getting upset about it now? Why are people acting like it happened yesterday? I know what he did was wrong, but back then it was more acceptable than it is now.

Also, why is it that no one is getting upset at Eddie Murphy who did whiteface on SNL back in the '80s? Wasn't that also offensive? I thought it was offensive, but I still like him.

Are people finally getting mad at him for that?

A bunch of internet trolls have been trying to make that old blackface thing stick to him for years. >_>

Theyre not

Theyre more so getting off on having it go viral and having people retweet/like their posts about it.

"Average Joe" is a trolling term since it's completely an opinion. "Overachieving" is also an opinion. - SBAllen (Hellhole: 52458377)
