When?

Is she still hot tho?

Seriously guys, shes not racist, it was all just a misunderstanding

now, here she is on Alex jones to prove that

Daaaan

Holy shit I would not have thought that was Roseanne

She looks completely different

ewwww

I suspect she's had mental issues for a while now, even before the controversy. Something about her speech patterns and body movements suggest heavy medications.

When she was younger and in the prime of her career, she was sharp and could give a good roast. She sounds so slow now, like someone's drunk aunt slurring words.

When?

Her show in the 90s was very liberal. Her character created an impromptu walkout in her job due to unreasonable demands, there was a gay character who wasn't a stereotype, later there was a gay marriage episode, there was a huge controversy about showing Roseanne kissing another woman, there was an episode where the adults smoked pot, and there was even an episode where Roseanne was troubled about the idea that she might have internalized racism.

She's fallen pretty hard.

It makes me sad. I loved watching Roseanne growing up. I identified with the Connors way more than any other sitcom family.

All that stuff was still in the new relaunched show when she was on it.

Just because someone is right wing doesn't necessarily mean they're racist/homophobic.

But every person that is racist/homophobic is right wing

this is old roseanne

can you really see the hard core MAGA woman saying this

She used to be so liberal too. I guess age and probably feeling attacked by the left will do that to some people. Its a shame how far shes fallen, but maybe she thinks shell find success with the right wing?

False.

Some hardnosed left leaning people still hold racist, sexist, and bigoted views. They just tend to be more private about it unless there's a platform where they are allowed to vocalize it under the guise of progressivism. "No true Scotsman" doesn't fly. They are leftwing; just the toxic kind.

• Some left leaning race activists invoke many of the ideological hatemongering tactics they claim to oppose, excusing their version as virtuous.
• Some left leaning pundits claim they want to promote gender equality, while continuing to support policies that are clearly discrimination based on gender.
• Some left leaning feminists are TERFs.
• Some communities overwhelmingly associated with voting leftwing still have their own share of internal issues of people within those communities engaging in racism, sexism, and bigotry. For example: there's LGBTQ people who openly engage in all 3 while looking for partners despite voting for leftwing promotions of equality and acceptance.

If you really believe being leftwing should be synonymous with virtue, understand that has a requirement of acknowledging and calling out when members of said group act like hypocrites failing to practice what they preach. Sincerity and accountability get dumped when no one in the group checks for authenticity. People who want to promote leftwing beliefs as just and humane have incentive to check those within the group who conflict with that message. Quality requires quality control.

No

ka bump

This is somehow Tom Arnold's fault

Is her national anthem the best?

I'd love to see her sit down with someone "normal" for an interview to see exactly when the "switch" was flipped.

My assumption is that she was basically a product of the 90's, where you could say whatever and make fun of whoever (even though she really didn't) and as the "rules changed" she couldn't adapt.
