It’s like if he kept going after, “I ain’t got to beg for it,” you’d have to call the cops.
What’s worse is she’s comparing being accused of drugging and raping people to the backlash she received after that awful sketch she wrote for Ted Danson to wear blackface at an NAACP event where she was the honoree. She’s standing up for accused rapist because over twenty years ago, her jokes didn’t land.

I wrote this a little earlier in the comments, but this is part of the…
I just came to another conclusion earlier today. The other problem with a U.S. brand of whiteness means denying one’s European ethnicity.
