She has had a long time perfecting her craft. Remember back when idiots made fun of her looks (when she was a tween ferchrissakes!!!) and she couldn’t respond? She’s been storing all that up for deployment at just the right time.

Chelsea is a master of the unfailingly polite “fuck you.” She’s kind of my hero.
I think they naively or optimistically underestimated Roseanne’s vitriol.
I initially felt bad for all the people on that show who also lost their jobs because of this, but you actually have a good point. Her racist, hateful rants aren’t anything new and can’t possibly have been a surprise to anyone who hitched their wagon to the show. You’ve helped me come around to your way of thinking on…
I’m not sure whether to laugh or scream at Roseanne’s apology for what she said about Valerie Jarrett. Saying Valerie is the child of the Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes was not a fucking joke about her looks. It was an intentional invocation of the racist idea that black and brown folks are more ape than…
If John Goodman joins Twitter just to post a “Bye Bitch” message, I will give him one more chance.
My guess is that they were gambling hardcore on the nostalgia of the thing, cos that’s kinda big at the moment. That that nostalgia smell would just override the smell of the white supremacist trash. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Every last cast member knew what they signing up for when they hitched their wagons to a vile, racist, pig. Now they’re forever tainted with the stench of Rosanne. They all got what they deserved.
Well they wanted a show that portrayed trump supporters, and they sure as hell got that! Lol.
Babe, the show is called Roseanne.
I’m 100% on board with cancelling the show, but I just don’t understand why ABC had to go and give her a platform to begin with. Her Twitter has been filled with hate for a long time and by ABC giving Barr her sitcom back, it emboldened her to be more vitriolic. And before everyone responds to me, money cannot the…
STFU Sara. Sorry if it never occurred to you that it was only a matter of time before your racist boss got fired for being a racist and caused you to lose your job too. Hope you invested your paycheck from the first season.
ABC just woke up and discovered Roseanne Barr is a raging racist IRL, on her show, and on Twitter, and cancelled her…
In case you need further proof that the United States government doesn’t give a shit about the people of Puerto Rico…
The party of “Fuck Your Feelings” got their feelings fucked with.
I’m just baffled that anyone expected anything different from her. For at least the past few years (since Colbert), comedians have been pretty harsh, and her standup is fairly x-rated; she actually toned the “dirtiness” level back for them.
Let’s be honest, they hate Wolf because of her “you’ve all benefitted” joke. It was the obvious, blatant truth. They didn’t want to hear that they’re making big bucks off of human suffering and dragging us down by just soft-balling the administration on everything they’ve done instead of calling them out.
I died laughing, but then again I have a sense of humor.
Swear to god, on Monday the entire press corps is gonna stand up and applaud when Sanders walks into the briefing room and I’m gonna barf.
