As a developer, thank you. These hypocrites piss me off.

Yeah, I mean...he insulted Jada more than he did any white folks voting for the Academy. The amount of laughter his jokes were prompting among all the white people was painful tbh. They were laughing at us, not with us.

I thought Kara Brown nailed it in the live blog when she said that the monologue seemed like jokes about white people for white people. Inviting that audience to chuckle about lynching?!? You’re going to make Chris Pine cry again!

Just like how women always carry the burden of fixing sexism and the patriarchy. We never seem to learn as a society - at least, not fast enough.

This fucking infuriates me because in Black History Month, Rock just casually dismissed black entertainers for whom racism in their industry was a very “real thing” they fought damn hard against- and long before the 60's.

In America...the politically correct thing to do is shut up and pretend we live in a post-racial world. You think you’re not being politcally corrct, Bret? You think you’re making some sort of noble stand against the majority of people? BULLSHIT! You’re being politically correct, you’re advocating the status quo, the…

Lol, labels don’t have “assigned photographers”......that’s not how photography works.

Victims can also perpetuate rape culture, and Gaga is a prime example of this: she still supports abusers, victim or not.

she worked with terry richardson again this month. she stays working with abusers and rapists. actions speak louder than words!

On the contrary. I think he’s like most male comics, and most experts in just one field. He thinks because he’s got a handle on one issue he can speak for them all. And most of the time that thoughtlessness is directed at women and gays. This isn’t his first time being tone deaf. He’s not perfect.

I’m black and I think that’s a really absurd way of thinking about the push for diversity. It’s incredibly limiting to think that each person should only fight for the success of and draw attention to the struggles of the group they belong to.

Well, aside from the fact that he seems to think only white and black people exist and that no other people of colour were worth mentioning. And then there’s that weird “not everything is sexism” moment he threw in at the end.

I found it annoying how disjointed his monologue seemed and how he only spoke about black people - as if black people are the only ones suffering from discrimination in Hollywood. The last time an Asian Woman won an academy award for acting was in 1957.

Am I the only one who seems to have been disappointed by his monologued? There were a couple huge missteps.

Every white person in that crowd had the same thoughts running through their head “Is it OK to laugh at this joke? Oh God, what if the camera cuts to me when I’m laughing at a joke I’m not supposed to laugh at?!”

it is true. I am glad he acknowledged the ridiculous aspect of boycotting the oscars when there are other things, including the racism rampant through out hollywood to be concerned about.

It’s Sumi Jo. And the fact that they didn’t bother to check is extra oof, considering this is a post about lack of respect for diversity.

The Korean nominee’s name is Sumi Jo (or Jo Sumi, but definitely not Sumi Jowas as the article currently has it).

Everything about the Grammys is very, very American. David Bowie was a lot of things, but he was never that.

Demi is totally back tracking because she rightfully got called out for being an ass.
