I wouldn’t be surprised if they impeach trump again once they have control of the senate. yeah too little too late but if it prevents him from holding office again I’m all in favor (bonus points if it takes away his secret service detail). Altho not holding my breath that 17 repub senators would do the right thing.

Mitt has always tried to have his cake and eat it too - he wags his finger at Trump occasionally so that he can appear to be reasonable, but falls in line with some truly awful policies the rest of the time.

I’m no Mitt fan, but he certainly didn’t just decide to stop backing Trump. He voted to remove Trump from office in 2019. He was the only Republican who did.

So they’re praising him for doing the bare minimum of not backing a coup. Like, he’s still backing shitty policies and has for the most part backed Trump’s shit in the past. But no, he gets a cookie for not wanting to outright overthrow the government.

“IT’S SAD TO SEE IT BEING USED AND ABUSED INCORRECTLY!!”

I really want to know what museum, exactly, they think wants a defunct Battlebot? Do they think the Met has a Battlebots section? The Smithsonian?

I will say that as a young person in my teens and early 20's, I bought into the ironic bigotry jokes. It was until I was older and out of my very white suburban environment that I was able to understand why others would be hurt by them. At no point did I actually believe any of the stereotypes behind them, but that…

My comment appears to have been dismissed. Don’t worry, I’ll re-post it:

Says the guy who tried to compare Bean Dad to Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor...

Hey, that’s Carlos Danger!

He was convicted. He served his sentence. My personal opinion, which is no surprise given my profession, is that he, like everyone, has the right to employment. I see no problem here.

Mr. Crusher, you don’t deserve to wear that uniform

Mel Brooks and Richard Pryor would like a word. Maybe they could tell you that you can tell them apart by thinking about it for half a second.

Yup! If the “parody” bigotry is indistinguishable from the real thing, then he’s failing both morally and professionally, given that he’s theoretically a comedian/entertainer.

Apologizing after you’re facing professional consequences for being an abusive asshole really weakens the apology. Especially since he spent a bunch of time doubling down when the backlash started. 

I was hoping 2021 would be the year celebrities come back to life.

Yeah, might have started a new burner. Also a milestone on the troll trajectory. :D 

I’ve already reported him to the mods via the AV Club email for tips.

You can see the trajectory trolls take, and it’s never nearly as novel as they seem to think it is.
