I think Kanye is another one people have learned to not take too seriously. His brain is just all over the place.

Have fun being a liberal, by the way.

Thanks. It is very "liberating".

I will not hold my breath
I don't condone what Tom Arnold said at all but what disgust me as well is the conservatives jump down his throat. The same people supporting the president, but they forget all the inappropriate and misogynistic things he has said and done.

I have no clue what this conversation was about. Nor do I want to go read about it.

I can't think of anything I've watched with him in it. All I know is he's Roseanne's ex.
However from what I've seen it's just a common phrase that people make. It's none of my business.

Risqué language has been modified by the internet, where there are fewer censors.
It's like people saying a woman has balls except in that case it's a compliment.

Of course but this is nothing new. It's because he is a "successful" businessman so he can be forgiven.
I'm more worried about the fact that Jeff Bezos apparently (I'm not sure if it's true..hope it's not) doesn't pay their employees enough considering I love Amazon but I don't see any threads about that which is interesting since his supporters hate Amazon since Trump started bashing that company. I bet it's because a liberal was the one that criticized him for it and they don't want to admit that a liberal can criticize their own side.

The hypocrisy and double standards of the left in this thread is, well expected. Again, if this was a conservative comedian and he made his comments directed towards a black liberal there would be outrage, protests on CNN and MSNBC and they would be calling for every single one of his comedy shows to be canceled. He has a tour going on right now plus the summer, yet not one leftist will call for these comedy clubs to cancel his show because he's a liberal and she's a black conservative.

Just as I suspected.
But I bet you still voted for him, didn't you?

See, that's the difference between you and me. Tom Arnold has always been a d*ck.
As such, I wouldn't read a tweet, watch a movie or otherwise expose myself to anything that he is involved in.
Contrast that to those who, despite claiming that they were aghast at Trump's comments somehow managed to see past those to foist him on everyone else in the country.

And liberals have double-standards?

Puleeze.

The only reason I even opened this thread was to see just how all liberals were going to get blamed for his actions.
Or something.

Epic fail in that regard.

Sure, I'll condemn what he said because it was disgusting and not worthy of any notice whatsoever.
Congratulations for making sure that he gets more attention than he is worth.

Right?


I wish someone would write a rule-book or something so that we'd know if it is Monday, stupid celebrity statements are okay to pay attention to, but not okay the rest of the week.

It's all so confusing.
