Throwing her in the trash where she belongs. It's hilarious she wants to go back to the propaganda machine Faux and got denied.
Yeah, heard about that.
Latest is that first MK & her lawyer demanded $69 million, now they want $50 million. She'll be lucky to get $25M...still too much but NBC's own fault.
She should have been told that blackface persist today as a convention from the origin of the American theater. It has been deemed acceptable only in theater and comedy and is not appropriate in social gatherings. Yul Brynner's entire career was done in what could be called blackface in " The King and I." And then they have should have moved on.
Yeah....but where did I lie? You don't believe the races are inately equal in their capacity for intelligence and temperment and you keep obfuscating that fact by characterizing my argument as scapegoating
Can you explain to me why the only part of the human anatomy not subject to the results of evolution is the brain?
No, it is not true. It's a LIE. See post #430.
Read and try to learn something.
Blackface has NEVER been okay, except to whites who ridicule blacks.
Youre interpreting the point completely wrong. There IS a difference between going in "black face" as the minstrel shows, and darkening ones skin to portray a black character- usually a person of the current era long after the demise of minstrel shows.
Look at Jimmy Kimmel as Karl Malone. Do you see someone in a minstrel show? If thats the first thing that comes to mind then you are looking for racism everywhere and youre part of the problem.
Blacks would also have a lot more credibility over the race issue if a good number or even majority of them were not engaged in the following:
Buying products for skin lightening.
Buying products for hair straightening.
Dyeing their hair blonde and other colors naturally inherent to whites.
Systematic discrimination toward dark skinned blacks by lighter skinned blacks.
Why so quick to blame others when the issue is often being uncomfortable in your own skin?
I don't think firing of Megyn Kelly was necessary. She just made a comment that was not a taboo from her childhood. Thanks to entertainment, media, publishing, journalism, social media, tech and academia being over ran by feminist and Social Justice in the past decade. What was insensitive in the past, has become sensitive now. The reason why? In the past decades, feminist and social justice schools of thought invaded and captured the following industries. Media, tech, social media, publishing, entertainment, academia, journalism. In these such industries, those that be can control the whole entire narraitive of the country, even though those people in such spheres of influence are in the minority vs the majority of Americans. Black face is offensive, but a decade ago Jimmy Falon, Jimmy Kimmel and Robert Downey Jr all did black face. Problem with Blackface is that it is part of Hollywood, TV and part of American entertainment history, and it will be hard to erase. If Megyn Kelly did make a comment like now, but ten years ago. I can guarantee her show would have never got canned, due to no fear of an SJW mob.
Yeah....but where did I lie? You don't believe the races are inately equal in their capacity for intelligence and temperment and you keep obfuscating that fact by characterizing my argument as scapegoating
Yeah, hey! I was scapegoated by Government use of scapecoating Government employees's wrongdoings.
Forget whitewashing. In my case the Government used whiteout on court testimony records.
Black words were whited out.
Just something to drink about.
