Jun 3, 2017 Stupid how everyone is paying attention to this instead of Trump leaving Paris or the London attack but Maher's still one of the most cancerous people in existence
Jun 3, 2017 The word holds a huge historical and social weight whereas none of those other things do. It holds no bearing whether or not you think people should or shouldn't get offended by it, and honestly it's not even really about it being offensive. Black people don't like it when white people say "n----" because it represents hundreds of years of oppression and enslavement of an entire race. I mean yeah it was just a stupid joke but allowing that to be said on live TV is basically just a "f--- you" to an entire race.
Jun 3, 2017 Every time someone gets in trouble for saying "n----" or "fa----" you losers camp out to die on top of your freedom of speech hills and pretend that's what you care about yet you're nowhere to be found when your actual freedoms are being encroached on like the NSA spying on you or suppression of the press. Pick a better hill to die on or shut the f--- up. You're just mad someone told you you shouldn't use racial slurs.
Jun 3, 2017 Maybe I mixed it up with the "why are people so sensitive" topic but someone mentioned it. For the record I don't think he meant any ill will with the joke but it was a s-----y joke and he's kinda a s-----y person overall.
Jun 3, 2017 Someone said that in the thread I made about people being sensitive I think he mixed them up
Jun 3, 2017 This actually hella funny lmao. That's usually how these discussions go. Oh yeah well that's dumb. "Freedom of Speech" only protects you from the government infringing on your speech. It doesn't protect you from public backlash.
Jun 3, 2017 Are you stating the obvious? Anyone that still jokes about race in 2017 has major balls and allowing that to be aired on TV is no different than the hundreds of songs on radio blasting the word. It doesn't matter what color the man that said the word is. If Bill was black suddenly this is a hilarious joke? Any and all subjects are open for discussion... being black doesn't magically change anything Lol if you think this has anything to do with "freedoms" please jump off a building.
Jun 3, 2017 Oh stfu it's always one person that makes this s-----y point every time something that isn't a war is in the news
Jun 3, 2017 welp reminds me of an article i saw about him, colbert, and kathy earlier, talking about how 'anti trump' comedians are having a rough time rn because of her stunt, colberts joke a few weeks ago, and now this. which is kind of r-----ed given nothing happened with colbert after, and nothing he even said was out of line or remotely homophobic lol, and this wasn't even that bad
Jun 3, 2017 I didn't hear er but if that's the case then yes he's a moron and the backlash is justified
Jun 3, 2017 10 seconds ago - ''You hear about Bill Maher'' ''No what they'd do'' ''He said N-gga on television'' ''So...'' ''...He's white'' ''Oh f---''
Jun 3, 2017 I can't tell whether he said n----- or er but it's clearly a joke that went wrong you can see he immediate regretted it
