Pretty sure that there was the other photo scandal this week w
Fuxsake, i ran out of japanese liquor, where is dusty
Honestly, I hope conservatives send the message that this isn't OK but nobody needs to be cancelled because of it.
That's whiskey medsFor relaxing times, make it Suntory time
Cos that is the Hollywood producer du jour, and the other druggie Downey jr actorWhy was it ok for Robert Downie Jnr?
You're taking about Tropic Thunder? If so, because that's an art piece. The presence of blackface is part of the story. I'm not sure if you're asking me ironically or not. I hope so.Why was it ok for Robert Downie Jnr?
Yes, judd Apatow gets a pass cos intersectionalism is utterly incoherent and two laws for fat men and fat shamingYou're taking about Tropic Thunder? If so, because that's an art piece. The presence of blackface is part of the story. I'm not sure if you're asking me ironically or not. I hope so.

Pretty sure they were subcontinent Aussie psychiatrists from Alfred or Royal Melb psyche ward.Wasnt the indian chap on Hey Hey doing an art piece when he did his Michael Jackson skit?
What about Michael Richards and his racist tirade? Does he get a free pass because it was artistic?
All seems rather arbitrary to me. Probably the best example i can think of re looking the other way is -
Roman Polanski
Have you seen one flew over the cuckoo's nest, yeah, well forget nurse ratchet, it is enuff to send the shrinks mad
I don't know all of those examples but I do recall the Hey Hey one. That particular performance doesn't compare IMO. The pushback against blackface is very much about similar contextual use of it in the past that had overtly racist content. Compare that to a film in which the changing of an actor's race through surgery for a role is examined through parody. It's opposite ends of the spectrum.Wasnt the indian chap on Hey Hey doing an art piece when he did his Michael Jackson skit?

Wasn't that written as a troll? I have heard of one mentioned that was. Have a feeling it's that.
You may have heard of intersectionality - "the theory that the overlap of various social identities, such as race, gender, and sexuality, define your level of systemic oppression" - but don't know how to compare your oppression with others. Now, you can!
Can I be accused of being oppressive even if I have a high score?
Yes, having a high intersectionality score doesn't completely immunize you from being called an oppressor.

mine is pretty good, with a cycling focusI assume so but I dont know. There are a few amusing twitter satire accounts that are not bad. One of them even got a few articles published in the Guardian before they realised.
I'd like to say rational people, be we know it's mobs and corporate interests.I dont disagree with you at all. What I am trying to say is who decides?
Doyle. Worth watching some of his media appearances. Usually a voice of reason, which is what comedians should be. They are supposed to be the jesters who shroud the uncomfortable truths with humour.mine is pretty good, with a cycling focus
Titiana McGrath is gr8, Andrew Molloy or some gay comedian does that
To be fair, Downey Jnr in that movie played the role of a white Australian actor portraying a black soldier through blackface. And it was to show the outrageous lengths his character would go to for a movie role. And his character is called out numerous times throughout the film for being offensive and taking a job away from a black actor. I think that's why Downey Jnr's blackface role escapes criticism compared to others in Hollywood.Why was it ok for Robert Downie Jnr?
