Imagine being the title star of *the* number 1 show on television, for which you are receiving millions of dollars, and being told by your boss "you can do anything and everything short of *publically* calling black people monkeys (*AGAIN*) without facing punishment"

...and failing.

Feel bad for her co-stars, but this needed to happen. Her pattern of problematic statements has been an issue for a bit and her latest tweets were particularly abhorrent.

Can we get a John Goodman variety hour?

Lmao. Serves her right.
Sucks for the other people on the show.

Personally I would have written her off saying we got murdered by a white supremist or something.

Take note of who is decrying this among your friends, family, facebook feeds, etc and you'll see who might talk a good game but at the end of the day is cool with supporting bigotry and racism as long as they are entertained for 30 minutes once a week. Cut them out.

He's currently backpedaling saying it was clearly meant to show no resemblance.

Just reported this fuckwad.
I love it when these idiots throw red meat to their base thinking they'll lap it up then try and pretend they didn't when it backfires.

Own your racism, alt-right talking head. At least for all her repugnant stupidity and racism, Roseanne owned being a piece of shit and gave a token apology.

Hi @therealroseanne, it's time for you to strike back against these THOUGHT POLICE and really shake them up! You've been on the show before and it's time for you to come back on! #Roseanne

The racist shitheel should never have been allowed back on Television to begin with but the fact they cancelled it with just a one-line LMFAO, well done Disney. Well done.

I don't really align with this philosophy. We can hold ABC accountable for their mistake in bringing the show back while still acknowledging that they did the right thing in the end. Do they need to be labeled as 100% good or 100% bad for some reason? Are we not allowed to take a deeper dive than that?

Roseanne: *does racist shit*
ABC: Here's your show reboot
Everybody with sense: Umm she's kind of racist
ABC: *shrugs*
Roseanne: *does more racist shit*
ABC: this does not reflect our values
Everybody with sense: Told you so

You: can you guys pls not be critical of ABC?

I actually was enjoying some of the new season, so I am sad for the rest of the talent, specially John Goodman and Ames McNamara (the kid that played the grandson), who were my favorites. But yeah, completely understandable, and Ms. Barr is absolutely solely to blame.

On top of that, on a personal level, my feelings are kinda "great, another stupid Jewish person making the rest of us look bad and giving the world more reason to hate us". As a Jew, why should we add more fuel to the hate fire? It is despicable. And this isn't the first time my people sabotage themselves like this. It hurts me, it personally hurts me. The bigoted tweets done by Ms. Barr do us Jewish people no favors. Make fun of Nazis, have satire, that's edgy and cool and you can argue you can do it since you're Jewish. This shit though? Nope, can't defend this, it is wrong and bigoted, simple as that. Shame on her.

I wish the rest of the talented cast nothing but the best. Frankly, they deserve better.

Roseanne is a dumb racist who should not have gotten a continuation of her show but was given one and destroyed it with her stupid comments.
