Do you also say "that's too far" when someone punches a nazi spouting their shit?
when did i say the slap was worse than the shit the others did off screen? because hollywood is filled with scum of earth types chris rock gets to be assaulted? how does that work?
Apart from the fact that he declined to press charges, has Chris Rock commented or been seen since the incident?
Genuinely insane how normalized and accepted violence is in our world in so many different ways and it takes the image of a Black guy slapping someone for people to go nuts
Yep this is the worst part. Two childish actions by two grown men ruined his moment. Great doc btw, everyone should watch it.
Comparing a low hanging fruit joke to a ranting Nazi is just an insane comparison. Cmon...
I'm not sure how many more times this needs to be said, but are you a woman? Do you know how psychologically damaging it is for a woman to be unable to achieve a societal measure of femininity?
Where's the line for you, then? Give me an example of where violence in retaliation for words just breaches the line of acceptability.
A financial institution with tens of thousands of employees. To be clear, it's not a common thing to just happen and in almost 20 years I've only witnessed anything come to that less than a handful of times, but as far as I'm aware none of them were fired immediately and continued to be employed going forward.
If Will Smith gets suspended for a year (they are NOT taking that Oscar back, that has NEVER happened), there is no chance Rock doesn't get the same. They want to be seen as taking some action, so both will be uninvited for 2023. Whatever they do to Smith, they'll do to Rock.
Don't forget the armchair psychologists who are deeply concerned about Will's obvious mental health issues 🙄
I don't have a line with words. If someone physically attacks me, my family or my friends then its game on. Words don't merit assault for me personally. I have worked in the juvenile/adult justice system for years in the past, so I have been called all kinds of things by very frustrated and immature people. I just try to be a bigger person and understand that that person is suffering and there isn't a need for response with violence.
I agree with this AND I'll add to it the sort of...pre-emptive accusations of racism are really odd. Nothing of consequence has happened to Will Smith, and he uneventfully returned to his seat to later receive a major award. I mean...there's no lighter consequence than "nothing".
Oh no what would the Academy do without their credibility... that they definitely have...
Y'all need to stop using the corporate world as this righteous arbiter, especially not on a video game forum where we've seen multiple stories of abusers and assaulters keep their job. The fact is that you have no idea how every company would react to a situation.
Half of them always shocked when some white dude goes on a shooting spree. But no, this is the incident where we need to come to the table about violence.
And then they'll play a game of fronthand-backhand to amuse the audience
It's a phenomenal documentary... and my #4 movie of the year.Yep this is the worst part. Two childish actions by two grown men ruined his moment. Great doc btw, everyone should watch it.
