The very first thing that came into my head after reading the headline.
comalies 22nd-Oct-2012 06:56 pm (UTC)
It's more that she defends a ton of ridiculous shit (not always related to race, see rape-rape) so whenever she does it's like rme, Whoopi is at it again. I hope maybe she's just trying to play devil's advocate but she flops at it.
mynamehere07 22nd-Oct-2012 07:28 pm (UTC)
I think Whoopi's problem is that she bends over backwards to defend Hollywood. Sometimes it seems like her need to defend a Hollywood actor supercedes any position on a debate.

Roman Polanski, since he was a Hollywood hotshot and still has connections; "Oh it wasn't rape-rape."

Mel Gibson, He was drunk and has anger problems; But it's okay that he spewed out anti-semantic bullshit, because he's Mel.

Chris Brown, He deserves a second chance, people make mistakes all the time.

I think if she hadn't had a history of defending Hollywood, I would put more merit in her "I'm not offended" excuse.

jeffreyuno_1 22nd-Oct-2012 06:29 pm (UTC)
She basically defends every horrible action of an actor...I guess because she used to be one?

alicel 23rd-Oct-2012 08:15 pm (UTC)
she is so fucking ridic.
the only reason white people get upset when a POC uses that word is because they're mad they can't say it. how about this: we white people mind our own damn business and never use that word again and acknowledge that we don't have a fucking word to say about when and how and why POC do.

evelyn_94 22nd-Oct-2012 06:09 pm (UTC)
boo hoo
why do some white people think they NEED to use the n-word?! it isn't that hard to avoid it, by now people should know it's never appropiate for a non-black person to use that word. period. there is no need to discuss it.
vanishingbee 22nd-Oct-2012 06:17 pm (UTC)
I seriously don't understand why people are so hung up on the ~right to use it, or w/e. I have to force myself to use it if I'm having a discussion on using the word at all and/or reading something aloud. It must be something to do with coming out of an environment where it's used frequently, right? Like at one point in your life the word was used around you/by you and then became not permissible?
lastingchances 22nd-Oct-2012 06:18 pm (UTC)
Bc white people are entitled as fuck
pineandapple 22nd-Oct-2012 06:29 pm (UTC)
See, this is what I don't get. You talk about racism and yet you say this? Just because we're not black or Asian doesn't mean we're still not a race. So, not everyone who's white is entitled, okay? It goes both ways.

jinnycalderone 22nd-Oct-2012 07:57 pm (UTC)
its not that i wanna use the word for me, its just hard sometimes to not say them in lyrics of popular songs when singing along like from kanye, jayz, etc. i do try hard to skip over it, but i catch myself sometimes tbh.
alicel 23rd-Oct-2012 08:16 pm (UTC)
thank you
it is such a simple concept but privilege gets in the way and white people wonder why there's something they're not allowed to do. fucking embarrassing.
fwee_prower 22nd-Oct-2012 06:10 pm (UTC)
Ok i actually watched this episode and she wasn't really defending him.

She said it was wrong and he should of used the N word when talking about his character being a racist.

plus she wanted to nip the conversation in the bud because last time they talked about the N word on the view, Elizabeth cried.
fwee_prower 22nd-Oct-2012 06:10 pm (UTC)
she also said HE should of known he would of offended his 2 black co stars.
whitefox 22nd-Oct-2012 06:11 pm (UTC)
Elizabeth cried.
LOL
it's funny when white people start crying over things like that lmao like why???

would u have rather she creamed herself instead?

I find it hilarious and infuriating. Yes, white lady lets make this about you and your feelings about my oppression.
brucelynn 22nd-Oct-2012 06:16 pm (UTC)
That's what I got from it
cricketgrl 22nd-Oct-2012 06:16 pm (UTC)
She actually did defend him by excusing that Chevy was using it in context. Even Sherri said she disagreed with Whoopi's defense that Chevy should not have used it at all.
saltireflower 22nd-Oct-2012 06:29 pm (UTC)
Wait, why was that idiot crying?
lovebats 22nd-Oct-2012 06:48 pm (UTC)
elizabeth crying because she was told how wrong she was for once was so pathetic.
sugary_placenta 22nd-Oct-2012 06:48 pm (UTC)
why did elizabeth cry?
la_petite_singe 22nd-Oct-2012 06:10 pm (UTC)
*facepalm* Of course. I mean, okay, apparently he was saying that he didn't like how offensive his character was being and saying it to explain why that's bad, but even in context it's still pretty bad coming from him, since he's known for being so offensive. So...ugh.
snuffyqui45 22nd-Oct-2012 06:10 pm (UTC)
Idk Barbara, Jeremy Renner said it a bunch and everyone still loves him, so...
