What if Chris had made a joke about Bradley's mom being short or something, and Bradley had a white knight hissy fit like Will did.
What discussion would we be having right now?
If he had joked about it in 2016 I think people would accept it.
shareThey'd be calling him a racist because people that support smith are hypocritical bigoted goal post movers.
shareHe'd be under arrest, stripped of his Oscar and banned from future events. Unfortunately, black folk have a ton of privilege they claim white people have, which is completely untrue.
shareThen his career would be over.
shareProps to Chris Rock for having class and professionalism. Smith face planted on the world stage.
shareRock is done with the Oscars now. If the joke had been vetted and used it would have all been on Smith, but Rock didn't vet the joke in the rehearsal which is a big no no. If he had run it past the producers they would most likely told him no. You don't make fun of a medical condition like that.
shareHis career would be over and he would face criminal chargers plus he would be labeled a racist forever.
shareThe cops woulda showed up and shot chris rock for joking while black.
