I pretty deeply and intricately understand humor. There's no humor in that tweet whatsoever... it's not a joke, it's not clever, there's no punchline, it's not insightful. It's just him stating his homophobic belief.

The thing you DDIQ's don't realize is that you're only hastening the era of extreme censorship by fighting something like this. You don't have the fortitude to stand up against someone who encourages beating gay children? Then you'll just be, rightfully, seen as someone who shouldn't be listened to when these people are actually overstepping their bounds when it comes to being offensive. You'll be dismissed and silenced because you proved yourself to be irrational in the past.

Consider someone like Pewdiepie. White male. #1 subscriber on youtube. Huge campaign to keep him #1 by thousands of people. Dude said the n-word in a video game. The difference between him and Kevin Hart? Pewdiepie didn't mean it and he apologized.

This is the second time you claim he said he'd beat his child if said child is gay. This is the first I've heard of such, and I've read numerous news articles about it.

Link the tweet or tweets where he says he'd assault his gay child.

If anything Kevin harts situation exemplifies
White privilege. Why do I say this? Amy fucking Shummer is like the Donald trump of comedy and the same entertainment community defended her for it under the guise of its comedy guise lol :

https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2015/07/06/dont-believe-her-defenders-amy-schumers-jokes-are-racist/?utm_term=.b13b80184352

Schumers stint as the MTV movie awards host, where she joked that Latina women are crazy. In one of her stand-up routines, Schumer also says, Nothing works 100 percent of the time, except Mexicans. In another bit, she blithely told an audience that Latino men are rapists. I used to date Hispanic guys, but now I prefer consensual.

Schumer responded to this criticism by explaining that she likes pretending to be an irreverent idiot


No apology, ever. She doubled down because its comedy, yo

Worse than I was remembering because he wanted to beat him for just acting gay. Implying it'd be worse if he were actually gay?

Lol.

This is 100% true though. Pewdiepie used a slur directed at no one. I forgive people who do that. That's not what Kevin Hart did. I'm not focused on Hart using slurs at all and the tweet that I reposted doesn't even have a slur.

I know this is complicated but that's why you guys are being so easily manipulated by it.

He instantly went for racial slur that is used against Black people. He said it in a casual manner and brushed it off stating that he "forgot" that he was online, which heavily implies that he uses the slur when he isn't being filmed. And this isn't the only time that he's said racist shit. So no, there's literally nothing that indicates that he didn't mean it.

It's been nearly a decade since those tweet, Hart has apologized, and admitted that he was upset because of his own insecurities.

Doesnt that say something about black comedians then?

No, it actually says something about white people and their homophobic jokes.

If there is a problem in the world then trace it back to white people.

Kevin Harts reaction to all of this was extremely tone deaf, but it does go to highlight the double standards between minority and white entertainers.

Lena Dunham literally lied to slander a sexual assault victim and is rewarded with an issue in the Hollywood reporter

minorities in the industry are given far less slack

Pewdiepie is swedish and his exposure to the n-word is likely through american rap songs. he probably doesn't fully understand the history behind it. it's a lot easier to believe he actually didn't mean it.

This a real post, made by a real person...holy shit
