So like, I see people talking about “canceling” Chris Rock and like, does the dude even have enough of a career to “cancel” anyway?

Like I know he still does shows but my understanding is that he’s been doing more or less the same “jokes” that he’s been doing since I was in high school

he was already canceled with HANDS

Classics like:
“Women are liars”
“Women are whores”
“I hate women”
“Gaaaaaaaaaay”

Referencing shit that came out over 20 years ago

Like even that insult to Jada that suddenly made him more relevant than he’s been in 15+ years

Referencing GI Jane

“What are you getting so upset about Will, it was just a joke about GI Jane”

1. What was even the joke? “She’s bald just like a character in a movie” is not a joke

2. GI Jane came out in 1997

Do they just keep Chris in a stasis pod and roll him out every once in a while?

Princess Emily : you make a solid point

honestly the self-restraint Will Smith showed there was impressive

he calmly walks up to him, cracks him in the face, and walks away

I have never heard of Chris Rock before. Must be an US thing.

Tillie : he was a very successful comedian in the 90’s and early 2000’s. Like fly around in a private jet successful

I remember when I was a teenager, he was somewhat infamous for a joke he made about OJ Simpson murdering his wife. His exact words were (and I’m sorry ahead of time here):

“I’m not saying he should’ve killed the bitch. But I understand. “
