In what context are you using the word "sorry"?

An adjective, describing the noun(Chuck)

Or an interjection, as in an apology?

Sorry Chuck, .....as an interjection!

😉

Its only ever a fúcken one-way street, isn't it!

Next there will have to be a public apology to the blackman, Eddie Murphy, for voicing "Donkey" from Shrek.

What a belittling role for Eddie Murphy, voicing a dumb-ass annoying donkey but with other redeeming characteristics that make him likeable. So I guess it balances.

Unless you want to debate who the real lead role is....

ROFLMAO.
So, they get an India Indian American to voice Apu with what accent?? Racist!
Sitcoms funny for all because they amplify characteristics.
No more accents allowed I guess.
Orwellian.
Only grey allowed now. Only electronic voices too. Eunich TV.
Well I'm not yet afraid to laugh.
Hell, today I called my son ( with a laugh) a fat bastard. Unafraid. Unapologetic to own balls.
Maybe the meek shall inherit the earth but not the nuetered.
Bahahahaha.

Occurred to me after another drink and a cigar listening to 1940s radio. How far away are we from burning books?? The sane should be laughing. And keeping their powder dry. (If anyone still knows what that means.) Whatever ain't banned. Bahahahaha.

But really, only the SJWs like Chuck are allowed to bait. The rest are knuckledraggers. GFYS!

So, no more impressionist comedians?

I knew a Chinese guy who looked more native than most natives, because everyone assumed he was native, he decided to play the part too. Is that acceptable, when one minority ( who is actually a majority) portrays another minority?

This literally could paralyze commerce, entertainment, medicine, policing, courts etc., as everyone will be afraid to say or do anything for fear of being labelled a racist by Chuck and friends, with all the consequences that entails.

You better go have a few more drinks, you're on a roll.

That's why I would never get elected.
People can't handle the truth.

And how are all these changes going to affect you negatively?

I am not a victim of racism, so how this affects me is irrelevant. The relevant question is, how will this positively affect people suffering from racism. If Simpsons removes the visible minorities from their show, does that in any way help other visible minorities?

I guess the difference is, some of us think results actually matter.

I think the solution is nobody should be allowed to have children with someone from their own race.

In afew hundred years there will only be one race.....the human race.

Too schtoopit....

I expect you say this in jest, but I actually agree. Not sure I support the "allowed" part, but slowly, we will eliminate races. Just look at the average white north american. A few generations ago, our ancestors were segregated into enclaves of their fellow former countrymen, and the racial slurs of the day (and actual discrimination) were against Irish, or Polish, or Ukrainians etc. Fast forward to today, and try to find a young person who still identifies as a single European ethnicity, let alone experiences systemic racism.

We will get there eventually. Lots of inter racial, and inter cultural marriages (My own included) around here, mostly thanks to the dispropportionate number to males to females from the oil boom days, forcing us to look further afield.

That easy. By giving acting and voice jobs to people who are being represented.

Refer to post #3 in this thread.
Do you think they couldn't find a Caucasian to voice "Donkey"?
