Forum Overview :: Tansin A. Darcos's Alter Ego
 
Re: Jesus Christ by blackwater 02/23/2017, 6:00pm PST
I'm asking because all I saw it reported on is that he made the video and was in trouble, not that he was a nazi. Seems like WSJ asked them about the antisemitic jokes he made so they dropped him. Either way the original article requires me to login so I don't really give a shit.


The point is that it wasn't an antisemitic joke. The punchline was that "people will do anything for money" including holding up a sign with something really embarrassing on it.

My take is this, if you're a kid's entertainer it's pretty fucking stupid to be regularly cracking any kind of edgy humor. No one was wrong to drop him, and no one was wrong to ask disney why they signed a guy who makes anti-semitic jokes.


I agree that it was stupid, and not in good taste, and not funny. But so is pretty much everything on YouTube?

Whether this happened to him because he made some dumb video 'supporting trump' or because 'traditional media is trying to regain it's stranglehold' or whatever else you trogs think, doesn't really matter to me.


I don't understand the Trump angle-- maybe you guys can explain it to me. WSJ is Republican. They didn't like Trump at first, but they seem to becoming more pro-Trump lately. Are they really trying to target Trump supporters? It seems kind of odd to me. I read the story more as a lazy reporter misrepresenting a dumb joke as something it wasn't to get clicks.
