Violence isn’t ok. Assault is never the answer. Also? This is the 2nd time that Chris has made fun of Jada on the #Oscars stage, & tonight he went after her alopecia. Punching down at someone’s auto-immune disease is wrong. Doing so on purpose is cruel. They both need a breather.

Dear God is alopecia, not something that actually kills you. Making fun of alopecia or baldness is on the same thing as making fun of gingers.

---

Not for a woman. Maybe have just an ounce of empathy here. Yes, she's batsh*t crazy otherwise, but it was still uncalled for. As was Will's response. They're all in the wrong.

---

Yeah they're both wrong, but it's a joke and they'll all survive. I'll save my empathy for my patients when I get to tell them they have something much more life threatening than alopecia.

Chris Rock also jokes about Jada randomly at 2016 Oscar's. There's probably a messy backstory here and they don't like each other.

historical context: the last time Chris Rock hosted the Oscars, in 2016, he said "Jada Pinkett Smith boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna's panties—I wasn't invited!"

Maybe she's just not a very good person.

She isn't. She's a lying, cheating hoar who Will should've tossed to the curb years ago.

“Love will make you do crazy things.”

Every woman who's ever been hit has heard that one.

Should've said he was sorry and followed it up with "Honestly Jada, nothing compares to you."

I know everyone is talking about the thing but I can’t shake the In Memoriam. Legitimately believed they were about to launch into Boot Scootin Boogie while Peter Bogdanovich was on screen

it’s like the #Oscars producers wished for higher ratings on a Monkey’s Paw

Unrelated note, how does Dune win everything it won and not win Best Picture

Also, how does it win every technical award under the son, but the director - the one person in charge of all those technical aspects - isn't even nominated.

As I said in my post, would have been surprised if he had.

Also, I find it hilarious that when I googled who the winners were, tonight, the first headline i see is about the first openly queer woman of color winning best supporting actress.... ROFL. I mean... when is this kind of **** gonna end? At some point, can't we just be people who earn things?

Good to see Jomboy has moved on from his Astro bashing because this is pretty good. Especially where Rock starts "man I could …" and then takes the high road.

What a sad commentary when you slap the crap out of someone on live TV, win an Oscar, get a standing ovation and then accept that Oscar talking about “love”. There was so much wrong about this moment. #Oscars2022 pic.twitter.com/D5iVIpqYiQ

The silver lining? Thankfully for Jada and other alopecia sufferers, the world will have a dramatic increase in alopecia experts and will be able to find free advice on all social media platforms.

Glad Chris Rock didn't tell a joke about Alec Baldwin's wife.

It's gonna start getting like those super specific sports stats, "first openly woman of color, whose name ends in N to win best supporting actress in an odd numbered year"

Exactly. It just starts to become ridiculous.

We can just be people who earn things when people like you stop calling it out and rolling your eyes at it. Who cares? There are people out there who find value and hope in seeing people like themselves achieve things like this. And that's perfectly fine. The more normal it becomes, the less there will be a need to draw attention to it.

Me: nothing...
Hollywood: THE FIRST OPENLY QUEER WOMAN OF COLOR TO WIN AN ACTING AWARD.
Me: "Rofl... what?"
Hollywood and TCTTS: WE ONLY DO THIS BECAUSE YOU CALL IT OUT AND ROLL YOUR EYES.

... I mean... you have to see how stupid that is. Are you that crazy?

good 'ole bill burr sums this idea up pretty well

TCTTS said:

---

But why even the "Rofl… what???"

It's not about you, for you, or has anything to do with you. So why do you feel the need to inject an opinion at all?

---

Because I'm a living human who is a part of society? I believe it is in our nature to react to crazy?

You truly are delusional.

I mean, it's a televised award show, so it kind of is for the public…

Also, I react far less to Hollywood crazy than you do to anyone who says anything negative about Hollywood.

It's YOUR *opinion* that it's crazy, though. For a queer black or Hispanic girl, seeing someone like herself win an award like that can be EVERYTHING. For the same reason so many dads on this board have talked about how much Rey in Star Wars means to their daughters, this is the same thing. Seeing someone like yourself on screen, and then seeing that person celebrated by winning an award, shows that it's possible to achieve something like that, especially when it's literally never happened before. So why insert yourself and mock and roll your eyes and do everything you can to show the opposite of empathy for what is otherwise a cool moment for someone other than yourself?

Basically all I've done is bash Hollywood tonight, just as I've done many times before on this board, so we can officially put that narrative to bed…
