It’s just all too much. The only one I give a shit about in this whole fucking thing is Jada. She should have been the one delivering that slap, too. Rock’s joke was pathetic, Smith’s reaction was typical toxic manly behavior, and the whole thing reeks of two men who don’t want to learn how to be better human beings and, instead, lean on nasty old tropes of what it means to be a comedian, to be a man.
Now this is all anyone will talk about all day. The world burns, but sure… Will Smith slapped Chris Rock and swore at him, and isn’t THAT the real thing we should be discussing all day long? Our society is a sickness, and the Oscars are just one more example of why.
