Bill Cosby

[hardblue.livejournal.com]

It’s even worse because Bill Cosby has the fuckin’ smuggest old black man persona that I hate Buress said. He gets on TV, “Pull your pants up black people, I was on TV in the 80s! I can talk down to you because I had a successful sitcom!” Yeah, but you rape women, Bill Cosby, so turn the crazy down a couple notches. “I don't curse on stage!” But yeah, you're a rapist, so...

-- Hannibal Buress






I've always been a Cosby fan, and I would have left the issue for others, but I saw these cartoons, and it has gotten hard for me to pass such by.

Wow. Cosby was skewered in the cartoon media.

And here I thought the directions this could take couldn't get weirder than the ones in the OP.

It is hard when the people who create things we enjoy also represent the worst of society.

Just like America!

Its only alleged right now right? How certain are people he's guilty?

True, and I get the feeling that he probably won't be convicted, but as many commentators argue, this is not just 'he said, she said', but it's 'he said, and a couple of dozen others saying the same thing.' It's time for him to take an ignominious retirement, I think.

17 women and counting. Plus the whole settlement thing. I think he has an ugly past. I can forgive people who own up to such, but he is saying he is innocent of all charges, including the one he settled with a cash payment out of court.

17?? It's up to 17? Holy fuck

Black youth got nothing on bill in the pants down department.

"I can forgive people who own up to such"

Has anyone done that in this situation? That would seem like a noteworthy exception to the trend.

Anyone famous? Hmm. John Lennon.

I'm aware that he was a physically abusive and generally unpleasant person through, seemingly, most of his life... and he seems to have admitted that. Has he admitted sexual abuse?
