He has made no other statements besides this to my knowledge, why do we have to wait to react to this? This is what we have to go on for now, so this is what we are discussing.
And I already said I would welcome clarification. We don't have it at the moment, and possibly will never get it.
Because we want to give him the benefit of the doubt, considering we think he's a level headed person and not a bigot based on the work he's done in the past. We (reasonable people, I guess) would HOPE he wouldn't say something shitty. That's why we're looking to assuage our concerns and fears. "Surely he didn't mean it like that" because we hope he didn't. A lot of people are tired of seeing people whose work they enjoy turning shitty and making it so you don't really want to like their stuff anymore. It sucks, and I hope this isn't the case, because I feel very strongly for equality and equal representation, and I don't want Billy Crystal to be standing in the way of something I previous felt he had my back on.
I don't know if what I said really makes much sense, but it's the best way I could figure out how to word it. I want him to be an ally for this and I was sure he was, but hearing this COULD be a huge disappointment and I hope that's not the case.
