Will Smith slaps Chris Rock at the Oscars

Here's my armchair psychologist theory:

Will Smith has been driven insane by all of Jada's slutting around. I don't follow these things so I don't know the details, but I've seen clips here and there. Instead of directing his anger at her and rightfully ending their relationship, he has been directing his anger outward at every where except the person it belongs to. He physically slapped Chris Rock, but the slap was meant for his wife.

What i dont get with the resetera crazies is how this was flipped into a political issue about blackness in america…it was just two dudes having a spat ffs
Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith are a critical part of the woke landscape. Anything involving them will be analyzed to death from that perspective.

He’s just taking the high road here. I wouldn’t have apologized but this doesn’t make him a cuck.

Again, he can’t defend his joke without risking the fact that he knew about her medical condition and the moment he does that everyone turns on him. He’s likely doing this to close the book on this mess and move on with some dignity.
What higher road?? The only thing he had to do was not taking the lower one.
He did nothing wrong. The cuck is basically cancelling comedy.....

Get this through your head, no matter how mild a joke is, somebody will inevitably be offended or hurt. Then what?

Edit: Apparently it's fake, I hope so. He did nothing wrong, you shouldn't apologize if you did nothing. It will only validate and invigorate your retractors.

People defending Will Smith are the type of people with no control. One of the those “Better run bro, you can’t diss me like that”.

Smacking another person is the kind of shit grade school kids getting bullied at recess all year or pissing each other off in gym class bodychecking each other hard when the teacher isn’t looking is a good possibility. Hey, if someone is being constantly aggressive threatening and hitting you, you got defend yourself or fight back to get them off your back.

Get this. Will Smith is 53 years old. 53. He was born before Woodstock happened.

Chris rock dishing out a handful of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett jokes sporadically over 10 years, and now at an awards show, by a comedian on stage making a one off joke for laughs, which all the Hollywood peers even laughed at, is logical to lead to walking 40 ft to Chris Rock standing there and hitting him?

Will Smith even laughed at the joke.

Wow.

Some people have fringe thinking. I wonder what they’d do if they told you to not step on their front lawn, yet you do. Volatile people like this would probably run inside and load a shotgun.

Relax bravado pugilists. It’s a joke by Chris Rock at a dinner gala.

If anything it’d help Jada Pinketts career getting mentioned as she’s done nothing for years.

What’s even funnier is Will and Jada have been giving media ammo for years telling the world about their on and off relationship including that August rapper guy in the middle of it all banging Jada.

Another one of those “I love publicity, but only if it’s good vibes” celebs.

Are you okay?

No, I'm raging and seething at an invisible culture war. It's like the wind, brother. You can't see it, but you can feel it's effects. I know it might sound crazy to hamster diddledoo like yoursense but there's a New Non-Newtonian Fluid Research Project That They Tried To Cover Up From 1989 and I hear it's simply amazing when the purple flapped jaw worm does a raw blink on hari-kari rock. I need scissors! 61! Turn the console off now. I'll handle this. A whole new world. A new fantastic point of view. Under the sea. Brett screwed Brett. Montreal slap job. What you would do for a [manufactured race war] bar? ARE YA READY KIDS?!

Yes. I'm fine.

In an ideal World, any statement from Chris Rock would read something like this.
”I appreciate and accept the sincere apology from my friend Will Smith. I reject the notion, however, that I made a joke about his wife’s hair. It was not a joke about her hair. You cannot make a joke about a bald persons hair. They don’t have hair.”

Bro, that's right on point - the best take on this situation I've seen thus far.

Will Smith is, in my opinion, just a raging beta male.

that resetera thread is fucking insane. I’m just glad all those people fucked off from Neogaf and made their own containment zone.
oh you mean the second thread? which is now locked!

so that makes two threads where people were actively debating that they have had to lock because of "reeeeports"
lol.. what kind of degeneracy is that?
its a good thing that site is just an iota of the representation of the general populace... because otherwise I'd be scared for our future

LMAO that's pretty good, I'm gonna steal it and tell it to friends in real life, if you don't mind. The main reason I find this joke hilarious is because... *I* am bald.

(Pretty confident about it though, to the point where I've had more success dating after I became fully bald, than when I had a full head of hair. Life is funny that way...)

Lol of course, dude. I’m not quite there yet, but I am at the point where my hair loss is less noticeable and I look much better with very short crew cut hair. It’s kind of liberating actually.

I said the same thing a few pages ago but apparently I need to "go outside."

What right do you think people have not to be offended?
Well lets just make some examples...

Like..youre roasting someone like..Peter Dinklage...on stage..

Youre using his dwarfism as materials...

And somehow..hes angry and took offense for what you said...and proceed to file a lawsuit...

Do you think hes justified ( for what he did) or nothing hes out of the line for doing that and shouldve just acepted what you said to him...

Sure he can sue, but it would be thrown out, in the US at least. Him walking on stage and hitting is 100% unacceptable though.
