    Did she ever apologize for her “dingo ate your baby” joke after it was proven that it actually happened just the way the mother said it did.

    Too many in that show are awful people. Jerry is an “I don’t care about Palestine” Zionist which is crazy for someone of Syrian descent. The Kramer actor whose name I couldn’t care less about is pretty racist, his only saving grace is that he had enough self awareness to fuck off in to obscurity. Jerry fully supports him btw.

      No idea about the dingo stuff. Kramer was trying to do a bit a took it too far, he isn’t really racist. And Jerry went off on the deep end. But his post isn’t about that.

        Non-white people don’t say that word without being a bit racist. Pretty fucking dumb on his part.

        Even actors get uncomfortable saying it in a script as a character, as would I.

          Did you forget that it was like in 2006? People were saying all kinds of shit like that at that time with impunity. Actual comedians were saying it, that didn’t make them racist. Bull Burr was saying the N-word and other slurs, and he is actually married to a black woman. Michael was trying to do a bit and it horribly went downhill.
