Comments by "Jason Dashney" (@jasondashney) on "Joe Rogan apologizes for using racial slurs" video.
People were fine with it because that's the way society viewed it. Go watch old Louis CK bits. He directly uses it and he directed Pootie Tang. Nobody cared because again it was in context. Criticizing people for doing stuff that was totally fine when they did it is horrible. The planet of the apes one is a bit rough because I can't think of the contacts where it would've made sense, but still, there is clear evidence Joe isn't a racist so this is absolutely a witchhunt so those people can fuck right off.

Yeah that one was a little cringe. That's not one you can use in context because the theatre was not in a setting that looked like the movie at all.

So you are assuming a behaviour behind closed doors of your friends because of their race? You're judging them based on that, especially with no actual evidence? There's a word for that......

It's perfectly okay to directly refer to that word in absolutely no uncertain terms. It's never meaning anything but that word specifically. We all know that. Yet even uttering it once can get you cancelled. It's a fucking clown world. It's not like how "fricken" can actually mean "fricken" to the person who said it. It doesn't always meant as a substitute for "fucking". Some people truly use those in two different ways to represent 2 different things. But not the word being talked about here. The fact that it's 100% of the time eating the same thing means it's absolutely insane that you can't say it. Even more ridiculous is that you can't see it if you are specific skin colors. If you see a word written in text, and you have to investigate the colour of the person who wrote it before you can decide whether or not you are outraged is ridiculous. And then you have to dig deeper and find out what percentage that person is. 50%? We've all collectively decided that's OK. 25%? 10%? It's so stupid. There's nothing like taking a word and making it taboo to give it extreme power. It's so counterproductive.

You guys are really going after him. Maybe it's because you recognize him as the threat to you he actually is. He rips you guys all the time and rightly so. He also MURDERS your ratings. Instead of attacking him, you should figure out why he has those ratings.

Non apology? He very directly says he feels awful about it. That's the epitome of an apology. He didn't say "I know you aren't supposed to use that word anymore so I regret it", he said he truly feels bad for really reals. If that's not good enough for you then what would be? Should he cut off a finger in tribute?

Forget racial slur. You can get cancelled for damn near anything now. But only if you have an ideology they don't like. The Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has several photos of him in full out black face available with a quick Google search. Why wasn't he completely canceled? He did the usual canned apology and all was forgiven. If you think they're gonna do the same with Joe Rogan you haven't been paying attention.

Wow, you are the worst type of person and I mean that very literally. Being absolutely unwilling to accept an apology from anybody ever is not only going to lead to extreme division and hatred, but it also makes you a hypocrite because I guarantee you've said things other people have found distasteful or offensive, probably including yourself because people grow and change as they get older. The only way I will have any respect for that opinion whatsoever is if you hold yourself to the same standard and do not get irritated when somebody is mad about something you said decades ago. You better have come out of the womb with perfect moral views about every single thing at all times. If you eventually figure out that that's not possibly a good way to live, then it's all good because that's part of growing as a human being but if in your heart of hearts you're literally unforgiving to everyone about everything, then I actually feel kind of bad for you because you would have the most miserable life imaginable because not a single person alive can possibly live up to that, including yourself so your self-hatred must be through the roof.

I dunno. They got him by the toe. Are his balls next? I'm totally fine with him apologizing if that's what's in his heart. Always speak your truth. But the fact that he didn't go after the people who absolutely are trying to demonize him, and that they're doing it on purpose as opposed to actually trying to right any wrongs, is what disappoints me.
