Jimmy's face in that still kills me.

All I see when I think of him is him ruffling Trump's hair and that shit from snl with the squeaky learner pants.

Idk much about Slater tho.

[devourlove]

Yeap, still hard to look past him treating Trump like a silly, fun guy in front of the whole world while he was talking bullshit from the beginning

[fluffybb]

yep, he helped to “normalize” trump ...

[komnene]

He looks like Ponyo but exasperated:

[damaliaraya]

I mean. Duh. We been knew, but I guess white people need to hear it from other whites

[shangri__la]

Unfortunately, that's exactly it.

[teenxwolf]

literally

[devourlove]

Pretty much. They won't listen to black folx but if Christian Slater is saying it, it's probably true

thanks for your service, [another white celebrity]

[deja_vu822]

true but i still hate him

[shayme]

No shit?

Why are people acting brand new? Yesterday the news did a segment on if black people are harassed by the cops and arrested more than white people. Duh? Then they said we were more likely to harassed in wealthy areas. No fucking shit?!?!? This is not new!!!

[aleksie]

It wasn't news then, but wasn't criming while white or something similar a hashtag campaign a few years ago?

[shayme]

What? Everyone knew this. It was even covered on Fresh Prince in the 90's! The early eps!

There's a lot of racist things we just turn a blind eye to. Like this. Or the fact that black people are less likely to get a job because our names sound black. People know. They just don't care.

For some people it is, sadly.
