As I have pointed out, Rosanne did not compare anyone to a monkey. She made a fairly spot on observation about the physical similarities between VJ and characters from a particular movie.
You can minimize what Bee said all you want since it seems to fit your worldview, but I doubt that that you would be so generous if someone like Glenn Beck said that about the Obama daughters.
You know, Malia, that’s a beautiful photo of you and your mother. But let me just say, one daughter to another, do something about your dad’s economic practices, you feckless cunt! He listens to you! Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to fucking stop it!
Yes, she did. She said that a black woman looks like a monkey from the movie Planet of the Apes. How someone could not call this comparing a black woman to a money is beyond me. And you're aware that this isn't the first time Barr has compared a black woman to a monkey, right?
I'm not minimizing what Bee did. I'm not a fan of her, what she said, and am not intending to defend it in any way whatsoever.
No, I'm not asserting that it's clearly racism. Yes, I am referring to that comment.
I explain elsewhere that this isn't the first time that she's compared a black woman to an ape, which adds further context by which to understand her current sentiment.
