Turns out, some lefties do lose their jobs over blackface incidents. Sure, theyre not politicians -- the media/Democrats dont give up power that easily. But its still kind of fun to see cracks in the not-as-I-do hypocrisy that protects liberals from having to live by their own ever-changing rules.
Comic and progressive zealot Sarah Silverman was recently fired from a film after producers unearthed a still of her in 2007 wearing blackface for a comedy sketch., reported the Guardian August 12. Silverman related the story on the The Bill Simmons Podcast, saying that, at 11pm the night before she was to start shooting, they fired me because they saw a picture of me in blackface from a 2007 episode of the Sarah Silverman Show.
Her confusion and hurt at this turn of events seems genuine. I think its really scary and its a very odd thing that its invaded the left primarily and the right will mimic it. Maybe, but the constant howl of outrage -- righteousness porn, Silverman called it -- is a defining characteristic of the modern left. Silverman seems to be just waking up to it:
Its like, if youre not on board, if you say the wrong thing, if you had a tweet once, everyone is, like, throwing the first stone, she continued. Its so odd. Its a perversion. Its really, Look how righteous I am and now Im going to press refresh all day long to see how many likes I get in my righteousness.
Hm. Hey Sarah, sucks, doesnt it? But this is the world you and your pals have made. Actors are bigots for wearing common ....

For some reason Lord of the Flies comes to mind here.
SS is one of the vilest people in the country.
finally- some good news
This from the woman who once said “I hope the Jews DID kill Jesus. I’d do it again in a second.”
Any day she gets slapped down is a good day.
She’s the one who turned Jimmy Kimmel into the jerk he is today.
Schadenfruede (sp)
She may be forgiven, but she will have to do penance. A few months of grandstanding her ethnic self-loathing and debasement, followed by a change in sexual orientation might be sufficient. She’d better get started soon, though, since the price of atonement continues to rise.
And a ‘naught Zee’ salute as well. WTH kind of drugs was he taking? Ain’t no beer goggles strong enough for that.
So he was a different kind of jerk before? :-)
Embrace the SUCK!....................
He was much different when he was on “The Man Show”, so yeah, he probably at least was a different kind of jerk.
Sara: Hoist <—> Petard.
Guess not enough Corola rubbed off on him.
“Comic and progressive zealot Sarah Silverman”
Never heard of her. Guess I’m not missing much.
Well in their ‘defense??’(tongue in cheek), the Virginia LIBs were ready to toss the Gov & AG for ‘black face crimes’ and the LTGOV for ‘sexual misconduct’ and the Rs were just shutting up and letting them go
UNTIL
Some ‘smart arse’ pointed out that the top 3 posts would be replaced with Rs and the inquisition/scourge was discontinued.
I am sure Bloomberg, Soros & Co had some say in this.
Hoisted by her own petard!
***”Hoist with his own petard” is a phrase from a speech in William Shakespeare’s play Hamlet that has become proverbial. The phrase’s meaning is literally that the bomb-maker (a “petard” is a small explosive device) is blown up (”hoisted” off the ground) by his own bomb, and indicates an ironic reversal, or poetic justice.***
