The ‘Roseanne’ Reboot Is Funny. I’m Not Going to Keep Watching.
The New York Times ^ | March 29, 2018 | Roxane Gay

Posted on 03/31/2018 3:31:53 AM PDT by Trump20162020

This fictional family, and the show’s very real creator, are further normalizing Trump and his warped, harmful political ideologies. There are times when we can consume problematic pop culture, but this is not one of those times. I saw the first two episodes of the “Roseanne” reboot, but that’s all I am going to watch. It’s a small line to draw, but it’s a start.

“Trump and his warped, harmful political ideologies”

Name me one b*tch. Don’t you love how the left just sticks in these little digs and they never ever back it up with one shred of an example? It’s like saying “Today bank robber and drug dealer Chuck Norris...” Wait, what? Back up there.

When you are reared in, conditioned to and steeped in communist propaganda, American culture is warped and harmful.

Very predictable that the Left would make a new target of her. Get ready for the hate.

“Normalizing Trump”.

Yeah, accepting the reality that he won the election and it’s only been a year and a half since he won his (first) 4-year term.

The writer has a problem with normalcy and reality.

warped, harmful political ideologies
******************************************************
Not really. Normal beneficial family friendly policies.

The really warped and damaging political ideologies would be the Satanic policies of the tyrannical Marxist/Commies of her fellow travelers trying to destroy the family and confuse children and promote deviance throughout our country.

The media, the Hollywood “stars” and their blind pig followers all say the same thing. “Trump is dangerous!”.

“Why do you say that?”

“Because he is.”

“His foreign policy is crazy!”

“What is his foreign policy?”

“It’s a crazy foreign policy!”

“I hate Trump!”

“Why?”

“Uh, uh, because he’s stupid.”

Everyday people think the way celebrities tell them to think. Celebrities hate Trump because he stopped Hillary.

More than anything, the Left is scared that Roseanne is going to "normalize" Trump and the people who voted for him.

Trump voters are supposed to look like this:

Not this:

Just wow. It’s one reason I dumped TV in 1997. But my version would be that it normalizes the warped values of the left. And in ‘97 they were just getting started.

I empathize with the author’s feelings, but I feel a bit like a jew reading an article where a Nazi is lamenting a TV show that presents Jews as equal to the rest of us.

i.e. the sentiment is real, and I get it. But the source, in this case, is their wicked human nature.

To be clear, I mean my version of what she said would be, at the time I dumped TV, and what it did.

Hilarioius comments section as readers vie to express disdain for Roseanne and Trump voters. An avalanche of dumb cliches.
