Comedian Ricky Gervais openly mocked celebrities after a group of them released an anti-racism PSA that makes current issues in America all about them.
The PSA (seen below) will actually make you feel physically uncomfortable watching it as Hollywoods best and brightest put their white guilt on display for the world to see.
The two-minute video features celebrities vowing to take responsibility for a host of things they feel have contributed to racism in America.
Every not-so-funny joke, every unfair stereotype, actor Justin Theroux laments.
Racially charged jokes are going to be eliminated. There goes the career of Chris Rock. Start burning tapes of Richard Pryor.
Kristin Bell vowed to take responsibility for every time it was easier to ignore it than to call it out for what it was.

Fine, if they take responsibility, blacks should sue them in civil court. Hollywooders have already admitted liability, its just up to determining quantum.

Ricky Gervais is a Leftist worthy of respect IMO.

Reminds me of the video celebs made when Obozo was elected, where they all pledged their fealty to The One.......................

I’d like to see the version that contains the outtakes.
To: Zenyatta
Hold every one of them in that video to account, ask for progress reports on their Twitter accounts. Humiliate them.
To: Go Gordon
Yep, these celebrities must have done some awful things to blacks in the past.
To: Vision; EEGator; dfwgator
Wonder how many of these ‘celebs’ are doing this just to get brownie points and possibly a job from producers who think like this?....................

They all need to give up their roles to people of color.

His comedy special “Humanity” is merciless to wokeness and the world it inhabits.
But after about an hour, I feel worn out with Gervais.

Fake news. Gervais merely tweeted this about the cringeworthy ad: Terrible lack of diversity in this video,. The rest of the article recycles comments Gervais made in the past about the vacuity of celebrities.

Hollywood is guilty and the only thing they can do to atone for their racist sins is to never make another film again. Ever.
Oh, the humanity. The loss. It’s staggering just to think of it.

The lousy actor lunatics are the hateful Nazi’s, not the police.
They are laughable in their cluelessness.

They were probably making racist jokes and laughing when the camera wasn’t on.
