Joe Rogan Mocks 'I Take Responsibility' Celebrity Video Against 'Unchecked Racism'
Newsbusters ^ | June 20, 2020 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 06/20/2020 11:22:21 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Few things are as cringeworthy as the June 11 "I Take Responsibility" virtue signalling video featuring a number of white celebrities: Sarah Paulson, Aaron Paul, Kesha, Bethany Joy Lenz, Kristen Bell, Justin Theroux, Debra Messing, Mark Duplass, Bryce Dallas Howard, Julianne Moore, Piper Perabo, Stanley Tucci, Ilana Glazer, and Aly Raisman. In the video the celebrities sanctimoniously vow to "take responsibility" for among other things explaining away "police brutality."

Underneath, the video was explained: "Hollywood stars have partnered with the NAACP for this 'I Take Responsibility' PSA addressing unchecked racism".

Watch the video and you will see why it received only a little over 850 thumbs up votes versus an overwhelming 43,000 plus down votes as of this writing.

The best thing about the dopey "I Take Responsibility" video is that it inspired a horde of hilarious parodies mocking it.

Out of those “celebrities” I recognize two names. I could possibly identify one of those in a line-up.

But then, I’m old.

I suggest they all kill themselves, it's the only way to purify their souls.

These so-called “celebrities” just don’t realize they’re the biggest A-holes at the clown carnival.

There are folks looking into their online activity for anything they can be condemned for.

The Anthony Cumia show had some pretty hard mockery of the video as well:

‘I Take Responsibility’ Celebrity Video Against ‘Unchecked Racism’

Of course they take responsibility as long as they are inside their gated mansions with their armed security guards on patrol.

You’re not alone. I’m only 30 and I recognized only 1 name. But then I don’t go to the movies much.

Wow...I must be getting old. I only barely recognized two of those names, and could not visualize their faces.

Or maybe...I only care about relevant things these days. LOL.
