The Roseanne reboot was a chip off of the old Archie Bunker block; a cynical attempt to sanitize/humanize Trumpism via satire. Kudos to @ABC for changing course and pulling the plug on hatred in its “comedic” form. #MAGA #ArchieBunkerSyndrome
Whether we want to admit it or not, bigotry sells very well in America. Roseanne’s show is being cancelled for the exact same reason it was rebooted during the Trump era. She, like Trump, gives voice to vitriol, and there’s a captive Republican audience that can’t wait to buy it.
Ultimately the @GOP base just wants to kick back, turn on the TV and see/hear nothing but White faces repeating the same hateful shit they believe on the inside. It’s what glues them to @FoxNews and endears them to the Donald Trump shit show we’re watching unfold every day.
