I see the right wing is drawing equivalence between James Gunn being fired for tweets that are years old and Roseanne being fired for tweets she made *that day*.
And that tweet isn’t a defense of Gunn per se as it is a defense of the forward motion of time and causality.
To summarize the logic: “of course he should be fired for racist things he said a decade ago because I was fired today for saying racist things!”
And I’ll stop talking about this now. I am irked and concerned, though.
