Right-wing pundits want revenge for Roseanne’s firing, and they’ve set their sights on, um, Bill Maher
Yesterday, after ABC’s judicious cancellation of Roseanne, far-right conservatives took to Twitter to demand their own sacrifice in this seemingly never-ending culture war. In a classic case of Whataboutism, the MAGA chuds attempted to draw the public’s attention to another famous comedian who has also recently made a joke comparing a public official to an ape. The logic being that if it’s not okay for Roseanne to tweet what she did, then this other, supposedly liberal comedian ought to be fired as well. So, which beloved left-leaning comic have they set their sights on? Well … it’s Bill Maher.
