The real fucking offense has nothing to do with Roseanne, but rather Hulu removing all Roseanne content.
Canceling is canceling. It is preventing the new. The same way we prevent Presidents from serving 12 years. But we don't go out of our way to prevent literature or any other content on those presidents from being seen, no matter how bad they were.
The actual Roseanne show is not racist and in fact introduces a black daughter into the family when it clearly doesn't fit into the original show's mold. It literally goes out of its way to be inclusive to a potential black audience.
Furthermore, I assume the cast is paid upfront, and not from royalties. I assume the studio gets those monies.
So we have a clear cut case here of Hulu attempting to erase history in response to potential backlash. The reason is actually irrelevant because the show, old and new, has nothing to do with a tweet. The same thing with the Cosby Show.
"Oh, but it is a private company and they can do what they want.". You fucking tools, that is always how it starts.
