Wild that George and Elaine are the best humans of those four when they were arguably the worst in the show. Fuck Jerry, fuck Michael Richards, and even though he’s otherwise been ok fuck Larry for the crytpo shilling

I’ve posted this elsewhere, I don’t think Richards is a piece of shit like Seinfeld.

The Michael Richards incident was a literal one time event, albeit a terrible one. There were zero instances before and zero instances after that suggest Richards is racist. Everything since then Michaels has done suggests he’s exceedingly remorseful over it.

I am not excusing it in the least, but I don’t think it’s even close to fair to compare him to someone currently supporting the genocide in Palestine.

  Is it even close to publicly supporting a genocide? Hell no. Is it something a non-racist person would ever even think to say? Also hell no.

    So you excuse Seinfeld here, but still hold Richards 100% accountable?

    Also a hell no. In fact what are you talking about? What did I say that you feel implied that?

    Nah, they are saying Seinfeld is excusing a genocide.

  Richards just did a bad thing once trying to shut down a heckler and it backfired hard. People just don’t want to ever forgive.
