Real or no? Will Smith slapped Chris Rock for joking about Jada at the Oscars

As a man who grew up in a family where the women out numbered men, I have defended those women with everything from my hands to bullets. Now that I've matured I can honestly say what will did was pure bitch shit.

His wife was not physically attacked, demeaned nor degraded. A joke was made where I believe chris rock had no idea of her non life threatening condition and simply was joking about her haircut. Will even laughed until he saw her reaction, then he had to save face. And that point is what we need to be discussing.

You know how many black men have lost their lives behind saving face? More specifically their misguided attempts at what they thought was protecting the women around them? Who taught them that's how you protect women.....the women that raised them did. We're so fucked up from lack of true male leadership that we don't understand protecting black women is more than just being an oncall goon. It's about leading, guiding, supporting them and sometimes even saving them from themselves. But that's only for the ones who want that.

This whole shit is stupid. If will would have slapped chris for a joke he made about him, then it would have been "will in his feelings", "will emotional" and "toxic masculinity". Or "black men need to do better". But because the boss sanctioned the hit, none of that gets said. One minute women are equal and just as strong and capable as men and don't need a man, until they want men to harm other men at their whim. Which one is it? This was words, not even words that required a physical attack at that. And for her to allow him to jeopardize his image and possibly be arrested goes to show how much she values him. You can't tell me if she said "babe no don't do it" that he still woulda done it.

Why are we so damn comfortable with the lives and well being of black me being disposable? That's wtf needs to be discussed.

You are the only that gets it

Black men need to stop being crash dummies.
 
Jada never liked the Oscars... She was trying to boycott that one year
 
gat damn. U fr rn?

That pic aint a good look.

The body language is crazy. Body basically screaming "come get this fat wet pussy."

idk thats how i see it.

She ready for the world.

It’s “works” for them

One always gotta give off masculine energy and the other gotta give off feminine energy Lololololol
 
I don't think anyone's really confused. We're just talking past each other.

I think it's pretty universal that some lines shouldn't be crossed when it comes to jokes and that if someone has made it clear they aren't about jokes, they should be left alone. I don't think anyone disagrees on those points.

Where the debate seems to come in is when it comes to strangers and personal whims. Where I'm from, you being a stranger didn't automatically save you from the ridicule. That said strangers had every right to make it known that they weren't with it, and if that was the case they were left alone. However, if someone came out of the gate attacking a person because of a joke, that was considered a bitch move, whether you were friend, foe, or whatever. And it doesn't matter how tough that person is, nobody was going to let one person beat another person down over a joke, so you were better off keeping your hands to yourself. It sounds like that was different for you coming up. That's fine.

What's more relevant to this topic is personal whims though. Because Will and Rock are not strangers to each other, and no one can claim that Will is not a jokey person. So this is really just a case of him not liking a particular joke and responding physically, and again, where I'm from that's considered cornball shit.

Make the bold make sense. Yall joking with a person you don't know but to you its a bitch move if in your opinion they too aggressive in checking you for fucking with them?

That math not mathing.
