Rappaport vs. Grande? If anyone cares...

I think this tweet of his should have ended it all right then and there...it's perfect:

I’m proud to say that none of that made any sense to me.

Smart guy like you....pffffttt......I don't buy it.

Need me to spell it out?

OK.

Michael Rapaport is a known Trump basher (who isn't these days)...he bashed Kellyanne Conway, Laura Ingraham, etc. etc....a bunch of right wing women...he bashed them in unflattering and most likely (the left would consider), SEXIST and MISOGYNISTIC ways...BUT he didn't take heat for it on social media (surprise), because he was bashing on Trump and right-wing women.

But when he bashed on Ariana Grande's looks (she, NOT a right-winger), he took a shitstorm of heat for being politically incorrect, sexist, misogynist, etc. etc.

Pretty easy to understand, but I spelled it out for you anyway.

I'm sure you'll come back and tell me you still don't understand, and that is ok.

Why do you assume that anyone would know or care that Mr. Rappaport is a "known Trump basher"? I know hcap and E.Trav. are well known Trump bashers. In the PA universe that is. Self absorbed minor league celebrities,not so much.

What is the point of this post? (As is frequently asked by those on the right when someone posts something unflattering about someone or something on the right).

If it's not CJ of TLG, Twitter is a complete waste of time.
Mass outlet for the brainless.
People we used to lock away in basements and attics now have a microphone to the world.

Total waste of time by 98% who use it.

Because it's an integral part of the story this topic is based upon.

I guess I'm the slow one...can't be everyone else, right?

So.. your point is you're wondering why there's blow back from insulting a sexy pop superstar who has a trillion social media followers across the world, compared to insulting Trump and Laura Ingraham..?

Really?

I find it quite amusing and at the same time sad, when Lefties feel the need to conveniently play dumb, when faced with hypocrisy...or, could it be that Ocasio-Cortez 'moments' are becoming contagious?

Rappaport said it all in the tweet I reproduced here.

"little Hipster Fake Pussy Power Hat Wearing MoFo’s"

Nothing left to say, except for the willfully ignorant who like to troll me.

Thanks. I didn’t know who that Rappaport fellow was but have since recognized him as a character on Justify. Good actor.
I saw that Grande girl’s name associated with a SNL guy. I don’t know what she does but she’s kinda cute so I can’t imagine what he said that was derogatory.

Guess if one doesn’t care about celebrities then this stuff is meaningless, white noise.

Ariana Grande is a singer/actress, with a large teenage female following (what used to be called teenyboppers).Unfortunately, she is best known for headlining the concert in Manchester, England about 18 months ago in which an Islamic terrorist set off a bomb while people were exiting the show, killing and injuring scores of people

He also took a lot of heat from ESPN over his tweet about Roy Bellamy. They had an interesting back and forth.
