Senile and blind, if either are accurate. are beyond his control, and I'm not sure why they need to be used as insults to his character here. No need to be ableist while discussing him. Isn't it bad enough that he's a rapist? Couldn't the point have been conveyed just as easily by asking who would pay to see this sex offender tell stories on stage?

"woke" means "sensitive to injustice" so you are saying "no need to be sensitive to injustice"

Yup. . . God forbid we exert the very little effort that it takes to treat the disabled with respect. You're right. No need for that.

It's also a double standard. Those who are willing to poke fun at Cosby's disabilities would not stand for one second of disrespect for madison cawthorn. (Though frankly, he's ALSO been accused of sexual assault. But as with matt gaetz, that's being swept under the rug.)

And let's be frank - whatever meaning "woke" and "cancel culture" had when the terms first started have been obliterated now - all they are now are nonsensical right-wing talking points, used exclusively as pejoratives. Any time one tries to have an actual discussion about something with the right, they just fire off terms like "woke" and "cancel" and "critical race theory" and "fake news" as if yelling that out will justify all their hate. How sad.
