But people love to pile on in these times. Mac should have known that.
Maybe he did. Maybe, like was said, he wanted to get fired while getting paid.
The real shitty thing is that they are painting it as misogynistic or sexist. Talent gets rehired elsewhere when its over disagreements with management. That kind of stuff gets you blackballed.
Why is it sexist or mysogynistic? It certainly isn't the content of the post.
It isn't sexist. In order to be sexist it would have had to have been a post made only because she is a woman. I'm sure there are moments in the archive of Mac making fun of a poorly dressed guy. Even further, if any guy showed up to the highest of profile network gigs in a sleeveless shirt, he would be roundly criticzed.
So it was gender neutral.
No, this is sexist simply on the basis of it being a man posting something about a woman. That is an inoperable standard and certainly flies in the face of being considered strong.
You notice that there were some outlets trying to imply racist as well simply because it was an interaction between two races.
So if the post was both race and gender neutral how are we arriving at the accepted narrative that it was sexist and racist?
This is critical theory, in its many forms, playing out right in front of you. Its ASSUMED that any interaction between man and woman or white and black is oppressor v. oppressed so that an offensive statement from the oppressor to the oppressed is de facto sexist/racist.
...and for all you Score employees golf clapping this move, its coming for you as well. Parkins current posture on social justice just reeks of a dilettante. I can almost guarantee you his path from trendy single neighborhood to married in condo/apartment with a doorman to family man living in a safely distant suburb. He hasn't stood a post during this entire time nor lifted a finger for the cause and he won't. If its obvious to me, it will be obvious to the true believers and they will one day boil him in his own good thoughts and prayers.
Sir has plenty of problematic history
Bernstein, fuuuuckk, let's not even get into that.
