What have you learned from the "slap heard around the world"... Will Smith/Chris Rock conflict?

Question

Here's mine... *  "Words are like swords", the Bible . That is correct... be careful what you say and how you say it. * Anyone can "snap" in a "New York Second" emotionally when under duress, that's pretty much all we see on the "news".  * Will Smith is very sensitive and hurt about the situation in his relationship.  * Chris Rock is well in control of his emotions (the definition of "cool"), but needs to reconsider offending people directly. Granted, it was a minor slight from a distance. * Will does not have a ring on. And what did you notice about the scenario that changes perspectives ? Here are mine, assumably: * If Chris Rock was  Mike Tyson,  there would have been  no slap ! Power rules! * Hollywood has come to the side of Chris Rock, however,  if he'd made a joke about "fags"  (a word not used anymore but comedians used to use), the media would attack Chris Rock and be glad he was slapped! Perspective changes things... * Race was not called into question because they are both black... duh! If was different races, god help us.  * I became more aware of and to be more considerate with my words towards others, s o it's one reason I apologized to the kids for hurting them with words. It gave me pause to respond to several African americans who were aggravating me as "gentlemen". Words make a difference! Conflict is part of human nature until we are restored emotionally to our creator. That's my opinion...

All it takes is a stupid stunt at the Oscars to make everyone forget the atrocities against women and children being committed by Zelensky. All the Geneva violations, of then dragging their corpses into a movie studio, while filming Ukrainians dressed up (poorly) as Russians, doing staged horrible things to the corpses, then shipping that to the west. (Along with video stolen from 2015 video games. And scenes of parts of Libya getting blown up by Hillary being replayed as locations in Ukraine getting blown up. Because they know most western NPCs will eat it right up, and not question that it looks like a video game.) And that's not even getting into the aerosolized rabies!

But gasp! Chris Rock has poor taste in humor, and Will Smith is a cuck! The world must stop for that instead!

BS That's a lot of what ifs... I learned people like talking bad about others even though they are shit in their own lives. Most of you talk shit on this site. You are no better. At least he has the discipline to live his dream. If you never had the urge to slap someone it is because subconsciously you're weak. You only do that when you feel you can. A 10 year old child would never do what will did. Why? Because they dont feel they can. Dont sit here and act like you have never been angry or never said something hurtful to someone. Lmao you people are pathetic.

I learnt that the “little people” have more influence over all the super famous egos in the room that night.

These glorified celebrities all stood up and clapped, when they thought the mood was in favour of Will smith (the tears probably were a contributing factor)
But then 24 hours later, and a few scrolls down the YouTube comment section, there was a massive shift in the public support of Chris.

Just imagine if less people had supported Chris on the internet. I strongly believe the tables may have levelled up more 50:50 on the issue.

That G@G likes "fluff". I pose a lot of really good questions that if I'm lucky get over single digit responses. But a few days ago I post one about the Will Smith tap that received over 100 responses. And am still getting responses today. Which never happens.

Nothing. Because it's nothing new, it's not like there hasn't be millions of cases of guys hitting each other over shit.

That so many excuses can be uttered on TV without touching the actual issue: toxic masculinity.

Nothing I didn’t already know: that Liberals are hypocrites and condone violence.
