Thats not what i said , i said that we dont know celebs in general....also i didnt understand the Cosby hype , never cared for Cosby show when i was little and prolly would not care for it today Its too bad with fanboy-ism and then we meet them and theyre total jerks , some guy met Cosby back in '69 and Cosby was sour....how about a little gratefulness from these people , doesnt hurt y'know :/ These become much better if you read this in a Paul Bearer voice in your head.

Someone I talked to made a good point. Is it fair calling Murphy "Hollywood slave" when you've spent decades taking endorsements from Jello, Coke (NEW Coke!), and etc? Keep in mind also that Murphy has been largely absent from the mainstream for about the past decade to raise his children, meanwhile Cosby spent that same time period in his life (age 48-58) starring in mutliple TV shows, trash movies, and hawking Coke/Jell-O. While also finding time behind the scenes to prey on multiple women, by the way.

I say this as a white man, so I may be wrong and I sincerely apologise if I am, but wasn’t Cosby’s message over the years essentially “Be proud of being black.... by assimilating with whites and not having your own sense of culture and identity”? Also, hasn’t Cosby long held the stance that poor black people bring it on themselves by not trying to better themselves? Without even factoring in the fact he’s a serial rapist, I really question if he’s the dude who should be calling anyone a “Hollywood Slave” Once again, if I’m off base here I sincerely apologise as I mean no offence to anyone except maybe Cosby. F*** that guy

F*** that guy From what I saw it was a lot of “Pull up your pants!!” ranting. I was never much of a Cosby fan as I got olderish. Plus, I’m also white; so his cranky ass message to young Black people just didn’t apply to me.

How did we get to equivocating Murphy being a dick once to Cosby allegedly raping over 50 women?

F*** that guy To an extent, yes. White America to an extent thought that is what the "perfect black family" would be. Black people supported him in a sense because he was black like OJ where you see the color and know they were successful and hope that happens to you one day. Cosby wanted his stand up to be for everyone which is why he never really went personal, just more so wide strokes with his jokes so white people could understand too which is obviously deliberate because that's how he was going to make his money. So yeah, he can call Eddie and anybody else what they want but while he may be one of the greats, those dudes stand on their own as well. He wants people to worship him and crawl to him for guidance, nah that's not happening. You f***ed up and you paid the price.

Dark Knight Rises scene:
Cosby (as Daggett): I paved the way for your career.
Eddie Murphy (as Bane): And this gives you power over me?

Bill Cosby was the patron saint of respectability politics. Bill Cosby's respectability politics remind me paedophile kids TV presenter Jimmy Saville doing a lot of charity work so he could get close to the right people, not just kids but people in positions of power. Like Cosby, he got himself so well connected he was in a place where anyone who accused him of anything would be shot down as trying to take down a saintly pillar of the establishment who wants nothing more than to help others live a moral life, and that enabled him to keep on preying on his victims, even though rumours have long circulated among people who actually worked in his field. It's the same crap that enabled abusive members of the clergy to go on doing what they've done for so long, come to think of it.

Because we told Julie Dywer the camera adds ten pounds and she drowned?

Cosby acting like he gave Murphy his career as if the latter didn't emulate Pryor and Redd Foxx way more especially since they were Cosby's contemporaries&in Foxx's case even preceded him.
