Let Roseanne trend for all of her bigotry, racism and hatred.

Let @ABC see her trending for her bigotry, racism and hatred.

Let @Disney see her trending for her bigotry, racism and hatred.

Let her trend all day.

The cold cruelty in Roseanne ’s tweets should stop you in your tracks. Yes, her show should be canceled or she replaced—but we also must find new & more innovative ways to counter act this creeping racism. It is dangerous & erodes the soul. @therealroseanne @ABCNetwork pic.twitter.com/sXC7GdGJx6

We gotta cancel some house seats, governorships, and an entire presidency.

Win-Win:
If u abhor racism, good news is, Roseanne canceled. Good for @ABCNetwork, @bensherwood & whole ABC Family.

If you’re a racist, the good news is, Roseanne’s now free of corporate restraints & can remain on Twitter spewing any crazy thing she wants https://t.co/o0bAV9XWVn

I’m not shocked at all that @ericbolling tweeted - then deleted - that @therealroseanne should not apologize for her racist @valeriejarrett tweet. Bigots always stick together! Both have blocked me. Ha! pic.twitter.com/sMFEchhmgB

No, not really.

Your show, which is called Roseanne, and reflects her off-screen politics and personality, is not "separate and apart from the opinions and words of one cast member" - particularly when that cast member you refer to is her.

This is aloof at best. https://t.co/2DXrXHfXae

Roseanne's racism got a whole ass show canceled. One must think of all the writers, crew people, and so on who are immediately out of a job. The below the line people you don't hear about. Because she will be just fine financially.
