Who was in the wrong here?
He shouldn't have heckled the set
>>219780016The niggers. Kramer is based.
Both sides>The hecklers for being a nuisance + acting faux offended when called out>Michael Richards for not being able to handle hecklers when he's been doing acting and stand-up since the 70s
>>219780016which one lied?
>>219780016Us, the audience, for judging him so
>>219780016>SHUT UP OR ILL PUT A FORK UP YOUR ASS!!!Based
>>219780498>>219780498This. If it were me in Kramer's situation, I wouldn't have said anything to them. I would have listened to what they had to say, and that's what nobody did.

The braindead, social media-addled masses who actually thought and still think it was a genuine, out-of-nowhere, hateful rant against an innocent black man and not a failed attempt at an edgy bit done in response to a noisy black audience member who got personal after being asked to keep his voice down. It is a disgrace that Richards had his career, reputation and life unjustly ruined all because some asshole happened to be there with a camera phone.
Michael Richards just crashed out over a heckler and the worse sin a comedian can make, he wasn't creative or funny about it. The guy could have ripped the dude a new ass, called him nigger etc and nobody would have cared it it was still comical.Yet all he did was screech nigger and hang from a lamp post.... crashing his entire chance at any sort of post TV show career. Not that he needed one but he clearly wanted it or he would not have been on stage.
>>219781429He was on stage for his own pleasure, not because he wanted or even thought it would lead to some sort of comeback.
>>219780016antisocial niggers cant sit in a room full of people and not make jungle noises every 5 seconds
>>219780016The niggers by default, but Michael Richards is easily flustered. A former colleague of mine visited the Seinfeld set back in the day with a group of friends and Kramer couldn’t get a single line right once there were more and "new" people on set than usual and demanded that they were thrown out.
When you heckle somebody you get whatever abuse you get; racial, ethnic, whatever.Some IRL shitposter going and flinging shit by interrupting some guy's act and then acting offended and over-sensitive when the comedian fires-back at them is, and should always be, laughable.
>>219781429Nah. Nobody would care if he hadn't shown up the next day wanting to apologize. If he had doubled down and called the guy a "nigger" again (who, by the way, definitely was), then everybody would have hailed Kramer as a stand-up hero. Nobody likes hecklers, and even less so a "niggerish" one.
>>219780016People laugh at this now but there will come a time when you say something that was previously well received but in today's society is unspeakable and you will be just as confused as kramer when you get fired
>>219780016He may have gone a little too far in some places. But is that such a crime, really?
haha hey check me out i can say nigger constantly in multiple different contexts across the whole spectrum of my comedic career and i've always gotten away with it
>>219780016Jerry for saying it wasn't funny
>>219782918black guy didn't get his career ended tho
>>219782976
>>219783064Bold of you to assume he had a career in the first place.
>>219783128you act like this is an "epic own" but he probably went back to doing the same thing he always does and being none the worse offwhereas a guy who should have "known better" utterly torpedoed his entire career for the rest of his life over one moment of acting like a niggersuper smart, huh?
>>219783151>torpedoed his entire careerKek. I'm pretty sure "Kramer" can afford an early retirement. Besides, his crash out is probably more memorable than anything else he could have ever done. So I'm convinced that it was absolutely worth it. >he probably went back to doing the same thing he always does and being none the worse offI wouldn't expect anything less from a you know what. Then again, their life expectancy tends to be a bit short, doesn't it? The truth is that nobody really cares about that guy. In 100 years, people will still remember Kramer. But even today, nobody knows the retarded jig's name.
>>219783377>Kek. I'm pretty sure "Kramer" can afford an early retirement.>can only think in terms of $ signsWhich is why you're a miserable poorfag today.Every single actor/writer/creator like this lives to WORK. Having a bank account and sitting around doing nothing is never the win condition of people with ambition and talent.>>219783377>you know what.You can say "nigger" here, soulless reddit coward.None of that is beating the allegations that a previously much more accomplished man than you destroyed himself and now he's just as useless as you.
>>219781018>Listen>"MUP DA DO DIDDA">"BIDDA BE DAT">"BIX NOOD"
>>219783499Fucking kek. Take a load of this guy.His crash out was his magnum opus. Even if he doesn't realize it. No other artist will ever come close to that. Ever.>b-but he destroyed himself and y-you are destroyed too...Kek. You sound personally offended. Almost as if when Kramer said NIGGER you felt like he was talking directly to you. Do you feel that way, anon? When somebody says NIGGER, what do you feel? Do you feel identified? I wonder why is that. Perhaps is it because you are actually a NIGGER? Are you a NIGGER? Are you, anon? Are you a NIGGER? A NIGGER? A NIGGER. YES. You are a NIGGER. YOU ARE A NIGGER. YOU ARE A NIGGER. A NIGGER, LOOK, THERE'S A NIGGER!
>>219783875>Take a load of this guy.Why do you type like a brown person?
>>219781018Based Marylin Manson posting
>>219783499Richards didn't "destroy himself." He tried to do an edgy racial bit that wasn't properly thought out and didn't land right, and unfortunately for him someone was there to record it and spread it across the globe. Without that video the whole event would likely have received little notice and been forgotten. He didn't deserve to have his life ruined over an error in judgement, and it's obvious that the outrage and condemnation that he was subjected to was rooted in the deranged and entirely fake taboo surrounding the word "nigger."
>>219784141>Richards didn't "destroy himself."His career literally ended, retard.
>>219784146Because of the actions of others, retard.
>>219784183very forseeable actions. your logic is retarded. thats like saying, you dont end your job by pissing in your bosses face. no, your boss will end your job by throwing you out hurr durr
>>219783827There are actually some that look like this. Also I've been playing Morrowind a lot and you ruined that loading screen for me.
>>219784183>literally fucking says the words that ruined his life>"he didn't ruin his life"absolute stone cold fucking retarded and it's no surprise you probably don't go outside
>>219784183>jump off a cliff>"not his fault! it wasn't the jump that killed him, it was the landing!"
>>219784401>>219784436Brainwashed faggots. Nigger is just a word and you shouldnt be shocked hearing "nono" words from a comedian just as you wouldn't be shocked hearing them in some random rap song.
>>219784401>say no-no word in jest>it comes out wrong>it gets recorded without your knowledge and is then published on this new thing called "YouTube" that came out the year before>whole word sees it and begins a public lynching>"very forseeable actions"You are braindead cattle. Go suck harvey levin's circumcised cock you faggot.
>>219784472>>219784506Dont be autistic. Even if YOU think there is nothing wrong with saying nigger (you are right), it shouldnt be a surprise that the general public will act extremely outraged about it. Its a tabu. So yes, it is extremely forseeable, that people will shit their pants and will be mad at you. Like you said, its the "no-no word"
He didn't do anything wrong, the whole thing was blown way out of proportion
>>219784605It's just used to target undesirables, plenty of other comedians use the word and aren't funny.
>>219780867>Michael Richards is back… and he’s not playing nice this time>Hecklers(is that what we’re calling them now?) beware, Michael Richards is angrier and even more racist than ever!>Leave your hurt feelings at the door, snowflakes.>NIIIGGGARRR NIGGAAAARRR NIGGGAAAR TOTAL NIGGA DEATH >starts goose stepping on stage
>>219780016the person that recorded it
>>219783002Turns out you can get away with it if you are funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0maYbn8ED-A
>>219785003KINO
>>219781415His career was already dead anyway and the Laugh Factory rant is the only part of Kramer's standup career that anyone remembers. Try reciting any of his material without looking it up.
>>219781415It’s a bit in the same way the autistic sperg has a meltdown in class at a bully and screams “IM GONNA KILL YOU FAGGOT NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER” then tries to say “just kidding!” when he realizes everyone is mocking him. He was clearly pissed off
