What upsets me the most is, as Colbert mentions, in the end nobody could give two shits about the original story about the "Redskins Foundation." People were too busy looking for something to be upset about. Reading Suey Park's twitter feed was so upsetting. She couldn't, and can't, own up to the fact that she made a mistake and blew things out of proportion, instead using this as a moment to play victim because the internet is being mean to her.
This is an everyday reality for most people in Texas. When will everyone realize that being quick to take offense not only puts you at a social disadvantage, it actually makes you psychologically weak/vulnerable? I'm not saying "don't give a fuck about anything!", just... chill out a bit, mannnnn. :)People were too busy looking for something to be upset about.
Yeah that was the most poignant statement. What about what the satire was actually poking fun at originally? "I'm donating all the proceeds to the Redskins Foundation, because I haven't heard shit about that". Classic Colbert though. I really enjoyed this episode.
