If Will Smith had been present when Rebel Wilson made her joke about Jada’s boyfriends and Will walked up and slapped her, would anyone be defending him or “understanding” his decision to walk on stage and slap a presenter for mentioning your wife? Nope.

If Will Smith assaulted Rebel Wilson for her BAFTA joke, his career would be over and his BAFTA taken away. Assaulting men shouldn’t be shrugged off. He should have be escorted straight out of the venue. Take his Oscar away. #WillSmith #AcademyAwards

No one actually cares that Will Smith slapped Rock. They're just using this situation to justify their (internal) antiblackness and prejudice against black men. Will Smith has been a 'family' icon for years, but suddenly he's a dangerous beast who has to be hidden from society.
— Will Smith did nothing wrong (@ilyadkins) March 30, 2022
So Will Smith smacks a man for insulting his wife and he’s the bad guy but when Ezra Miller chokes somebody out AND assaults someone at a bar we get shit like “damn I hope he’s doing well mentally” stfu. Ya’ll don’t apply this shit to anybody but white celebrities. Be consistent.

There's a disgusting trend of digging up old tweets from murdered black people and if there's any anti-black tweets they've posted. Highlighting them in an effort to say - their deaths were not so tragic or our sympathy should be capped.
I don't agree with Toby Obumseli's comments about Black women but you're all making it seem like it was ok for that blonde white woman to take his life because of it. So why not keep that same energy for Lauren Smith-Fields? Or is it ok when a Black woman bashes Black men?
