So he was just taken out of context in all of those clips?
I didn’t see them all so i can’t say 100% for certain but I’ve heard him use it before but only in the context of discussing the word, I’ll have to watch the footage people are talking about.

Got it thanks mate, I may have to do so myself
"I haven't said it in years"
Nah but it's actually a pretty good apology. It doesn't make the things he said ok but he did take responsibility for his actions, didn't make excuses, explained what his mindset was like then , why it was wrong, hows he changed and it didn't come off as a prewritten pr statement. I don't really think you could ask for a better apology tbh. But again, it doesn't make the f***ed up s*** he said ok.
That planet of the apes thing is really just him calling black people monkeys though, there's no context or reasoning that could defend that. That one is probably gonna be what people spread and post about the most.
It is very funny to hear him say it was 11 years ago like he was a child, 11 years ago he was 43

That’s my thing, like good for you for copping to it and not making excuses but you’re still a grown ass man and should know better. At the same time though, he’s made a career of pushing the envelope and this doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. I actually remember a few of these being shared years back as clips and most are in quoting context, which even so - just don’t f***ing say it like how is that hard to do?
The planet of the apes s*** is a whole other level and again, I don’t like the guy and I’ve made that clear, but that’s just a level of self-righteousness and ignorance that I can never ignore no matter what he says about it down the line.
Wild how many “free thinkers” are using the exact same talking points to defend their guy in response to this on Twitter, though. Almost like it’s an unfalsifiable ideology that he’s cultivated among people who also like to indulge their delusions that they’re onto something the rest of us just aren’t “open minded” enough to figure out.
Same s*** with Jordan Peterson’s stans flooding electronic music Twitter like bees after the Skrillex pic last night. “Maybe open your mind and listen to someone other than the woke mob for once” x100. Guess what? Plenty of us actually did give these guys a listen or two or several over the years and came to their own conclusions. And guess what? Many of us, myself included, are out of patience for this bullshit contrarian wave and just want these idiots to go away. But the s***ty part about nonfalsifiable ideologies is that any consequences become censorship or a perceived attack and anyone who loses their platform only becomes a martyr for the cause.

spotify deleted around 70 episodes today apparently. none of them are even the controversial ones. among the guests deleted:
bill burr
theo von
duncan trussell
also some insanely innocous deletions including mainstream people like moshe kasher
almost all deletions were basically just friends of rogan's and general comedians. weird sweep
Damn what Theo do
Joe Rogan is the man, thank god someone like him has such a big platform.
I found a picture of you and Joe Rogan
weird how in the comments of him apologising for using the n word, its a bunch of verified rogan kiss asses saying he didnt have to apologise and he had no reason to clarify anything
White supremacists defending white supremacists. Who coulda known
tf could possiby be in theo von eps??
Wouldn’t be surprising if guests pulled their episodes for “political reasons”

Dave Chappelle would be friends and headline shows with White Supremacists?
Same with Charlie Murphy?

I can't speak to the rest of the list, but I seriously doubt that Duncan Trussell and Bill Burr requested that their episodes get pulled

Yea I can't see Burr pulling either nor him saying something racial
