Philanthropic or not, it still counts against him.
What counts against him? people who cannot tell a joke apart. Go and watch George carlin or Dave Chappell they have said way way worse things than him and smart people know it's all jokes. All these Social justice Warriors and highly sensitive people should please calm down, the guy made a joke. Only an idiot will be influenced by that and for crying out loud he apologized.

I did not see where he said he was fired, do you have concrete evidence or just what bloggers think?

You cannot 'possess' human beings anymore. At least not legally, anyways. Not since the abolition of slavery.

Basketmouth's problem is embededd within the bizarre mentality he exhibited in that statement he made. Same mentality that led him to make the disastrous rape joke.

He needs to change his mentality....
Did you bother to read his post? If you do, then you will know all you said is uncalled for.

He is not a programmer or he would have known the idea of using unlikely characters for a person to type to generate smileys.

It's not a fun fact to a programmer.

Africans are known for pulling ourselves down no matter wat, this joke is nothing to be offensive about, I just see a purposeful action to pull u down.

Re: Basketmouth Addresses His Rape Joke And The EU Ambassadorial Controversy by Nobody: 11:24am On Dec 03, 2019
they will probably give it back to him. this is not about being black or african or nigerian .

same thing happened to james gunn last year. he is back on track now



https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/jul/20/guardians-of-the-galaxy-james-gunn-fired

James Gunn has been fired as director of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise after a series of offensive tweets have resurfaced.

The 51-year-old film-maker had been behind the first two Marvel hits and was working on the script for the third. Tweets of his from 2008 and 2009 were discovered by the conservative site the Daily Caller that made light of rape, pedophilia, 9/11 and the Holocaust. Gunn has been vocal in his criticism of Donald Trump, tweeting last year that the US is in “a national crisis with an incompetent president”.

In one of the resurfaced tweets, Gunn wrote: “The best thing about being raped is when you’re done being raped and it’s like ‘whew this feels great, not being raped!’”

Alan Horn, the Walt Disney studios chairman, said in a statement: “The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him.”

grow up and leave that shit behind - apologize when you are called out for it

see bros bitches aint shit but hoez and tricks

Basketmouth has apologised, yet some miscreants on Nairaland were busy defending him.

That is the difference between a man who has something to lose and one with no name or brand to protect. The former knows when to sheath his sword, the latter is a blabbermouth whose ego will be his greatest undoing.

BM, sorry o. I wish you well



i guess you just enjoy throwing unnecessary shadies n jab, if you understand he apologized jus to save his brand or becos he has something to lose then ur sense should av told you why some guys/fans are defending him.
If you are mature & exposed by now yu shuld av known, an apology does not denote you are wrong, esp. when there is something to gain or save. hw people handle situations in a formal settings is quiet different frm on same people will handle similar situation in an informal settings. madam shield ur sword.
a joke can never be wrong becos there is no right joke.

See the way the joke he made is haunting him now.

More reason why saying less things can be good at times.
But like someone clearly mentioned, It's his talk that got him this far.

So no worries, he'll get another deal

Someone said. My gift is my curse.

Not at all , he was not guided with his utterances. If he knows how rape affects women he wouldn't joke with it in that man , he can however learn from this and vet his jokes before he says them , people have been killed for jokes which they thought were harmless.

Serves him right, this should serve as a deterrent to other comedians who make homophobic jokes thinking it's funny, one day you might be denied entrance to even the tiniest country you could imagine

There is nothing wrong with the joke. People are just too sensitive these days.
Okay let's say
Don't joke with rape
Don't joke with corruption
Don't joke with stealing
Don't joke with rebellion

then what jokes will comedians tell? Because all these things are equally bad. People are just waiting for any opportunity to bring others down that is what it is.

Is his joke worse than Trump saying "Grab them by the pu**y" or is it worse than Nigeria legalizing sleeping with minors from 11 years. But people always find a way to bring down a successful person not because he is wrong but because they are jealous and too sensitive.

No one is hating its called accountability. Holding people accountable for what they are saying. I understand the term accountability is nonexistent in that shithole. Rape is nothing to you people now. Rape, murder and all forms of opression is nothing to you yet you wonder why your country is the way it is.

Rape is something, murder is something but a joke is a joke. If I wrote a Novel about rape will you come and arrest me for the behavior of the characters I created? No! Because it is art and not reality. There is a huge difference between advocating for rape and making a joke. What Trump said is worse than the joke basketmouth made and he even apologized what the fuss all about?

Quinn Poco, say something. Society has become very sensitive. The guy just made a joke which is not an advocacy for rape of any kind. It's art and not reality, if he asked people to go and rape someone then it is wrong and the sad thing is that the joke is even reflective of our society. He has apologized, let's allow him to move on biko. Stop bring up people's past and disallowing them from moving forward, what most people wrote in facebook in 2014 if they saw it today they wouldn't even believe they wrote it.

What is the definition of a joke?

Even if you claim it wasn't a joke, he was informing the world of what an average Nigeria man thinks after spending little money on a woman.
