Rosenberg said he spoke privately with his wife, his daughter and other close friends before recording the message and said he “didn’t sleep last night.”
If you are new yorker isn’t calling someone a cockroach the same as calling them family.
A City Hall spokesperson said Rosenberg did not contact the mayor directly. “Time will tell how sincere of an apology it is,” Mamdani said on Wednesday.
Yeah, though I have a guess what time will reveal.
Rosenberg has a history of incendiary remarks. He referred to tennis legend Venus Williams as an “animal” and once referred to the U.S. Women’s Olympic soccer team as “juiced-up dykes.” He also mocked singer Kylie Minogue’s breast cancer diagnosis.
Time didn’t stop him from making this new remark. And, hey, when reading that archived article linked in the original post:
He has also called female soccer players “juiced-up dykes,” claimed “faggots play tennis,” and said Palestinians were “stinking animals.”
Hm! Yeah, going to need a lot of time to believe that he means it.
MAGAJew right here.
“removeds play tennis?”
He said “removeds play tennis.” Not sure if that’s a worse slur than dykes or not, but both are shitty things to say.
EDIT: Apparently Lemmy or this instance has a slur filter. It’s the F-word against gay men.
I can see the slur, so maybe it’s lemmy.world
Thanks. Censorship is dumb.
Sounds like he’s angling for some free publicity.
