I know Roseanne’s real life politics are dogshit ugly, but my fellow liberals need to calm down over the show. Context matters. The character might be a Trumphead, but she’s also incredibly supportive of her gender-fluid grandson and doesn’t bat an eye at her black granddaughter.

there is a vast, radical different between saying "fuck them forever til they die" / not showing forgiveness VS. giving a person had such radical views a damn national pulpit to normalize them.

Make no mistake, the show was greenlit to court trump voters and tell them they're right to do so and everything's fine. That's the literal underlying point of the show. Every bit of external conflict with the modern (hilary voters, ethnic characters) is just mean to back that.
