Nick Cannon sacked for hate speech

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Nick Cannon was sacked from ViacomCBS for comments he had made recently about antisemitism, but actually, it was also about the things he’d said about white people. Here’s the transcript of some of his podcast: “Melanin is so powerful, and it connects us in a way, that the reason why they fear black … is because the lack that they have of it. When you have a person that has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin, that they know that they will be annihilated. So, therefore, however they got the power, they have the lack of compassion. Melanin comes with compassion, melanin comes with soul. We call it soul. Soul brothers and sisters. That’s the melanin that connects us. So the people that don’t have it, and I’m going to say this carefully, are a little less. When they didn’t have the power of the sun, the sun then started to deteriorate them, so then they’re acting out of fear, they’re acting out of low self-esteem, they’re acting out of a deficiency. So, therefore, the only way that they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, kill … in order to survive. They had to be savages, they had to be barbaric, because they’re in these Nordic mountains, they’re in these rough … environments, so they’re acting as animals. So they’re the ones that are actually closer to animals; they’re the ones that are actually the true savages.”

Later on, Diddy, aka Puff Daddy, tweeted to say Nick ‘should come home to Revolt TV’ which is black owned. He said “ We got your back and love you and what you have done for the culture. We are for our people first!!! For us! By US! Let's go!!!”

I think race relations have gone through the floor in the last few months, and a lot of the rhetoric isn’t solely the far-right either. I can feel us going down a slippery slope of even deeper segregation and even more divisive racial identity politics, but I seriously hope I am wrong, I really do. The world has enough problems right now without different communities hating on one another over things they collectively have no influence or control over. Make love, not war.

It was quite right to sack him.

Racism should be tackled whether it comes from the Right, Left, White or Black!

Freedom of speech. He spoke his mind and I'm sure he knew he was going to get sacked. These are words from someone who's angry,it doesn't mean he's racist. If whote supremacist can say and do as they please why can't a black man speak his mind?

Tbf that's only a snippet of what he said but anything hateful we should educate them instead of simply punishing them. Research it that's exactly what is going to happen his is due to sit down and speak to couple rabbis to discuss points of view and educate him on inconsistencies from what he said. And we need to look at the bigger picture Nick Cannons Class which is his radio station/ YouTube channel that this aired on has had comments similar to this before this is designed to distract us from what is happening around the world especially in America

Ah well, at least we all know what he thinks about Jews and white people. Better blatant than latent

One guy, one time and it's a HUGE issue.

Decades of latent and obvious abuse and it's taken a pandemic to raise the issue of racial disparity and even when it's blatantly obvious (even to a moron), some are still disputing that there is even such a thing as racism.

There are groups you can join to be a racist, BNP etc, yet it's only recenty that national action has been classed as a terror group! When it's been obvious for decades that these groups; however you dress it up, are clubs and memberships for racists.

Jane Elliott to my mind has the right answer.....Walk a mile in my moccasins.

Blue eyed/brown eyed experiment; powerful and to the point.

In the video he sounds fundamentally unintelligent while desperately trying to sound profound. The fact that he quotes Louis Farrakhan explains everything

Glad he was sacked for a start this is the ramblings of a mad man and makes no sense secondly it is nothing more than a direct use of words and position to actually bread hate and separate cultures / colours. This is not a man who should be allowed to speak to people in any way. Any one who is hell bent on devieding should be removed from

What ever power or position they have and face criminal charges.
