“I don't keep in touch with anyone on the show. I've been removed from the process of my life's work." Roseanne told VICE News. ”It's like the worst thing they could have possibly done to me, was to fire me from my own show and let other people write my life story.” WATCH NEXT: Not All Female Candidates Are Running Because of Trump - bit.ly/2CL4jKF

Everyone is all about canceling people. And shunning them. Skipping from one thing to another. It's like we have become a world full of villains/villiness.

I’ve seen many people who are in the public eye, like celebrities, CEOs of companies and politicians who gotten fired or asked to resign due to something they have said on Facebook, Twitter and snap chat. I completely understand why she was fired and I also see her the regret. To be honest, This wasn’t her first racially charged comment. She has made similar comments in the past.

[@MajesticalHonky]

Right, Tech. Should therefore indicate that I wasn't directly responding to anything you actually said but was making a general statement. I'd like you to point where I accused you of anything. Try playing the victim somewhere else.

[@Gandalf47]

When she said "I used to be a go getter, but now I just don't know what I am", the words that she was searching for were, "A has been". She was/is very wealthy and can afford the best psychological/physchiatric help, yet she did not, and self-destructed, then doubled down. She sounds only slightly like she has accepted responsibility, and feels as if she is the victim. That retweet could be interpreted only one way, and it was racist. "I was tired, sleepy, depressed, and I just retweeted something and went back to sleep, and when I woke up, it was all over. Yeah - there are consequences. If she were too depressed to function, then she should have gotten help. No, 'Get out of psych" card for her. Rosanne was a lady who had the talent to turn her pain into a sitcom, then flused it all down the toilet in a nanosecond. I guess "look before you leap" comes to mind. As well as "think before you speak", which just seems so obvious, but difficult to master by some.

So Sagisli - when did she apologize? I admit, I haven't followed this too closely since watching the first reboot of the original show, I thought it was BS and unfunny and stopped watching. But everything I have seen on the subject, never does Rosanne admit being wrong and apologizing for the tweet. She wants to try to explain it, try to show how it wasn't racially motivated, but never does she just admit she was wrong and actually say I...AM....SORRY. Lots of excuses, lots of lame reasoning, but nothing else. I have known plenty of people over the years that were "chemically enhanced" (who doesn't in today's world of "better living through chemistry") or who have suffered from depression and/or other mental issues - they don't run around making comments like this. There are many examples of making acerbic, often-mistaken wrongfully taken jokes. But this? There isn't any basis for it. Even in this interview - her chance to get out there and actually apologize, and yet - she doesn't. She explains how she "wanted to..." and again lots of weak excuses, but no apology, no explanation that makes sense, nothing.

[@alexakaa.charlesross8919]

As long as the apology is sincere and she wants to put in the work, there should be the ability to forgive in this world.

Dear Roseanne, I watched your interview on reel. You talked about your life before Fame n fortune. And all I could do was cry. I married young, had 3 kids, by 20. Had a very lazy husband, who did not do woman's work . And everything around our house was woman's work. That was in the 60'. No personal hair dryers, no disposable anything. I had to work. his job didn't cover half the bills. I quite school half way thru the 9th grade so I had almost no education. I got a job bartending 10 hours a shift. 5 nights a week. I got up at 7 am. Fed and dressed the kids ages: 3, 2, and 1. Sent them out to play. Rolled my hair, ironed my clothes for work, cleaned the kitchen, and the rest of the house. Fed the kids lunch then put them down for a nap. Got my husband up an hour before his work, fed him and by 1 pm he went to work. I showered, got dinner for kids in the fridge for later. Got dressed n did my hair n make up. Took kids n 3 diaper bags to babysitter, and got to work by 4 pm. Worked til 2:15 am. Got home by 2:50 fell into bed. Slept 4 hours. And started all over again. Finally I left lazy husband. 1 less to clean up after. Many times I went crazy. But I had to pull it together. I had no choice. I worked and raised my kids. While you were talking about doing it all by your self and having to work too. I Totally cried like a baby. I knew you knew how insane crazy hard it was. And there's no one to give you a break. I totally forgot about those days, So hearing you, made all the crazy come flooding back. The more you talked, the calmer I became. And I made peace with the crazies. THANK YOU FOR THAT. It felt like a heavy weight had been lifted off my back. Oh yeah. There's one more thing. YOUR SOOO VERY WELCOME. YOU HAVE BRIGHTENED SOOO MANY LIVES , MADE MANY MANY PEOPLE LAUGH N LAUGH N LAUGH. I KNOW THAT FOR A FACT. I AM ONE OF THEM. ALWAYS YOUR FAN, EDWINA PRESTON

BELIEVE! HER POCKETS ARE NICE & DEEP

[@marcwilliams7956]

I agree.

[@CANADIANBELLS]

Right... Because money buys happiness right? It's always been the cure to depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, trauma.... Yah.... Money.... 🙄 Fucking ignorant.

[@lovepet4565]

No way

[@ReluctantGarbageCollector]

@@CANADIANBELLS well hunni it don't cure those but it certainly makes them better. Try being poor with depression, PTSD, etc.

[@jean9421]

It’s so disgusting what those ppl did politicians are correct and and we need more ppl like her speaking the truth

[@TheJayofthejungle]

Anyone who watched Roseanne in her heyday knows that she challenged the status quo and tackled issues related to race and sexuality in her show. She also always had non-white actors in recurring roles when a lot of massive shows did not. She is not racist. This is coming from someone who LOVES seeing racists get exposed for the bigot trash they are. I hate that she got railroaded like this. The new show was very promising.

[@adrianpaul817]

Those are like signs of severe depression and possibly suicidal thoughts... why anyone would wish that upon another human being is so despicable.

[@ccharles848]

Adrian Paul I agree. My heart goes out to her.

[@scottbennett777]

Who is wishing those things upon her?

[@AKBAIANI]

Who wished this now?

[@ToniCarrington]

?????? Who

[@eddiebump1975]

Roseanne is just crazy but she has a heart of gold and she is also a sweetheart. People just make things more than what they are nowadays. God bless you Roseanne!!!

[@belindaphillips2779]

Thanks for being mature and real

[@jennam6255]

Agree with u 100%

[@spiritualwartv]

Rose we all have racist jokes it does mean that our heart is like that I am a black man and I still like you forget the show live your life

[@Miohunter444]

Totally agree!!!!!!!

[@annadraper6]

@@spiritualwartv well everyone DOESNT have racist jokes. Her tweet was disgraceful and inexcusable you seem like a person who is part of the problem.

[@dee.tyson1]

She’s extremely depressed, and I honestly feel bad for what’s happened to her.

[@elenawilliams32]

Did you read what the makers of Ambien said? 'Whilst our medication has some side effects, racism isn't one of them'. Yes, we all have freedom of speech yet why is she feeling sorry for herself ? Actions have consequences. Our kids would be in the principles office faster than lightening if they did racist crap like she has... that tweet wasn't her first. Look up what she said about VJ, the black female politician.

[@dagmarmarionkidwell-to9ub]

I never watched the show after u left

[@cassaranichole7394]

I miss Roseanne. I will watch the older reruns until I die. This generation has gone to hell.

[@technician006]

Cassara Muncy Cool. But you understand that colored people in America have to be constantly exposed to white racism every day they exist. You would never understand because you are white. How do you tell a child that they have to deal with this bullshit their entire life.

[@sueray86]

This damn generation is trash too damn sensitive for me!

[@that_pac123]

This generation's the best one yet, good riddance.

[@cassaranichole7394]

So, black people can't be racist too or am I blind? I'm far from racist but not only white people are racist, sorry. Also, it's the worst yet! My child will be raised the way that I was.. To have a backbone! To turn the other cheek! Most still live with their parents or grandparents, feeling entitled & not doing anything with their lives. Yeah, the best yet. 🤣

“I started smoking” then cuts to a picture of a younger Roseanne smoking 😂😂😂😂 Vice has a sense of humor!

[@summerbunbury3391]

_LMAO_

[@QueenCitystreetviews_22]

Lmaooo been smoking for years lol

[@TheFreshgirl96]

Toni Roxanne right just lying 😂😂😂😂 white people crazy!

[@MyAccountForCommenting]

I really think she meant she started smoking again.

[@TheFreshgirl96]

Myaccountfor Commenting and i really think you have no sense of humor

[@janferreiro-montes1698]

moral of the story: never tweet in the middle of night when waking up

[@Benjamillion]

More like "never start a social media account".

[@koolwill9862]

You already condemned it when you said you weren’t gonna watch it!🤷‍♂️

[@ivangotyokes]

I honestly don't think Roseanne deserved to lose her show. If people chose not to watch it, that's one thing, but it's not like people didn't know her beliefs prior to putting the show back on the air.

[@NewWorldCT]

She wasn't really given a creative choice for that, chief. They took everything over and left her career for dead over a bad tweet.

[@faceOD]

She did deserve it. She deserves never to be on television again. She is bullshit.

[@ClearBucket]

It's just Disney company values, they got rid of James Gunn too.

[@techniqueswithtodd]

Good news is that it's not up to you. Thankfully, anyone that makes silly racist tweets get to pay the price these days.

[@graceelaine698]

It kills me when people say she deserves this because of her silly racist tweet! The hypocrisy is what makes me sick.

[@mtadams2009]

I deleted my Facebook account, I realized I did not want to know what some of my friends and family were truly about. Social media is a cancer on this country in so many ways and has done far more to divide than bring us together. I dont agree with what she said but I am not thinly skinned. I think her punishment was over the top.

[@adfmo2195]

Well said, especially the last about social media... that’s why I’m not on FB, IG or twitter. The only “social media” I have is Pinterest but I don’t talk to anyone on there, and I suppose KZbin but I treat it like a forum more than anything.

[@adfmo2195]

Vocal Majority I don’t think Scott was insinuating for black ppl to “just get over it”. He said her punishment was over the top, which I actually agree with. As a black woman I’ll be the first one to call out racism, as I absolutely believe that open sin deserves open rebuke. ABC should have condemned her comment (which they did) and made her go on their morning shows to explain herself and acknowledge her tasteless comment and apologize for it...the punishment should fit the crime and I don’t believe that a loss of livelihood and being relegated to become a social pariah is warranted.

[@Ran-33]

And when she cried. I saw some people on TV mocking her.

[@SteelRhinoXpress]

If you or i said what roseanne said on twitter, no one would give a shit, because we aren't famous, but when you're famous everything you say gets held under a microscope. that's why famous people are always warned by their agents to not be apart of social media because of that reason.

[@iTzShakenJoE]

Preach to the choir. It’s definitely evil. Why I don’t have Twitter, instagram etc.. it’s pure evil.

[@BamaSquirrel]

I quit watching cable tv and shows due to the lies and propaganda from it all. You did not make a racial slur, the idiots in society are woke idiots following and pandering to narcissists. You have always been a go getter and still is...I’m grateful you are out of that propaganda bs in Hollywood, you are and deserve much better 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️ Stay strong and inspired cuz there’s so many of us who are on your team and will never be in that woke crap ❤️
