Will Smith punches Chris Rock

I read that the point behind it being a 'slap' rather than a punch was entirely cultural.
Something amongst POC where they are saying "You're beneath me actually punching you. You're not man enough for me to punch you. If you were I would punch you. But you're not so I'll slap you like a b***h".
hence why Rock was taken aback because it was so insulting to him personally, without being something he would ever press charges for.
But I dunno. Not my culture. And I read it on Twitter.Leave a comment:

Your sarcastic post above illustrates your persona, you didn't need to respond but you thought you'd try and be clever.
Only a bully would pull a cheap stunt of insulting someone's illness and hide it behind a 'joke'.Leave a comment:

But what defeats me is anyone thinking that making fun of anyone's illness - especially something very personal like alopecia - and using it frame a pathetic in-joke is either funny (it isn't) or clever (it also isn't).Leave a comment:

Do you think they will invite Chris Rock, Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith, Rihanna and Ye (or whatever he's called)?
They should also invite Whoopi to host and put some Jewish actors in the audience.Leave a comment:
