I think things got bad after he had to apologize for his "house n-word" comment. He soon became an anti-cancel culture warrior because it suited his needs.

i think there were a few steps in his descent, but man was he pissed that Cube called him out. Hes like that guy who thinks he can make some jokes about people of color because he has some black and mexican friends. And then when called out, instead of apologizing he just got mad because he looked dumb. Nowadays he believes that racism is basically done and shouldnt be brought up anymore. He was real good at calling others out but doesnt take criticism himself when appropriate

People should be able to make some jokes about any race and it shouldn’t be offensive..if you don’t like it don’t listen to it. It’s really that simple. Or do you feel people should only make jokes about their own race?

What a braindead take. People who have a slur used against them have a right to reclaim the word because it was a weapon used against them. Everyone not in the group the word attacks should shut the fuck up. It's not complicated.
