The first episode of the reboot of “Roseanne” was by all accounts a huge success when it comes to viewership. However, not everybody sees that as any kind of good news:

There are times when we can consume problematic pop culture, but this is not one of those times. I saw the first two episodes of the “Roseanne” reboot, but that’s all I am going to watch. https://t.co/myDBGkvEyq

MSNBC’s Joy Reid couldn’t agree more:

“There are times when we can consume problematic pop culture, but this is not one of those times.” https://t.co/8AC4TPPglB

Funny, right!?

Here's the difference. Progressives prefer to manufacture problems that never existed to begin with, such as men wanting to be in ladies' rooms, and we rubes in flyover country deal with the fallout from your social experiments. https://t.co/MoEITSixb6

The Left will only sign off on pop culture that validates the Left’s worldview? Big surprise!
