This. You can't take out-of-context comments or things from dodgy sources and use them as proof that someone is racist or homophobic or sexist or whatever. If a celebrity actually is those things, of course I think they should be held accountable, but those aren't labels to be thrown around at the drop of a hat.

Martin Freeman strikes me as someone who sometimes doesn't think before he speaks, who doesn't always phrase things well, and who has a sense of humour that doesn't always translate into actually being funny, so he can come across as a bit insensitive. I think some of it is cultural too. That dog comment was very clearly a joke but I think that kind of very dry delivery can go over the heads of many Americans, and it was American SJWs I saw taking it as something serious and making a big deal about it being so racist.

nice

do you honestly think a single person was seriously upset & not just trolling? i'm tempted to make martin freeman face (tm) at you, tbh

Do you have many SJWs in your life? Because the ones in mine were genuinely, furiously upset about it. Jumping on perceived racism is serious business!
