Domestic violence, false imprisonment changes of a girlfriend from January 2020 that were hidden until now.

This union buster is a piece of garbage! Who would have guessed?

      I'm guessing he didn't say that because #MeToo was at its height, Dan Harmon had just gone through his own confession, and R&M's viewership is like 40% women. He almost certainly received coaching about all of this at some point, and probably didn't want to piss off the money god.

          not some official interview with the press.

          Doesn't have to be. A PR consultant's job is to stop you from spilling more gasoline on the fire where you are. They teach you how to behave in public, not just in one interview. Typing cartoon network "pr consultant" into google brought up a lot of linked-in profiles, so they certainly use them.

          Ultimately you're right, we'd have to be psychic to truly understand what he meant in that moment, and we're left to our own modern interpretation. The history of shitting on his employees, abusing a woman, and defending people like Dave Chapelle makes my interpretation very unkind.

          Edit: Sorry if I was playing too fast and loose with editing, simply trying to be clearer. Hope we're all good!

      He did write that 9 years ago and then got richer, more connected, and more powerful after that. It apparently made him worse.
