I don't know. I think that Rock would have preferred to have been victimized by "cancel culture" instead of being slapped on worldwide television.
Not gonna lie, the little bit of caveman in me enjoyed the slap. Rock's reaction reminded me of the 90lb kid in high school who decided to make jokes about a member of the football team and then looked shocked when said member of the football team punched him in the face because it was "just jokes". I am not saying that violence is the answer or the correct way of handling. I am saying that violence is an option.
