The shyt he's been saying is hateful and ignorant. Apparently you agree with him, which is why you are defending his ignorance.
And he "wanted" to leave in the same way Mike Flyn wanted to resign
Colin resigns from Kinda Funny Games effective immediately

at the same time the employer can't be seen as discriminating against someone because of their political views. there's also various laws about being fired for activity outside of work. much of this varies from state to state
if facts and intelligent discourse don't work, what is your solution?
Y'all gotta stop calling this shyt "political views" it's not like we are talking about healthcare spending or tax cuts.
We are talking about people who are calling for the eradication of entire races. That's not politics.
Again people get fired for saying racist stuff everyday.

Can you please give me an example of him being hateful and ignorant?
And they talked about it on the morning show and explained why he's leaving. Colin and Greg live together for goodness sake
Solution to what? ?Interpersonal racism or systematic white supremacy? Bigotry? Prejudice? If discourse and facts worked so much black folks should've been completely free of oppression decades ago with all the scholars that came and went.

This.
Since when was calling for the removal of people by various means, along with stripping folks of their human rights and terrorizing them in their daily life a political view??
I'm tired of this sugar coating of genocide under "politics". shyt is insane.
Who said this?
The joke was either ignorant or hateful depending on if you believe him or not.
His subsequent defense in calling people who didn't like his joke. Humorless sacks of shyt was definitely hateful.
And they also talked about how they were getting increasingly fed up with his desire to spew that nonsense.
Sure they would have wanted him to stfu and stay. He told them he doesn't want to stfu. So they decided it was best for business if he left. They are playing nice about it to try to keep Colin's fans from dropping their shows
When you(Not literally you) equate views such as genocide and tyranny and want to maintain a system of white supremacy which only benefits them as "politics" it becomes dangerous.
It's quite evident since you literally have people like Boogie for example saying "I don't fault him for trying". It's basically trying to equate what that dude was saying as simple politics. This happens all the time.
It was clearly a joke and if he said that on one of there shows it never would have been brought up. I think the whole situation is overblown. I can almost guarantee you each of them has said something worse on there shows.
And they didnt say they were fed up with him they said they didn't agree with and that it was in bad taste. He left because he wanted to be able to say whatever he wanted without them catching the blow back.
Jokes can be ignorant and hateful. And if anybody overblew the situation it was him by lashing out with his little twitter meltdown then quitting his job.
You only think it's "overblown" cause you don't have to deal with that stereotype personally. To the women that have been discriminated against for that very reason, the shyt ain't funny. Especially coming from a business owner and influential personality who presumably one day will have power over the socioeconomic status of women.
You think they would have been totally fine with him staying on and continually saying dumb shyt?
I'm just presenting broader arguments, and how they might be spun. obviously a lot of this can change based on exactly what is said

Yes. They all say dumb shyt all the time. Much dumber than what he said. I've heard jokes about peace and quiet when women leave the room all the time in both real life and in media (especially sitcoms). Never seen this kind of backlash
What backlash?
People saying they didn't like it was all that happened. He played the victim card and went crazy with it. He could have just apologized and moved on.
And people catch flak for sexist jokes all the time.
And I've never heard Greg or any of the other guys crack a similar joke. They were clearly bothered by Colin's joke and the rest of his twitter shenanigans
