How can you be sure it wasn't orchestrated? It appeared staged and scripted to me. Had Smith really slapped him with the force of his 6 ft. 2 inch tall Blackness, the man would have undoubtedly knocked Rock out. Plus, he laughed out loud at the inception of the joke. Then descended the stage with a smirk on his face, and minutes later allowed to accept the highest award in his profession. I think there's something much more cryptic going on here.

1. Consider the Oscar's ratings have been sagging the last few years.

2. What better way to garner worldwide attention than to pit two Black men against each other in the name of violence? So we can do exactly what we're doing. Separating ourselves in two camps.

3. Why is the slap gaining more coverage than the war? (a major distraction) white elites are known for in the playbook. Rock has never been so popular and remains mute on the subject. I could go on but....you get my drift, I think.

Is it just me?🤔
