Bubble Gang Rape Jokes And Vice Ganda

Vice Ganda Apologized

I'm not a fan of Vice Ganda and I'm also not a big fan of his style of humor but I think it's time for everyone to stop attacking him. Yes, he did make a mistake but he already apologized for it. He learned his lesson and, hopefully, he'll never used rape as a material for his jokes in the future.

Everyone Makes Mistakes

I make mistakes, you make mistakes, everyone makes mistakes because no one in this world is perfect. If we make a mistake then we must recognize it, admit to it and apologize for it. Did Vice Ganda recognized his mistake? I think he did. Did he admit it? I think so. Did he apologized for it? Yes.

(Bubble Gang and GMA 7 also made a mistake when they allowed this rape gag to be aired on national television.)

Mistakes make us human. Mistakes also make us grow into better human beings because we learn from our mistakes. Did Vice Ganda learned from his mistake? I think so because, underneath that comic persona is a very intelligent individual. He definitely learned something from this issue. Who wouldn't?

Bubble Gang Rape Jokes

As I've said, everyone makes mistakes and the same is true for GMA 7 and its Bubble Gang gag show. In the past, Bubble Gang had used rape as a material in its gags as well (see video below).

Was it a mistake for GMA 7 and Bubble Gang to air such an insensitive gag? Yes. Did they learned from it? Yes, because they stopped using rape as a material for their gags.

Bubble Gang and GMA 7 were very lucky because, when they did these rape jokes, the country didn't react to it as much as it did with the Vice Ganda Rape Joke.

Forgive And Move On

Vice Ganda already made a public apology and I believe it was sincere enough to merit forgiveness from everyone whom he offended. Forgive and move on, that's the best thing everyone can do right now.
