the many problematic things terry crews has said — a thread
since terry has gone and done it A-fuckin-GAIN i thought i'd finally make this thread of all the times he's been some sorta phobic bc there are many examples and there are still some people who aren't caught up on everything so here we go
okay so let's start in april 2017 with him being transphobic!! its still up on his facebook
he completely missed the mark of what transracial means in comparison to transgender and continued to defend this and even a year later when it was brought up he didnt apologise

next up is this bad boy which is inherently homophobic and misogynistic towards LGBTQ+ couples raising kids and single mothers https://twitter.com/terrycrews/status/1101571722866700288?s=20
this comment is what really upset people, to say that if a child doesn't have a dad they will be malnourished which is honestly stupid as shit
this was later deleted, saying it was 'poorly worded'

not even a month later, even after co-star stephanie beatriz talked to him about why what he said was wrong, he tweeted this: https://twitter.com/terrycrews/status/1112506219812446208?s=20
it just proved how half-assed his apology was!! it was still something he obviously believed, especially with the joking running away gif posted underneath.
not only that, he responded to a fan with this, essentially digging his own grave!! https://twitter.com/terrycrews/status/1112535193473052673?s=20

earlier this year, terry defended AGT after gabrielle union was fired from the show, where she then exposed racists and sexist incidents happening behind the scenes.
when terry was asked about this, he said: “I can’t speak for sexism because I’m not a woman, but I can speak on any racism comments. That was never my experience.”
by not defending gabrielle, he basically invalidated her experience on the show implying she must be wrong since it wasn't his experience.
he tweeted this after the backlash he recieved from his statement, which has been deleted now, not taking responsibility for what he said

not only did he choose not to stand with gabrielle so he could keep his hosting job, these comments hurt many people and while he did apologise for his statements, looking back on other examples makes this apology not so trustworthy.
