I have not yet formed an opinion about it. But since this is the internet and well formed opinions are completely optional and meaningless, I'll just say that I don't condone violence.
I think it hinges on if Rock knew about Jada's condition.
A lot of the time it's assumed that comedians are omniscient. Sometimes they make a bad joke because they simply aren't aware of specific circumstances or politics.
If Rock knew, he's definitely in the wrong.
No way he knew. Again, it's a bald joke even if he did know. Society is absolutely unsympathetic about male baldness, I hear the jokes everyday (about a guy I work with -- I have hair like Fabio).

Yep. Dat.
There's not enough condoning of violence these days. He should have scalped Chris Rock to teach him about baldness.
At any rate, Will and Jada are kind of messed up people these days. I blame scientology.

I agree. Smith took it too far, I believe.
Team Rock.
Always thought that Wil Smith was overrated and he seems to come across as someone who is a bit too full of themselves.

That actually sounds familiar, like I’ve heard it somewhere before.

Thats gold, man.

It's a family Guy joke. But I'll be damned if it doesn't sound like it could be true.

That’s where I heard it.

Yeah it is indeed choke. He hires migrant workers at Home Depot to choke him in the shower.
Team Rock or Team Jiggy?
I'm Team Rock. It's not his job to keep up on every celebs medical condition. He's a comedian, so far as I am concerned the best alive on the planet.
Do a gender reversal and substitute, say Kurt Russell in his prime, and the joke is just that.
Also, I am pleased this is the number one story above Covid, climate shange, Ukraine etc... lol
