Liz Warren’s full name is Elizabeth War On Rich White Men

That's a staple of the left these days. Pretending absolute legends like Dave Chappelle aren't funny and then pointing to some leftist hack shitting out rejected Bill Maher one-liners as true comedy.

I do find it genuinely interesting that when I was growing up there was no funny conservatives, no Dennis Miller was not funny, and now the tide is quickly reversing.

Edit: Maybe reversing isn't quite the right word, Chappelle is obviously not conservative, but the more to the left you are in general the less funny you are and the less you can appreciate actual comedy.

The only time political comedy is funny is when its grotesquely offensive.

Didn't Todd Phillips bow out of directing Borat soon after they started doing their stunts in the old South and the locals responded with typical Southern charm by threatening to shoot the cast and crew.

We have a number of Leftists right here on the forum. Which of us pretends that Chappelle isn't funny?

I'll hang up and listen to your answer.

If WaitingforRuffcorn posted a Chapelle's skit nearly verbatim on this board it would be met with pretty universal derision. You certily wouldn't be laughing.

Its more about the who is saying than the what is being is said. Spiking some white dude in the internet doesn't make you look like nearly the stick in the mud that pondering the problematic nature of Chapelle does.

Such vitriol. Seriously, wtf is wrong with people?

That’s not true. I would laugh my ass off at WFR saying “I do not believe these motherfuckers”

So Julie, who may or may not post here regularly, is the only one who carries the sjw mantle and refuses to laugh at Chappelle.


Got it.

Saying you laugh a comedy special is a pretty low standard. Basically it's saying I agree with challenging certain thoughts, but only if it's done by a black comedian during a bit. If anyone asked the same thing in a serious way then they violating some new truth.

Don't be a douche. Comedians touching on taboo topics or satirizing some portion of society is absolutely different than some bigot spewing the exact same words.

This is the problem. You immediately declare anyone who questions as a bigot, while also name calling. The reason his jokes on Trans people work is that he’s pointing out hypocrisy, and that we don’t really know what it is just yet.

A man putting on a dress and saying you are a woman might mean you has a disorder. Or maybe you are just seeking attention.

This would be a top-tier B&B drop, just cutting off bad callers with "uhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
