There's a lot of overreaction in this thread.

That term "castrato" is funny, though. I hadn't heard that before.

Id agree that this is more about culture than it is standup specifically - but to say there’s an overreaction when top comedians vocally believe this is a problem, while pointing out that you can’t do certain comedy on college campuses, most networks and in Hollywood, seems to be a bit of an issue.

Not being able to do certain comedy in certain places has always been an issue. Since the dawn of time, comedians will do the same act in two different places and get totally different reactions.

 

This is mostly an overreaction in response to the overreaction, if you know what I mean.

Parler is available for any dweeb to download.

 

Trump's "social media platform" (blog, but whatever) is available for any dweeb to read.

You can’t be this dense to not understand what he’s referencing.... I mean, you really can’t... can you?

I hesitate to respond since you have proven you will deliberately lie about what I write, but if you read my post it says specifically that it may kill comedians with little talent that have to rely on cheap shots to try and be funny.  Murray and Rock are great comedians, and they write material that points to the absurdity of racial bias and such. 

 

By the way, what you call facts?  Those  are your opinions.  There's a difference.  

Expand  

 

Fair enough--it's my opinion that it's a fact that comedians like Eddie Murphy and Chris Rock often use derogatory, edgy, sexist and insensitive language and have become wildly popular in large part because of it.  I may be different than you, but when I heard Eddie Murphy running on about women "throwing the p@ssy" at him, I saw no great societal message in it, I just saw a brilliant guy who developed, worked and likely focus-grouped a series of lines and words designed to maximize laughter in an attempt to maximize revenue.  Interestingly, or not, I didn't like that particular bit when I saw him live, I thought it was vulgar and tasteless (yeah, I said it) true though it may have been for EM, and felt the same when Trump's secret audio recording about the same subject was released later on. 

 

I deleted my post shortly after sharing, as I saw that you had shared additional information regarding people like Pryor, Carlin and Hicks.  It's true what you said above, you mentioned comedians and cheap shots...and also made the point about the bigots who might find that sort of humor funny.  My point simply was that people can laugh at a variety of topics that you might find funny without being bigots...and many do.  In fact, I'd go so far as to say most can on some level.  That explains the popularity of movies like The Hangover and Detroit-born actor Ken Jeong portraying exceptionally effeminate International Criminal Leslie Chow and his wildly funny butchering of "Quid Pro Quo, Douchebag".   

 

Anyways, follow your heart on whether or not to reply to me in the future.  I enjoy interacting with you in spite of--my opinion here--the fact that you have some fairly large blind spots when it comes to discussing certain issues that teeters on hypocrisy.

Is Parler cancelled?

i guess you can.

 

so a monopoly used its power to destroy its competition under false pretenses and because it ultimately rebuilt itself from the ground up...

 

nevermind, its a waste of time.

like i said "its" a waste of time. 

 

the fact you have no clue what the f- im talking about means you already get to much of your information on message boards.
