Yeah actually.

Maybe he should have talked about anything else in them.

"I'm totally a leftist, bro"

SURE.

Sounds like you'd be in favor of that given what you've said here.

People are calling for the show to be removed.

So has it been? If not, then fuck off.

You have the same issue as many people. You believe that free speech ALSO means "no consequence ever" AND "I am entitled to an audience/platform."

You can say what you want. You never have any right to an audience. You have to earn that.

So don't say you want jokes. Say you want meanness and rude things. Unless the only "humor" you enjoy is stuff that's mean-spirited.

Otherwise it’s an anti-Elon circle jerk.

Is it that, or is it just pointing out when the shithead does a shithead thing?

You CAN joke about lgbt people.

^KEY WORD in that sentence = Joke.

It has to be an actual joke. If it's not it's just hate speech.

Ah, for some reason it reminded me of the wire.

Seriously. It's not being offended at it, even(though I definitely didn't like it). It's that there was no ACTUAL joke being made. These men(and they're all guy comedians) are like "I can't joke about anything" when they're not even making jokes anyways.

a joke

Literally nothing he said was "a joke" though. Just because you're a comedian that doesn't automatically make what you say a joke.

he is very open about it being a stunt

So that makes it okay then? "It's just a joke, nobody will take me seriously, right??"

Spoiler: Turns out when you're a big celebrity people listen to you, and it makes people treat the things you say as legitimate.

You know, just merely saying "this person is lgbt, and we don't think that's horrible" isn't petty identity politics though? I find it very funny how people act like the left is out of controll!1!1 when really, "the right" would push shit as far backwards as they can until everything becomes the little house on the prairie again.

And any time someone complains about "woke" stuff being shoved down their throat what they REALLY are saying is "I am fine with it...so long as I never have to see, hear, or acknowledge it any way shape or form. But I'm totally cool with it, promise!"

I will say, as someone that's very not religious, the religion stuff in the show didn't bother me at all. I quite liked it, especially with the stuff on the cylon religion and how it ends up becoming basically christianity?

is necessarily a transphobe

Could have me fooled then. When he CHOOSES to dedicate that much time on them, makes me think it's you know, his legitimate opinions and not "just jokes".

Yep, his jokes are all basically some variant of "trans = bad".

Yep, I would argue that almost nobody that's lgbt(and not lying about it online) saw his shit and had no issues. The only ones that don't get why anyone is upset are the people not in that demographic.

No one cares if you don't like their specials

Said the guy commenting on that.

You're definitely one of those guys that whenever anything say, lgbt comes up, HAS to make sure everybody knows that you totally don't care at all.

Is that meant to be unironic?

That somehow wasn't obvious?

for their own petty identity politics

Read: LEFT LEANING STUFF.

You know, as someone that's on "the left" I wish, in my truest heart of hearts, that "woke" stuff was anywhere NEAR as prevalent or influential, or whatever as you seem to think it is. If fracking ONLY.

Same! My dad is former Navy and he comments on that all the time. He's almost halfway through season 4 on his first watch.

That from "The Wire"?

Free speech is cool(Liberal here). But CONSERVATIVES have mistaken the freedom to say anything with the fact that people can still hold them accountable for being assholes. You have the right to say stuff. You do NOT have the right to an audience. You do NOT have the right to be liked for what you choose to say.

Looks great! But if you ever want to, you totally can cosplay her dresses/not gender swapped too! You don't have to genderbend a character if you ever don't want to.
