Humor Title: Are Comedians Finally Fighting Back Against the Far Left’s Cultural Clampdown? Are comedians fighting back against the cultural Marxism of the critics? So-called political correctness — which, oddly enough, is a line of ideological adherence which is neither political nor correct — has appeared to be clamping down on the comic stage for quite a while. But there’s recent evidence to suggest those at the mic are trying to break free. Buzzfeed recently scolded Dave Chappelle for “truly vile” jokes about transgender people, Michael Jackson, and the #MeToo movement in his Netflix special Sticks and Stones. Vice told folks to “skip” the performance, and Vanity Fair called the act “stale.” Surely some on the far Left were also none too fond of Dave’s bit on the pro-choice position’s natural conclusion. These days, as noted by The Daily caller, “One wrong word can get you canceled.” Just ask Norm Macdonald: His Tonight Show appearance got shut down over his expressed empathy for Roseanne Barr and Louis C.K. Comedian Nick Di Paolo — who’s politically conservative — told TDC the Left have come all the way ’round: Nick believes initial intentions were good: Joe Rogan pointed out some of the madness — specifically, the Left’s new notion that men and women are athletically the same — in his new video Triggered: In one of Chappelle’s segments, he did an impression of the audience telling a performer if they make a mistake, they’re done: “If you do anything wrong in your life, and I find out about it, I’m gonna try and take everything away from you. … If I find out, you’re ****ing finished.” “That’s what the audience sounds like to me,” he explained. “That’s why I don’t be coming out doing comedy all the time, ‘cause y’all…[are] the worst [people] I’ve ever tried to entertain in my…life.” Other entertainers are echoing the sentiment: — Whitney Cummings (@WhitneyCummings) August 28, 2019 — Chris D'Elia (@chrisdelia) August 28, 2019 Our membership numbers are really growing. pic.twitter.com/DI4OgvBpIX — Jason Howerton (@jason_howerton) September 10, 2019 To me personally, it seems that the whole idea of a joke has kind of gone out the window. It’s supposed to be a light comment not meant to be taken seriously. But boy are there some serious people listening. “This is the worst time ever to be a celebrity,” Dave lamented. “Everyone’s doomed.” da doomp tshhh. -ALEX Poster Comment: "Politics is downstream from culture." - Andrew Breitbart Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest From AoS, some samples of Bill Burr's new 2019 special, giving the SJWs a bad case of the vapors.
#2. To: Tooconservative (#1) Bill Burr is good but, like Jimmy Carr, a little of him goes a long way. My fav favories favories: Anthony Jeselnik, Sebastian Maniscalco, Nate Bargatze and Tom Segura. Plus the late greats Patrice O'Neal and Mitch Hedberg.
#3. To: misterwhite (#2) As with the comic books world, I see the comedians as another front in the Culture War. There are only a few brave big-name comics left. So I'm trying to post their stuff. I doubt that this is Burr's best material. He was more at ease delivering some of his earlier routines. Some of his older stuff was performed better. With a great comedian, delivery and timing and their own love for their material makes such a big difference.

To: Tooconservative (#0) (Edited) Buzzfeed recently scolded Dave Chappelle for “truly vile” jokes about transgender people, Michael Jackson, and the #MeToo movement in his Netflix special Sticks and Stones. Vice told folks to “skip” the performance, and Vanity Fair called the act “stale.” I just watched Chappelle’s latest Stand up concert, Stick & Stones. It was not only brilliant, but funny A F. He knew this routine was gonna piss off the mentally WEAK... hence why he called it Sticks & Stones (May break my bones... but non-PC speech, NEVER HURT ME). I recommend everyone that isn’t a fucking liberal pickle smooching tree hugging thin skinned asshole, to watch it. I found it free, on Netflix’s.
#5. To: GrandIsland (#4) Thank you. I'll definitely watch it on the morrow. I have Netflix, but I don't watch it because of their extreme left turn.
#6. To: WWG1WWA (#5) I don’t watch Netflix either, but I figure Netflix can track how many watch certain shows and I felt it was better to support Chappell on a Obama sucking libtarded network.
#7. To: GrandIsland (#6) Oh yes. Chappell needs to know we have his back.
