Comedy isn’t just about making people laugh—it’s about making them think.

comedy is the great equalizer your job is to shake things up the oldfashioned women oh god you know the ones with wombs that poking of the bear is the point of what we do and we need it more than ever of all the hiring for all the new pilots the main focus is going to be diversity diversity not the best pilots you can find when they do come to my shows and they go like this okay I thought it was just me your job is to say things that people think but would never dare say cuz they might get fired i actually like trans women better than I like regular women they're great they're like dudes people now starting to think like "Oh saying things is a type of violence." You're like "No it's not." They like to be enraged and that switches into self-righteous indignation i started to notice certain topics being called offlimits you can't talk about race gender if you're white you can't talk about this comedy got a lot softer the threat of cancellation is very real abc cancels Roseanne after a racist tweet shane Gillis got fired over jokes he made in the past when you eliminate free speech you're not only stopping somebody's right to speak you're also stopping somebody's right to listen people are getting fed up now with cancel culture comedians are a part of that movement to push back against that i think there's going to be a renaissance if something is so tyrannical and authoritarian the way to knock it down is to laugh at it [Music]
