Martyr, Icon, Activist, Brilliant Writer & Orator, those are the words I’d use to speak of him. And let’s be clear that the hatred you speak of was imposed on him by a pretty specific group of people. I get where you’re going with this but I prefer reverence. But I appreciate your comment and bringing attention back to an issue that’s still ongoing.

@user-my1yp1ky2k Gallup polls taken throughout the early 60's consistently show public approval on King as being around a 50/50 split at the best of times. By 1966 63% of Americans said they viewed him unfavorably. Now I totallt understand preferring reverence and not wanting to focus on the negative. But that very negativity and hatred is what he was fighting against in the first place. To undersell that hatred is to undersell his struggle, which you could argue does more to "diminish" the man's legacy than honor it.

Amy Schumer saying she came from being dirt poor when she grew up in manhattan is honestly so classicist. She’s from the UPPER EAST SIDE. After her parents divorced she moved to Long Island with her mom (also an affluent area) like I’m not saying she never struggled, but as someone who did come from poverty i think she’s wildly out of touch.

I can't think of another public figure (aside from politicians) that angers me more than Amy Schumer. I've always been confused how she became famous. She went from stealing jokes and using racial and gender stereotypes for laughs, to imo infantilizing her husband after his autism diagnosis to even more blatant racism and Islamophobia. She has always managed to deflect any valid criticism of her actions by bringing it back to body shaming or misogyny. The self victimization never stops with her.

Perhaps a good topic for a follow-up video would be how ableist Amy Schumer is. Since her husband was diagnosed autistic, she’s spread an incalculable amount of misinformation regarding the autistic neurotype and the Autistic community and hired Michael Cera (who has never identified as autistic) to play her autistic husband in her “Life & Beth” TV series. Additionally, the way she speaks about her husband is like someone speaking about a pet. It’s truly revolting.

24:30 It's also wild how everyone's vocal memory of MLK doesn't include his assassination, which, arguably, underlines the flaws of the non-violent protests. One of which is that you can be as peaceful as you can but if the people in power think you're a nuisance it won't save you.

I'm not all too familiar with American politics, so it might just be me. But I see some similarities with the uncritical praise Schumer gets for her "resilience" and "material success" and the praise people like Trump and Musk get from their supporters. Which if I'm getting right, is essentially what "white feminism" strives for? To simply say that women can be the boot as well?
@CorwinFound
Ай бұрын
Yeah, I think you are right. I think you see it commonly in people that experience one very specific form of oppression, but outside of that have a lot of privilege. Schumer is a good example. She has absolutely experienced misogyny. She's also white, cishet, able-bodied and affluent. Rather than admit she experiences a mixture of privilege/unprivilege, she focuses exclusively on the one side and fails to use those privileges to help others who don't. I've noticed it more recently with cis, gay, white men. Certainly not the majority or even large minority, but it's definitely out there. It can lead to a "burn the bridges down behind me" attitude. A specific subset of gay men have seen an apparent growth of acceptance and see others in the queer community as threatening that very shallow social success. Forgetting conveniently how much of that progress came from the sweat, tears, and actual blood of those "less normal" queer folk. Sorry for the wall of text. Your words just sparked thoughts. Thank you!
The thing about the personal being political is that it was (and still very much is) a tenant of BLACK feminist theory. It posits that our personal experiences with misogynoir can be connected to wider political systems and institutions of oppression. Black women connect and build community and personal relationships with each other by connecting over these personal experiences with racism and misogyny in order to find safe spaces among each other. White feminism's "understanding" of that is just the usual appropriation and commodification of ideas that aren't organic to it's practices.

The Rosie the Riveter thing bothers me in a more insidious way than her racism blatantly infuriates me. I feel like she's co-opting Rosie the Riveter... I think because I associate that image with the working class. I kinda wonder if Amy even knows what a riveter is.
I won't pretend i never laughed at an Amy Schumer bit or joke. But I love Chappelle's show too. I don't like anyone's jokes enough to stand for any transphobic, homophobic, racist, Zionist nonsense.
I personally don't think she ever did anything good for the feminist movement, and she just always seemed out of touch. And no, it's not good to "hold a lot of nuance" for someone who's literally defending a genocide taking place and she won't admit Israel is doing it.
maia was such a perfect guest to discuss this topic. her perspective and takes on culture and politics are always refreshing.
Hearing the bastardized 'First They Came' my first thought was that I didnt remember her doing anything beyond like black square posting and roasting Crowder, so knowing that I'm not alone in seeing this lack of actual support while she was being so patronizing, was a trip.
49:58 My niece has the EXACT book youre referencing omfg it mentions like "margaret took milk from children, and some people didnt like that"

One thing I'm surprised about which wasn't mentioned about the comic she posted was how obviously AI generated it was. Idk if she made or got it from somewhere else, but it doesn't surprise me that she posted art that was just as shit as her message.
This was one of the most intelligent, timely, and nuanced discourses I've seen on YT in quite a while! Bravo! As a Black woman, I have always found Amy exactly what you described: sometimes very funny and a bit of a trailblazer in her early career, but also punching down from her privileged perch at folks like myself who have to negotiate various -isms *daily*! She is so ensconced in the establishment (much like Seinfeld) that she gets to be a bigot without much consequence, though I agree that the tides are beginning to turn. I so agree that she's the poster girl for white feminism and all the ills therein.

To clarify, it isn't the Jewish government, nor is it the government of all or even the majority of Jews. It's a government that's weaponized Judaism and is committing genocide in our name, but many Jews don't consider it our government. There are plenty of zionist jews, to be sure, and it's a deeply troubling reality, but I think it's important to differentiate between the government that's trying to be a jewish ethnostate and the actual people of Judaism. We're such a diverse people, with such a diverse array of relationships to this geopolitical moment, and screw the state of Israel for stealing our name, iconography, and identity.

It's such a helpful lens sometimes... as long as you realize that everyone can occupy any space and switches between roles moment to moment, but think they are occupying a different role than their behavior indicates. The empowerment triangle is a good companion to it, because it helps people grow out of getting stuck moving through the triangle over and over. It's also really helpful to understand what your preferred / most comfortable role is and how to keep from falling back into those habits.

I was never impressed by her comedy specials but her show Inside Amy Schumer has some incredible writing and performing. It won a Peabody and I understand why.

This is the first video I’ve seen on this subject that actually went in-depth on what white feminism is defined as, as well as the potential conflation from people only seeing the phrase w/o context. Great work as always, this was a very informative video for me!
as always, great episode, Matt. Maia is so great
Early in the video, idk if you'll touch on it, BUT one very important thing to note about Amy Schumer in her early career and first few specials as well as the roast of Charlie Sheen, she was dating fellow comedian Anthony Jeselnik, and her sort of edge, pacing, and delivery were VERY similar if not identical to her boyfriend, to an extent where it is believed but not confirmed that Anthony was actually writing much of her material. This definitely fits the joke thief narrative as well. Amy struggles when she has to be original, and has always needed someone else in order to be funny. It's in part why the movie trainwreck and her sketch show are funny: she has a mediator who can improve on concepts. She has delivery. She lacks inspiration.
This channel always features the greatest people to talk on these subjects Each guest is so well spoken and knows exactly what to say & it’s really refreshing
Hey Matt!!
I'm so happy Broey is on this pod. Huge fan of her essays!!!😊
Alexander Avila made en awesome video about the 'apolitical' figure that Taylor Swift intentionally creates.
If there's anything that Amy Schumer and mainstream medias representation of white feminism has taught me it's that their definition of feminism is to be incredibly healthy regardless of how you got their or who you had to pull the ladder from and be willing to defend the state department
