@@HuckFlynn Horseshoe theory is also a myth. You may want to keep that in mind. Yes, with centrists (aka liberals) being the most “anti-gun,” for lack of a better term, it leaves the other parts of the horseshoe to pick an answer in a binary… “Pro-2A” or “anti-2A.” Of course, the truth is less convenient than this - and the most sweeping anti-firearm legislation ever passed was the Mulford Act in California when Ronald Reagan was governor - because people typically are not monoliths unless they’re in groups (or on social media, which is more and more a groupthink setting, at the very least.) My experience is that people who are “easily offended” or “pro-censorship” tend to come from the strictest of all political movements - neoliberals and conservatives (if we even want to pretend they’re different anymore.) Liberals, as is par for the course, usually want to moderate the types of things that are socially acceptable or said informally. Whereas conservatives usually want to mandate what can or cannot be said or done under penalty of law. If you know a single leftist (mind you, not *liberal* but an actual socialist, communist or anarchist) who wants anything even approaching a flag-burning amendment, a book ban or a limitation on the use of recording equipment to monitor police and justice system officials, I’d love to hear about it. Personally, I fall somewhere between the latter two of the three types of leftists I mentioned. As are most of the people I associate with in a political realm. I don’t think I know a single leftist who supports *anything* like that.

Well to be fair it still had to be explained that nobody canceled Kevin Hart for his joke, they just asked him if him making this repeated joke was a sign of his beliefs. He then canceled himself from hosting the oscars because for some reason he didnt want to tell everyone that the jokes arent serious and he would never actually beat his son for being gay. Thats all he had to do, but the reactionaries blamed it on “cancel culture” because thats easier than accepting that your favorite comedian might be a homophobe.

Jokes usually hit on our pain points & stressors too. We laugh, because laughter is a release of stress. It's therapeutic. And we usually laugh either because "it's true, it's so true!" (because if we didn't laugh, we'd have to cry), or because a comedian took a common point and exaggerated it to the point of ridiculousness, to mock something else being ridiculous. I've always said laughter is healing. If we can laugh at e.g. racism, that means it's behind us, in the rearview mirror, and only getting further away. But if we can't laugh at it... that must mean it's a serious problem, and getting worse, which means we're regressing as a society.

I like to use that as an example: if we're a gang of friends, of bros, and we had 1 guy in a wheelchair in the team, how would he feel if everybody all cracked jokes at each other's expense, except him? He'd probably feel EXCLUDED, right? Because that's exactly what you're doing, excluding him from the fun, because of some warped idea that "they can't handle it." Ask him yourself, I bet he'll say, "I hang out with you guys all the time, and your lame dick & fart jokes, and you think I can't handle one coming my way? Try me." Society needs to learn (again) there's a difference between making a joke about someone or something, vs. mocking directly. Stephen Hawking was a world famous figure, loved and respected. And plenty of jokes were made "about" him. (My favorite is the ERB video with him rap battling Einstein). But I think the pearl-clutchers fail to realize, none of the jokes were "LOL look at him, he's in a wheelchair". Because that's not funny. What's funny is accepting him for all he is, his achievements and his condition, and still making jokes about it regardless. It's true equality.

On the campus of Swarthmore College, while visiting my brother, and attending Alumni weekend with my Dad. My brother had a radio show on campus where he played the Blues, and highlighted the impact and artistry of African American music on all music created here in the U S of A. Sounds pretty woke to me. Facepalm. Racism certainly needs to continued to be talked about, especially since the right has been using it as a major plank in their campaigns the last 2 decades.

But it was being fought in a good way. You saw media of good characters who happen to be black or gay or whatever. Now, that they're black or gay is their character and it's both it's own kind of racism (tokenism and reducing someone to arbitrary characteristics) and grifting. Look at BLM, it's a literal grift that's now being investigated but if anyone criticized it, they'd be automatically called racist. This breeds dissent as A) it posits that everyone forgets that racism is bad if they're not browbeat about it constantly and B) the people who were doing the browbeating turned out to be just as bad and as corrupt, if not more so than the very people they were criticizing. All of this race hustling has done nothing but set back integration of minorities by years if not decades and it's largely the left doing it.

They want to live in Utopia. Problem is, the word "utopia" literally means "a nonexistent place."

"Self-censorship, the worst kind of all" So true

No. The human brains have exactly a department for self-censorship. It's called the frontal lobes. Without these, a person can be as barbaric as he could be and will jump into the next impulse without calculating the costs. Studies have shown that series killers and especially bull-dog-type psychopaths don't have developed frontal lobes like an average person does. So no, if self-censorship is the worst kind of all, why does the human body have a mechanism for it? Yes, I do talk about censoring in all forms, actions, words and thoughts, the frontal lobes do that. There's nothing wrong with self-censorship in itself. With almost everything it's only bad when it's an extreme. Stop parroting something someone said just because it hypes you in the moment.

Now see. The civilian conservatives that no one pays to tell jokes because they aren't funny who've glommed onto comedians because they want to say whatever they please to troll whomever they want are riding Bill's jock in this moment... But they were all calling for the cancelation of Kathy Griffin for her piece about Trump. She also still gets work now. See "Cancel culture" has never a solely leftist, "woke" affliction. And it's never really been a thing in the first place. But this isn't the current narrative. Everyone is suckling at the "We're too sensitive" teat. Up to me and people with brains to be the kid in the Emperor's New Clothes. As usual

It's called respect for another's feelings or "empathy". Shakespeare said it this way "He jests at scars that never felt a wound."

There has only been one time I've been offended by a joke and it wasn't even from a comedian. It was a meme on Facebook. It was something along the lines "The look you give your kids when they're acting up." with a picture of Chris Benoit.

THANK YOU BILL for all THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID !!!

I didn't know that if your feelings got hurt by another person, you're entitled to a free assault and battery towards that person. I've been wasting all this time learning and practicing how to control my emotions so that I wouldn't do things that I would regret. I didn't know that people are supposed to gladly accept whatever brutal beatdown I impose upon them whenever I think that they might be the reason why my feelings are hurt.

When you attend a comedy show or watch one it's not personal. It's not about you. It's what comedians do, some better or worse than others. If you are offended, watch something or someone else. It's actually that simple.

Its also good to point out that its entirely unclear whether someone's feelings will get hurt if you say something, both to you and that person, so the alternative would be to not take any risks and try to do anything funny...In a comedy show

What tf would comics like Carlin, Richard Pryor, Redd Foxx, Rodney Dangerfield, Joan Rivers, Don Rickles, etc, do today?!! It seems we may have been deprived of a lot of brilliant humor.

I am 70 years old, and I once was a coal miner. Everyone should get to work two or three years in a coal mine, right after high school. The experience would toughen them up, both physically and mentally. It would also give them a chance to get blackface out of their systems.

"Wait for the laughter to die down to say that wasn't funny"...so true!

Humor is all we have left, leave it alone! I remember the day when a comedian would poke fun at everyone, I always waited for the Italian jokes and actually felt left out if there wasn’t any! What happened to the days when we laughed at ourselves and weren’t ashamed of our ethnic differences we embraced them and laughed!

Thank God that someone brings this BS to light. That's why I love that Bill Maher has the voice to call out people. I haven't been to the movie theaters in years. I could care less about any award show.
