But when it comes to comedians isn't this their usual schtick: they're grumpy, they're against everybody, gawd forbids they choose a political side (ok I know this doesn't include Maher) and they just shit and take less popular sides just so they can aggravate people. I mean look what Dave Chappelle said recently; or I watched little bit of new Bill Burr special and right away he has a shtick how he wishes to go to feminist meeting and yell derogatory stuff at women - I mean who would have this kind of need for real? He's just playing the annoying comedian schtick. And I also heard him mock fat people on like Conan o'Brien.
There are many thoughtful comedians, but there are definitely those that push the buttons for the sake of it. I try to remember that when I see a comedian completely fucking missing the point of the MeToo movement. I mean, they don't miss the point. They're just making jokes about it. Also, if you make fun of fat people in a way that's actually cleverly comedic, I'm still going to laugh. I'm a "no one's exempt" person when it comes to comedy. However . . . it has to be clever. You can't just shit on people to get a laugh. You've got to find a play on words or situations that makes me look at it in a humorous way. Let's take for example Andrew Dice Clay. He sucked. He wasn't clever. He was just loud, stupid and sexist.
