It’s something I struggle with. Some bad news comes out about some public persona doing something shitty and they get cancelled. But sometimes I really struggle with giving up the things they’ve made because I like them. There are also occasions where the person has been accused of something and it doesn’t seem true to me, or I think they’re genuinely sorry and have been punished enough, and the context isn’t being considered.
What do you think? Who do you feel conflicted about enjoying?
So he’s just a shithead asshole instead of a bigot? Pretty lateral move, honestly, if he doesn’t even believe in the bigotry he spreads.
He quit his show because bigots were using his material to laugh AT black people instead of WITH them. But he’s more than happy to change the butt if the joke so he can still feel good about the jokes he makes instead of having to be self reflective.
