We know who the real snowflakes are. It's Trumpies.
Not a trumpie here, whatever the heck that is. I watched Michelle Wolf and she sucked, big time. Wasn't a single laugh to be had, just said a bunch of outrageous crap is all. If you're going to say outrageous stuff, better be funny doing it.

As gross as I found some of Wolf's comments to be I support her free speech rights to do it, that I will do.

Your opinion, my Dude.

Not as funny as Dave Chappelle, that's for sure. It was still funny AND conservatives went insane about it.

Those are the facts.

Conservative didn't like it because it sucked. LOL.

Michelle Wolf is a talentless hack. I watched every episode she had on Netflix desperate for some laughs and none were to be had. Granted that is my opinion.

You know what is also a fact? Since you like that word apparently, is that Netflix must have thought she sucked too because they ****canned her show.

You really missed that news cycle.
Personally, I remember the controversy, but not the name of the comedian involved. She crawled right back under the rock from which she came. I bet if you asked random people on the street if they knew who she was by name, almost everyone would say no.

No joke. He even goes as far as to claim if he was a pedophile, he would make sure McCullay Culkin was his first victim.

So, I take it, conservatives are okay with pedophilia being a joke, just as long as a Black comedian takes a jab at the homosexual communities?

Like, really, people think this guy is actually funny? I seen people try to compare him to George Carlin, and sorry, but George Carlin was genuinely funny and touched on real issues.
Because it was politically incorrect.

Saying that, I wasn't thrilled with the so called "pedo jokes", but the message I got really was that he finds the accusations against Michael Jackson absurd, so he made absurd (even if offensive) jokes about it.

That’s not the point though. The point isn’t who is famous or more famous or who is funnier (because nothing is more subjective than humor.)

The point is that the response to her, and Kathy Griffin for that matter, was HOW DARE YOU and now with Chappelle it’s “omg can’t you lib tards take a joke.”

I guess you didn't read my post. I said I don't find it funny on how he is trying to make pedophilia funny. There is nothing funny about suggesting a 10 year old who gets molested by a celebrity should be thrilled. And anyone who thinks this stuff is funny, is sick in the head!
