I mean,..c'mon,...they do Trump, Boris, Cruz,..the crazy look, her hair. It would seem a natural if it wasn't so politically bias. The mobs, looting. There are plenty of jokes to be had.

They fear the wrath of the cancel mob,..lol. like Big time.
If SNL was actually funny and edgy, they would have Trump on impersonating Alec Baldwin now.......

I think everyone is targeted by it, no matter color or creed.


It's all about keeping "racism" and "hate" as a part of the national dialogue.


It's about division and cultural Marxism.


I mean, look at Jussie Smollet, the Covington Kids, the NASCAR driver who thought there was a "noose" etc.


The supply clearly doesn't meet the Demand, so they are going to keep artificially pumping it into society's veins in an attempt to keep us all at each other's throats.


Fortunately, I don't think it's working except with the Extreme Left.


Unfortunately, for now, they hold the levers of culture and government - so they'll keep on trying.

The basis of the skit could have been funny, but they had to make sure that they started it off with something that the "woke" could all latch on to as they think it's pervasive through society, ie racism and sexism. That is the issue with SNL. They view their audience as only being the woke, and something as obvious and easy as the Smollet case they just pass over because it hits to close to home for some of their perceived base.....by proving a point that many accusations of racial bias and "hate" crimes are hoaxes or exaggerations. The Albany bus incident, Nick Sandmann in addition.

So basically you guys are feeling attacked because SNL created a skit of a generic old white lady who is racist. I guess if the shoe fits.

So basically you want to pretend that our pop culture isn't already overflowing with this nonsense, and that it's propaganda meant to divide and distract.


Context is a thing.

I haven't watched the skit(and won't watch it) but going by the description it sounds more venomous than humorous. Like there is real malice behind the premise of the sketch. I don't get how a decent human being derives pleasure from such things.

She was more insane than racist. The skit was hilarious, and had nothing to do with being "woke" or with targeting anyone.

So, your logic is that if you insult a group of people with a racist stereotype that if they don't like it, they're racist.

Oh come on now, racist and disowning family for voting for that woman in the last presidential election....lol....and nobody was targeted.

It's fine, it's a comedy show and their audience is typically younger and democrats...there are plenty of other media out there for the right audiences.

But to claim it was just comedy involving a crazy lady is not being honest.
