Today's Commentary

Joel Haver - Hear Me Out


I have no sympathy for comics like Joe Rogan and Bill Maher when they spend any time at all bitchin' about "how sensitive everybody is" and how hard it is for them now when they run up against the cultural resistance to their style of humor.

Wanna know about censorship and the hazards of performing in an atmosphere of repression and narrow-mindedness? Ask Lenny Bruce or Redd Foxx or Mort Saul or or or.

Fighting restrictive norms and pushing the social envelope - that's what comics do, ya buncha fuckin' cry-babies. Get to work.
