louis ck fans hate trans people so much they're defending "jokes" that sounded like a botnik keyboard trained on local news comments
he could've gone up on stage and just said the n-word 200 times and then walked off and dudes would be term-searching his name on twitter and being like "he killed it"
it's the "i was at woodstock" of dudes who shouldn't be left alone with children
don't get me wrong, being funny wouldn't make it worth having this guy continue in a business that lets him just get away with him being a sexual predator! but he's also not telling jokes.
"kids these days with their pronouns! fuck them! and fuck the ones that tried to make something good come out of being put through something deeply traumatic as teenagers in particular!" thanks, 12 year old on 4chan
you know that thing that film people talk about where they say that comedies have the same beats as horror? this is like if an entire horror movie was literally 100% jumpscares
the closest thing to a joke in any of these old shitty dude's "comedy" is just making people laugh because they're happy to be in a safe space where they are pretty sure no one will tell them they're wrong for being, fundamentally, bad people
louis ck's audience is so gleeful about having a chance to cheer on a sexual predator doing a rant that's indistinguishable from the racist ex-coworker you had to block on facebook that they literally no longer have any standards
this is the case, by the way, with basically all reactionary media! it's all like this! this is why fox news looks so amateurish, why breitbart and the federalist are so badly edited, why ross douthat has the rhetorical skills of an average 10th grader
if you have a platform already and you're willing to use that platform to go in front of a bunch of people and say "you know what's good, actually? rape! of women! love that rape!" you can literally just do that and live off the gofundmes when you get fired
it's not just that it doesn't have to adhere to any standards of human morality or decency, it's that as long as your message is "fuck trans kids" people will line up in the rain to give you their paycheck
you don't even have to have the basic handle on execution required to tell a fart joke to six year olds. you just need access to a stage and a bunch of minorities to hate
as long as you're a cishet white dude without any visible disabilities, you've got it made at that point. (some people who aren't cishet white dudes are also allowed to do this but only on the condition that they can be thrown under the bus for points at any time)
bunch of fucking dudes eating dogshit and not only paying for seconds but looking for people who said "hey, you know that's dogshit, right? like, it's shit from a dog's butt?" to call ugly and/or hysterical
"eating dogshit is not only unappealing to me personally, but i also am uninterested in getting the diseases that dogshit carries" "well, you're an ugly bitch who should get raped"
and then they try to send death threats to your mom and/or get you fired or whatever
but it's the sjws that need a safe space, right, not the thousand dudes with completely indistinguishable twitter feeds who are mad that people said the non-joke comedy bigot hour that only exists to make people feel comforted that they are surrounded by fellow transphobes sucked
