Then why bring her up at all?
This is pretty thick coming from a person who thinks an Internet person just criticizing some common sexist tropes is the worst thing in the world and causes men to have to walk on eggshells. It's clear where you are coming from.
This isn't about "being controversial" being a big no-no in anyone's eyes. It's this particular "women make false rape accusations" shit that didn't have a single ounce of cleverness or insight into the topic in it. Louis CK is one of my favorite comedians and he handles controversial topics in controversial ways all the time and I have no trouble with any of it (that I've heard). But then again, even among his controversies, he hasn't said anything as idiotic as "I won't hire women because they'll just falsely accuse me of rape", at least not without something preseeding or following it giving it that required context or punchline that makes it funny (dark) humor.
Yes, I don't agree with Anita whatsoever and think she's a part of the problem with political correctness gone amok, but let's stay on topic.Your argument truly does boil down to Chris Rock tackling a particular subject matter in a way you personally didn't find appealing. Well, that's your own personal problem and doesn't speak ill to Chris Rock's joke in the slightest, you were just offended. And again, that's the point of being a comedian, taking on subject matter in a manner that will make some laugh and irritate others. There's nothing at all special about this particular subject matter other than it upsetting you in particular. This is how Chris Rock has always been, nothing changed with this joke he told.
Edit: The guy I'm replying to was the one who brought it up, I merely responded.
