Jesus. I'm not even going to watch that based on the title. So I guess with my first post I'd say he sorta flew towards that point of "Punch down, but don't be a giant POS about it" and the veered off when he saw a sign saying "Well, go ahead and be a giant POS about ______ 'cause it's easy and gets laughs" and decided "Well fuck yeah I don't have anything clever about them!"
Legit thanks for the heads up though. I'd known he'd veered off into just normal shitty offensive at times but hadn't quite thrown him off the "Well I guess they're not total shits" list.
Nah not at all, that wasn't to throw shade out there at either of you. Just to highlight it's not something relegated to a 2014 show. You often see Bill Burr passed around as one of the good ones in threads about Gervais and it confuses me because there's little difference. You can find a number of instances on-stage and off of him going off on how trans women are men. Still using his audience to crow about things that see us denied rights and put in danger. So I'll point it out when it pops up as it's just another log on the fire of male comedians having this weird issue with us.Damn, I wasn't trying to massage his image, apologies if that came off that way. I didn't know he's still on this shit because I haven't seen anything from him since he pitted black people against queer people when he hosted SNL.
