[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the first few minutes he says "Chappell Roan is blowing up like a Hezbollah pager". Does anyone else not find this extremely disrespectful to the humans harmed by the pagers (who were not just Hezbollah militants but innocent bystanders including children)?[/quote] He’s a comic, and jokes get a free pass…even if you find them distasteful. Why? Because context matters. It would be distasteful for an elected official to say that, but it’s not judged through the same lens when a comedian with a show focused on pushing the envelope on such issues says it. Trust me: nobody wants to live in a world where comics are silenced—particularly the ones focused on politics and pop culture. [/quote]
