Oh please. I'm not a bad person. But surely you must know that comedians joke about every possible subject and quite inappropriately. That is literally what they do and nothing will stop it.

Usually the "free speech" people prefer comedians to get their social sanctioning by realizing that nobody thinks it's funny. That is exactly why the expression "Too Soon" exists.

Hope this makes you feel better. If not, I tried.

Not PP you replied to, but I think there a lot of nuance you've left out. Saying Good after she was killed is just never going to be acceptable. I enjoy a lot of late night comedian shows, and out there humor, but being happy that a random person is dead is never OK. If it was a polarizing President who died, Biden or Trump, then yes, it would be OK for part of the electorate to be happy about it and joke in that way. But someone who hasn't done much of anything? Not really.

The line can get really fine sometimes. But I think he crossed it, and there's no "too soon" about it. This is a mistake a lot of inexperienced or bad comedians do, either because they genuinely don't see the line, or because they deliberately want attention, even negative attention. You don't hear the famous, successful comedians making that sort of mistake - they didn't make that sort of joke about Charlie Kirk, for example.

I don't think that's true? It's never okay to celebrate someone dying.

I don't like Trump and never voted for him. But when he dies he won't see people laughing about it...his kids will. They are horrible people but they do love their dad.

PP you replied to. Oh, I assure you that when Trump dies, some people will be dancing in the street, and a lot of jokes and crude humor will come out of the woodwork. He's been rather traumatizing for a large swathe of the electorate. And given his propensity to chaos and destruction, I think the jokes will be on point. If some rightwing comedians makes jokes about Biden's demise, I think those would be fair game too.

Politicians are public figures. Renee Good was not a public figure. Maybe that's the difference I'm driving at.

Give it a minute, he’ll probably actually get killed like the Tesla arson maniacs

I think what happened is people heard the terrible joke and then went and listened to some of his comedy and then canceled going and the venue was like we’re gonna lose money so we’re canceling all his nights.

This is capitalism at its best. Are you saying you’re against capitalism?

What does this even mean?

And no, you can read the article. The venue said they were concerned about protests and safety. Only reason they canceled.

This is how stand-up comedy works. The unfunny ones are weeded out and booed offstage.

What? Your tired of capitalism?

I’ve listened to his comedy and he compares having a late term abortion because your baby doesn’t have a heart to having a late term abortion because you find out your baby is trans.

Oh yes you are you are MAGA crap.

There is no joking about an American dying because of a wanna be Dictatorship NAZI Gestapo leader.

https://people.com/ben-bankas-reacts-6-comedy-shows-canceled-after-he-mocked-renee-good-11896858

Never heard of this guy before but wow, sounds like a real charmer:

A comedy club in Minnesota canceled six sold-out shows featuring comedian Ben Bankas over jokes he made about the late Renee Good.

The cancellations come after Bankas shared a clip from a show in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., several days after Good, a mom of three, was fatally shot by an ICE agent on Jan. 7.

In the video, shared to Instagram on Jan. 13, Bankas says, “Her last name was Good. That’s what I said after they shot her,” while also referring to Good’s wife as a “dog” and calling Good “r etarded.”

The comedy club owner basically said that the shows were only canceled because he was concerned about protests and safety of customers, not that he found the "comedy" appalling.
