Did you get a job?

@StanGetz thoughts?

A programmer is a programmer in name only. Most of their time is spent in meetings.

f***ing tired of cancel culture and twitter nerds looking through people's history to get them fired. It happened with James Gunn, Kevin Hart, Trea Turner, Josh Hader and now Shane Gillis. Get a f***ing hobby instead of surfing through people's tweets and podcasts in order to try to get them fired. Smh. When did we as a nation get so f***ing soft and offended so easily? Everybody has to be woke as hell. Can't say this, or this group will get offended. Can't say that. It's f***ing PATHETIC. You know these people already want Louis CK cancelled and removed from history because of what he did a few times? Shit, he tries to do a comic spot now and people are going to be pissed as hell. Angry feminists "WELL LOUIS WAS IMMORAL IN THE PAST HE SHOULD NEVER WORK COMEDY SPOTS AGAIN" get a f***ing grip lady

bro, i know you have no real life experience, but it is in no way OK to pull out your c*ck and start stroking that sh*t like christmas dinner in front of women/men and subordinates. That is crazy inappropriate and 100% should be a fireable/cancelable offence.

I actually agree that people are too easily offended these days. I understand there's a time and place for insensitive and inappropriate commentary. But it's totally uncool and unreasonable to be OK with sexual assault in the work place. Put yourself in those peoples shoes... a person of power literally pulls it out and starts trying to cu-m on you. That's wildly messed up and should get you cancelled from life.

not necessarily saying he should never do comedy again; rather that I think it's appropriate for him to lose his overly privileged 1%er lifestyle and access to attention.

dude committed fairly prominent sexual assault on multiple women and subordinates - that's not cool or OK in any fashion.

i don't think his life should end. but you're out to lunch if you think it's no big deal and his platform should be handed right back to him because he said he's sorry. dude literally made jokes and skits about being a f***ing creep and made light of it for years before it came out he was actually doing that stuff. He was totally self-aware and is a huge piece of shit for following through with his actions.

I'M NOT SAYING IT'S OKAY FOR HIM TO SEXUALLY ASSAULT PEOPLE BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE SHOULD NEVER WORK AGAIN

HE PAID HIS PRICE AND MOVED ON. YET ANY TIME HE TRIES TO WORK NOW WOKE FEMINISTS PROTEST AND THINK HE SHOULD NEVER DO COMEDY AGAIN. That's the f***ing problem. Geez.

 

[LarryFisherman]

i understand this won't end well because you're incapable of rationalizing other peoples thoughts/opinions.

here are some bullets:

• i agree people are too sensitive
• people should mind their own business and not live scared and on-edge to ruin peoples lives
• nobody should be cancelled for making jokes
• sexual assault in any fashion, especially in the work place, in a place of power is never OK and should come with sever consequences

what price did he pay? he was embarrassed publicly for a few weeks? people like me who liked him before stopped watching/supporting him?

what did he have to do that was so repentant? Don't worry, I'll wait while you explain to me his tremendous sacrifices in the face of confirmed allegations.

What you don't understand is that he paid his price and apologized for his incidents. What part of that don't you understand. You think it's okay for feminists to continue protesting him and think he should never do comedy again. Do you really think that's right to cancel someone out of something they love and enjoy because they messed up in the past? He openly talked about it in his act and it was not a secret. Everyone sort of knew. Then when it became mainstream he apologized and disappeared. Now that he is doing comedy again feminists are extremely offended that he would dare re-emerge from hiding to pursue his interests. "How dare he do comedy again. That was the guy who assaulted women. He must not do comedy again. Heckle his ass."

Ffs. The criticism he got at S***kfest for doing a set there was hilarious. Luis J Gomez talks about how upset people were about him doing a set there and how they didn't want him there. So what. The guy is a comic legend. One of the best. His behavior was not excusable but he has learned.

So what do you want to happen to him? He should never do comedy again? He should fade away and pursue other interests?

Be real here.

 

[John Price]

The outrage is real.

Despite the praise he seemed to garner during his set on Saturday, his comedy comeback wasn't so welcomed on social media. See a few reactions to his surprise performance below.

"If Louis CK had ****ed off in front of someone without consent, then realized what he had done was shitty, attempted to make amends, and — and this is key — never done it again, I wouldn't have a problem with him!"

i feel like i addressed this already. i don't think it would be inappropriate for him to go back and work small clubs who will bring him in, and let him rebuild his life appropriately.

i don't think giving him the keys to his kingdom and full platform because he apologized is appropriate. dude needs to eat sh*t for a while and not fall back into the trappings that got him there in the first place.

i do think that compared to some of his other hollywood counterparts, his convictions and actions were fairly minor. He probably didn't destroy anyone's life like a Harvey W. or Woody Allen.

i'm just saying that sweeping it under the rug as "unfair treatment" is completely missing the larger point, which is that this stuff is going on everywhere in that industry (and in a larger world view too - this happens a lot) and letting it flow with little to no consequence (which i don't feel like he's had much of) is a crazy position.

i wouldn't be totally opposed to setting an example out of someone who doesn't ever have to work again to live a privileged and exotic lifestyle. that wouldn't upset me like it upsets you. that would hopefully detour others who are lesser-known and lesser privileged of making the same types of choices. But yeah, i think he needs to spend some time in the weeds, at least.

What are you talking about, dude? Are you really that dense?

he hid it for years. he only talked about it after he was caught and knew he had no recourse. that seems legit to you? take it from me, as someone who has had problems in the past (drugs) - you don't change because you're caught. You change because you recognize your flaws and are ready to make changes. "everyone sort of knew" is the dumbest thing i've ever read from you.

I'm not over here defending feminist protest either, but if I had to chose order of dubious and affecting precedence, I think letting the dude have his voice back on a full platform after a few weeks/months who was sexually assaulting people is worse than having some angry patchouli ladies outside your club. not like they were stopping him from doing his shit anyway.

really though, i feel like this won't go anywhere else. you'll continue to just yell at me instead of talking like a normal person.

s***kfest is not a huge gig like selling out MSG
