Political Question Why are Shane Gillis fans so sensitive?

This really pissed off a lot of his fans in another group where I posted it.

I was raised with Chappelle show and South Park it takes an entirely new offensive to get any type of rise out of me.

I think the issue is with nuance. Chapelle show and south park had some genuinely smart writing. Everything Ive seen from Shane just seems crude for the sake of being crude. Kind of like Amy schumer, or that one kid who keeps disrupting class for attention

It had social commentary. This is some guy going “huh?” and mugging his punch lines. The snl sub is hilarious right now. Shane is going to have to lay low in East Timor for a bit, hopefully. There are great comedians that lose out to these manosphere adjacent twat waffles.

I'm glad he said Fuck on air. Lorne has an unreasonable hardon for the guy but is famous about Fuck. Maybe it'll snap him out of whatever need he has to keep him hanging around
