This time, on the bullshit from comedians about "being cancelled":
On the topic of censorship, Swisher naturally asked Idle if he had any thoughts on Dave Chappelle’s constant claims that he is being silenced while getting paid $24 million per special to complain about how canceled he is. Said Idle, “Where does he say it? On SNL … Well, you’re not being that much canceled, are you? If you were in your room complaining, I’d have a lot more sympathy.”
"But Xmastime", you say in the voice of Craig “Ironhead” Heyward from those soap commercials (RIP), “didn't you point this out months ago, therein making you a comedy genius right alongside Eric Idle?"
Sigh. Yes I did faithful readers, YES I DID:
this whole "comedians getting canceled" thing would be easier to take seriously if we weren't constantly being told comedians are being cancelled by someone other than the "cancelled" comedians themselves.
