    Or… the crowd is soft and cant handle basic critique from a comic. Would you guys be foaming at the mouth is a comic made fun of christians at christian event, and everyone booed? The answer is no, you would be saying how weak the christian were.

      Any community can be criticized, but the criticism should be coming from within. Eddie Izzard can make trans jokes, but Rob Schneider doesn’t have an interesting perspective to share. When Ricky Gervais roasted the audience of the 2020 Golden Globes, he did it as a fresh insider.

      Who’s “foaming at the mouth”? I’m cringing at how lame Rob Schneider is. I don’t want to be in the same room as him because I’ll get second hand embarrassment.

      Outsiders always have the most basic, over spoken take on shit. If you want a non political example, take every comedian who flies into to NJ to do a show in NYC and decides to make a joke about how bad NJ smells. While it true that they did smell something bad on the ride in, but that’s hardly representative of NJ.

        So I am not allowed to critique a group an organization with humor unless I am apart of it?

            Agreed! And that makes you lame, boring, and illogical.

            Just dont you dare ever make a joke about a religion you dont belong to, that would be super bad.

              You’re right. Child molestation isn’t a laughing matter. Hard mode, figure out which one I’m referring to.

              Are you suggesting religion and being trans are the same thing?

              Because that means you either think both are inherent or both are a choice. So which is it?

                  Ok, this is two comments up:

                  You’re allowed to do anything you want and I’m allowed to boo you for it.

                  Not sure why you wanted me to see that…
