That wasn’t my comment, and it obviously was just an arbitrary example.
but that doesn’t mean an old comedy show couldn’t be made today because of some sort of political correctness directive, it means modern audiences find new things funny because the comedy landscape changes.
If the issue were simply a different taste in comedy, people wouldn’t be up in arms about it, it would just be ignored, like many things that aren’t popular. If you want to deny that there is a tendency to comb through everything just to find something offensive to rage against, then the discussion is pointless.
People have been ‘up in arms’ about comedy not being like how it was when they were young my entire life.
You know what I used to hear when I was a kid? Complaints that George Carlin wasn’t funny like Don Rickles.
If you can’t even admit that woke culture tries to clean everything up and has exacerbated the issues then you’re simply in denial. It’s all around you, it’s on TV, it’s in comedy clubs, it’s in movies, it’s in universities. If you can’t even acknowledge that, it suggests to me that you can’t really argue with it, but rather need to act that it doesn’t exist.
I don’t admit that “woke culture” is a thing.
I know conservatives want it to be a thing, but it isn’t.
