(grizzled elder voice) i've seen the best comedians of generations ruined by... well ruined by their own stupidity and unchecked bigotry but i've seen them make fools of themselves and tarnish widespread goodwill and respect held for them in exchange for a fleeting hit of culture war clout by making comeback comedy specials about how they're cancelled and no one is allowed to say anything anymore distributed on the top entertainment platform in the world

#alex talks #i just found out ellen made a new netflix comedy special LMAO this is a more general post than that more specifically abt the trend of #netflix comedy specials all called like 'cancelled?' that people hate and are like man this person used to genuinely be funny #but also im reading an article abt the special and it seems like it's all like her being oh i got kicked out of show business bc i was a #widdle mean u can't be mean in show business... they just hate someone breaking the status quo they kicked me out when i came outas gay too'#like ???? ppl wanted u to apologize bc u did bad things not not apologize and then come back and be like auuugh u all hate me no matter #what what do u want me to do when she didn't do anything #also article goes onto say she did not get kicked out of anything she still did high profile things after her show was cancelled 💀 so #fucking lame like i never watched her show not a big fan bc i wasn't old enough to see her as an icon but just so fucking lame
