I notice with comedians and cancel culture, at least in regards to their shows, doesn’t make much of a difference and could actually benefit them. The people who “cancel” a comedian for something he said aren’t the people who were going to go see their show in the first place

Depends. Louis ck lost $15 million when his show and his next year of shows got cancelled. Aziz ansari’s entire career stopped.

Shane Gillis' story is a real lesson on loss. You could look at his situation and go "damn, you lost the job on SNL", but really he couldve entered one of 2 worlds; SNL mainstream bullshit or podcasting with joe rogan and theo and other legends! But when it all happened to Shane he probably thought it was the worst thing and everything would be over, whereas in my opinion he's made it out better than he would have if he had got the job! "This too shall pass"

What do you think SNL pays compared to a podcast appearance?

[@joshuarogue9345]

Its crazy, they had a left wing guy making right wingers laugh. I think he was bridging a gap, reminding ppl that we are ppl not right or left. And they were like nope, cant have this guy making both sides happy at the same time. I am a central to right winger, and I literally thought I pulled a muscle last night laughing at him. And he was burning the right, regardless he is hilarious and they messed up getting rid of him.
