So this bit is basically white men are pretty much 100% responsible for the killing, enslaving, raping, and oppression of people of color, and theyve been doing all of these things to white women as well (minus the enslaving) for centuries, but Im going to focus on white women being complicit in all of this

Ive listened to/watched Bill Burr for years but the sexist undertones are a bit much. Even when hes bringing up a valid point like how white feminism glosses over the struggles of non-white women, he delivers it in a way that just seems to enable the worst sexist attitudes (as evidenced by all the comments Ive read from his fans in response to his material). People will say oh its just comedy but when comedy punches down it gives language to the oppressor. Just from personal experience as a brown person, theres not a lot you can do when someone shuts you down with an okay Apu or something. Its an instant dismissal of your voice and reduces you to a joke in seconds. Thats a lot of what Im seeing in the reactions to this bit.
