Whatever. I don't like Asian racism. It doesn't get taken seriously enough in America so this is a good step I guess

Andrew Yang did say to forgive the guy though but whatever
As a fellow Asian, "I don't Forgive, or Forget!".

He's a marked man, and he better sleep with one eye open!

His name and face will be spread far and wide.

Why are you changing the topic?

If you want to forgive him, that's fine.

That's your personal choice.

I respect that.

But know this, me and the others who won't forgive him will put him on our list.

He's a marked man.

If no ones offended by your joke, it wasnt funny. Nowadays, just dont bother being funny. Comedies very context sensitive but everyones too sensitive to take any sort of joke.

Makes me want to put a "Hit" out on him for saying that kind of offensive material about my people.

If I ever see him IRL, he better watch his back, because I'd probably slit his throat for that kind of disparaging remark about my people.

That's pretty terrible...not gonna lie. That other guy was much worse though. That guy seemed to genuinely hate Chinese people while Shane is more like the guy who can be friends with a bunch of Asian people and joke about their race when he's with them.

Both of those guys are going to be marked and get repeatedly jumped randomly by us asian folks.

Don't be surprised if he ends up in random fights because he's outed himself to hate us "Asian Folks".

I give a LOT of leeway to comedians, especially when they're on radio / podcasts filling hours and hours... but that was uncomfortable. He was maybe 75% of the way to a full Michael Richards. It wasn't a screaming rage, but it came across as pretty real.

George Carlin sucks tbh. My brother loves him, I really don't get why.


Honestly, his stuff is good just for how it holds up politically today. Dude was ahead of his time In his time which means he was on time

I didn't find him very funny, entertaining though


Only about an hour and a half ahead by his own account.

Other than the racial slur and mimicking Asian accents then I'm not seeing what is so horrible. Mimicking accents seems really mild too.

Racial slur was really dumb though. Just an attempt at edgy humor that was cringe.

Do they have more of this guy being offensive? This can't be all that there was

Guy gets hired to be on SNL and make people laugh.

People hear about it and immediately start digging around to try and find a reason to bring him down.

Like seriously, why did nobody have a problem with him saying any of this before he was hired at SNL? I will tell you. Crabs in a barrel. It's his first big time gig, and that influences people to play Gotcha to try and drag him down. If anyone actually had a problem with him saying a racial slur, this would have already been on the news and shit. But it wasn't.

It only mattered to people as soon as they realized he was getting a big gig.

I am not a proponent of using slurs or a defender of it. But society is really showing their true colors in terms of what they actually value. And from what I can see nobody actually gives a shit that he said that. They only care that they can help drag him down. Probably because that is all so many people have to live for. Sad shit.
It only mattered to people once they heard of him, yes

when he was a nobody with a shit podcast, no one cared

Exactly. Just goes to show how much people care and how much it affected them.

Guy says some shit a few years ago. Nobody cares. Nobody is hurt. Life went on with no problems. Now it's suddenly an issue even though it's in the past where nobody was affected. Makes zero sense. We have got to stop hating everybody in our society. Hate doesn't make a better society in my opinion.

the nobodies you think weren't affected were minorities.
