I’m going to guess that he was either on the “cultural appropriation isn’t a real thing” track or the “ cultural appropriation is real but I don’t give a fuck about it” path.

Yes, crowder is a right wing comedian and commentator (?) I do not watch his show, however it is safe to assume he does not accept the notion of cultural appropriation as it is formulated by progressives.

Right. And that’s key because shock humor absolutely can be funny but it needs at least one of two things: an unexpected twist, or an unexpected source.

Or absurd humor hinging on offensiveness, if you don’t want the word “shock” here.

Now obviously there’s no twist here, no surprise spin on the stereotype. And as for source, if he were opposed to cultural appropriation then there could be some decent juxtaposition or self-deprecating humor at work here.

But his usual audience know upon seeing the title of the video that he’s not about to be a beacon of sensitivity, and he knows they know. So there’s no surprise twist and no surprise source.

Anyway, If you have to explain a joke there really is no way it can be funny to the person receiving the explanation, nor are these small gags making me shoot pure aryan milk out of my nose. That said, his british man impression made me chuckle a bitpic.twitter.com/TiYGevi8m5
