No you're right, all comedians should face repercussions for their comedy. Lets start with Dave Chapelle, Trey Park, Matt Stoney, Daniel Tosh, and Seth McFarlane.

Imagine equating... whatever Crowder is doing here to jokes on stage by legitimate comedians. Especially people like Chappelle who stay away from pushing an agenda. Do you also want to bring back old b/w movies depicting black people as apes/savages if they were comedies?

I dont think Crowder is particularly funny at all to be honest, but is being bad at it grounds for being censored? Regarding old black and white movies, no I don't, but I'd also just say those were in poor taste and not funny as well, but where do you draw the line ?

My point wasn't about how funny he is/isn't (never been the primary issue anyway) but there's an obvious disparity in intended impact between a political commentary and stand-up comedian at the very basic level

Well the problem is, this line isn't as clear as you make it out to be. Comedians can and do make political statements as well.

Counterpoint: it's incredibly clear once you look at the impact of different statements ends up being and claiming otherwise is feigning ignorance
