    "Louis C.K.’s new set, per its leaked version, doesn’t merely punch down; it stomps, pettily, to the bottom," writes @MeganGarber. "None of it is smart or brave; it is simply cruel."http://on.theatln.tc/PmSQ05R

        If we can't criticize him, then he's the one who rules over us.

        Honestly, his jokes haven't changed. People have... and rapidly. What was once allowed (and semi-lauded) in 2015, is "absolutely impermissible" now. While I agree it's a cringy set to listen to, no one is forcing anyone to listen to it. Don't give it the undue attention.

        I feel real bad for what your experience with comedy must be like if "lol black people big dicks fag fag snowflakes and gay people tawk wiff a wisp" is legitimately funny to you. They're like... chicken crossing the road jokes at this point.

        Guys hate it when their asshole privlidges get revoked, so doubling down is typical.
