      In this our year of the Lord 2018 we're still having conversations about whether women are funny or not? 🤦🏻‍♀️https://www.thecut.com/2018/05/david-letterman-netflix-tina-fey-interview.html …

      If your comedy show doesn't have a significant percentage of marginalized voices, not only people of colour and women and women of colour but queer folks, disabled folks etc, then you are missing out on incredibly rich, complex perspectives that would only make it better.

      Too many shows bring on token hires: just one woman or one person of colour on a team of otherwise white dudes and feel satisfied like they've fulfilled their "diversity quota" or whatever. And TBH those tend to be the most boring and unimaginative shows.

          To still hold the painfully false stance that women just aren't really that funny is biological determinism, the belief that men and women are born with different intellectual capacities, in this case humour, well, then, you are most definitely a moron.

          I also enjoy how you marginalize the experience of men, backing it up with racism and sexism, and are somehow still verified.

          Why is your argument to solve tokenism just 'even more tokenism' . Wouldn't it be better for everyone to just hire support based on their qualifications and hire actors to fit the story and if you don't like it make your own to fit your own views?

          So the answer is to hire more people based on their gender, enthnicity and sexuality rather than, you know, actually being good at the job? You're not too good at this whole business thing, are you?

          So True... and when the Token hire (who offten doesn't know they are the token until later in the game) tries to warn them that something is offensive... they get voted down...or not listened to...untill after a fuck-up gets some press....then everyone expects 1/2
