      For those who haven’t been paying attention, all that Chelsea Handler can tweet about these days, apparently, are “jokes” that people are gay. (And, yes, I know it’s not new “comedy” for Jimmy, either. That he still does it is what’s surprising.)pic.twitter.com/WJtUh06djI

          Since it is so hard for people to understand, NO, I am not personally offended by such "jokes." I do, however, worry about the effect on young or closeted people when high-profile comedians on an open platform like Twitter or TV, repeatedly make being gay the punchline of jokes.

          Um, yes. Last year. Those were both on Friday, which is why I talked about them both on Friday. Those comments were discussed then.

          He's typical of the neoliberal shills on TV who feign compassion & progressivism while shaming & wagging their fingers at people who really *are* that. People like Kimmel, Colbert & Maher are out-of-touch neoliberal elitists protecting the status quo of our corrupt establishment.

          no, the joke is: the person being made fun of is a homophobic bigot who would hate it to be considered or compared to being gay. these jokes are punching up at bigots. I'm not here to knock anyone for finding the joke distasteful or offensive but lets understand

          The Trump Family is like the Manson Family...but without the laughs. You don't have to go gay. The 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Bates Motel gives you a lot of options.

          Being "in bed with" is the obvious implication. Why is this derogatory towards homosexuals?
