Steve Harvey - "Political correctness has killed comedy".

Steve Harvey has no plans for another stand-up comedy special due to cancel culture.
"The only way I can do one more special is if it's at the end of my television career because it will end my television career," Harvey told media on Tuesday during the TCA panel for his ABC series, Judge Steve Harvey airing Tuesday nights at 8 p.m.
quote:
"We're in the cancel culture now. No stand-up alive that is sponsor-driven can say anything he wants to. Chris Rock can't. Kevin Hart can't. Cedric the Entertainer can't. D.L. Hughley can't. I can go down the list. The only person that can say what they want to say on stage is Dave Chappelle because he's not sponsor-driven, he's subscription-driven."
quote:
He continued, "One of the reasons I stopped doing stand-up is because my wife told me was about to do something for me that I didn't know about yet. I didn't I didn't know he was going to give me this TV career, but he did. And it turned out to be the best thing that happened to me. But if I had tried to continue as a stand-up, there's no way I could maintain a TV career because political correctness has killed comedy."

Assuming the list is only black comedians.

Comedy is still going strong if you know where to look
Does he still deny the existence of dinosaurs?

He won't speak up about who is responsible for the cancel culture movement, though.

We asked a hundred people: name something that will make people laugh when someone answers with penis.

Steve Harvey is a liberal and liberal supporter. He’s the problem.

Quit backing idiotic Left Mr Harvey.

When was the last time Ced and D.L. had endorsements or were mentioned in the same paragraph with Rock, Hart, and Chappelle? Steve is trying to throw the original kings a bone
Posted on 1/11/22 at 4:27 pm to Cs
Just like he killed Family Feud
Posted on 1/11/22 at 4:31 pm to Cs
We asked 100 people, name a comedian who can’t do comedy any more.
“Bob Saget?”
*insert Steve Harvey shocked face*

That's coming from the racist Steve Harvey is

Sounds like career comedians should follow the subscription route and tell sponsors to frick off

He has a point. All it takes is for people to not understand the meaning behind what you are saying and you get into hot water.
Dave Chappelle. I have to wonder how many of the trannies who are all up in arms about his last special actually watched AND listened to it.
He makes a whole point about how that LBGQ community hurts its own people and how his friend, who was trans, killed herself and it is believed to be a result from the heat she took for opening up for Chappelle, etc.
That group is probably the worst and you know older comedians (Im talking 60 yrs old +) are not fully "woke" to today's culture in general. And even though I am sure they keep up with the times, they are more likely to talk about it different.
During Steve Harvey's prime, it was a completely different world when it came to trans and gay people. Sort of like your grandparents. They say certain things without a second thought. Its their normal and you can tell them all day long that its not acceptable to say such and such.. And they don't give a single frick, which makes it even more funny...
Then you have your boy.. What's his name? Pat Oswalt? Dude apologized to the trans community for posting a picture of him and Chappelle. Well I don't know if he apologized but he sure felt the need to explain it.

Comedy requires zero or at least very wide margins.
It’s the one element in a society that forces us to look at ourselves less seriously and hopefully laugh.
The lib pc crowd takes itself way to seriously so they kill the ability to poke fun since that could mean some offending someone who is getting offended on purpose since we actually have a choice to be offended or not.
The plaintiff mentality has gotten out of hand though. Words will be off limits. Thoughts will be punishable.
When jerry Seinfeld gets boo’d at a college gig, you know something is out of whack
