I ain't white, and if I saw this, I wouldn't go. Racist/sexist/poor assholes running the joint. Just because someone works hard, is in a stable mental state, and was born with white skin, they shouldn't be discriminated against.

You have 40,000 posts and you don't realize LucasP is a jokester?
I blew his post off initially

Damn I've been on here in mobile too long, I forgot how awesome my sig pic was.
But you need to relax, kissing a guy isn't a difficult thing to do and if it saves you money then nobody will judge you. No need to make this a big thing.

Umm, because it was a pretty solid joke. You're taking this far too seriously.

Also, this is ingenious marketing. The chances I would have heard of this comedy show before this stunt was basically nil. Now they're being talked about all over the place. Regardless of their policy, I'm pretty confident they'll have a packed house for the event.

With all those special people inside, I'd imagine quite a few will get triggered. I would pay to watch the ensuing riot.

Great publicity stunt, but it is no more legal than if bakers in Oregon charged $300 for a straight wedding cake and $1300 for a lezz wedding cake.

That's absolutely hilarious.
People complaining missed the entire point. The festival prices themselves are part of the comedy
Great concept. It's funny as hell.

Chick Fil A and Starbucks "red cup" style marketing.

Notice that they didn't charge the minority LESS. They charged the straight white males MORE.

Scruffy supports their right to do this as long as all forms of the reverse are also acceptable.

Yep
Trump-style branding and marketing. Do/say something outrageous to draw attention and then reap the benefits many times over.

Not really, the fee is not for admission, is the application fee for being a performer.
The "discount" is for early bird application, but only minorities or LGBT folks can apply early. Straight white men can't apply early. Technically, a gay female person of color could be forced to pay the full comedian application fee if she/xe applied too late to be a performer.
But none of that matters because this is just a publicity stunt. Does it surprise anyone that she also has a Gofundme page. Angry comedians
eta: A gender based admission discrepancy would pretty clearly be illegal in NY.

To be fair, straight white men probably make the most money. They can afford it.
