SNL Host Bill Burr Divides Fans After Controversial Monologue

Bill Burr didn't hold back in his controversial opening "Saturday Night Live" monologue.
Wearing a grey face covering, the 52-year-old comedian hosted the second episode of the season, using a portion of his monologue to criticize white women who "somehow hijacked the woke movement."
Burr described the "woke movement" as one revolving around "people of color not getting opportunities ... that they deserve." It was unclear whether he was explicitly referring to the Black Lives Matter movement amid the death of George Floyd after a white police officer kneeled on his neck.
USA Today (video included)
The monologue is in the article, its pretty funny. It was about what you would expect from Burr, who I like and think is funny.
There are tweets in the article showing what people had to say..
Anyone who watch a comedian and then gets offended is a fricking idiot. Part of what makes comedian funny is that there is always some truth to it. It usually comes from an experience or what's currently going on in the world..
to all these pussies.

I really would enjoy discussing this as I love Burr and this monologue, but it is an OweO thread and I refuse to engage.
I hope every one of your threads gets an anchor.

No one who is a Burr fan is divided. Only retarded journalists (and message board posters) give credence to what a bunch of tumblr exiled figs on Twitter have to say.

Most of the people I saw "outraged" on Twitter were woke white women trying to cancel him.
Which is pretty hilarious considering his monologue.

It wasn't even controversial. It's the same shite Bill's been doing for 20 years (I'm a fan, btw). Everything has just become so PC that when a real comedian doesn't hold back, people don't know what to do with themselves.

I watched and laughed my arse off. I also immediately thought "I have to go to twitter for this shite". Sure enough, I was not disappointed. Every 3rd white woman I came across was ready to "cancel" some Bill Burr (along with a few soy boys).

The best comedians are stand-up simplistic philosophers like Diogenes who highlight societal hypocrisy or absurdities. If you aren't making someone uncomfortable, then you aren't performing at the highest level possible.

Meh, i saw the opening and as soon as he started talking i knew the leftist offense mob would be hurling themselves at the feet of their cancel idol, trying to get Burr.
With leftists, expect leftist things.

Creating cognitive dissonance in 18-39 year old white women.

So what Bill Burr said in his monologue played out IRL after his monologue: white women hijacking being woke and getting offended after being called out. Well played, Bill Burr. Well played.
