Patrice gets a pass because he's black, same way Rock did.

Wow the author of that article is getting roasted by the commentators.

Look at some of these:

Quote:Stay away from campuses Seinfeld. You just can't win with my generation

Quote:What a jackass, in essence you have the freedom to say whatever you like just don't say something that might offend someone. After all "progressive" society isn't necessarily a free one.

Quote: can't understand how the author could have put finger to keyboard, written this letter, and not have felt horrific shame. In just a few predictable paragraphs he managed to prove Seinfeld's point.

Then to do a 180, and contradict himself at the very end stating that he and all students can take it. No you can't. You are young, weak minded, entitled, and paternalistic. You are everything Seinfeld was talking about.

It just completely warms my heart.

This dude has never seen Amy Shumers stand-up, which is different than her show (still not that funny). Her show is for mass TV consumption that has to pass through those FCC filters.

Plato had something to say about this:

Quote:And democracy has her own good, of which the insatiable desire brings her to dissolution?

What good?

Freedom, I replied; which, as they tell you in a democracy, is the glory of the State --and that therefore in a democracy alone will the freeman of nature deign to dwell.

Yes; the saying is in everybody's mouth.

I was going to observe, that the insatiable desire of this and the neglect of other things introduces the change in democracy, which occasions a demand for tyranny.

How so?

When a democracy which is thirsting for freedom has evil cupbearers presiding over the feast, and has drunk too deeply of the strong wine of freedom, then, unless her rulers are very amenable and give a plentiful draught, she calls them to account and punishes them, and says that they are cursed oligarchs.

Yes, he replied, a very common occurrence.

Yes, I said; and loyal citizens are insultingly termed by her slaves who hug their chains and men of naught; she would have subjects who are like rulers, and rulers who are like subjects: these are men after her own heart, whom she praises and honours both in private and public. Now, in such a State, can liberty have any limit?

Certainly not.

By degrees the anarchy finds a way into private houses, and ends by getting among the animals and infecting them.

How do you mean?

I mean that the father grows accustomed to descend to the level of his sons and to fear them, and the son is on a level with his father, he having no respect or reverence for either of his parents; and this is his freedom, and the metic is equal with the citizen and the citizen with the metic, and the stranger is quite as good as either...

And above all, I said, and as the result of all, see how sensitive the citizens become; they chafe impatiently at the least touch of authority and at length, as you know, they cease to care even for the laws, written or unwritten; they will have no one over them.

Yes, he said, I know it too well.

Such, my friend, I said, is the fair and glorious beginning out of which springs tyranny.

If these SJWs would do something productive like create better food yields, cure cancer, etc. Or create something people want and make lots of money and then they can guild giant free communes for everyone to live together.

But just the constant pot shots with nothing of note for their own accomplishments, just getting tiresome. All the while they are using electricity to constantly search social media and snark and drink overpriced coffees from beans imported from some poor third world country.

Holy Fuck! Come on.

Seinfeld's comedy by its own nature was meant to be about nothing. It never intended to have some meaning behind it. Period. This is also precisely the reason people enjoyed it, whether they found it funny or not.

It's for enjoyment, not deeper thought, not belly laughs.

When people are so full of themselves that they don't get that, I have no sympathy for them.

And it's Jerry Seinfeld! His jokes are some of the blandest in comedy.

"What's the deal with marriage? I was the best man at the wedding. If I’m the best man, why is she marrying him? I mean, who are...these...people?"

Salon just posted this :
10 Comedians on PC is killing comedy
http://tinyurl.com/pfastvk

Even if you're not a fan of the comedians themselves - what they have to say are some harsh truths:

Quote:“If you look at TV in the ‘70s versus TV now, and you see the things people said back in the day – they said the most off-colour stuff and nobody’s feelings were hurt. Do you know why? Because it’s about intent. The intent then was to make you laugh. And the intent is still to make you laugh, but they’ve drilled it in into your head that you’re not supposed to laugh at this.”

Quote:“Being outraged and upset and feeling bullied or offended are not only things we enjoy, they’re also things we have become thoroughly addicted to. When we can’t purposefully get our feelings hurt by a comedian, we usually find another, albeit less satisfying, source of indignation… I choose to believe that we are addicted to the rush of being offended, the idea of it, rather than believing we have become a nation of emasculated children whose only defense against an abyss of emotional agony is a trigger warning.”

Quote: “Imagine if the most brilliant comedians in history were working today. They’d never stop apologizing. Charlie Chaplin would have to apologize to all the homeless people he belittled with his Little Tramp character. W.C. Fields and Dean Martin would both have to apologize to alcoholics. The Marx brothers would have to apologize to Italians, mutes and uptight British ladies. Comedy has been around for a long, long time, and there have been a lot of impolite, unpleasant and jaw-droppingly politically incorrect jokes…. You went up there as a comic and joked about it all and nothing was off-limits. And to this day, nobody has died from a single joke.”

Yeah, like how Tracy Morgan got a pass. Or didn't.

Being black isn't enough anymore to escape the clutch of these nutjobs.

Another idiot just joined the White Knight choir, this time on CNN, saying "Jerry Seinfeld doesn't get political correctness":

http://edition.cnn.com/2015/06/10/opinio...-seinfeld/

Obviously the dude, named Dean Obeidallah, has no clue about how humor works. If you see his picture you understand why "humor" is not in his dictionary:



Obeidallah reminds me of the idiot sergeant who ditches Cronauer in Good Morning Vietnam where Cronauer is being replaced by his idiot superior who thinks he's funny.



One comment under the article hit the nail on the head:

$820 million dollars

Jerry Seinfeld's net worth is an estimated $820 million dollars. In second place, the world's second most successful actor is Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan — he's worth a cool $600 million. Tom Cruise brings his electric smile to the number three spot with an estimated net worth of $500 million.Jun 10, 2014

Regardless of how you feel about Bill Maher, he's right on point with this one.

That Bill Maher is now becoming a voice of reason is a testament to how spastically Western society as careened over the edge of common sense.

Bill Maher has been on the anti-SJW bandwagon for a while now actually. As dumb as he can be with feminist talking points at times he's pretty anti-SJW. SJWs hate him because of how unafraid he is to call out Islam or make gay jokes still. There was a controversy last year when he was supposed to give a convocation speech at Berkley and in typical SJW fashion there were petitions to ban him from campus because of his "Islamophobia and hate speech".
